Ultimate Intrigue Vigilante? #61

Closed yamikuronue closed 7 years ago

yamikuronue commented 8 years ago

I don't see the Vigilante on here for Pathfinder? http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/vigilante

yamikuronue commented 8 years ago

It seems to be in the code under the name Avenger, but I don't see it on the deployed site?

marcus-downing commented 8 years ago

It's still in progress. The Avenger file there was a prototype based on the playtest.

yamikuronue commented 8 years ago

Ah, that's a shame. Is the file format documented someplace? I might be willing to help out :)

marcus-downing commented 8 years ago

The JSON file format isn't documented, though I did make a start on a verifier. It should be reasonably intelligible if you know JSON. The trick is to add both pages (near the top) and classes that use those pages (lower down). For example, the page variant vigilante/avenger corresponds to slot="vigilante" variant="avenger".

btw, this repo has moved. You can find the latest copy here: https://github.com/dyslexic-charactersheets/pages/tree/master/Pathfinder/Ultimate%20Intrigue (I really should add redirects, change the link on the site etc)

Ah, cool. I'm familiar with json. What's a .ai file?

franciscocabral commented 8 years ago

.ai is a adobe Ilustrator file

Ah. I don't have Illustrator. I can help with json-based stuff though if you point me in the right direction :)

Try using InkScape, which is free. It's not as good as the thing that costs a bleeding fortune, of course, but it should at least open the files.

There are some JavaScripts for automating illustrator to do things like exporting all the Illustrator file as PDFs. They get committed to the assets repo, which the website references.

The actual website code is in Scala, using the iTools Java library to do the heavy lifting of the PDFs.

Sorry it's all a bit messy. Partly that's a result of it simply being large, and partly by historical accident. If life were to ever shut up and leave me alone for long enough, I'd reimplement a lot of this to be tidier (and add nice features like saving characters to load later using local storage, or use the tool offline by compositing entirely in JavaScript... not an easy task). But it shows no sign of doing that. :smiley:

Technically, the Scala code serves as documentation of the JSON format. Practically that's over very little use since almost nobody knows Scala.

It took a lot longer than I'd planned, but the Vigilante is done - as are the first batch of archetypes.
