admiralvorkraft Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 I can't help but notice that Vassal hasn't been updated in a major way since pre-Wave 2. I would be willing to make the updates (new models, resizing the Guilty, etc.) but I have no idea how, or who I should approach for access. Any input? A nudge in the right direction? Or are we okay just relabeling the existing models to represent wave 3/4 minis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solkan Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 On the question of access, you don't need to ask anyone for that. The Vassal program is also the thing that you use to edit Vassal modules. And in theory anyone can provide a vassal module to the vassal modules wiki. In other words, you've downloaded the vassal module, you can open it up and give editing it a try. I poked around in the module enough to figure out how to make new models, and then hit the point of "I'm adding a few dozen models all set to <Faction> Generic. Is that really accomplishing anything?" Biggest starting nudge I can offer is to attach an image showing where the model definitions are, and to give these instructions: 0. What you'll be doing is adding new entries under the Everything [Game Piece Palette] part of the tree. Selecting an existing model, and then copying it might be the easiest thing to do. 1. You change the image for the piece by selecting "Basic Piece" and then hitting the "Properties" button. 2. You change the text shown above the model by selecting "Text Label" and then hitting the "Properties" button. Quick unedited screen captures attached as visual nudges. Edit: Deleted attachments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nishi Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Would be using images from wyrds statcards on these models legal/shareable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solkan Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Would be using images from wyrds statcards on these models legal/shareable? You would need to ask Wyrd for permission in order to share the module. For Wyrd's permission form, see: http://themostexcellentandawesomeforumever-wyrd.com/topic/111399-the-use-of-wyrd-ip/ Failure to get permission to use the images would disappoint a lot of people when the update gets pulled.

Nathan Caroland Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Vassal is currently being updated and overhauled by Alex who will be sorting that over this month. when it's ready we'll announce and get it put up and y'all can tear through it and find whatever needs helping with on it to get fixed. Thanks. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admiralvorkraft Posted September 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Great :-) I won't worry about it then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazlord_Prime Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Further to this, Alex has put v2.2 up on the Vassal website's Malifaux page. Gaining Grounds S&S added, Faction-specific Scheme markers, and all models up to and including Ripples of Fate now included, with new artwork. BIG thanks!!

Kogan Style Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Noticed that the UK's most abused model is not included in the mod - The Freikorps Trapper. Also as another thread points out - there are no Oxfordian Mages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fauxreigner Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Also I believe the Sabertooth Cerberus is missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
