Website error yesterday

Just a quick note to say I'm aware of the website downtime yesterday.

The site is working fine now.

I'm pretty sure the error was with the hosting service, since nothing has changed on the site for at least 3 weeks. I've spoken to the host who were less than useful. So it goes.

Starbuilder 2e

Hello,

I've pretty much completed Starbuilder 2e, with the exception of Custom Packs and GM Mode stuff, which will have to wait for a while.

You can give it a go here:[redacted, please use main app now]

Warning: If you save characters to gdrive, they are not currently filtered out by the Android and IOS versions of the app, and won't work on either of those v...

Starbuilder 2e Delay

Hello,

Just a quick note to say that I've been delayed in the development of Starbuilder 2e. I had to return to work on the IOS app for the last week fixing the most pernicious bug in the dice rollers. I'd hoped to have a Starbuilder 2e beta to show by now, but alas this video will have to suffice.

I'm on holiday next week, so my new expected date for an early working Starbuilder ...

IOS Pathbuilder 2e is live

Hello,

Just a quick note to say that Pathbuilder 2e IOS went live on the Apple App Store yesterday. You might have to scroll down the store a bit as it doesn't get visibility due to lack of reviews etc. Link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pathbuilder-2e/id6740821064

IMPORTANT EDIT: It a...

Update

Hello,

I've been delaying doing an update in the hopes that I'd actually have published the IOS app, but it has been delayed by several rejections from the Apple Store (relatively minor and easily fixable stuff like the app icon and in app purchase icon being the same). I'm sure we'll get there eventually, but it takes 24-48 hours for each review and they only reject on one issue at a tim...

General Development Update

Hello,

I've just got up to date with books for Pathbuilder 2e, adding Treasure Vault Remastered and the Adventure Paths and Player's Guides up to AP 215.

The issues I've had with my arm (basically a trapped nerve RSI type thing) have put me about 3 months behind where I wanted to be this year, and it still gives me grief if I put in long days now. So... I've had to revise what I c...

Update on the lack of updates

Just a quick note to say that I've got issues with my arm at the moment (trapped nerve, probably caused by repetitive strain) which means that even sitting at a desk is quite painful, typing doubly so. I've had it for three weeks now and it's really slowing me down.

Anyway, I'm seeing a physio and hopefully it will subside soon.

Pathbuilder 2e IOS Testflight

Hello,

As ever thank you for your support.

An "early access" version of Pathbuilder 2e IOS is now available on Testflight (a beta testing app you can install on your IOS devices). The app isn't finished but I thought I'd let you have a play around with it.

You can sign up here: https://testflight.ap...

IOS Pathbuilder 2e Update

Quick update:

I finished phase 1 of development, which is to create a working app without any of the paid features.

I've signed up to the Apple Developer program and I'm in the process of getting a build of the app uploaded for testing. Once that is done I'll be clearer about how to get people to sign up for a bit of testing. I'll make a new post about that when I'm ready.

In...

Thanks

Just a quick post to say welcome to my new patrons and thanks to everyone for your continued support.

Social media isn't really my thing, so there can be long periods of silence here, but just know that every day I'm grateful for the support I receive from this community.

By the way I am squeezing in development of the IOS version between adding new content and fixing broken content...

War of Immortals

Edit: Got what I need thanks, no need for further help.

Fixes and Thanks

I just wanted to write a short note to say thanks to everyone who is supporting me, and to welcome the new patrons who joined over the last few days. There is not a day that goes by where I don't consider myself lucky to be supported by the pathfinder community like this.

I'm publishing a load of PC2 fixes in the next hour, then I'm taking some time off! Look for v231 Android and v85 w...

Player Core 2

.. and it's live. Android v229 or web v84.

I had to write a new system to allow more granular application of remastered content, but I think it is working quite well.

Edit: Android users want v229. This fixes the swashbuckler loading and champion feat issues from 227.

IOS Development Update

Hello,

Quick update to show the progress on the IOS version. I've nearly created the basic "free" version of the app. I want to get that up to the apple store for tests before adding in the paid extras. Basically make sure it is working in its core before proceeding.

With Player Core 2 just around the corner though it is unlikely to happen until September time though.

As ever,...

Update

Hello.

As ever, thanks for your continued support. I'm waiting for google to process version 221 of Pathbuilder 2e before it goes live later today and thought I'd do one of my irregular updates.

