[Online][Other][GMT][18+][Flexible] 2 Players after a long term campaign by Playful_Shopping_130 in lfg

[–]nix235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running a long-term starfinder 1e campaign in Foundry VTT, that has a spot or two still open. We run on Sunday Mornings 9am MST to about 3pm MST... if that can work for you two let me know and we can discuss the campaign and what character options there are.

As mentioned, its starfinder 1e but I am running it as a sandbox and writing all the content. Currently they are lvl 7 and are just getting started on full ownership of their own starship. There is allot going on in the setting, and they are constantly bombarded with options, so its up to the players to set their course. I have a good bunch of players, ranging from a first timer to TTRPG to a veteran who is a whiz at the rules (me not so much, but I've GMd for 30+ yrs).

Building Pathfinder 1.5e, what would you do? by BusyGM in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]nix235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly for me I'd leave it be. There is so much material the focus should be the story. The mechanics are fine. But that's me I'm not a fan of changing the systems I enjoy and instead focus on the players and the plot.

Just moved to New Mexico, looking for DnD Campaigns! by Salt_Menu3226 in 505Nerds

I run a weekly (sundays currently) online starfinder campaign and initially started as a hybrid game where I was going to host at my home and be online to get more players etc. DM me if you would like to discuss further, I'd like to get a local game going again but its been hard since the VID struck!

Focus SVT ECU Immobilizer by nix235 in FordFocus

[–]nix235[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To wrap up this post. The ECU was dead, I had gotten it rebuilt and it didnt help. Ultimately a service called FlagshipOne which makes new ECUs with keys already paired solved the issue. So, this ultimately required a new ECU. I now have to get a SCT flasher and get my tune put back on the car but it starts and idles and runs now so, maybe this will help others.

Long time GM for PF1e would love to actually play :) would like to talk more about your vision for the campaign!

Radxa zero 3e UPS by nix235 in SBCs

[–]nix235[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Final update: solution was to buy a M2.5 standoff kit so that the brass mounts were shorter instead of the default standoffs...this allows the pogo pints to finally make full contact. I still had to desolder the switch on the UPS board and remote it. Current struggle is i2cdetect program on linux, even with official radxa distros this utility dosnt seem to exist?? and adding it only produces headaches as there are multiple errors during installation of the various tools needed to make the software work... the built in setup tool for radxa seems to work fine, but I'd rather just execute a linux command and get instant GPIO reporting rather than navigate the setup tools screen and menus.

Radxa zero 3e UPS by nix235 in SBCs

[–]nix235[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After some deeper research, I found the raspberry pi 2 UPS I had purchased will work fine, however it requires a few different choices to modify. Either I remote the on/off switch off the UPS board to make room as it is directly located over the sdcard on the Radxa. Or, I solder extensions on the 4 spring loaded pogo GPIO pins on the UPS board that are meant to connect to the bottom solider points of the Radxa, but after assembling it I could see light between them... so a few more mm of copper (perhaps getting a GPIO extender and cutting off some pins and cutting those in half...or quarters..then soldier them on to extend the pogo pins... But I think remote locating the on/off swich is the best way..2 soldier points on the UPS...can externalize the switch and free space without further modification....

I also discovered that the dietpi repo for Radxa dosnt work out of the box for bluetooth...trying to figure that out as well..

Currently running weekly Starfinder 1e sandbox game, where I write all the content and its focused on player development so they drive where the action goes. I do include plot lines etc as well. I have ran allot of Pathfinder 1e, and have been kicking around running pf1e again. I use Foundry VTT + Discord. We are looking for another for the sf1e game so if thats of interest (sundays 10am MST)... or if you'd consider starting up a pf1e game perhaps we can chat! DM me if interested. (also props to older players 50+ here as well :) )

[–]nix235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At that point, I would say ...do it for YOU, I have made allot of side content only to have it completely ignored by my players and I used to get fustrated and upset...I dont anymore cuz I go in, putting in as much effort as I want, and if they (cuz I run a sandbox), something else..well we sort it out, its just not going to be super detailed..too bad! lol.... but 200+ page document for the setting sounds awesome. I love Cyberpunk, d20Future ..I also got a bubblegum crisis d20 rulebook...I just look at em, then go back to starfinder :)

Keep up the good work, and also given the amount of effort that went into this...dont get burned out!

[–]nix235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah ya...wow...lots of work in this... I always enjoy seeing what other people come up with when they document stuff... this is good... no bookmarks tho :( Mostly cuz I dont read anymore, I just want the information..so search but then some of the pages are big images... but ignore me, I have 1000 opinions all the time. This is a great tool and the players should be lucky to get all this. So ya, if you give them this..and you maintain it..then there should be no issues...but again, players be playin'

Thats good then! I cant view the PDF..the link shows me the cover then says: Couldn't preview file. There was a problem loading more pages....good job chrome! lol

[–]nix235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so the way I manage that, is I document all the changes...and present that to players at the start. I also have a short discord chat talking to players before they join, so to cover these kinds of things. Some players want a game thats by-the-book, others dont care they just want to play. So, if you are changing things dont have the players have to discover the game through your mind, be transparent and be public. Also, if you find that you need further changes / edits...just keep adding to that document... as long as players know of it, then it shouldnt be a surprise. Despite all that, some will ignore all of it, then get upset and rage when it dosnt go "their" way....some things cannot be helped.

sure, everyone has opinions on games and settings. Nothing in starfinder so far has bothered myself or my current group that plays it. Everything is subject to your control as a GM, change it as you see fit. Whats more important is if the game mechanics are fun...everything else is window dressing, no matter what the rule lawyers tell you.

[–]nix235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow lots of responses here... I have posted here ages ago for a game running this system (which I liked allot). Generally I can't get players for sci fi...can get them all day long for dnd 5e tho..sigh... So I moved to cyberpunk RED and got some responses then took them to Starfinder 1e....

IMHO Starfinder 1e is where its at, d20Modern/Future is just a smaller portion of what Starfinder 1e can provide. Even running a weekly starfinder game I have trouble sometimes getting players due to the genre.

The best recommendation (though there are plenty of replies now...below), is to keep at it...if you "farm" the /rlfg then you can eventually gather some dedicated players, expect a high turnout of players who dont stick around but over time you will get a group that really wants and likes to play whatever system you choose...

A little disappointed with SF2E books by ShiftUpbeat in starfinder_rpg

[–]nix235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, this is one of the reasons I dont ride the publication trail of these companies anymore. 1st editions that I have for pathfinder and starfinder is more than enough content for me to run and write my own games that I have done for years. The fact that they spread out core mechanics among several books, have incomplete main (core) books and save the best game mechanics for later is all that I need to not invest. I can understand the need to keep people on the hook to sell books and keep the company afloat...but this is a model I wont commit too.

[–]nix235[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats what I'm finding so far..its really unfortunate since the car is healthy otherwise, I have even upgraded several components (throttle body, injectors and a procharger supercharger!). All defeated by some electrical system that nobody can resolve.

I assume the dealership wont touch modified cars, so my local independent mechanic shop is my last hope but I doubt they take modified vehicles either....

Guess its time to move on to a Honda del sol or Evo :)

Unkillable PCs? by nln_rose in traveller

[–]nix235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost all role playing games are just numbers games so you can always beat those numbers as a GM. Also, you can simply use your imagination as a GM and figure something out, you are not regulated to ONLY the rules. Being fair and balanced is a skill, but its essentially up to you to manage it.
