You can get cheap second monitors which are powered by the USB port and also plug into the video port on your laptop. I use one of those when GMing.

Monitor's is not an issue, I have a half a dozen monitors in my closet. It's a place to put them that would be the issue. My place, using my TV and a wireless HDMI adapater works great. The 2 friends houses I play at do not have anywhere to put a monitor (small room, small table) laptops take up all the space, would be nice to use the laptops for this.

That is the current implementation. But their website is not selling an "offline database" that can be shared with others.

I think it's rather libel that is going on here. Would be careful in your position to use somewhat technical terms.. I would recommend proper research (e.g. on this forum) BEFORE spending 50 bucks.
That said, I support your request for instant sync but not the way you make it. |

I actually have read the forums here quite a bit before buying. I just did not hit on the threads that talked about no live updates, and it's only 50 bucks. How hard do you research something before you spend $50? |

If you are unhappy, they have (had?) some kind of refund policy. So no harm done. (But you have to do some research again). I'll have a quick look as well.

Maybe I'm a little sensitive. You can choose among reasons: I am a lawyer, I am German, I don't want people to think this company is commiting some sort of fraud what will cause them to not buy the product what ultimately will lead to LWDs bankruptcy and me not being able to enjoy Realm Works and Herolab anymore... Ok, that is not likely to happen, but I hope I made my point clear :-D Quote:
This by the way is not meant to be offensive. I just think it is your responsibility to make sure things you buy are worth it and I don't see LWD is "tricking" anybody |

I will still use it and turn my laptop around as needed. Just not as convenient as I was expecting it to be. |

Well, sorry, that about being worth it was kind of redundant as you already made clear that you think it is worth it. I only wanted to point out that it is not you personally but the unawareness of the "blurry grey line" that is between critique and accusation that people sometimes have what causes a slightly passionate comment of mine in this thread
That's it. Over and out. PS: I hope you will have fun :-D That's why we're here. |
