  • Tired, so tired

    Bleh. I’m tired, and I want to go to bed. It’s only barely 8 pm, though.

    I’ve been planning to start a conlang and try to fill it in using WordBuilder, and then blog about my progress here. Not entirely sure where that’ll take me.

  • WordBuilder 1.0 released

    WordBuilder is the latest thing to make me go Whee! – It’s an application for building vocabularies, word lists, and other small tricks (I made a list of a town’s inhabitants with occupations and first and last names, for example)

    Fixes since 0.9:

    • Drop command now works, dropping from the end of the word.
    • Translate command now supports begin and end markers:
      Code:
      Translate {
        # a a => a
        a a # => a
      }

      Only removes double a’s at the beginning and end of the word.

    • The generate dialog now supports any number of starting rules.
    • The new Column directive allows you to show marks and branches as columns in the list view.
      Code:
      Column Title1 Branch1
      Column Title2 !Mark1
      Column Title3 Branch1.!Mark2
    • The new Leave command takes tokens off the word until the requested number of tokens are left.
      Code:
      Leave 2
    • WordBuilder now has an icon. Anyone want to make a better one?
    • The installer now asks where to install. Uninstall 0.9 before installing the new one.
    • New example project at http://whee.dk/wordbuilder/prach_eboch.wordo
    • Detail view now shows details for all selected words as preview of what you’ll copy with Copy details to clipboard.

    Download at http://whee.dk/wordbuilder/WordBuilder.msi – and please, please give me some feedback?

  • AutoRealm – Mapping software

    AutoRealm is a nifty piece of software I stumbled upon in my search for a tool to make maps of Dunderhill.

    It’s free (GNU), open source (written in Delphi, though), and pretty cool.

    Below is my first map of Dunderhill made in AutoRealm.

  • D&D 4th edition

    Well, it’s been out a couple of weeks or so, and I recently ordered this:

    D&D 4th edition core books

    Expected arrival is August 4, just before my last week of vacation kicks in. I want to RP again… sigh.
