Awesome news Cato!
Very excited for this
I don't have any programming skills, but I would be willing to type in for the data tables if needed:)
Have you decided on which ruleset you will base it?
Colour me interested. Just let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
At this stage, just a character sheet would be awesome
Very pleased to see this,
Thanks, I'm using MoreCore right now to get things started for my group, but official support would be delightful.
I don't think there will be official support from Cubicle 7, but community ruleset is definitely something that should happen :)
Well, I meant unofficial official support. Fantasy grounds really doesn't have all that much official support outside the mega-popular games it seems, which makes sense, as there are a ton of games out there. Still, I've used community rulesets for some of them and they're more than good enough in many cases. A few tweaks aesthetically and you're good to go.
Can't wait to take a look at this one :P
Please use the symbol from the rulebook in the GM portrait, the one with the skull and the cross :)
Thanks :)
I know it might be too early, but I am hungry for something new - do you have mockups to show, pre-pre-pre-alpha? :D
The group I am with is looking to convert from 3rd to 4th as soon as we have a viable ruleset.
I have the pre-release PDF and can start adding rollable tables and equipment lists.
I know basic scripting but the full ruleset is beyond me. I would really like to help with troubleshooting/testing.
Tables and equipment lists, be careful with copyrights... some things can be built for personal use, but can not be shared. Game mechanics only, no decriptions, no art. Makes some tables and gear a shaky line to walk.
Also, do note they have said there will be some big changes to the combat section in the final iteration so maybe hold off on any major work until that's done or you might have to retread a lot of stuff.
Waiting for this ruleset!!!
Any news about the development? Which features would be implemented, barring tables?
I would love to help but I'm a total newb with coding.
Anybody? Anybody?... Hello?/ McFly?...
Umm,... I wouldn't classify my comment as "pushing", "poking", or "prodding". It was actually my attempt to be slightly lighthearted about getting a response from the ORIGINAL message poster of this thread. The fact that the person who originally posted that they were working on a Ruleset for WFRP 4e has not been heard from since that original post back in July (3 months ago) of course begs the question if they are still, or plan to, create one. I thought a little lightheartedness would be better than, "Hey! You still doing this or what?" Because if they aren't it might encourage someone else to potentially start one. Also, this thread might discourage someone from starting one.
So the question still stands: Is the original poster of this thread working on, or planning to work on, a Ruleset for WFRP 4e. There has been a lot of discussion on the WFRP Discord server about VTT for this new game and unfortunately, while several people have inquired about a Fantasy Grounds Ruleset, the Roll20 folks have completely taken over the conversation with updates and images of what is being created and worked on.
I am not only trying to support the very latest edition of a game I love, but also support Fantasy Grounds in having a Ruleset for a fairly popular game knowing that Roll20 folks are moving very quickly with theirs.
I find it somewhat irresponsible to boldly announce the beginning of the creation of a ruleset and then not follow up, at all, for 3 months! I know it takes time to create a ruleset and requires skills that I do not posses, but to go 1/4 of an entire year without ANY updates or even so much as a check in to say "Hi Guys. Progress is slow, but I'm still trying to put this together." borders on rude .. Is it "pushing" to expect maybe at least a once a month "check in" to let those who may be interested in the Ruleset and are following this thread know what is going on? I don't think so. Maybe I'm wrong, who knows?
So I am sorry if you feel I was antagonizing the Original Poster by my comment, but if they aren't working on this anymore, maybe someone else in the community could begin to take the lead on creating one. (Better yet, Maybe one of the owners of Smiteworks could pick up the phone and simply ASK Cubicle7 or GW if they would be interested in creating some OFFICIAL content for their new game on the Fantasy Grounds VTT)
All good.
Roll20 stuff is developed faster - but cannot be programmed to the same depth. The depth takes much longer to code.Quote:

the ruleset is still in progress.Quote:

to put it in context a ruleset often takes a year or longer - sometimes much longer.
its been summer time where the dev lives - maybe they are outside enjoying the sun - they will post an update when they are ready to.
SmiteWorks dont have the available resources to take on another ruleset themselves. Their internal resources are fully allocated to other projects.
Here are a couple of additional screen shots for you.

If it's going to look that good...I for one can be very patient :)
Thanks for using "words" n the Theme vs pictures...I'm old and words are better for me ha ha.
By Sigmar's Beard those screenshots look nice!
Those screenshots look amazing. This is the kind of finesse that won me over from Roll20.
Since this is not an official Smiteworks project, I gather this is a volunteer effort?
If so, have you thought about a patreon for this project? I would love to support the effort in a way I could!
Let's not try to have the guy jailed :)
Maybe, some community developed rulesets are purely volunteer efforts and are released via the forums for free. Some require more licensing and SmiteWorks gets involved in the administration of them (usually not development) and they get placed in the FG Store and a price charged (see C&C for a store example).
I don't think it's been said yet where this one will end up.
some clarification may be required here - I am not involved in the project in any way - Im just sharing some info on it
there is a lot to get through yet before community vs other is decided.
I have no words...the screenshots told everything...
Thank you so much and i hope to see more soon :)
nice
Cato is doing graphics and coding. It is an enormous amount of work. It took me 6 months of work, almost 2-3 hours a night at least 5-6 nights a week to finish 40k Multiset with graphics and coding. With the progress Cato has showed me so far, he has done a lot. The issue is he doesn't visit these forums that much. He is on Discord though. His info is in the first post.
This is the most exciting FG thing ever....
Evening Valyar!
.......I have been building this ruleset based on CoreRPG. As such, any extension that works with CoreRPG should work with my ruleset. For instance, so far I have tested successfully that my ruleset works with dulux-oz's extensions.

Hey Blue Haven!
.......Will do! Just to clarify, is this skull and cross you are referring? If so, I already made my own version based off this for the GM icon! :)

Hey Eternal!
.......To answer your question, this is a solo volunteer effort to create a community (free) ruleset for WFRP 4th edition. I just updated my original post to describe more regarding this project. Also added a part concerning monetary donations.

CatoTheFirstElder
Very nice work! Im impress!
This looks awesome! You should seriously approach Smiteworks when this is ready. Maybe they can show it to the publishers and get an official license. I believe they mentioned something about an official 40k ruleset. I know my group would be interested in using this and would support an official one as well.
Keep up the good work!
Thatīs the skull i like ;)
Iīm amazed with all those pictures :) will you make various backgrounds pics so we can change like the the FG logo? That would be cool :)
Canīt wait to test it out friend :)
Big Hugs :)
Afternoon mate!
.......To clarify, the main background you are seeing is simply a decal. As such, I have provided the option in game to change the decal to various backdrops that I have already premade. Bear in mind, I also plan on doing complete theme overhauls for this ruleset. Lastly, I am more than happy to provide the Photoshop file (.PSD) so the community can make their own creations. Hope this answers your question!

CatoTheFirstElder
P.S. Here is thedecal cycle optionI was talking about.
