If any of you nigs have Tabletop Sim, I'm hosting a server.
Name: Infinity Pass: quesocheese
If that server gets full, any of you are welcome to also host, as long as you keep the password the same, and the name something one of us would recognize.
If this is still up tomorrow I'll join in. I have to wake up in the morning so I can't stay up doing this shit
Aaron Sullivan
If it isn't, I'm sure someone else can host one using that name and password.
As of right now I'm setting up some motherfuckin' Heroscape.
Camden Butler
I hope more warhammer mods hit the workshop, just wish there was more chaos/renegade stuff.
Landon Cruz
Whats going on here?
Adrian Smith
That's just a 40k battle I played with a friend a while back over Tabletop Sim. Was pretty fun.
Jordan Cook
So im guessing we have to buy this software?
Adam Brown
Does it work with Vive?
Isaiah Anderson
Well, yeah. But it's basically the last traditional game you'd ever have to buy. The workshop is loaded with plenty of bootleg board games, card games, RPG's, whatever.
Yes.
Nathan Lee
Why? I mean, I know they didn't have the proper tech back in the day so you had to use the dice roll shit, but games have moved on since then. Most of these old rpgs have aged like milk. There is literally no skill involved whatsoever to play them, not to mention the fact that they are incredibly boring looking as well. Action combat is the best thing to happen to the game industry. Now we don't have to rely on the game to calculate our damage for us, we can do it all ourselves. Plus, action combat is kick, fucking ass (incredibly aesthetically pleasing), and it takes some actual skill as well. Most of you stick with your artificial difficulty games where the stats do everything because you know you would get your ass whipped in an action RPG. Time to get with the time, fellas.
Sage for shit thread. Check em'
Wyatt Hernandez
how the fuck do you play 40k on it accurately anyways?
Ayden Brooks
Is there singleplayer? Can you do RPGs with it?
Bentley Powell
Hold Tab while holding Left Mouse, bam. Instant Measuring Tape.
Alexander Kelly
There IS singleplayer, but there's no AI, so it's basically pointless. And yes.
Josiah Reed
Nice downboat
Oliver Johnson
Hm. Well, that's okay I guess. How hard is it to make your own systems in this?
Christopher Reyes
10/10 you actually made me kind of mad
Nathaniel Campbell
shit nigga I didn't know that Haven't played since 5th Edition and I stopped partly due to GW shitting the bed, I didn't really mind the price but I could get back into it because of this. Is 6th Edition (at least the codexes) as awful as /tg/ are saying?
Technically there's hotseating if you've got friends but you won't play games where you'd have to hide information in that case. Making your own system is pretty easy since all it really is is a physics sandbox with the tools used to play table top games properly. There's LUA scripting as well if you wanna get into advanced things.
Blake Turner
Is this a good place to start playing these for the first time?
Ethan Collins
nice comeback ;)
Joseph Gonzalez
Yes, you will not be able to play with other people if you pirate it
Noah Young
It's how I did it. So why not?
Luis Scott
How advanced can I make an RPG system in this?
Landon Gonzalez
Can you create custom gamemodes?
Anthony Diaz
If it works on an IRL table, it'll work here as well unless it's a game dependent on scripts.
Dylan Murphy
Absolutely. How else would there be hundreds of bootleg board games on the workshop? Also pic of the heroscape map, on the server.
Ian Cruz
Shame I have to pirate it. I'd love to adapt my RPG system and test it online so I know it works.
Isaac Collins
You can make just about any game you can think of.
Even Atmosfear/Nightmare and other VHS board games work.
Bentley Martin
Would there be interest in playing pic related?
Jackson Edwards
Sure. I will warn you that SJG has been really anal about taking down workshop items of their games, at least with Munchkin.
Matthew Evans
But you can create a custom game mode and have it uploaded somewhere else right? I'm assuming the gamemodes are in folders of the game's directory.
David Perez
That is true, yes.
Joseph Stewart
At $20 without sales, it's cheaper than a pretty good chunk of /tg/ stuff, especially Warhammer and discontinued shit like Heroscape.
Ryan Wood
Of course there would be.
But this user is right , they do get pretty anal about their games being uploaded to the workshop so be careful, I had a takedown notice from Hasbro for Monopoly.
Yes, so don't panic if your shit gets taken down. As long as you have the files needed and upload them elsewhere, then you won't need to give a shit about those clowns trying to send C&Ds
Dylan Hughes
You technically don't need any files on your computer, most things on the workshop are made by creating custom items that take image or model data from external URLs like image hosts or pastebin, so you can play games with anyone even if they don't have the files themselves.
Xavier Ramirez
Oh boy, about to battle user
Evan Sullivan
It's under $10 on G2A right now, in fact.
Liam Howard
user had to leave, so now's as good a time as any to pick another game. How do you goys feel about Texas Hold Em?
Caleb Ortiz
...
Juan Hernandez
Reversi-user, you're alright.
Even though you're bad at Reversi.
