Site Credits and Resources for Virtual Tabletops
It’s important to me to acknowledge the individuals, communities, and companies who have contributed ideas or inspiration or resources to EpicTable. Here, you’ll find credits for those whose work is featured on this site, as well as links to the communities and resource sites that I frequent.
Communities
Online communities focused on virtual tabletops
- Dundjinni Forums
- Great mapping software for RPGs, with a fantastic user community.
- Four Ugly Monsters
- An active and friendly community of roleplaying gamers. There’s a wide variety of games discussed on this forum, and it’s a regular gathering place for virtual tabletop gamers. Campaigns are forming all the time, and in many different timezones, making this a great place to try a new game.
- Brennen Reece’s RPG/art/music site
- Brennen’s site is covers his own RPG creations and drawings. Very much focused on narrative games or story games. Brennen has also contributed to EpicTable’s development, as you’ll see in the Acknowledgments section.
Credits and Acknowledgments
Realityforge would like to thank the following companies and individuals who have created content used on the EpicTable site.
- Brennen Reece
- Brennen has been a huge help with EpicTable. Not only has he supplied the die images, he’s created character portraits and other art, consulted on graphic design and typography, and just generally bounced a lot of ideas and encouragement around. He’s also responsible for my introduction to the world of indie games and narrative games. EpicTable would have been much narrower in outlook without his influence.
- Vehige Studios
- Adam Vehige created the EpicTable dragon. His work is really top-notch, and prints are available.
- Dundjinni
- The maps in various screenshots on the EpicTable site were created with Dundjinni using art from the user creations forum.
- Genetica Texture Packs
- High quality, seamless textures. Editable if you happen to have Genetica, but still useful if you do not. Several of these are used in the texture gallery for EpicTable maps.
- Fiery Dragon Productions
- The portrait-style digital tokens you see in screenshots on this site are courtesy of Fiery Dragon Productions.
- David Hartman
- David Hartman is an illustrator and director I’ve blogged about who has allowed some of his work to be used as avatars in the EpicTable forum.
- "Greytale"
- Greytale, a contributor on the Dundjinni forum, created some of the artwork used in the maps in EpicTable screenshots. Greytale’s Nook is a site showcasing his work and that of some other Dundjinni forum denizens.
- "Cisticola"
- Cisticola is a member of the Dundjinni forum whose work appears on the EpicTable site. You can see more of his work at The Mad Mapper.
- "Dragonwolf"
- Another prolific member of the Dundjinni forum. Dragonwolf’s floor set is well known to the members of the user creations forum there.
- "DevinNight"
- One of the four creatures behind fouruglymonsters.com, DevinNight’s top-down virtual tabletop tokens are used in some of the EpicTable screenshots. His work can be found in the virtual tabletop tokens area of the FUM site.
