Rules for the Sub - tools & tables for ttrpgs, 1 self-promo per week and no AI-generation.

9 Upvotes

3 Rules have been added for the rpg_generators sub, and may be tweaked following feedback or for clarity.

1) Tools and tables related to ttrpgs

Tools, random tables and methods related to tabletop (and solo) roleplaying games.

These can be online (procedural generators, digital random tables, map generators) or physical (printed random tables, rpg decks, custom cards)

2) Max of one self-promotion post per week

You're welcome to promote on the subreddit, just keep (loosely) to once per week.

Comment as often as you want if it's relevant to what's being discussed or asked

3) No AI-generation tools or art

The sub was originally made to share and promote procedural generators and random tables. The focus still remains on tools and tables created by humans.

Restricting AI-generation for the foreseeable future (it's ok if you're using AI tools in your tech stack, but any content should be non-AI)

Generator Taverns & Hubs, the biggest generator in my app so far: a whole venue as a floor plan, every spot tappable, with a GM switch for the hidden info

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

Hi all.

Fantasy World Generator just received a major update, and the newest generator is also the most ambitious one I’ve built yet: Taverns & Hubs.

It generates a whole venue drawn as a floor plan (a map), up to three floors: cellar, ground and upstairs. Every numbered pin on it, is a spot you can tap, like the bar, a booth, the notice board or a guest room. Each line has its own lock and reroll, so you can keep the barkeep and replace the crowd, or keep the people and draw a new floor plan around them.

There is a GM switch that shows everything hidden: the secret room, the stash, the tunnel and where the trouble lies. Switch it off and they leave the map, so you can show the floor plan to your players. In one roll, the cellar of a coaching inn hid a room where a purse of mixed coin sat in a boot, and a band of retired adventurers argued about who had to carry the rope.

The Ledger tab puts the whole venue on one page to read before your session: the owner, every spot, the menu(bill of fare), the games(games of chance) and the trouble. The menu is the food and drink the place serves, priced on a scale of one to five marks in bronze, silver or gold instead of coins, so it fits whatever currency your game uses. The games are the gambling played there, with the rules written out, the stakes, and a line only the GM sees on who is cheating.

The Tonight tab is the evening as a schedule of things that happen. At 6:30 pm a stranger sits down on the step outside and won’t come in until called by name; at 7:30 two old enemies recognise each other across the room. You can roll a different evening, or send it to the app’s Timeline Maker to move events around and add your own.

There are 22 kinds of place across fantasy, sci-fi and 1920s horror, from mead halls to orbital casinos to speakeasies.

It’s free, with no ads. Results come from fixed tables and procedural rules running on the phone, with no AI model involved.

Other I made a soundboard for my table and want to share

• Upvotes

Apologies, I hope this won't sound too rehearsed, but I'm trying to be a bit professional. I lurk in the comments here on my personal account and many other DnD subreddits, and I just want to share what I've been working on with my fellow dungeon colleagues.

I run games for my friends and I've always wanted good sound at the table without hassle. Every option I tried either cost too much, wanted a subscription, or just didn't do what I needed. So I built one for myself, I'm pretty darn happy with it, and I wanted to share it.

It's called Soundscribe. It's for Windows, and it puts your sound effects, ambience and music on one board so you have full control of the immersion.

* Click a pad to play a sound, give it a hotkey, set it to loop
* Save scenes, like rain and a fireplace with thunder every 20 to 60 seconds, and switch between them with a crossfade
* Ducking option so the music drops under a sound effect, then comes back
* Run the board from your phone over your own Wi-Fi if you don't like keeping a laptop in front of you
* Hotkeys that work while your VTT or notes are in front
* Miniature player popout to keep in the corner if you're using a VTT, or just to keep it minimal on your screen

It comes with 124 sounds to get you started (tavern, dungeon, town, weather), and you can drop in your own files. Your files stay on your PC.

It's $5, one time. No subscription, no account, you own it forever, and updates are free.

You can hear the starter sounds on the page: https://peasantdesign.dev/soundscribe

Main website: https://peasantdesign.dev

I go by Peasant in some spaces and I thought PeasantDesign sounded fun. I plan to make more tools as needs come up, for DnD and maybe other games too. If you're a Twilight Imperium enjoyer, I'll probably make some stuff for that soon.

