ETU Degree's of Horror

[Dershem]

Any plans on creating a store purchase for this?

[Mortar]

Yes, but I don't have an exact ETA for you :)

[Dershem]

Buts I has moneys .. and I needs it my precious lol are we talking this year or next year can you narrow it down that much?

[Mortar]

It has been started, so it won't take too long mid-november-ish. I need to add the ish there. How's that for narrowing it down for you?

[Dershem]

Good enough let's me know to plan for after Christmas!

[Mortar]

I'll do my best to get it done in time so its available before Christmas

[Mortar]

Just as a quick update...

Looking good looking forward to this!

[Mortar]

Just a quick update, I missed my self-imposed Christmas deadline, I need to get into see an eye doctor and get me some reading glasses. 10 minutes of reading on any device gives me screaming head aches and sore eyes. I have been trying the el cheapo glasses from Costco or Walmart but they aren't quite up to snuff. I hate this getting old crap.

[David D.]

Thx for the update👍. Looking forward for this😃

[Dershem]

I know the feeling, good luck, hopefully it doesn't take to long to get an appointment!

[Mortar]

Quick update. Got the appointment, waiting on my next penison check to get glasses - but I have ramped up my efforts (helped in no small quantities of ibuprofen)

Done: 1. Ref Manual layout is complete save for the imagery. SmiteWorks got me some of source imagery, so I still need to pull some out the PDF;
2. NPCs are completed and integrated. There are some that are pulled from ETU Dean's List, or SW GM Guide - these ones I am considering deleting their entry from DOH and linking them directly from the relevant source book to save some space in this module.

To Do: 1. Create the various items the baddies have and the gang can get their hands on - that means treasure parcels too (again linking from other sources if warranted);
2. Create the encounters for the cases that I can, there is one case in particular where the GM is encouraged to "go nuts" throwing demons at the gang until he gets bored.
3. Grab the remaining imagery from the PDF compress and integrate them into the module.

So it won't be done for this update tuesday, but it will only be on or two more behind. I made one other formatting decision in regards to the placement of three sidebars in the first chapter. It made more sense for me to combine those in a second subchapter, as they all discussed different topic that its original placement. It just made more sense to me..

The Living Shadow is driving me nuts trying to set up its Shadowbolt power to work with automation, so I'll stew on that while work on the other stuff.

Don't stress with that now. I will see if I can make update im v4.6 to see support custom attack traits. If you need to make it work now set the creature to have super powers and define the skill. Ie. There is no good way to do it atm.

[Talyn]

If I may make a request? For aesthetics, instead of ETD-DOH how about ETU: Degrees of Horror? Looks so much nicer if the library actually has names instead of abbreviations. Otherwise we'd have ETUPG and ETUDL and no one wants that. :)

[Mortar]

Maybe since you asked so nicely :p

[Dershem]

Sweet Glad to hear your making progress, really really itching to run this but I only have time to do a full convert of one game right now!

[Mortar]

This took way too long to to get to this point.....but I got here.

You should use SWEL module checker here instead. It does deeper scan and is able to detect more possible challenges in SavageWorlds product. You can find more info about it from SavageWorlds Content Developer threads.

[Mortar]

It's my luck. I used James' conversion tools as well as your module checker....fixed all errors....check the module on two different computer but still managed to mess it up on the upload for James to review it. All good now....so it will bee in the Soonish.

This was a beast of a plot point campaign, and not going to lie - at times it was frustrating (hadn't realized by that point how bad my eyes had deteriorated over the last year.) Had to suck back and give them a break. When I came to it, I scrapped almost all the work I had done to the point.

I started the serious re-conversion on Friday, 2nd of March, the completed conversion was submitted yesterday.

I am confident that anyone that picks this up and uses it will be pretty happy with it

[twistedtechmike]

Very nice looking work Mortar!

[Mortar]

Thanks! A couple more screen shots to whet your appetite :)

Here's hoping it will make the cut tomorrow :o

[Mortar]

There were some technical difficulties, in that Dropbox did not want to cooperate with us on this one. After multiple file/folder deletes and re-uploads I do think it has been sorted out. Very frustrating.

[Mortar]

From email lokiare1, our friendly project coordinator sent my way yesterday:

This now look good to go. It should show up in our stores within 2 weeks barring problems.

I hope it meets your expectations after taking so long

[twistedtechmike]

Sweet!

[Mortar]

For those that haven't seen it yet, this is now available in the store.
