SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Another important update to Hexographer was made with a couple of cool new features:
  • You can now select lines, then move/remove individual points, add new points within a line, or add new points to either end.
  • Features (settlements & symbols), simple symbols (like the small circle, triangle, circled rectangle, etc.), lines, and text can all be marked as "GM Only."  These GM Only items can be toggled on and off using a checkbox menu item in the "Show/Hide" menu.  (This is so you can turn these things off and save a player's version of the map and then turn them back on.)
  • Text can now be outlined.
  • And several other minor improvements and bug fixes like the currently active/editable text is highlighted, the styled text buttons use the matching font on the button, etc.
