Status Icons.

For others then.

The preinstalled content will contain a status.zip file in its manually specified folder.

Copy that file into your already existing campaigns manually specified folder and you will have the status icons.

 

Yeah, i used the core installer and have the same issue

I'll download the full content then ..

 

and this is not in the release notes either

 

I need some clarification here. Could you maybe give the exact path name for the folder where the status icons are? I searched through the whole D20Pro tree, and I could only find a single folder called 'manually specified,' and that was for my existing campaign. I did find a folder called res/image/status which does contain some icons and might be the 'preinstalled content' that you're talking about, but it only contains icons that we've had since the beginning (dead, disabled, and immobilized).

Under judge/campaigns/(my campaign)/temp I found a new folder called status, which seemed promising, but it was empty.

Interestingly, the manually specified folder in my own campaign now contains a zip called 'status,' which I don't remember being in the older versions, but it's empty and can't even be opened by winzip.

It sounds like a corrupt download, but I downloaded it twice.

???

 

I found it in the OGL 3.5 Campaign (when installed from the FULL install, not the Core install) , same folder as in your personal campaign

Also attached to this reply

(i hope it's ok with D20pro/forum guys.. just remove it, if not)

 

Hey thanks! I didn't catch that 'pre-installed content' meant 'the campaign that comes with the FULL installer.' It makes sense now. I skipped the optional campaign stuff and got totally lost!

Anyways, the icons work great. Probably my favorite new feature in this release.

 

Hail and well met,

Thanks for the diagnosis and workarounds all. The instructions for how to introduce these files to upgraded campaigns will be in the newsletter coming out early next week.

In the meantime I've also hosted these files directly on the website:

* http://d20pro.com/dl/status.zip
* http://d20pro.com/dl/stats.zip

 

These status icons are great! This will make my life so much easier!

 

Hello everyone,

I have been playing around with the status icons a little bit today, adding some for spells (prayer, bless, fly, etc.) and have run into a roadblock.

If you have more than 50 statuses, you can't see them all on the chooser.

In other words, right click the creature, pick status, see a list of icons, it is limited to 50 (on my screen at least, which is 1680x1050 pixels). You might be able to get more on a taller screen, or less on a shorter screen.

Is there a way for you guys to make it so that, if I have a whole slew of potential status icons (there are a minimum of 34 conditions in Pathfinder, plus lots of other effects that are nice to see represented), you can scroll up and down through that list?

Here are the statuses I currently have:
Astral
Beast Form
Bleeding
Bless
Blinded
Blur
Cowering
Dazed
Deafened
Delay
Dominated
Entangled
Ethereal
Fighting Defensively
Flying
Frightened
Gaseous Form
Grappling
Hasted
Helpless
Held (Hold Person)
Invisible
Levitating
Mirror Image
Die Modifiers (+2, +4, +6, -2, -4, -6)
On Fire
Poisoned
Diseased
Petrified
Pinned
Power Attacking
Prayer
Prone
Readying
Resist acid
Resist cold
Resist fire
Resist electricity
Resist poison
Sleeping
Slowed
Squeezing
Stealth/Hidden
Stunned
Surprised
Total Defense

That is right at my screen limit, and there are several others I would like to add (Stoneskin, Prot from evil, etc.).

Is this something that can be done?

 

Sure, I can remove some of the icons, and I have done so, but what I really want to do is ADD more status icons. Screen real estate is hard enough to come by that once I have the roster open, and the game log open, there isn't enough space (on a 24" widescreen, mind you) to properly keep a large-scale combat going with the Effects window as well. Of course, once we get to a point (please-o-please) where we can pull those windows OUT of the primary and stick them on a second monitor, this problem will alleviate.

By keeping the Effects window out of it, and adding the capacity for more status icons, I can tell at a glance whether a creature has something going on with it. Perhaps make the status chooser have subtabs - one for the standard Conditions (of which there are 34), one for spell effects, one for combat effects (total defense, grappling, fighting defensively, just charged, etc.), and so on.

+1 I support this approach as it is easier to find what you are looking for instead of scrolling thru a mountain of statuses.

 

ah, nice, didn't know we could play with it like that !

 

That's what I want!
