Known Issues

• Effects which modify a -127 No Ability stat will simply modify that stat from the -127 value
• Variant casters is still a work in progress
• 5e casters are not using 5e rules for casting

• AC types are wonky for some reason. Will fix this up in .23
• Improved Init is not showing the correct bonus on the creature sheet yet.
• "I trust my players" option on the GM panel does not yet apply to feature decisions (new spells, abilities, etc)
• When a GM cancels a decision from a player which uses a template, the map is not auto-pushed to the player yet -- GM has to push to player to clear template; or when someone moves.
• UI for 1 round effects while out of combat is unclear -- need to figure out a nicer way to handle this
• RESTing for features is only working for traits.

• Added System properties call to the D20 initializer to automatically use openGL and disable Direct2D. The reason for this is to enhance alpha blending for shadow casting and fog of war.

• Updated JRE to 8 101

v3.6.7.8 (BETA)

• Fix for incorrect import of previous version "ability scores"
• Updated "mini view" to reflect modified "ability scores". prepends an "*"

v3.6.7.2 - 3.6.7.7 (BETA)

• Behind the scenes prep for Feature Library and Plugable Rules API
• GenCon (2016) specific updates to allow for limited 5e access (disabled in production)
• Speed improvements to the Shadowcasting system -- current solution is to turn off alpha blended fog of war regions when not in FoW mode.
• Updated dice mechanic to move from gaussian to uniform distribution.
• Removed Game System toggle from release candidate
• Added "Show Inspiration", "Show Death Saves" options to options panel
• Updated "Character Sheet" to streamline system switching -- stop gap until we have our HTML sheets system live.
• Fixed "Ability" and "Save" entries in "Character Sheet" to allow for editing of "Base" and "Mod" values.
• Updated "Skill", "Attack" and "Ability Check" Handlers to use the right math since "Base" and "Mod" are now tracked independently.

• Fixed "Mini" view rendering of stats. Modified values are now shown for "Abilities" and "Saves"

• Notes on new manual overrides for Abilities and Saves (3.5, Pathfinder and 4e) -- The math for each is listed below:

Save = Base + Stat Mod + Class Mod + Mods Ability = Base + Mods

For Saves, Base is zero by default. Changing this value will cause a permanent increase in the specific Save. Spells, Items, and Tomes are common sources for this kind of enhancement.

Saves are otherwise calculated when accessed based on Stats, Classes, and Effects (Misc Mods).

For Abilities, Base is the default score. The Modifier adds points to the base score to create the effective score. This new score is then used for all features in the system.

Be aware that a special ability or spell can clear manual updates to Modifiers. As we refine this system further, the manual entries will be tracked independently from the active effects.

Be aware The Beta release does not have the full classes files defined for 3.5, 4e, and Pathfinder. We'll be working on the data entry for these during the Beta period.

Known Issues

v3.6.6 (Release)

• Added an option to auto-launch the Library Window on application start (GM only)

v3.6.5.8 (BETA)

• internal QA test build

3.6.5.7 (BETA)

• feature locked

BUG FIXES v3.6.5.7 (BETA)

• Fixed UI bug regarding wrong icon for show/hide on "Map Markers"

• Fixed issue with null values for colors causing app to hang

• fixed open region draw issues

v3.6.5.6 (BETA)

• Updated Light Mode view to include "Duplicate" and "Preset" selection on light creation

• Updated "Open" polygon regions to auto unwind on "Apply". This automates the reverse trace process for "Region" creation when building "Open" regions. Technically, these objects are not truly "Open" as the unwind process closes the object back at the origin after stepping through the knot order

• Expanded the "Light" capabilities to include a "Use Gradient" option. When enabled on a given "Light", a "Gradient" is displayed within the shadow cast polygon shape.

BUG FIXES v3.6.5 (BETA)

• Fixed a bug which prevented map export from functioning. This was caused by a failure to properly encode the map graphic before processing the export.

• Fixed a bug where lights would shine through Wall objects when the wall intersected the exact center of the light source. This is more of a hack/fix than a true bug fix. For now, a light is considered occluded if the center node is intersected by a Region edge by an offset which is a function of the token size. The down-side is lights will be disabled for the token if too much of the token is within the offending square.

