Feel free to point me towards more buried treasure!

Added links to stuff for:
Ars Magica
Cyberpunk 2020
Witcher
All Flesh Must Be Eaten
Conan 2d20
Fragged Empire
Spirit of 77
7th Sea
Serenity RPG
All For One Regime Diabolique

Can anyone point me towards how to install these? Also, are there any licensing requirements?

Just to be clear, I'm interested in the Ars Magica one...

There are all the ones on the main page of the Wiki.
There's the Star Trek Adventures (2d20) ruleset and extension.

@Ferghis: If the ruleset has been zipped up into a .pak file, you drop that into the rulesets folder of the Fantasy Grounds data folder. The link to your data folder is the folder icon in the top right of the screen when you start the Fantasy Grounds launcher. Modules (.mod) files go in the modules folder. Extensions (.ext) in the extensions folder. Some of the older community rulesets may not be a .pak file. You an either rename it yourself, or unzip to the rulesets folder and have a subfolder there with the ruleset name. As long as the base.xml file is in the top level of the zip archive or the subfolder, it should work.

Hi Ferghis there are two Ars Magica entries.
Follow the link to the files.

One version is Oberotens and you can find it here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/...et:_Ars_Magica (edit: thanks Valarian)
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/filel.../ArsMagica.pak
Download the file and place it in the /rulesets directory and reload Fantasy Grounds.
Create a new Campaign and choose the Ars Magica ruleset.

The other version is by Superteddy57 and is an extension for MoreCore
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/...eset:_MoreCore
Download the MoreCore ruleset https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...reCore-Ruleset and place it in the /rulesets directory and reload Fantasy Grounds.
Download the Ars Magica extension https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...l=1#post405174 and place it in the /extensions directory and reload Fantasy Grounds.
Create a new Campaign and choose the MoreCore ruleset and activate the MoreCore - Ars Magica extension.
There will be a new update hopefully this weekend for this one with new theme and with more Skill support.

Attachment 24932

I will be updating the Ars Magica MoreCore extension this week with some improvements to the code with the updated theme (Thanks Damned!). Be on the look out for it and will be active with it till I can get it to almost full automation. If you have questions please reach out to me through the forums or you can reach out to me in discord as well.

Wow. Thanks, guys. I really appreciate it: those look pretty cool. I'm assuming these are API-dependent, so they need a non-free license to use. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

There's no API restriction based on license.

The big thing with a free license is that you can't really use it to GM (as you can't save campaign data), but you can use it to view/demo non-DLC rulesets - including the community ones listed in this thread and elsewhere. The restriction of a free license for players, is that they can only join games hosted by a GM with an Ultimate license or create/edit characters in Manage Characters mode.

That's not one of mine. Oberoten built the Ars Magica ruleset.

I think that, in order to demo/view a ruleset in the unlicensed (free) version, you need to have a prepared campaign folder generated in a Full or Ultimate version. I don't think the demo will generate a campaign on its own.

"Create Demo Campaign" is available in the free version. It doesn't save any data, but it does allow you to look at the ruleset functionality.

For the MoreCore ruleset and its extension rulesets you can add a fair amount of game data to the PCs and you can export those even with a Demo version.
You can create and use any other data in that session only as you cannot save any other data.

The Free Client can also use Manage Characters to create/edit PCs in supported rulesets.

Ive added links in for a few more systems.

Fall of Delta Green
Shadowrun 5E
Shadow of the Demon Lord
Esoterrorists

Added Doctor Who

Can you add mine to the list as well?

Im so sorry I missed your post! Ive belatedly updated the list!

Is anyone working on Exalted 3rd Edition, by any chance? Or Marvel Heroic Roleplaying (I've seen a character sheet for it)?

Any chance the Alien RPG can get its own forum room? The thread linked here goes to the thread where the guy writing the ruleset is doing his development work and hunting down bugs, it’s not really a place for us to share ideas and content.