Brody Bennett
and you call yourselves "gaming experience enthusiasts".
Evan Long
Are you still on? I've got time to kill now.
Colton Parker
I was about to head to bed actually, it's like 4:30 AM here. I will be back, though.
David Sullivan
how the fuck is this game
explain in 5 words or less autitst
Colton Nguyen
Oh. Good night user. I guess I'll just work on refining my game a bit more.
Matthew Evans
Speak English you fucking Mexican
Sebastian Morales
I'm back, and so is the server.
Ethan Jackson
Is there a non-Steam(ing pile of shit) version?
Gavin Perry
Unfortunately not. Besides, the Steam Workshop is the main thing that makes the game so great.
Jordan Taylor
I've been experimenting ripping out models and textures from games to shove them into tabletop simulator. Thanks to blender and a couple of steaming piles of hot bullshit, i can get monsters and objects from Torchlight and Neverwinter Nights 2 into the game, to use later for roleplaying games in combat scenarios. I want to do the same with a few other games, but they're in the unity ASSETS format. Anyone has any experience dealing with that stuff?
Xavier Nelson
I don't. But that is some spectacular ripping work. Keep it up!
Connor Thomas
So DoW3 might be actually good for something! Although they might fuck up the graphics so much that 2 is a superior option.
Carson Wilson
Yeah. Dawn of War is where most of the models come from for 40k games.
Also, we're watching Youtube Poops via tablet.
Owen Johnson
Now that I think about it, recreating Battlefleet Gothic is also an option, thanks to Battlefleet Gothic Armada. And I guess the program can handle Epic 40k even if you use DoW models. Oh, the possibilities…
I don't know what to do with this information.
Josiah Anderson
I downloaded it to give it a look to see how possible it would be to get the files out. Turns out it uses one large PAK file to store its shit, that's a surprisingly old format file used by like quake 2 and half life. Getting the files out is easy, but the content is in unreal ( *.UASSET files) I have never used unreal stuff, but in theory, you should be able to open those things with unreal engine 4, export it on some other format Blender can take, and then convert them into obj using Blender.
Sounds like a hassle, but then again, what i do with Torchlight and nwn2 is kind of the same deal.
About to play some Risk Legacy on the server, if anyone wants to watch/join.
Gabriel Brooks
Well i've got the pirate version working, but its 7.8.1. Also i would need the server ip because it only allows for direct connect. Have a bump though.
Anthony Baker
Thanks for the bump! If you can connect, 174.106.83.254:25565 Also, just finished Risk Legacy, check out these dank screencaps.
Lincoln Allen
Dang, no dice. Maybe our versions mismatch? Oh well. Maybe i'll be able to catch up later with you guys.
Aaron Turner
Well, to be fair, I stopped hosting right after that post. I'll put it up later, then you can try.
Ryder Harris
Server's back up, if pirateanon wants to try again.
Jace Hughes
Holy shit it just werks. But our versions don't match. I'll have to wait a bit until those steampirate wizards update the game. Hope you'll still be up for some tabletop simulator by then.
Xavier Robinson
This crazy motherfucker modded in Dragon Dice into TTS and did a demo video of it and then refused to release it to the public unless the devs issued him a public apology. Autistic doesn't even begin to cover this wonderful retard.
Camden Johnson
Wat. Holy shit.
Blake Bennett
sheeit
Camden Perry
SHIT
Henry Morales
I think he must have deleted or hid the video but you can see him mentioning making a dice model for Table Top Simulator. I wish I would have saved that video.
Isaiah Wright
...
Joseph Brown
...
Oliver Jenkins
Since all the ones on the workshop suck, I'm going to be making a better set of the Illuminati card game. There's only about 500 cards so it shouldn't take long.
Andrew Perry
Nice! I'm starting up the server now to try out some Pocket Tactics.
William Russell
Here are some of the cards, I'm remaking most from scratch due to how bad most scans of the cards are and so far am being as true to the source as possible.
That being said, would anyone have a problem with putting in custom images/artwork for some cards that have been poorly scanned?
Jaxson Perry
like this, not sure how tacky it would be to have a half and half playing set
Jaxon Moore
Can it simulate playing board games alone?
Caleb Morales
I like it. If nothing else, it sure as hell beats pictures that are artifacted to shit.
Adrian Howard
I want to, but it feels like I'm corrupting the original deck. The artifacts don't look that bad ingame.
Daniel Scott
Man I'm really bad at coming when games are happening.
Josiah Nelson
Have another bump. Hopefully we will have another thread if this one gets pruned.
Bentley Peterson
Just realize that there's multiple versions of Illuminati and the cards I made aren't for the version that's more popularly known.
Wyatt King
Bumping.
Adam Wright
Even better, you can do BAttletech
Nathaniel Thompson
This is the primary genre after sims that will be great one VR gets a little better. No need to walk removes most of the drawbacks and it would look cool as fuck.
Michael Scott
Risk Legacy Round 4 starting soon, will post results.