NOTE: As we unattach tokens from the grid, this may become less of an issue.

v3.6.4 (BETA)

CHANGES

• Updated Game Tools menu Look and Feel (LAF)

• Reorganized the tab menu

• Renamed Easy to Easy FOW and Mold was changed back to Manipulate

• Added initial classes and handlers for card decks currently there is no user access to this feature

BUG FIXES v3.6.4 (BETA)

• Corrected a bug which effected lights intersecting with a fog of war region at exactly 45-degree angles (through the middle of the light).

  The current work-a-round treats lights which fall into this condition as if they were contained in the region -- for Walls, this means the light is disabled. A simple map based fix is to edit the offending region and move the segment one pixel away from the area where a players light should be able to be cast, such as a thin hallway.

KNOWN ISSUES v3.6.4 (BETA)

• Dice Results area of Core Dice does not display any content
• Issues involving using the creature context menu Lights->Clear feature. While the lights are cleared for the current map context, if the creature is moved to another map, they will appear with even more lights attached. Work around for the time being is to use the Game Tools->Lights tab to remove lights from creatures

v3.6.3 (BETA)

• Expanded Language Support (Part 2) Fixed language support to properly sort between older non UTF-8 formats and updated UTF-8 formats. Added ability to set a User Font and Game Log Font separately. Both the can be accessed from Options -> General then click Set User Font or Set Game Log Font

• Game Tools Panel Changes Renamed Manipulate to Mold Added Lights to the Advanced Fog of War Mode Added Door (H) and Door (V) to the Paint Shapes Updated Show/Hide icon to color match the colors used on the map. Updated the Show/Hide icon graphic to use an eye for Show and an eye with a strike through for Hide

• Shadow Casting Object Types Added a large volume of updated to the Game Tools -> Fog of War panel to allow for creation of various Types of regions - Masks, Edges, Walls, and Doors.

  • Masks - A region that allows cast light to be displayed when the region is marked Show.

  • Walls - A region that disables lights when marked Hide yes still does not reveal when marked Show.

  • Edges - A region that blocks light from entering or exiting it's bounds. When locked, Edges ignore mouse click or mouse drag visibility toggle requests.

  • Doors - A special region type which blocks additional regions below it during visibility toggle requests.

    In addition to adding the new types, the list of Regions has been updated to include additional functionality. The functions and columns available on the Region List are as follows:

  • Show/Hide - Toggle Show or Hide state for the specific Region

  • Name - The name of the specific Region. Double-click to edit the name

  • Group - The group of the specific Region. Double-click to edit the group

  • Type - A drop down selector which allows for a specific region to have it's Type altered

  • I/P - Toggle Interactive or Passive for a given Region. Interactive Regions require Lights to reveal contents. Passive Regions are all or nothing when toggling Show/Hide.

  • Lock/Unlock - Toggle edit/translation locking. While a Region is locked, its shape and location cannot be changed (Edit Mode and Drag)

  • Center-To - A button which centers the map to the specified Region. Helpful for Identifying Regions

  The layout of the Mold mode buttons has been altered such that Toggles are seperated by a | character. Service buttons have been added to allow for multi-select changes to be made to Regions. Specifically, the four Type buttons - Wall Mask Edge Door - and the Interactive Passive toggle. Clicking on one of the Type buttons will allow for rapid change of selected Regions to the clicked Type. Clicking on Interactive or Passive will change all of the selected regions to that state.

  The layout of the Draw mode buttons has also changed. Additional buttons have been added to account for the need to draw using the new Types. Selecting a Type will toggle the selected Type as your draw mode. Additionally, you'll find an Interactive/Passive toggle as well as a Closed/Open toggle. The Interactive/Passive toggle operates similar to the Typeselection; Regions drawn will have the select I/P property when created.

  The Closed/Open toggle is slightly different and should be considered experimental and is predominately for use with the Edge Region Type. With Open selected. The restriction of >3 knots is removed from Region creation. Open behaviors for Regions are as follows:

  • Wall - Light will be able to shine through an unclosed face, yet content under the light will not be revealed

  • Mask - no appreciable behavior change

  • Edge - Light will be able to shine through an unclosed face, the shape of the edge will create shadowed areas which block the map accordingly. Additionally, Edges can be used in Open mode to create straight lines. Currently there is a Known Issue in this mode which prevents click-selection of these Edges on the map. To edit a Edge-line it must be selected from the Region List directly.