FWIW, I think the game system is going places, and a dedicated space for us to chat about it and FG would help us build the community for it within FG much easier.

Preface all threads with [Alien RPG] perhaps? They don't usually make a separate forum until they have a licensed ruleset and books.

Searching the FG store, I couldn’t find BRP, GURPS, or Traveller books? Are they really selling books for ALL those forum rooms under Game Systems?

And, is that really the roadblock? It would be a bummer to learn the only way to get our own room would be not in the hands of the community, but left to the odds of business dealings :(

Appending every post with [Alien RPG] is a sub-par solution, as we can’t expect new folks to know the protocol there, and it still puts them in the sea of other posts non-relevant. Do I need to start a petition? Reach a certain number of posts? Host a game to show that it rocks!? Tell us, oh great and powerful OZ, what must we achieve to be granted our forum independence?

BRP - https://www.fantasygrounds.com/store...ic+Roleplaying
There are many supplements currently in the store and I have personally just upgraded the ruleset to 3.0 standards.

GURPS - I don't believe we sell anything related to GURPS. This has been a forum as long as I have been a member and has slowly faded off over the years.

MGT1E - https://www.fantasygrounds.com/store/?sys=23&sort=1
1E and 2E share the same code and only has slight variations. 1E shares the forum with 2E.

We don't currently separate forums based on every system unless it garners enough of a popularity to receive it's own forum. This is why the CoreRPG and Other Systems forum is used primarily for community creations and CoreRPG related questions and best practice is to use the brackets to signify what system is being covered. You can see this with MoreCore. It currently has a huge following and there isn't a splinter for that project, as an example. There are constant discussions on changes and improvements to the forums within the organization, but nothing to report as of yet. You may email [email protected] to voice your concerns and suggestions as well to petition Alien RPG have it's own subforum. We always welcome our community's thoughts and concerns.

Thanks for your reply on the matter, I really do appreciate it!

...

Then I think GURPS is our platform to point at and request a room of our own! If GURPS can have one- so can we! *busts out markers and posterboard for picket sign making*

I'll send them an email, and if I have to go around gathering signatures I suppose I will...
I always feel defeated whenever I email a support line- something about the dismissive nature of it all "Thanks for your feedback! We value it, but you'll never hear from us again!"

I'll send my email, and I will keep asking around on the forums, and maybe someday it'll get annoying enough that we'll get our own room! I mean, an extra forum room under game systems isn't going to inconvenience the rest of the community, will it?

Well like I said we are constantly discussing improvements to the forums and just waiting on the strategy on how to move forward. I believe the one thing is our support crew does a great job funneling the requests and concerns to the proper channels or handle it themselves. This kind of topic does make it to my inbox and others as well. So even the coding side gets involved. Your voice is heard :)

Thanks Superteddy57, your speedy replies have illustrated just how responsive the team is :)

I sent my email to the support line at Smiteworks, and in the meantime I'll keep refreshing the forums page to see if we have a shiny new room! (and I am not a morecore guy, but I think they should be thrown a bone too, while we are at it!)

Well you should see the new look :)

Yeah! That’s what’s UP! I can’t wait to tell the fellas!

And everyone else got one too! DRINKS FOR ALL MY FRIENDS!!! :)

Thanks so much, this should be really helpful!

Also... that was FAST. I barely had time to get any signatures on my petition! ;)

I like the new layout a LOT. All the D&D under one roof, all the games with their own rooms- CLEAN.

Glad you approve. Enjoy the new layout

<insert grognard gumbling here> also <insert get off my lawn gif here> and <insert old man yelling at cloud meme here>

:D

Added Mythras to OP

I know its been some time since this thread's been made , but I got a question....
I made characters for Rogue Trader using the W40KCG and it doesnt allow conversion to xml
or even can xfer the character data to your ruleset..(rather unity).I also see n option to create characters
through the engine...

How do you actually create or transfer RT characters to your campaign?

Thanks in advance

Jump in and post your question on one paulpratts warhammer threads you will likely get a better answer there.
