T5 Web Apps

[thalassogen]

Just a little side note: Word Generator Pro for Android - supporting custom languages - is now available as a paid variant of the basic version.

You've added a LBB generator to the T5 sector maker and I have only just noticed!!

JOY!

 

[thalassogen]

The LBB output should grow and evolve, so if you have any suggestions/wishes/etc. post them, please!

Also I am planning to port one feature of the T5 WebApps to the Win8 / Win Phone / Android platforms. But which one? Guess what, you all shall vote on this! So:

What feature of the T5 WebApps shall be available as an offline/mobile app?

Post here or to the corresponding G+ community.

I want to say the system maker, but something like the GunMaker as a mobile app is probably more useful in "gaming at the table" terms.

And an Android dice roller..... And the whole lot taken offline to Android, with a character generator, and ship maker, and and and....

 

[thalassogen]

OK, noted!


Another update:

I just added a new editor to the Word Generator homepage. Go to http://heldenhaufen.de/Wg/Generator/CreateLanguage and select the tab "Table". There you should see a Traveller-style language table. Fill in the table (no need to fill in all consonant and vowel fields) and hit the button at the bottom. The generated file should be importable into the Win8 Word Generator and the Android Word Generator Pro.

This new editor is still beta, so please report any errors/problems/etc. you encounter here in this thread.

I jest of course, but the gun maker is handy for players, as would be a solid dice roller.

And here it is: Gun Maker for Windows 8.1

And now Gun Maker for Windows Phone 8.1 is available, too!

I have been playing around with system maker, is there a way to feed it main world data? or star type data? both?

Currently not, but I could easily add that. What exactly do you want to pre-determine? Something like a typical subsector entry and then get system details for that?

Gun Maker for Android is about to surface and Gun Maker for iOS will follow shortly.
Thereafter the Dice Roller gets its treatment - any wishes concerning features/design/layout?

Gun Maker is now available in the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.jochenLinnemann.gunMaker

Campaign Calendar

Just a little new web app not too much Traveller-related and still in beta, but maybe of interest: Campaign Calendar

You are right. I just corrected it. You may need to clear your browser cache and reload the page, though.

Gun Maker for iPhone / iPad is about to appear in the App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/app/gun-maker/id908800271

 

[thalassogen]

Just a little side note: I am surprised by the download stats of the different Gun Maker platforms; I thought Android would be far more popular than Windows and guessed that iOS would be somewhere inbetween, but the trend is:

1. iOS
2. Windows
3. Android
4. Windows Phone

 

[inexorabletash]

I posted my site stats a bit ago: definitely higher iOS usage among the Traveller crowd than I expected.

Wait for meeeeee! I have an Android phone and will download T5 Gun Maker. That will help your stats. Also downloaded Word Generator Pro.

Are there other apps for T5? Are there related and very applicable Traveller apps of other editions?