  • Door - Light will be able to shine through an unclosed face AND reveal map content below it. Creatures who are occluded by the Door shape are revealed (when set to Dynamic Visibility). Like Walls when a light moves within the bounds of the Door the light is disabled.

    The core use case for Open Regions is when using Edges to add segments to a map such as the wall section between windows.

• Keyboard Shortcuts (all platforms) As the start of a normalization between the various keyboard shortcuts, we updated the Delete and Backspace key behavior in Draw Mode. While drawing knots, pressing either Delete or Backspace will delete the last knot in the chain. Once an Region is applied (Open or Closed) the selected Region can be deleted using either the Delete or Backspace key.

  In Mold Mode, selected Regions can be removed using either the Backspace or Delete key as well.

• Lights Panel and Objects Added a new panel to support Lights. This panel is available only while in Advanced Fog of War mode. To access lights, Open Game Tools -> Fog of War -> Easy (tab) and ensure that Advanced Fog of War is enabled. While enabled, you should see a Lights tab. Selecting this tab and clicking on Create will add a light to the current map.

  While in Fog of War -> Light mode (click on the tab Light if not currently in the context) you can drag lights around a map by using the white drag handle. A Hidden light is shown with a black drag handle.

  Lights can be tethered to creatures or items. To tether a light, you can either do so during creation or by entering the Edit Light panel. To Edit a Light, double click on the target light in the Light tab. You should then be presented with a Edit Light screen.

  Lights are composed of the following properties:

  • Name - A text name to help identify the light
  • Radius - The radius of the light in Grid Units (typically 1 = 5**); Radius can be a decimal number, for example a radius of .5 will result in a light that only fills 1 grid unit; A light radius of 6.9 would end just shy of the 7th Grid Unit from origin.
  • Enabled - Toggles the Show/Hide state of the current light
  • Public - Toggles if the light is Shown to other Players. Public can be used to model vision such as Dark vision where only the Owner can see the light
  • Fill - Sets a fill color and opacity for the current light. Keeping your opacity low (below 20%) will result in a cleaner visual experience
  • Ring - Sets a color for an outline around the current light. Again, keeping your opacity low helps create a better visual experience.
  • Owner - The Creature or Item which owns the light. Pairing Owner with Public can have some very interesting effects. Attaching an owned light to another token can be used to model effects like Scrying

  • Tether - Denotes the Creature or Item that a light is attached too. A light that is not Tethered to a Creature or Item can only be moved by the Judge and only while in the Fog of War -> Light context. If an unowned light is Tethered, the owner will become the Tether target.

    The Light Panel under Game Tools -> Fog of War -> Lights also has quick access icons. The list of * Lights is broken down as follows:

  • Show/Hide - Toggle the selected Light visible or hidden

  • Name - Shows the name of the Light
  • Tether - Show the Tether of the specific light [Windows/Linux only]
  • Owner - Show the Owner of the specific light [Windows/Linux only]
  • Public - Toggle to set the Public state of the speciifc light
  • Center-To - Click to center the map to the selected light and show a focus animation

• Mini-View Portrait Update The Mini-view portrait is now scalable by dragging the gray bar below it up or down. Additionally, the portrait can be hidden bu clicking on the arrow-up/arrow-down toggle on the gray bar. This new system also allows for a wide view of the mini which has the portrait on the left and the creature details on the right.

• Mini-View Talk Bar added Added a talk bar to the mini-view which allows for rapid, in-character access to Say, Do, emote*, whisper, YELL** functions. The bar is only visible for Creatures owned. Switching between Creatures via tabs switches the talking Creature at the same time.

Pressing enter to submit the dialog also then results in auto selecting the existing typed text allowing for the text to be cleared on the next type or repeated by pressing enter again.

• UI Skin update In addition to the new Show/Hide icons, we've also started the process of re-skinning the application.

  • Remote Only: only trigger on remote instances
  • Local & Remote: the default
  • Local Only: only trigger the URI locally
