I have not used MapTool. I just tried in the last week, and its Java requirement is not working with the latest version of Java. That’s a security hole, so I did not go further to make it work.
MOTE has a Kickstarter and a Home Page.
I think such tools would be very useful for online play, but I need more time to figure out how it works.
I have read that some just use Google+, and others use similar tools and Google+ for online live play.
Finding a game I can at least try it out, like a one-shot adventure would be good.
Hi,
Thanks for the post on your blog. We have growing community in G+ (http://bit.ly/MMrdDP), so please feel free to join. It’s quiet now, but it’ll start picking up for sure once the Kickstarter is through.
You can also find a lot of help in the RPTools’ forums (forums.rptools.net)
Once we put in IRC, finding people to play with will be a cinch 🙂
Thanks again!
