Re: game breaking problem with "day" vision

Just so I am clear though, the OP it's running 1.4.1.8 and having issue, right?

But will take a look in any case, I never like to see performance get worse as I go forward lol.

Re: MT GUID generation method

There ya go! Will done!

Btw, can I ask what you are doing, or rather why you are creating the campaign file like this?

Just curious is all. I'm guessing you must have some external play going on with your players or something? Who knows, it might spark some me feature...

Re: MT GUID generation method

If it's for the tokens UUID yes, I believe you could but just about anything in there (copy an existing one) as it would get a new UUID when you drop it on the map (otherwise dropping the same token multiple times would cause a problem). There's other instances of <baGUI> in token serializations tho...

Re: game breaking problem with "day" vision

If you have no FoW then why do you have VBL? Because it is a daytime map and the area is known? As you well know, the VBL is to control who can see what. I use maps with VBL and no FoW all the time. Not all action takes place in a dungeon. But, yeah, there are a number of red flags and very few spe...

Re: MT GUID generation method

Those ID's are actually generated by XStream when we serialize the classes. If you want to generate a UUID in Java, just use UUID.randomUUID() from java.util.UUID. If you want it as a string, UUID.randomUUID().toString(). If you want it without hyphens, UUID.randomUUID().toString().replaceAll("...

Re: game breaking problem with "day" vision

Agree with Fullbleed, just to many open questions and a few red flags... FYI: If you looked, yes, my fork is cross platform just as is the original version. It's about 200mb installed because it brings it's own JRE. That will be the same space as installing the original MT + Java JRE. Or you can use...

Re: [Nerps!] MapTool Fork based on 1.4.1.x

FYI: 1.4.5.2 release -> https://github.com/JamzTheMan/MapTool/r ... ag/1.4.5.2

Tweaked the AI movement so it's a little more like the original movement in terms of straighter lines through open areas.

Re: game breaking problem with "day" vision

Lights, do you have any/many? And what version of MapTool? Are you running day or night vision? How about server options, Individual FoW?

I've made some improvements, especially with lights & FoW lately, try my fork and see if it's worse or better. http://maptool.nerps.net

Re: can a single token show its label at all times?

Have you tried other ways to note the tokens? Adding a Halo color makes it stand out pretty easily and is always on. Another option would be adding a "State". States can be always on or on hover. You can make them as small or as large as you want. Hint, Make a 100x100 image with a text box...

Re: Any support for Android?

Short answer, no and not anytime soon. At one point tablets were the "thing" but you could also get cheap windows tablets but MapTool could lag depending on what VBL/Lighting you got going. For that matter, if it did "run" on Android, it would have the same limitations (IE may no...

Re: unzip help

So, if you are just unzipping to use TokenTool 1.x, I DO have a much newer one available at http://tokentool.nerps.net

Just download the setup for Windows (.exe) and run. It'll install it's own Java that is needed and you are good to go. No unzipping needed...