Bentley Ramirez
We did it. We glassed the Middle East.
Caleb Perry
...
Jeremiah Jones
Round 4 in a nutshell: The Middle East is now a nuclear wasteland thanks to Die Mechaniker, Mutants from said wasteland form a faction, the major city of "THE WALL" springs up in the continent of "MAGA"
Christopher Carter
Would love to play. I gotta work pretty solidly for the next three days so I hope this thread is still around then.
Levi Long
To be honest, this particular Risk Legacy game has kinda been a circlejerk among me and some friends. However, I could start a second one, open to all anons, if there's any interest…
Camden Bailey
Can I pirate this and play it on a crap Linux computer that's 6 years old and was out dated at the time
Matthew Reyes
I think so? Though you'll be missing out without the Steam Workshop.
Daniel Gray
What are the software requirements, anything higher than 2 gig of ram and an Intel Atom
Easton Morales
...
Connor Smith
It's physics based, so you probably can't run it. It even slows down sometimes on my i7-4760.
Ethan Howard
I'm currently in the process of making a tabletop wargame, specifically designed for Tabletop Simulator. I'm planning to make it have a custom faction/unit creation system, too.
Tyler Rogers
Illuminati eventually
Why not just go AGDG?
Grayson Martin
Because I feel like filling a different niche.
Liam Flores
Oh shit is there a Shadow of the Demon Lord module on this?
how easy is it to play games that aren't D&D and pathfinder?
Josiah Stewart
Truth be told, in terms of actual pen and paper RPGs, you're better off with Roll20. But for everything else /tg/-related, this is best.
Joseph Ward
I saw that edit there
Jaxon Wood
And not the druid one?
Ian Wood
any multiplayer torrents working?
Nathaniel Ortiz
Youll have to wait a bit until a patch for the current version is released. Latest update is 7.9 and cracked version is still 7.8.1. Setting it up to work is a bit of a hassle though. I'll link the forum thread when an update is released.
Adrian Hall
So the pirate version got updated, now if only host-user would kindly host another game so i can test the mp.
In the same thread you'll find updates and some files that youll need. Install them accordingly. Here's an update that's in an attachment (won't fuckin let me upload so heres a link)
Install everything in order (7.6>7.7>…), set up the emulator (i recommend using the SSELauncher, its piss easy to edit the needed values instead of fucking around with ini files) and you should be good to go.
Julian Perez
Shit forgot to include the latest patch which is also only in an attachment.
Currently what it's missing are more qualities, especially for weapons. Once we fill those holes, we can work on factions.
Isaiah Gonzalez
Well so far so good. Dunno why you choose 4 as the number for the dice rolls to be compared to, that thing might need to be changed if and when bigger numbers come into play. Might even be possible to make units that are unbeateable (put all points into def or dur) but yeah. Or make units ridiculously op. Maybe you need some other way to calculate this number, and not a set number? Also how would you solve initiative (who attacks/moves first?).
As for the equipment, you could try some utility stuff. Like stealth equipment, which is expensive, but if you have fast units you could use them to get in and out quickly and do some damage. Or mines/explosives, which help against said stealth units because you could make certain paths unaccesible. You could go on with this for quite a while, but i think you should focus on the core stuff i mentioned for now.
Obviously im making these conclusions based on an early draft (how many points do you get to design all the units? how many different units can you design? etc etc) so sorry if i come of too harsh.
Josiah Hughes
I chose 4 because the formula is d6 + attacker's stat - defender's stat, meaning if they have the same number as that stat, it's a 50-50 chance.
Also, don't worry about being too harsh. Too harsh would be writing it off as shit without explaining why.
Adam Perez
so is this some super comfy shared game room where you can see other people's games being played simultaneously or does there have to be separate servers or whatever for every game?
Isaiah Scott
everyone plays on one singular digital board you can change games or import more than one onto the same table if you know how but generally you would save the game you're playing and load the new one, sharing the space isn't easy, so no such comfy still pretty fun and comfy either way though
Owen Thompson
Oh ok. Im just worried with exploiting stuff, based on how much points you have available. Say if you have fast, first-attack units, just pump em full of attack and you have your suicide bombers. That kinda sounds cool now that i think of it, just what are your thoughts on limiting the abusability of such things?
I guess the number of points available should be detirmined by which faction you choose? And factions should have some qualities that nudge the player to play in a specific way? Im putting a lot of attention here because i feel the point distribution greatly affects if the game feels balanced or easily exploitable.
Gabriel Scott
The number of points available is based on the individual battle, basically. Like, if it's a 100-point battle, then you could have ten models worth 10 points each, four models worth 25 points each, and so on.
Christian Flores
Well cool. We should playtest it, see how it goes. How many players did you intend for this game to support?
David Phillips
2-4, possibly even more. I'll have to make a workshop item later on too.
Lucas Turner
Does anyone have a list of all W40K and Fantasy armies available on the workshop? The search feature is rather shit so I'm not sure if I'm finding all warhammer stuff on there.
