    Coincidentally Ravicus, I got what you meant, and actually agreed - but couldn't resist the irony. Sorry 'bout that. It's all in good fun I hope. The app does look neat though (personally I almost never install that kind of stuff on my phone either, but also do get the whole min/max thing, and have even been guilty of it in some games).

    Wait, I just reread the OP and when did RG say we were getting multiple characters for MPO mode? And how many?

    Ya, I dont hold nothing against anyone that uses this, its the way it is now days. I know it wont change lol. I just wanted to state my opinion on the subject. I do like the app and hope it works out for everyone that wants it. I just happen to disagree. I apologize to the OP for taking over part of this thread and will quit my rant now :p /end rant

    Thanks for the applause :)

    I do understand where you are coming from though and it wont be something for everyone.. but this thing is big! so many recipes and so much to do, I think it will have place for a lot of people. Come on...you want to try it..you know you do....jk

    Ability to make notes on those maps in the future would be great too! I personally will be exploring all the areas myself before referring to maps, but sometimes it's just nice to have one to refer to in the cities and towns. It would be cool (imo) if all in-game maps came with fog of war on them but that ship has probably sailed.

    I would love to test the app.

    One question though.

    Do you have permission to use the images? Even if Port doesn't care, if you can't prove you have permission Apple will reject your app in a heartbeat.

    I think I posted this to those who asked for a key, but just in case:
    Current State: Beta 1
    - You may need to use WIFI to install from Test Flight, it might start without, but not finish (this is apple)
    - This is primarily a "does it work on devices and getting through apple's process test."
    - Not all data is present yet. (all skills listed, but only first few in each section will show for example.. blades, bludgeon,air,chaos)
    - Landscape View was supposed to have been disabled on iPad, but it snuck in and may look “wonky” for now.

    (will be adding home button in next version, lol)

    Okay, looking for a little input and maybe some help! I was adding in game screen shots for the creatures when I though, this would be great for the crafting items as well! What do you think? Here is an example:

    [​IMG]

    I would like to feature some of the crafting items that you guys have placed in and about the world.. So I am looking for screenshots of the items you have made and placed in game... anyone up for it?

    Beta Build 2 Now available :) If you have already installed the app you should get an automatic notice, let me know if anyone has any issues - Im curious to see how smoothly the update goes.

    I was planning on helping with the Android port. Right now trying to help the other SOTA App Team out with their version, and waiting on Brenton to pass over assets to get started. :)

    Haha, yes. I am trying to get it a bit more feature complete so its a simpler port before going to the darkside that is Android :)

    Umbrae has generously offered to work with me on it, so I don't have to get my hands too dirty with that android funk...jk!
