This is whats meant by a 'false positive'. The installer we ship has no malware in it. Unless its been infected with something on your machine, the installer is clean. What has likely happened is some peice of malware used the same networking l…

I think you misunderstand how the different pieces of software go together. Fractal Mapper is the primary program. That is what is used to create maps. FWE is a free add-on for creating and editing terrain graphics that can be placed on the backg…

FWE is a terrain generator. There is no markup capability in FWE - it just edits terrain. Its a free add-on designed to support Fractal Mapper. If you want to add roads, rivers, and other items on a map, you'd create the terrain in FWE, and then …

There's a trial version. Under 'Downloads' in the site's menu.

Thats a great graphic :-) Also, just fyi, FM can be installed on up to 3 machines that are yours or where you're the primary user. For example, a work machine, a home machine, and a laptop you use while gaming.
-
Yes and Yes. For the second, this is for when an accelleration is chosen, as opposed to a fixed speed.
-
It sounds like you are trying to directly open a JPG image, which FM wont do because it only opens its own map files. Use File -> Place instead to place a JPG image into your map. Follow these steps. - Create a blank map. - User File -> …

There's a couple dice related functions, not sure how they didnt make it into the docs. EvalDice( string) takes a string like "4d6+4". The format has to be "N d N (+/-) N". I believe the modifier can be left out, like "4d6". RollDice( int, …

Hi Luis, The commercial/paid version of ScreenMonkey was removed from sale. The new 1.8 'lite' version has all the features of the paid version, except for the scripting support (and a few other minor features that would have been removed from t…

Just to confirm... are you clicking on the .ipt file, and THAT is trying to open with firefox? Or are you clicking on the .htm file? (which should be opening in firefox or other browser)

Most terrain visualization tools should be able to import the binary files that FWE creates. The files are just raw rows/columns of 16bit or 32bit integers. There's no 'format' - its just a raw data dump. The elevation is in meters. You just nee…

Without an actual description of what specifically you are trying to do and what's occurring, there's not much help I can provide.

Using [#8 Monsters] would pick item 8 on the Monsters table. Is that what you mean? Instead of a number, you'd stick the prompt variable in there. Or, you can make a separate table for each prompt option.

Are you talking about something like this: This is done by placing two concentric circles on the map, and combining them in XOR mode (Action -> Combine Polygons - Exclude( XOR)). Then use the vector flood fill to 'fill' that combined shap…

Use the latest Astro update instead:

I think I see whats going on. You have: TotalToughness.Text = ToughnessRank.Value + 1 ; When all you really need for the field source is: ToughnessRank.Value + 1 ie, no assignment.
-
can you post the sheet so we can look at it? Its hard to tell what might be going wrong.
-
There's no reason to believe that such planets are the most common type of body. They're just more commonly found because they are large and easier to spot. Astro's generator does on occassion make terrestrial bodies that are larger than Earth... …
-
Same problem you had with Astro, I believe. The Keep update is a replacement of the main executable, not an installer. It needs to replace your existing KeepCM.exe.
-
Correct, the latest beta on nox is just the main executable. It needs to be copied over into the existing Astro3 program directory, replacing the existing Astro3.exe.
-
No, I dont believe there's a way you can name subsectors like that using an inspiration pad pro file.

That map looks awesome, Mark :-)

This is something you'd want to email support. (It says this at the top of the forum). There's a number of possible causes for files not saving, ranging from corrupted files to Windows virtual store issues.
-
Also, before you do any of that, make sure your grids are set to completely solid. ie, no partial transparency.
-
This is probably because the printer is printing at very high resolution. Since these sound like square grids, the easiest thing would be to draw in your own. This shouldnt take more than a minute or two using the 'snap to square grids' feature.…
-
You can actually do that now. Add the spectral class to the search by adding 'show spectral' to the query, and then you can sort on that column by clicking on the grid header at the top of the results list.
-
So I understand... what you are trying to do is find out which attribute has the highest value, correct?
-
Glad you like! I can look at compiling a linux cli version. I didnt know how much interest there was in that.

The move to My Documents is to make ipp play nicer with Windows, which by default prevents apps from writing into the Program Files directory. Plus, by putting them into the My Documents, its easier to add the generators to a backup.
