Fizz 986 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) #fizzgrid Fizzgrid™ Technology is off the boat and on store shelves now! Fizzgrid™ Technology is fully play tested and *guaranteed bug free! *Not actually a guarantee Here are some example Fizzgrids™ for you to copy/paste in your rules questions: The popular 5x5: [_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_] Powered by Fizzgrid™ Technology The hallway: [_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_] Powered by Fizzgrid™ Technology Due to a change in the boards, to keep the correct font while pasting, you need to make a slight change to your reply options.1) In the reply field, click the gear icon shown below: 2) Then, uncheck "Paste as plain text by default", and click "OK". 3) Hit F5 to refresh your screen and the setting will become the default setting. Note: after a Fizzgrid™ paste, the font will change to "Courier New Bold" for the remainder of the reply. You can switch this back to "Arial" and uncheck the "bold" box to revert to the default font. ----------------------------------- Fizzgrid™ Technology FAQ: ----------------------------------- Q) What is Fizzgrid™ Technology? A) Fizzgrid™ Technology is an grid system using the courier bold font for monospace format which normalizes placing of text. This allows for more accurate representation of map based systems and is very easy to read!Q) How much does Fizzgrid™ Technology cost? Is there a monthly fee? A) Fizzgrid™ is free to the public, as payment for all the future shenanigans I plan on pulling here in the forums. I am sure that in a few months, you'll be begging me to shut the hell up. Q) How do I use Fizzgrid™ Technology? A) Easy! Just copy/paste the grid and you're on your way! Replace the underscores with other characters to represent figures, objects, targets, whatever. Make sure you note what things represent. Oh, and don't forget to put "Powered by Fizzgrid™ Technology" at the bottom! Q) Do I have to put "Powered by Fizzgrid™ Technology" at the bottom if I use Fizzgrid™? A) YES! ABSOLUTELY! If you don't, I will give important game breaking secrets to your campaign's Empire player. Don't ask how I will do this, I have my ways. Trust me. Q) You're full of crap, Fizz. How will you do this? A) Don't ask. I have my ways. Trust me.Q) But I am an Empire player! So screw you, Fizz. I'm not putting it on there. What do you have to say about that? A) Fine, I'll talk to your Rebel players then. How do you like them apples?Q) What if I don't like "them apples"? A) Then you should put "Powered by Fizzgrid™ Technology" at the bottom whenever you use it. Q) Will there be updates or expansion packs for Fizzgrid™ Technology? A) Yes. the 10x10 Fizzgrid™ is on the boat and is expected to arrive Q1 2015! The boys in the lab are hard at work on additional Fizzgrids™, we'll announce more Soon™. Q) Can I make my own custom Fizzgrids™? A) Absolutely! You need a 4x9 hallway? Fizzgrid™ Technology can do that! Just requires more copy/paste actions. Q) Does Fizzgrid™ Technology work on Mac or Linux? A) Maybe? I dunno, sure, why not?

Imperial Advisor Arem Heshvaun 9,498 Posted February 17, 2015 What's the scale of Fizzgrid™ Technology? Can I use my old 1980 Ral Partha miniatures for pretend online simulations with them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alarmed 257 Posted February 18, 2015 What's the scale of Fizzgrid™ Technology? Can I use my old 1980 Ral Partha miniatures for pretend online simulations with them? Related to this question: Is a "sticky" FizzgridTM Technology in the works? When I put my miniatures on the screen, they tend to slide off. This makes it much harder to use this wonderful invention.

Fizz 986 Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) What's the scale of Fizzgrid™ Technology? Can I use my old 1980 Ral Partha miniatures for pretend online simulations with them? The scale is 1 Fizzgrid™ Technology "square" = 1 square...unless it doesn't equal that. Then it equals something else. As for the miniature not sticking to the screen, I'll send that down to the boys in the lab, see if they can recreate this issue and get back to you.

Fizz 986 Posted February 23, 2015 The boys in the lab have come up with a solution for your models sliding off the screen. All you have to do is adjust the screen so that it lays flat on the horizontal plane instead of the standard upright vertical plane. In most lab tests, this allows the models to stay in place whilst using Fizzgrid™ Technology. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alarmed 257 Posted February 23, 2015 I'm not sure that will work... I'm using a CRT monitor and if I place it so the screen is horizontal, it might roll off the table! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fizz 986 Posted March 11, 2015 (edited) Can Fizzgrid help me figure out why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch? Not yet. Our boys in the lab are still working on how to get Lucky his Lucky Charms back. We'll add that to the list after we pick up Tony the Tiger from the hospital, he's finally out of that diabetic coma. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Tony's family.
