sentry0 8 Posted November 23, 2018 Report Share Posted November 23, 2018 Hi all! I'm currently days away from releasing a cross platform app for Android and iOS that lets you manage your OpenD6 characters. I've been working part time on this for fun and plan on releasing it for free sometime this weekend, likely. Here's a quick video showing you the work to date - https://youtu.be/3GGaBId5rp8 The project is open source and the project code is hosted here - https://github.com/sentry0/OpenD6Toolkit Features: Die roller Supports both classic and Legend styles of rolling Statistics are also tracked on your dice Character tools Select a template to build your character from Automatically calculates your point cost Supports the three base genres out of the box (Adventure, Fantasy, Space) Supports all options (Advantages, Complications, Special Abilities) Save/Load/Delete characters Game Templates The app supports custom game templates that may be used to build characters There is a companion project for sharing templates here - https://github.com/sentry0/OpenD6Toolkit-Game-Templates Custom templates means you can support games that use the Mini-6 ruleset easily Future Plans: Embed the full SRD into the app GM tools (campaign log, initiative chart, NPC health tracker) A library of OGL OpenD6 and related games Thanks!

Mavelic 19 Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 That's really a good project. Is there any mean to print characters ? Any pc version ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sentry0 8 Posted November 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 I can look into printing from the app, I hadn't thought of it actually. I don't plan on doing a desktop version of the app at this time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Miss a "how to" make custom template : any tutorials ? Tank you again There is no official tutorial...I'll have to write one For now this will have to do: Go here Copy the file contents into a text editor like Notepad (or Notepad++) Give it a name by editing line 2 Add/Edit/Delete attributes and skills (or anything else for that matter) Save the new template to Google Drive/iCloud or to your phone directly Tap the "Upload" button under the "Templates" section on the home screen Select your template Build your character I can help you with the above if you find yourself running into issues. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sentry0 8 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2019 I just pushed an update to the Android/Amazon/Apple app stores for the the 1.1.1 release of the OpenD6 Toolkit. I fixed a couple of bugs and added a bunch of features and upgraded some core development frameworks and libs. Here's what's coming: Fixed various bugs with loading/saving character and templates (iOS) Added the Move attribute to the builder Added the Equipment tab to the builder Added the Background tab to the builder Added the Notes tab to the builder Added a points section to the builder to track character/fate/build and complication points Added a footer to the builder with buttons to create/save/open characters quickly Attributes and skills now have a hidden menu you can access by sliding the name of the item to the right The Initiative tool now allows you auto-sort initiatives The updated app should be rolling out to your devices within the next day or so. Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sentry0 8 Posted August 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) Hello! I have just released the version 1.2.0 of the OpenD6 Toolkit app. This is a major release that contains a couple of new tools and a major enhancement to an existing one. I'm really happy with how the app is shaping up and feel like it's come a long way from its original version, so I would encourage you to check it out! Here's what you can expect: Created the Architect tool that allows world builders to design games Renamed and enhanced the Initiative tool to be the Orchestrator Created a Backup and restore feature Implemented paginated lists for Advantages/Complications/Special Abilities Reworked the UI in general in attempt to make user interactions obvious Added navigation buttons to all screens Did a pass to support smaller phones Miscellaneous bug fixes and enhancements This update should be hitting your devices over the next couple of days. Cheers. Edited August 8, 2019 by sentry0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
