@Canageek rpol.net has a great die roller and good aliasing and private messaging, but no map support. I combine it with maps on a free account on roll20. HTH
@naga Is that still around? I recall seeing it ages ago. Might give it a try.
@Canageek Yep. Hasn't changed much in look since ages ago, but they do continue to upgrade features.
@naga Guess I can revive my Flikr account or use Imgr to host maps that I could make in Roll20, GIMP or Maptools. I recall Maptools being pretty sweet, but I'd have to install Java again for it....
@naga That is what I meant. Make the map, then set each player as a layer in GIMP and move them around. After each turn post the updated map.
My Dad had gigabytes and gigabytes worth of free assets off the Dunjinni forums, and didn't back them up when he changed computers, all gone now :(
@Canageek
Yeah, that would work. I just treat it as a "live" game in Roll20 and let players move their markers on that. Only need to upload once.
But regardless, except for needing an outside mapping tool, rpol is my favorite by far.
@naga I realized that as I wrote the above. That could work.
@Canageek Ah, we do it the other way around. Create a flat map, load it into Roll20, then place icons on the map to move around, use the lighting effects, etc.
