Browse released scenes, pick those matching your campaign, and build playlists to display locations from multiple views. Switch to map mode with a customizable grid for battles, or explore 3D surroundings using pre-set cameras.
Built in Unreal Engine 4, every scene offers real-time tweaks to weather and time-adjust rain, snow, wind, fog, clouds, or daylight. Watch animated effects like swaying bushes in campfire light or sunlight on a river ford. This indie RPG simulation tool equips GMs to show players precise movement ranges, cover spots, and enemy positions on top-view battlemaps.
RPGScenery is a tool for pen and paper RPG game masters to help them visualize their stories and make the combat scenes more manageable.
In RPGScenery you are able to browse the released scenes, select the ones that fit the most of your campaigns and create playlists from them. You can support your stories by showing the players the locations where their adventures take place from various views or switch into map mode easily to simulate battles with the help of the customizable grid system.
Each scene is built in Unreal Engine 4 with stunning visuals and all of them are customizable which means that you can change the time and the weather by adjusting parameters like the amount of rain, snow, wind, fog, clouds, and time of the day in real-time.
RPGScenery not only provides participants with top-view battlemaps but is also a great tool for showing the scenes in 3D. With the pre-set cameras of each scene, GMs can view and show their players the surrounding from several angles. All the parameters set in the application are animated, including the weather, sunlight, and moonlight effects. Now the players can actually see the dark bushes swaying in wind, in the light of their campfire, or the scattered shine of the sun dancing on the surface of the flowing river they are planning to cross at the ford.
And when push comes to shove, the battle maps of the same scene tell them exactly how far they can move in a round, which enemy they can’t shoot at behind the rock, and tell the GM what their moves are going to be simply by pointing.
