This project is a web-based Virtual TableTop system, that allows easy creation of maps and characters for RPG like games.
Can be easily used either locally, with a multi-monitor setup, or remotely, over the web, with players receiving updates in real-time.
This project is currently in a work-in-progess state, with frequent updates.
- Map creation where you can easily add multiple layers, each of which can be separately toggled for visibility, allowing hidden tokens, simple doors/windows, multi-levelled maps, and much more.
- Character creation, so you can easily reuse monsters, NPCs and players across maps.
- Dynamic, top-down, ray-traced, vector based lighting system, allowing for more atmospheric looking maps.
- Multi-track Audio system that synchronises audio across all clients.
- Tree-based sorting system for images, audio, characters, and maps to make finding your assets and creations easier.
- Customisable, Window based layout system.
- Key binding to many of the features allowing quicker access to tools
- Internationalisation support built in, allowing for easy translation of all text.
- Plug-in architecture allowing new features to be implemented without changing the base code, or restricting the possibility of other, non-core features.
- And much, much more.
