OOC Discussion

What doesn't fit elsewhere can be discussed here!

Ciao, everyone! Just saying a general hello! Excited to be starting a new game.

Was looking around to find a minifigs to use as avatars, there are a few D&D specific sets out now, but the Lego minifig creation page is currently down. : /

Welcome to the game and to GP! I know, unfortunately I haven't had good luck finding a place to make a minifig for the characters.

I used Gemini (Google AI) And it gave me some pretty good Images, I mean obviously it's not made up of real lego pieces. But at least it looks like a lego character, and has enough customization that we won't all be identical.

Derp! Why didn't I think of AI images. Hah! Ossified cranial matter.

What the flip?! That's awsome!

You've got to download and reupload Gemini Images

I cheated and pasted in a screenshot. :P

I'll be gone over the weekend and maybe not be able to post. Back on monday/tuesday. :)


By the way: Meet Enigo Brickoswky - Mountain Dwarf out of The Great Library(tm)



I think I am pretty done with characterbuilding, maybe swap a spell from this to that, but all in all nothing major should change now.

All your characters are looking great!

Have a good holiday weekend! Not expecting to start scene 1 until after the holiday weekend and everyone has submitted their characters. I'll still check the threads over the weekend though if you guys post.

I am finishing up building him out then transfering to Gamersplane :)

I am about done and happy to start after the weekend 🙂

This video about using AI for custom graphic assets for TTRPG popped up in my YouTube thread and it blew my mind. Okay. I obviously knew about AI Art Generation, and I think I kind of understood people were already doing this, but my sluggish brain just couldn't connect the dots on it's own. :) You can just get some AI to generate what you like! And you can use kind of backgroundy image to just do a general representation of movement and location if you don't want to do strict grids, etc.

Also, I read about what seemed a nice way to account for movement in theatre of the mind (or the above) using language to convey distance. Melee/Reach/Nearby/etc, and your chars movement allows you to move one or more distances. There was a simpler one with just Melee/Near/Far, but i can't remember where that article/post was.

How does posting to just one person, such as the GM, work?

I read the guide about basic posting…

Just wondering what others see…

If it's a note we see that a message was sent from you too whatever person it's sent to, if it's sent as a private others see nothing.

Generally the private tag is exclusively used by the Game Master as players don't usually need other players to be unaware that something was sent.

Regardless the GM sees all note's and all privates and for the GM the private Tag shows up almost the same as a Note except where it says not is replaced with private.



Note and Private.

Ta!!

Thank you for the explanation of the note feature~!

@Dhakhan

I will definitely keep what you've written in mind!

I just have an image of Merton being approached for a job and being told "if you are patient future opportunities might come into your lap" thinking it was a hit job but in reality he was just hired at a Wing Stop and the manager was just thinking he might be a good shift lead.

Ha ha, that's hilarious! I am afraid Merton is going to be traumatized for a bit from all the hot wing smells then.
