what about this?

Post by wounded_badger »

what about a token or object that was not necessarily round and you could put it next to a token and turn whichever way you needed like a flamethrower cone shape with a small end and a large end and be able to turn it any direction?

You could do this with token grouping which is planned

You need to save it in a format that supports alpha channel. Either PNG or TIFF would work.

you are the man I thought it had to go in the token tool this is awesome HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! btw I just started using your tool three hours ago and I love it...now I just have to package everything for people to download...here's the skinny (any help getting it to people would be great)

I have taken the Mission Editor form Dawn Of War (RTS Game) and made a small basic map (to see if it would work, then went in and (tedious) made token of all the available units (of course if someone needs to they have to add their own notes per unit) for an Orks force and a Space Marine force. A person could play Dawn of War tabletop style, Warhammer 40,000, Warhammer Fantasy, Epic, Inquisitor, Necromunda, Battle fleet Gothic, etc.,


I have been doing what your tool does for over a year on power point and let me tell you it was hard as heck to make it work flawlessly where your does it already....Thanks so much and as I said any help figuring out how to give this to others would be great :)

Scott,

You can post everything in the Gallery here, or use RPGMapShare. Those are the two easiest.

You can post them in the Gallery. Take a look at it. Folks have all the various MT file types posted there. I'm not sure if RPGMapShare supports those file types, but it might.

Did you create an account yet? Once you have an account you'll be able to create albums and upload content.
