Started a Rippers campaign tonight (as a player!).

So that meant I HAD to create a new theme :D

Not done much yet...

Very nicely done. How do you handle having a tiling background with the one logo in the center?

Nice theme! Mind if we include that with the Rippers download as well?

https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7903&highlight=desktop discusses it better than I could.

Basically you have one image on the left and a decal on the right, then update the relevant xml file (varies on rule set) to set the co-ordinates.

I do not know it will be good enough!

And it's not finished.

But if you want to...

It's basically done, can anyone remind me how the <framedef> code works, as some of the textures are mapping correctly.

I understand how the top bottom left right bits work, just not sure how the numbers go.

I think <topleft rect="0,0,85,110" /> means start at 0,0 and move x 85 and y 110. but I to be sure.

This should help you out:
Control positioning (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/modguide/windowing.xcp) > Control positioning

The x coordinate (horizontal position of the left edge)
The y coordinate (vertical position of the top edge)
The width of the control
The height of the control

Updated this for our upcoming game, added Reason and Status to the character sheet.

Also made another version that uses Sanity instead (as hinted as will be the case in Rippers Deluxe Edition)

Since I am playing a Rippers / Realms of Cthulhu hybrid right now, I thought it would be nice to make the derived stats portion of the character sheet easier to add to. It seems like a lot of the custom stats for different SW campaigns could be accounted like that. (i.e. Sanity / Corruption for RoC, Status / Reason for Rippers, etc.)

Cheers,