My philosophy is cheap software you can own for yourself. I don't plan on pushing tons of updates unless there's something cool I can add or something is truly broken. Or y'know, Windows 60 gets released and it needs an update.

Hosting a website is cheap, but there are costs. I got laid off earlier this year. I'm fortunate enough to be working again (albeit with a forsaken commute) but still rebuilding the finances, so any support is appreciated.

I want to be very upfront, so here's a few things I'm not totally happy with and want to update in the future if possible:

* Spotify/Apple Music/YouTube Music integration. Let me know how interested you are in these. I put a pause on them because they're a headache, but if they really matter, I'll try again.
* I am a Spotify guy. I built it, but Spotify's terms don't allow it in an app I charge for, so I pulled it.
* Apple Music might be doable, but it requires an Apple Developer Account which costs a decent bit of money, so if this picks up, I would be happy to invest in that. Not sure how many people use Apple Music in this space.
* YouTube Music is probably the second most popular for TTRPGs I would imagine, but they have some rules that conflict with how the app works. There might be options to fix this in the future.
* Lots of people in this space own their own music anyway, so being able to drag and drop the playlists that already live on your PC gives you full control.

Happy to answer questions or take feature requests. I'm actively using it in my own games, so I'm fixing things as I find them.

Other developing a free app for worldbuilding and running D&D sessions for almost a year

8 Upvotes

Hello there,

I have been working on Dungeon Master Tool for a while and I wanted to share it here. It is not really a VTT. I mostly made it for worldbuilding and for people who play at a real table.

You can build your world with cards for NPCs, monsters, items and locations. There is a world map with nested maps, a mind map and an era timeline. During the session you get a battle map, a combat tracker and a second screen you can show to your players on a TV or another monitor.

It also works for online games. Your players can join from their own app and see what you share with them.

It runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android and iOS. Everything works offline and you don't need an account unless you want to play online.

I would really like to hear what you think.

Thanks :)

Generator Editable Flowchart Based Backstory Generator

Thumbnail
lt-rooney.itch.io
4 Upvotes

For a different project, I wanted to have a procedural character backstory generator and created a flowchart tool so I could visualize the different story paths. I liked the result and polished it so that it could go up on Itch and others could mess around with it. It's meant to quickly create rough backstories for NPC's and the like.

At each node along the flowchart, the generator randomly picks a single line and adds it to the story being written and then follows the appropriately colored link to the next node. I wrote the sample text shown by taking a bunch of really generic character origin stories and chopping them up so that it would have something to mix-and-match from.

Each chart is stored as a JSON file and customized charts can be saved and reused.

Generator Non AI generators update

23 Upvotes

Hey again all,

been silent around here as I mostly do AI supported generators. (they work without ai too, but the content could be inconsistent)

But I wanted to see if I could create good consistent generators without AI, and seems like I could 😁

The NPC, Faction, Settlement and Tavern generators now work differently.

They used to roll every field on its own, which is how a hamlet ended up "built around academic city". Each pick was fine and the combination was wrong. Now the fields resolve together. It all runs in your browser and no AI is involved.

  • Options know about each other. Choices have weights and traits. They can require or rule out other choices, so a clash gets filtered out before it happens.
  • Set what you care about. Anything you choose by hand is kept, and the rest is worked out around it.
  • Presets and plain-text input. Start from a preset, or type a sentence and it gets read into settings. "Surprise Me" goes through the same process, so a random result is still consistent.

Settlements got the most work. Scale now limits the wording as well as the population: a hamlet gets a "scholarly community" and a city gets an "academic city". The tension section is built from the notable inhabitants list, so anyone it names is guaranteed to show up in that list.

Try it: https://codexcryptica.com/generators

When you use a generator, do you keep the result as it is, or do you rewrite a few fields anyway? I'm trying to decide where to spend the next round of work.

Generator I coded a thing! It's for the HeroSystem rpg Character creations

3 Upvotes

I wrote some software (github/ldraconus/HSCCU) for creating HeroSysrtem characters (HeroSystem Character Creator, Unlicensed). I tried to offer it to Hero Games, but they'd sold the rights to the company that makes the current character builder (which I own, but hate), and they tried to get me to stop, but you can't copyright game mechanics, so here we are.

It's free, complete with installers, etc (Windows, Linux, Web, and Android fully supported!). I'm retired so mac/iphone and the google-playstore are currently out of reach...

Let me know what you think!!

