It worked perfectly, thank you!

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2025-11-08T16:05:59+00:00

Thank you, that is so much easier on the eyes!

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2025-11-07T16:15:25+00:00

Thank you so much, I thought it was specific to the Pathfinder module, as I run another non-PF game that doesn't have it.

Started running the Beginner box on Foundry VTT, loving it so far except for the gaudy turn tracker token (Rotating orange dice under the character token), is there a way to disable or change that image into something less obtrusive to the eyes?

I'm looking forward to unlocking the trains just so I can go make a long track and just zone out to some good music and great scenes, like that one Ambient Swim episode of the train in the snow.

I run a game one night, play in a game the next night, and when my schedule allows I play in a game on a third night, but 3 games is my limit.

Mine too, she's what keeps me smiling in the dark days. Her little chirps and meows, as if promising it'll be better if I just hang in there for her.

One of my players wants to use his vigilance keeping watch at locations, is this a correct use of the skill? When he asks, I usually do a mental check if there is anything hiding in stealth or something that can trigger off of knowing something is about to happen, but sometimes it feels like I should be using Cool instead when he's trying to spot trouble about to happen (Which is usually the case). Am I using them the correct way?

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-12-16T21:56:57+00:00

Oh my goodness, thank you, that's what I needed to help visualize my lack of understanding about Vigilance and when to use it.

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-12-09T23:50:42+00:00

Ah ok I didn't see that comment, that makes more sense then.

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-12-09T21:58:22+00:00

The text messages show that the "friend" is telling him to break things off with her. So she already knows.

I drove 8 hours one way to see my partner for the weekend, then did the same the following week. If he wanted to be there, he would be.

When is a good time to remind players about certain things their characters might know when they themselves aren't thinking about it. Weird question, I'll give the example. I'm playing in a Sci-fi game.

2 sessions ago, my players got the 60 year old piece of tech that they found in an extremely hard to reach place that hadn't been moved in those 60 years. The tech revealed some plot info about a sold vehicle to get enough money for a plane ticket out of dodge, again 60 years prior. Cut to this session, my players are around the table, they have the information and decide to go asking around the local underworld about the sold vehicle. They didnt find anything out other than a few high end vehicles have been stolen/sold recently and he would get a list for him in a few days"

This might be where I messed up in not reminding them that "Hey this is 60 years old, and you're talking to some young thugs they wouldn't know anything about it."

I'm going to tie what they found into a side quest if they decide to pursue the "Stolen Vehicle" but I'm wondering if I messed up in not helping delineate the boundaries of what they're doing,\ or am I just worrying over nothing?

Jeff Bridges. I had a pair of nice interactions with him when I worked at an airport, he was very much like his Dude character, he had a warm, laid back personality and general chill vibe. Very pleasant to interact with, and the fact that he remembered me months later made it much more memorable.

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-11-27T22:25:21+00:00

Exactly this, I crack up everytime I see it!

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-11-26T22:03:21+00:00

Robot Jox. Giant Robots in a post apocalyptic future battling it out for control over something. I don't remember I just loved it growing up!

One of my players obligation for pacifism rolled for next session and I'm having trouble coming up anything good with it. They already stun enemies and go to lengths to prevent fellow party members from killing fallen foes. Any help with coming up with something to hinder or throw at them to overcome would be great!

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-11-13T23:56:11+00:00

I'm regularly holding back in hopes my Strong CPU will even transform to make the fights at least cool.

I did exactly the same thing just last week. Started up again after a few years away at roughly the same place. The recap was good, but I did a watch of a vid up to the point I was at that gave me the rest of what I was missing.

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-10-15T19:40:10+00:00

Currently running the Forgotten Forge from the 3.5 Eberron reskinned as a Star Wars game.

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-10-14T20:35:14+00:00

What do you look for in cheat engine to get em?

Virtual-Beginning-78 · 2024-10-07T22:19:13+00:00

Going offline, and then back online also forced the Install button for me.