I've added a light mode for the web app. The new update also includes a whole load of improvements for custom content creators, including new custom generic companions so the Battlezoo crew...

Remaster is live

Just sent the remaster stuff to live on web v76 and android v208.  If you've been using the beta web address you should switch back to the normal one now.

There will no doubt be more stuff to fix, and I still need to do the remaster character sheet, but it can wait until next week.

I also want to say a heartfelt thank you for all the support you've given me over the last few we...

Remaster Beta release to play around with

Hello,

The beta for Pathbuilder 2e remastered is available on the play store (v207) if you sign up for beta, and also on the web at https://pathbuilder2e.com/beta/app.html?v=75a

Please be aware that it is beta - so bad things can happen.  I spent an extra day testing and fixing stuff which is ...

Update on Remaster

Quick end of day update on how the remaster work is going on Pathbuilder 2e.

I'm much happier with it now.  Basically everything is optional. If you load up an old character it will be exactly as it was prior to the remaster rules coming out - you can then choose to apply the remaster to your character from the menu and the app will do its best to update everything.  New charact...

Remastered Update: Going to take a bit longer...

Update on my post earlier today about releasing the remastered app tomorrow on the 16th.

I'm going to take a good look at if it is possible to combine the remastered and unremastered into a single app.  I've heard a bit of grumbling about the two app situation, and it was never my preferred option. Now that I've completed it, I think I can see a way through to doing it - but it is go...

Starfinder Enhanced Delayed

Hi all,

I intended to get Starfinder Enhanced done over the last couple of weeks, but instead got hit by a nasty bout of covid which I'm only just recovering from now.  Next week is half term for the kids so not much gets done then, and my energy levels are still pretty low, and after that I'm into Pathfinder Remastered.  So its unfortunately unlikely it will get done...

Looking for a big android Pathbuilder 2e local character database

EDIT: Sorted now thanks, someone sent me a database with 270 characters in it.

Does anyone have a really big database of local characters on android pathbuilder 2e?  Like hundreds?  If so please can you export it (via the database management on the front page) and then share it with me please.

I'm testing the database link between android Pathbuilder 2e and the new unremas...

Update (Testers Needed)

Hello.

As ever, thank you for your continued support.  A rather length update today as I've been tinkering away with stuff behind the scenes.

1) Content Delivery Network

I've farmed pathbuilder2e web's data provision out to a Content Delivery Network. It's faster and should help with the server strain that occurs when a new update comes out.  If you'...

Rage of Elements

Got it now, thanks all.

Pathfinder Remaster

Hello all,

Just thought I would do a quick post on my thoughts for the Pathfinder Remaster.

My plan at the moment (although this might change as new information comes out) is to:

1) Treat the remaster like I do all errata and update the app accordingly. I'll be letting users know via popups in the app that the remaster is coming as we approach the date.

2) Create a versi...

Pathbuilder 2e GM Connect - 2nd Beta

Hello,

I've just uploaded a new beta version of the app and encounters with the hopefully more efficient GM Connect code. The data structure changed quite a bit so, as I warned, none of the previous connections will work (and have now been deleted).

If you have time, please do me a solid and test it out at:

Pathbuilder 2e GM Connect

Just a quick note to say that I'm having to rework GM Connect, as the data transfer rates are way too high and it scaling it up for a full roll out would cost too much.  

I'm working on an adjusted version now with better listeners and caching. Should be done in a couple of days, after which all the old connections using the old structure will be deleted.  So don't get too settl...

GM Connect Beta Test

Hello,

As ever, thank you for your support.

I've got the GM Connect tools for Pathbuilder 2e ready for some beta testing now. You can access it either via:

1) Web: https://pathbuilder2e.com/beta/app.html (note the beta in the web address), In the menu Launch in GM Mode, connect and share your GM ID...

Update

Just a quick update as I'm about to switch everything off for my Christmas break.

I've been working on Connect to GM functionality for Pathbuilder 2e over the last month which I will roll out in the new year.  Pathbuilder 2e Web will get a new GM mode where GMs can monitor their player's characters and update them in realtime. GMs can also monitor players in the Pathbuilder Encounter...

Pathbuilder 2e Web - new login, neeed testers

Hi,

I've updated the google login and gdrive code in Pathbuilder 2e Web to the latest google libraries (they're shutting down the old way of logging in).  I could really use some people to test it! It's only in the beta folder on the website, and I really want to make sure that it works before rolling it out fully. v56.
