Introduction

Hey, everyone! Mortaneus here.

I've been running a 4e game for a while now, and I use my laptop as my GM screen.

As such, I've spent a decent amount of time examining the various digital assistant offerings out there. I've mainly been using Virtual Combat Cards, Masterplan, and OneNote to do what I want to do.

All are excellent offerings. However, none of them have exactly the feature set I want while running a fight. Since I prefer to fix rather than complain, I went about writing my own (being a programmer myself).

This is the result. Enjoy!

Main Features

  • Paste Monsters directly from the WotC Monster Builder using the Copy-to-Rich Text option
  • Load PCs directly from Character Builder Files
  • Shows full stat-blocks for every combatant on the main screen
  • Automatically saves a library of every entered monster/PC to speed preparation
  • Load and Save encounter rosters to save time at the table
  • Tracks most combat data for the GM:
    • Initiative order
    • Hit points (including temporary)
    • Power-expenditure (including recharge rolls)
    • Daily Item Usage
    • Lingering Effects
    • Saving Throws
    • Healing Surges

(accurate as of v1.7.4)

Requirements

  • Windows XP and later only
  • Requires .NET Framework 3.5 or later (if you have the Character Builder or Monster Builder installed, you have this)


Version History

Version 1.7

Version 1.7.3

Several Updates

  • Added healing surge tracking. Note: Using the "Surge" button does not actually expend a surge.
  • Adjusted the size minimums of the windows to fit mini PCs.
  • Completely replaced the RTF Statblock windows with HTML displays, to allow an "authentic" statblock view.
  • Added an embedded power-view panel. The power-view panel is the one in the bottom right-hand corner. It'll only work on player powers and items, and only after you log into your D&D Insider account (in the embedded window)

Version 1.7.2

Minor bugfix update, until Character Builder adds export capabilities.

  • Fixed the URLs not importing in powers that disappeared from 1.7.0 to 1.7.1
  • Fixed issue of combatants dying during their own turn not triggering next turn properly.

Version 1.7.1

This is primarily a bugfix release. Some items weren't wanting to import properly. There are a lot of features I want to add that I've not been able to yet. There are a couple of minor changes, though.

  • Right-click -> Remove Fighter from Combat
  • Right-click -> Marks -- This currently contains Mark until end of source's next turn and mark until end of encounter. I'm going to try to add some functionality for Striker marks in here, but each one behaves a little differently, like Assassin Shrouds.

Version 1.6

Version 1.6.1c

  • Fixed a Monster Builder import glitch with monsters who had non-aura Traits.
  • Added "Mark Until Source's Next Turn" to the context menu for the combatant list.
  • Reformatted the combatant list so the numbers are appended a bit more uniformly. Example "Hill Giant-1" is now "Hill Giant - 01" . This will keep large numbers of monsters from being sorted improperly, if there are 10 or more of them.
  • Recharge powers now show up with the dice symbols, rather than "Recharge 4" or "Recharge 6".

Version 1.6.1b

  • Fixes (hopefully) the recent changes to Adventure Tools. Please see the discussion page in the section marked 1.6.1b for details on how to report errors.

Version 1.6.1a

  • Fixes a recent change to Character Builder that modified the format of the .dnd4e XML file. Fixed and compiled by DarkSir, until Mortaneus's return.

Version 1.6.1

  • When saving, all PC status information will be saved, regardless of out-of-combat status

Version 1.6.0

  • Added a tabbed section to the Statblock-edit window to give more room for data.
  • You can now manually preset effects that a PC or Monster can generate, and they will appear on the 'Add Effect' window. These must be manually set up on the Statblock-edit window on one of the new tabs, and will be saved normally. This will allow commonly created effects to be pre-entered for the major combatants of an encounter, saving the GM some typing time when adding effects during play.
  • 'Notes' tab has been added to the Statblock-edit window for entry of Tactics, Monster Knowledge, etc. It will appear in the statblock summary, and is saved as normal.
  • When 'Save Encounter' is used on a currently active encounter, all combat data is now saved.
  • Added Right-Click menu to the main initiative list for quick access of Move-to-Top, Ready, and Delay options.
  • Improved parsing of Aura powers from rich text (mainly to handle weird formats, such as the Kyuss monsters)
  • Fixed a bug with adding effects to PCs before combat begins

Version 1.4

Version 1.4.2

  • Reworked Initiative and Damage tabs to be more distinctive
    • Changed initiative and damage/heal entry boxes to be numeric up-down boxes
    • Added 5 and +5 to damage/heal tab for fast values
    • Added Surge and Maximum to damage/heal tab for fast values
    • Removed Slay button to make room (just hit Max then Damage and it'll do the same thing)
  • Added Feat line to Stat Block
  • Healing Surge value will display in statblock for PCs
  • Altered Ready functionality to conform to the rules (it doesn't remove from the initiative structure anymore, just marks as *Rdy*. This will clear when next turn starts, or is moved to start of list)
  • Several overhauls and cleanups to 'Start of Turn' functionality
  • Changing a statblock in the library will now update current combatants
  • Changed 'Undo Turn' button to 'Back Up', and reworked functionality (still doesn't undo damage/healing dealt)
  • Moved 'Remove Fighter' button to Initiative tab
  • Removed 'Roll Initiatives' and 'Reset Encounter' buttons from main screen. They are menu options under the 'Combat' menu, and don't need to be front-and-center, since they're only accessed twice a fight.

  • Added dropdown on Effect screen with pre-loaded effect names
  • Effects with the name 'Marked' are now unique per target. Adding a new one will overlay a prexisting one.
  • Inactive combatants will no longer prompt to recharge powers
  • Reworked the Rich Text import logic for more accurate checking of what it is reading. For example, the Skeleton power Speed of the Dead will no longer get eaten by the Speed line.

  • Bloody condition will now show on equal to or less than Bloody value, rather than less than.

  • Both Global and Individual notes are now saved with the encounter

Version 1.3.1

  • Now handles 'small font' and 'large font' format of new version of Monster Builder.
