Some people have been having problems printing their cards. I've been trying to track down the solution. Part of it may be memory allocation of color space...
The Holy Grail is within sight. I have found a way to export card data from within the free Acrobat Reader, so that you can save your army decks and import...
In a program update, the workaround has proven fairly robust in testing. I've been afraid it would slip a character here and there and mess everything up, but...
A prototype of the army builder with the ability to export data is now available from the link at the iarmies Yahoo group web page, which is I think: ...
I've been tweaking the graphics to make them look as good as possible on screen and in print, plus there have been some tweaks to unit abilities. A combined...
For those still lurking and those who are new to the list, as my programming skills advance, I'm able to make minor performance tweaks to speed the card ...
Okay, I've gotten the pull-down menus perfected, and corrected the bug that did not copy your army information to the Clipboard correctly on some systems....
Okay all, the current iteration of the army builder with pull-down menus is at the main download link. This also includes a low-res version of the rules, which...
There is still a glitch in the data export. The correct information is getting put into the field on page 1, but that is not what is getting exported to the...
Okay, I've got the timing issues resolved, and that will be for a later update. Also, if you have a set of images you want to export (using the latest download...
iA news: On the good side, I have managed to get all the image import functions to work under Acrobat 5, 6 and 7 now. Yippie! On other good news, I've managed...
This list has been dormant for a while, but just wanted everyone to know that Infinite Armies will be released tomorrow (August 7). Those who provided useful...
Hey all: In the interest of getting more feedback ratings on RPGnow, I'm going to do the following: If you go to RPGnow and leave feedback for a BTRC product...
Hey all: I'm putting out an open call for ideas on how to customize the basic rule set for particular genres. Not in the sense of adding new abilities or ...
... rule ... combats. I've been thinking about modelling superhero combat with the system, using parrallels like Rock is bashing, Scissors are energy and Paper...
Howdy, I've been fooling around with a generic, semi-historical type of set that is a "Knights vs. Barbarian" sort of thing. For the Knights: I thought a good...
Aaron, Benj: All sounds good. I like your interpretation of some of the units (like the Berserker-terrorist, or superhero interpetations on how Move works)....
Greg, you just have to unlock these PDFs. I unlocked them myself with Acrobat, but particularly for the Army Builder you have to unlock it. With the current...
Pages 9-10 of the rulebook have a bad example. You picture an attacker and defender and the icons used in the example don't match the pictures. This...
Lee, On the army builder you're out of luck. The Acrobat -Reader- under -no- cirucmstances allows the export of form data or saving of a form-based pdf with...
... Well dammit, you're right. That had to be a case where I changed the card design for some other reason during the design process, and the layout program...
Greg, much of your post is, to the best of my knowledge, in error, at least with regards to the PDF 995 driver. I took your locked PDF and tried to print to my...
OK, Greg, next headache from me. I've got a folder called "files" right in the same directory as the Army Builder (right where it unzipped). I put in 55...
If you don't take my suggestion on programming in a way to set the colors for the text on the card, and you want another way to do a drop shadow, a good...
... I've been using Reader for my tests, and it works for me on Reader 5.1, 6.0 and 7.0 using the default print screen on both a Mac and an old Pentium box I...
... I tried that too. Acrobat doesn't like text fields on top of text fields a lot of the time. And it didn't look all that great, either. ... Considered that...
... fields a ... My question: how did it print? How it looks in Reader is secondary to how it prints. This is a game played with printed cards, not an online...
Yeah, but you have to be able to see it on the screen before you print it. I'd have to go back and play with overlapping boxes again just to see the results,...
OK, so I've discovered something interesting in my tinkerings with IA. When you figure out the secret of replacing the RPS icons with custom icons, as long as...
Yes, if you break into the programming, you can do all kinds of clever tweaks with the icons and images. That function is there mainly for people who want to...
