    Tips for Games with Both Local and Remote Players

    I use RW for at-table games with everyone co-located. If I wanted to bring in a player who is remote, what are your recommendations? My thought is that I would use Google Hangouts. In good hangouts I would share the second screen (a plasma TV) that I use for the player view during the game...

    Anyone managing nautical encounters in RW?

    DnD 5e doesn't have much crunch to help with nautical combat so I'm relying on older additions and various home-brew systems other GMs have posted on blogs and forums. If you have any simple systems you could recommend I would appreciate it. But what I am really interested in, is how you enter...

    Phrase Express Macros for Realm Works

    Well, it really isn't a macro. It is a sraight up text replacement. See the attached screenshot, which shows a very simple 5e statblock. It is difficult to show how to build a form in one screen shot. I would need to make a step-by-step tutorial. First, I want to complete and test the one I'm...

    Phrase Express Macros for Realm Works

    Based on discussions on other threads, there is some interest in discussing how to use Phrase Express to help automate tasks in RealmWorks. PhraseExpress is a text expander and universal-macro program that is free for personal use. http://www.phraseexpress.com/freeware.htm There are other...

    Anyone using Syrinscape?

    In today's monthly e-mail newsletter, RW announced they have a partnership with Syrinscape and will release an update after Gen Can that will allow you to play Syrinscape sounds from RW if you have Syrinscape installed on your computer: While I'm not a fan adding more tech complexity to the...

    Weather and Microclimates

    How are you all dealing with weather and climate in RW? Up to now, I've pretty much just fudged it. Either making it entirely up or using very simple random weather tables. I want to be able to offer something richer and more "realistic" without creating much work for myself. Below is my planned...

    International Keyboards Not Supported

    I don't know that I want to familiarize myself with yet another keyboard when the United States-International works everywhere else. I think that the US INT and ENG INT should be the same thing, but I'm not sure why it would have different initials on your machine (maybe because you have a...

    International Keyboards Not Supported

    I was trying to use the English-International keyboard so that I could easily type diacritical marks on letters and found out that I couldn't. Say I want to type: Incáno. Using the ENG INTL keyboard (I'm using Windows 8), I type the letters "I" and "n" as normal, and then I type a single quote...

    Tag Suggestions

    Below is a screen shot of how I've set up my spell article template. The difference is that I've created a bunch of separate spell-related tags. Basically each field has its own custom tag. I like how your approach keeps all spell attributes in one place. First I thought that it would affect...

    Content Developers Forum

    When the CM goes live, will there be a separate forum for content developers? Well, we are *all* content developers if we are using this tool, but I mean those who would like to share or sell their content via the CM. I think it would be really helpful to have a separate forum for this, so...

    What do you do with idea topics after you use them?

    Just curious how others are using "idea" topics. I use them to job down quick ideas, which I often revisit multiple times to flesh out more. But after I "use them" by, for example, creating the adventure based on the idea, I've been deleting the idea topics. The way I use them, I don't have...

    Using Topic/Article Views for Session Prep

    Originally, I thought I would use topic/article views for greating regional and location views, but the limit on the number of views doesn't really allow for this and strategic use of topics works better for this. So, what I'm using the topic and article views for is to put together all the...

    Spell and Monster Organization

    I did the same thing. The "overview" section of my spell articles are, for the most part, just tags. This allows me to slice and dice them in the filters easily. I just have all my spells under the spell category, appearing alphabetically. I like what you did with the lists, but to me it...

    Twin Cities RealmWorks User Group

    I've meet one DM from these boards IRL and will be meeting with another soon. I find it valuable to get together with other DMs and show and discuss how we are using RW. If there is anyone else on these boards in the Twin Cities that would be interested, PM me. Meeting place would be The Source...

    Feature request ranking system vs. submitting via forum

    Given the complexity of the product and the number of feature requests, wouldn't it be easier for LWD to use something GetSatisfaction to submit and rank feature requests. First, it limits you to a number of points/votes so you have to be really think about what you want the developers to focus...

    Rivers and Roads

    I would be interested in knowing if anyone creates topics for specific rivers. None of the out-of-the-box topics are ideal for rivers as a single river can span many regions and geopolitical areas. At the same time, a river can have important strategic, political, and religious significant to...

    Organizing Pantheons

    I feel like this has been addressed before but didn't pull anything up when searching for it. How are other organizing pantheons in their realms? I made a "deities" topic by duplicating and customizing the entities topic. I use relationships to show how different deities are related and to...

    Bulk Edit (Feature Request)

    It would be great if we could select multiple topics or articles and bulk apply tags to them. Other bulk edits what would be nice to have would be if I could bulk add a snippet or section, bulk add/edit prefixes and suffixes, and other bulk-edit functionality. Nothing pressing, just nice to have.

    Bulk Edit

    Am I correct in that there is no way to bulk edit topics and articles or bulk apply tags? For example, I would like to select multiple articles and apply a tag to all selected articles. I scanned over and searched all the manuals and played around a bit but didn't find anything that seemed to...

    Set Field Defaults

    I would like certain tags and fields to have default values. There are times where I have to enter in a large number of articles for which certain fields could have a number of different values, but 90% of the time will be a specific value. It would save time if the most common value could be...
