Post by: gameleaper on August 20, 2016, 05:09:52 PM
GM or Solo NPC Event Cards Program For PC Windows Free, get the situation

Draw 3 NPCs at a time for setting them up at an event, fully editable Events and situation lists.

This program isn't limited to NPCs, you can Make a Treasure or Trap situation, or a location, or even Map out a dungeon, by editing the lists that the data is generated from, you can create varying lengths of list from small to huge.

added a MacOSX version

Ive redone the Width so it fits on smaller screens, I added Dice and a compass, and a generic (yes/no) Ask the Virtual GameMaster Questions

I did a big d10 bit so I could play World of Darkness with it but it has D6s aswell

its now got a full set of driving indicators, lights, brakes, indicators,Hand Signal,compas,Traffic Lights.

it also has a coin to flip.

MULTI DECK VERSION NO ATTACHED, YOU CAN USE 4 DECKS OR HAVE A DECK OR TWO AND A DUNGEON TILE LAYOUT IDEA ETC...

OK MULTIDECK VERSION HAS PASSED TESTS NO LONGER EXPERIMENTAL, WORKS ON USBS ETC...

to keep size down I dropped Mac version, if anybody wants a Mac version just ask,

Major Updated the Program, now has Locks to stop rerolls of cards, and has Roll Buttons, aswell as all the lists being separated for each character, so now 6 individual lists for each character enabling combat resolution, character sheet generation, Treasure and Traps, Mood, Location data, all you need do is edit the lists text files and set the total number of entries in values.txt.

Ive added a B version with a Location and a monster card, its the same app with different lists

I just added a MORE version that includes a MacOSX version

gameleaper, this is really useful! Have you considered adding your random card draw program to this? You could have different screens (press 1,2,3...) like your Tile Mapping app that have different sections. One screen could be for NPCs, another for drawing cards, another for rolling dice, another for suggestion tables, etc.

I was looking into a way of firing-up child programs from a main menu app, but I'm not sure its possible with this language, but now you mention it I will probably look at this today, but I could maybe alter the app to do it all.

I think its usefull to be able to setup lists for NPCs or Combat resolution,you can even have 100 entries for 100 dice rolls, or anything else, it would be usefull to be able to run a set of these programs with different renamed names so they don't conflict, and have them for specific RPGs like NPCs, equipment, combat, char sheet, all running seperate. the info on them now is just an example but it can be stats, or numbers , or anything you can have lists 315 entries long in each separate list.

added a random 120 draw, Ive now added , a 3 card selector with padlocks, each card will draw a random card from 120 card deck, its not restricted by 3 card per file , the draw is true random for each slot.


added a random 120 draw , now it has this great new feature thanks to bbmike for the idea

gameleaper, the file values.txt in the folder 'Base' tells how many entries are in the list files. Is there a way to have each list file have a different number of entries? I was thinking about customizing each list file to have specific information. On list might have 50 items, another might have 192.

You can put double entries or multiple entries in the lists with a lower numbers of items maybe, this is because if you have different size lists, you will get blanks in others, so they all have to be a similar size less than values.txt, but you can have 315 entries in each list you can go higher than values.txt but they wont show, but you cant go lower.

Its not perfect I know, but putting 3 items of an 'Axe' and 3 'swords' will give 6 items, so your other list can be bigger.

That will work. I may have to duplicate an entry or two but I don't think that's a big deal. Thanks!

if you even them out its fine say 10 mules 10 horses 10 wagons 10 boats is a random of 4 items all equally drew, and now you can have a list for weapons of 40 1 pistol, 1 Winchester, 1 knife, 1 darenger, 1 whip, 1 axe, 1 shotgun, upto 40 etc... so now you wont have a list that is bias.

as noted by bbmike now I have split the list values up, so now you have 3 values.txt files in each chars folder, for each char

IMPORTANT make sure your card images are 1142x436 or you will get errors, I have set the blanks so either paste in or make your images the correct size.

its finished now so grab the multideck version.