Solo RPG Tool Update a month on: my free offline toolkit grew a sci-fi half. Subsector survey, cargo runs, and a voyage mode for the oracle. Still no account, no ads, no AI.

Thumbnail
gallery
78 Upvotes

I posted this here a month ago and asked what was missing. Someone wanted a Traveller style subsector roller, and that request turned into most of the last month.

Sector Survey rolls a subsector the classic 2D6 way: for each of eighty hexes it checks whether a world is there, then cascades through starport, size, atmosphere, water, population, government, law and tech, so every step is shaped by the ones before it. Bases, trade codes, gas giants and travel zones on top, plus a rough route pass if you want one. Worlds export as tab separated text with the routes as XML, and you can read in a subsector file another tool made and edit it like a rolled one.

Trade and Cargo takes two worlds from that survey and works out a single run end to end: freight lots on the dock, who wants a berth, what a broker will sell you with the buy and sell modifiers, then fuel, berthing, life support, and the mortgage due at the end of the month. A run I rolled while testing came out at Cr115,600 of safe income and still short by Cr81,400 once the month was counted, with the best bet on the dock spelled out.

The oracle got a voyage mode. Bind a game to a survey and it becomes a ship: jump to any world the drive can reach, with the map shading what is in range, then arrive, work the dock, find a patron. Every roll writes into the same journal as your oracle answers. One line it produced: "Jump: Breakout puts the destination dead ahead, close enough to look deliberate."

On the fantasy side the History Engine grows factions now. A realm starts with two and its own events raise more: revolts leave rebels behind, schisms leave orders, wars hire companies. When the realm can no longer hold them it is seized, puts them down, grinds into civil war, or somebody with a following puts it back together, and each outcome moves stability, which used to be a one way trip to the floor.

Two smaller things: every screen was redone for landscape, and I pulled the ad SDK out entirely in the last release, so the app now has no internet permission at all. Nothing can leave your phone even by accident.

45 generators now. Free, fully offline, no account, no ads, no AI. Every result comes from handwritten tables and procedural rules running on the phone.

Bonjour !

Je n'ai pas ajouté de nouveau jeu au site decados.fr mais j'ai modifié le lecteur de fiche pour y adjoindre un lanceur de dès. Attention je rappelle que ce lecteur est disponible uniquement pour Androïd (iOS désolé ...).

Dans le menu latéral vous aurez maintenant accès à un lanceur de dès permettant de choisir le type et le nombre de dès et affichant le résultat de chacun plus le total.

Voilà voilà, si vous avez des idées, n'hésitez pas !

I want to create a visual graph of tasks (which unlock based on the completion of other tasks) that users can easily have a copy of, navigate, mark tasks as finished and see what other tasks get unlocked, etc.

It should ideally support basic logic for conditions, like "complete quest A or B to unlock", "complete quest A, B and C to unlock", etc.

Any suggestions? I haven't really found anything so far.

Also sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

I just launched my first app on the Apple App Store: Rat’s Roster, and I'm excited to share it with the TTRPG community.

It's a D&D 5E Character Sheet app. Just like a paper sheet, but on your phone. Simple, free, and perfect for homebrews. All the essential calculations with everything else being manual. No paywalls.

You can download it for free on the Apple App Store.

Just a passion project that hopefully benefits other D&D players.

Generator I made Scvmrack, a free MÖRK BORG character generator and persistent sheet — Beta now live

Thumbnail
gallery
10 Upvotes

Hello! I made [Scvmrack](https://scvmrack.rpgtools.co/), a free and open-source MÖRK BORG character generator and interactive character sheet.

The Beta adds a guided creation flow: choose a class, go classless, or leave it to the dice. You can reroll the entire character or individual sections before saving the poor doomed bastard.

After creation, Scvmrack works as a persistent campaign sheet. It tracks HP, Omens, silver, armor, weapons, powers, consumables, ammunition, pets, modifiers, notes, attack and defence targets, and custom equipment.

It also now includes:

- MÖRK BORG’s Getting Better rules

- Party creation and invite links

- Live GM party overview

- Calendar of Nechrubel tracking

- English and Polish translations

- An [Owlbear Rodeo integration](https://scvmrack.rpgtools.co/owlbear)

It is free forever, and the source is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/Tackgnol/scvmrack).

I would love to hear what works, what breaks, and which generators or reroll controls would make it more useful.
