So, I checked with my version of Wonderdraft (currently version 1.1.6, I skipped the Update to 1.1.8 just in case if this is your problem):
I created this directory
C:\Users\(user)\AppData\Roaming\Wonderdraft\assets\A Fistful of Darkness\sprites\symbols
I unzipped the files and put them there
--> subdirectories "aFoD Cliffs", "aFoD Landscape" etc.
NOTE: I did not edit any metafiles, I just placed the files there and that's it.
I started Wonderdraft, created a new map (theme black/white).
I selected "symbols", selected "aF oD Settlement Town" and placed some icons on the map.
I exported Image=Normal, Format=PNG (unselected Export Trace Image).
Result: everything's ok. Another export with Format=JPG was also fine.
What's different on your side?
This is German/European format --> 1st of February. I need some time to work on the print release (ordering a proof today but not sure if I find something and have to order again).
You don't own aFoD already and want to order the print+pdf, right? I understand that you don't want to pay twice for pdf and print if the pdf is included in the print release.
If yes, please contact me via in@monkeyecho.de and I create a download for the pdf right now. You can send me your proof of purchase later in February.
Hey Andrea! Great to hear from you. I saw Deep Cuts but I want to let it open for every group if they want to use the new rules or not. Easy applicable to aFoD, too, if you want to. I want to leave the game mainly as-is ... while working on a Companion for more world building material and play-modes. Having the book done gives me time again for that and other games.
Hey, great to hear from you. We'll see how long it will take to make this thing. After playing Hard West 2 I plan to re-play Hard West 1 and the soundtrack alone is a good inspiration.
Regarding full book: Well, maybe yes but it's really very unlikely. Working (on and off) and 4-5 different projects right now and with day job and family I don't want you to get your hopes up too high.
Actually, it's really hard for me to say if there is interest in the full book, because I don't get much feedback about aFoD. I search from time to time on the blades discord and twitter but there are (from my point of view) little visible plays. The last surveys had 3 participants, so it's really difficult to say.
glad you like the roll20 sheets!
To be honest, I’m trying to avoid printer friendly character sheets for some time now and you’re the first to ask for them. Sooo, if you found a solution that work for you I will avoid them a bit longer, mainly because I don’t think I can make them interesting (and not boring) enough. I’m aiming for this first time wow effect when new players open the book or the sheets and simple sheets (when I make them) don’t have this effect.
I really hope, this is ok for you. If not, I will overcome my doubts and lazyness und make them.
