A few things we want tested:

Please also comment with what you'll focus on!

git-steve-git commented 1 year ago

Figured out the gulp thing, got it running.

I've been using Foundry for around 2-3 years now, primarily to run a 5e campaign that has been going throughout that time. I've also dabbled with some other systems, but not nearly as much as I've used 5e.

I'd be happy to focus on going through the compendia to look for errors or discrepancies between those and the QS rules. I'll play around with other stuff too, of course. I can't really help with localization as English is the only language among those included that I speak.

skotothalamos commented 1 year ago

Hi!

I've been using Foundry since day one of public release and have run 5e, pf2e, Savage Worlds, and Alien in it, so I've seen some various solutions to sheets, die rolls, et cetera. I've done very basic coding of rule elements and active effects inside the game systems to homebrew items, but I am not a programmer.

I would love to be able to help test. I can focus on pretty much anything besides localization, but if I had to pick a single area, it would be sheets.

ZurielRedux commented 1 year ago

I have plenty of foundry experience with a wide variety of OSR and OSR-adjacent systems.

I also have a software dev background.

As far as testing, I can focus on anything other than localization.

WisdomOfWombats commented 1 year ago

I would love to volunteer for a closed alpha. I‘ve been using Foundry since 2021, building my own systems with sandbox system builder and custom system builder as well as using a variety of different systems. My GMing background has a strong emphasis on DnD 5e, but I also GM OSR systems. I‘ve already used the CSB to implement my own version of Shadowdark.

My professional background is in Software Requirements Engineering for web-based applications.

Also, I could give feedback on the German localization.

Basically I could focus on all listed areas. I also have a group eager to try the system.

git-steve-git commented 1 year ago

OK, so I've gone through the compendia. Should I create a ticket with my findings?

bakbakbakbakbak commented 1 year ago

@git-steve-git : Yes please!

JungTravGod commented 1 year ago

I've used Foundry for several years and have used it for all my 5E D&D games - even in person using a TV as a game table.

I have a decent amount of knowledge regarding how Foundry's systems are intended to function, as well as a minor background in both language editing and UI design.

jerry2478 commented 1 year ago

I would live to get in on this. Was going to hack 5e to play my upcoming campaign. I've been using foundry for 3 years to play various (ItO,several PbtA, OSE, MoSh, and a few other one shots) games.

bakbakbakbakbak commented 1 year ago

Just to give you an update, we are getting close to having all features we want for the alpha test to start. I believe it is only the NPC sheets left that is system-specific!

Shunkleburger commented 1 year ago

Hello! I have been using foundry for around 3 years now. Used more systems than I can count. Would like to be included in the alpha and give feedback

AKADragonfly commented 1 year ago

Hi! I’m relatively new to Foundry, but I’ve already created a basic sheet for a Champions Now game that I’m setting up and I’m very excited about Shadowdark. I’m happy to give your sheet a test drive and give you a relative newbie’s perspective, if you think that would be helpful.

WinstonCPope commented 1 year ago

I've used Foundry both as a GM and a player for 5E, DCC, and a little Lancer and Mausritter for the past 2 years or so. I don't have a software background, but I do manage product in my real life job. I would love to try out the ShadowDark Foundry. (I'm planning to use Foundry ShadowDark for a charity stream in May, if possible.)

mgarski commented 1 year ago

I've been using Foundry for 5E and would love to help test Shadowdark's system. I can review compendium items if that helps.

akaCookie commented 1 year ago

No dev experience but have GMed a 5e game in Foundry the last 3 years and been a PC in another for 2 of those years. Sheets/rolling is what I would play with first but up for proofing compendium if that is most needed.

Looks like we have our first release to test: https://github.com/Muttley/foundryvtt-shadowdark/releases/tag/release-0.9.0

AKADragonfly commented 1 year ago

This is great news! Thanks so much for sharing this. Can you walk me through the installation process?

All the best,

Hmmm...

I thought I'd figured it out, but I got an error message when I entered the manifest URL into the installer. Here's a screenshot of what I'm seeing:

Hi there,

I'm loving this character sheet! Too bad I'm a game master and not a player. I just rolled a BADASS 1st level Half Orc fighter!

I imagine that you already know this, but here are things I'm having issues with:

  1. It took me a second to figure out that I was supposed to type the talent name in the space where it says "New Talent," but that's not a big deal. I can type the info for the individual talents just fine in the options provided, but I can't add the effects of talents to the rest of the sheet. For example, Brolga (my Half Orc fighter) has Mighty (which gives a +1 Hit and +1 Damage to Melee attacks), but I can't figure out how to get it to express on the Melee Attacks section of the sheet.
  2. I see that I can designate whether a talent comes from ancestry, class, or level (which is cool), but I can't figure out what to do with the Talent Type(s) option that sits under Talent Class. Hovering under that gives me a box to click on, which opens up a whole host of options that I can click on, but nothing seems to happen when I click on Save after making my selections.
  3. The "Level" option under talents seems redundant to me, as technically all talents are related to a class level. Maybe I'm not understanding what you have in mind for this?
  4. There doesn't seem to be a way to add the Hauler bonus to gear slots on the inventory page.

That's it for now! I'll keep playing around with it and sending feedback as I go.

All the best,

Aldo

Muttley commented 1 year ago

Thanks for the feedback:

  1. It's easiest to drag the talent you want from the Talents compendium, that way all the Active Effects are set up for you.
  2. See 1.
  3. It's for sorting the list and so you can remember what level you took the talent at.
  4. Drag the Hauler talent from the compendium (see 1).

We really need some system documentation, maybe that pops up first time you start a new world.

HTH. :)

bakbakbakbakbak commented 1 year ago

I can work on a Guide when I'm working on setting up the tests for Sheets and that level. I did put together a PoC for it for OSE already, and the biggest pain is finding all the DOM elements for it :) #139

AKADragonfly commented 1 year ago

Ah! All of that worked like a charm! Brolga is now complete, and all elements are working well. I'm going to generate more characters and I'll let you know if I come across anything else that's confusing, but this is freaking AMAZING!

All the best,

Actually, it seems that the Half-Orc's Mighty isn't adding the +1 damage to melee weapons. However, it IS adding the +1 to hit with melee weapons.

It's either the Mighty or the Weapon Mastery (longsword). She should have a +4 hit (which she does), but a +2 damage. She's only showing +1 damage.

Muttley commented 1 year ago

Just a heads up. I've made changes to the way the Stout effect is applied to fix the problem with manually changing the Max HP. What this will mean is that you will need to delete the Stout talent from any characters added it to, and then re-add the updated version from the compendiums.

Once we go live this sort of thing will be handled by a proper upgrade process, but I've not written that yet, so it's manual all the way for now. ;)

AKADragonfly commented 1 year ago

Hey there,

It's weird, but now Mighty isn't working at all. It WAS giving me a +1 to hit (but not to damage). Now it's not giving me anything at all.

That is very weird, I just tried it out on a fresh character in a fresh world, and it is working. Are you using the pre-defined Mighty talent from the compendium? And have you updated to the latest version?

AKADragonfly commented 1 year ago

Hello there,

I am indeed using the predefined Mighty talent from the compendium. I'm dragging and dropping it as you suggested. I'm doing the same with the other talents, and they're working just fine.

I uninstalled the game, started a new one, and reentered Brolga. Unfortunately, I'm having the same issue.

The only thing I can think is that I'm not updating to the most recent version correctly? To update, I went to the Game Systems tab, went to the Shadowdark RPG system, and clicked Update. Should I uninstall the system and reinstall it? If so, is it the same manifest URL as before?

Sorry for the confusion.

All the best,

Aldo

I just uninstalled the game system, reinstalled it using the same manifest URL as before, opened the second game that I'd made to reenter Brolga, and she's still having the same problem - she gets +1 hit but not +1 damage.

I then created a new character (Orko), gave him two different weapons (Greatsword and Longsword), added Mighty - same thing.

I then created a new game entirely, created a new character with a mace, added Mighty ... same thing.

Am I updating (or re-installing) incorrectly?

All the best,

No it sounds like you're doing it correctly. Can you check the console if something is wrong there? I am unable to reproduce your problem as you're describing it unfortunately.

Muttley commented 1 year ago

Closing as we're going to go live soon. Any further issues can be raised as tickets and get put into the next release

AKADragonfly commented 1 year ago

Hello again,

By the console, do you mean the gears on the menu bar that take me to configure settings, etc.? If so, I don't see any issues there.

HOWEVER, I've taken a closer look and I have some "good news" and some "bad news".

That's good, but folks will be confused (and even suspicious) if it doesn't display correctly. I know that some of my players will see that and want to do a full audit of every roll. (That's more of a ME problem, I know.) :-)

All the best,

Aldo
