That would be nice, if well done. Their survey gives me the impression they know nothing about Discworld and hope to get focus points from fans to sell more books. They also seem to have a few big licenses they are cashing in. Does anyone know their work and if it’s any good?

Found some in the megathread > other treasures > FMHY > browse collection > non-english > french > streaming at the bottom of the category (idk if direct links are allowed in here sorry).

Bit late but I just remembered two interesting cases:

• some Japanese animes not intended for children but marketed to them in France ~30 years ago were sometimes not translated but dialogues were improvised to censor anything inappropriate
• in Switzerland they used to put subtitles in 3 languages resulting in a ridiculous proportion of the screen covered with text (maybe they still do idk)

Oh yeah they did something similar to japanese cartoons that were marketed to children a few decades ago. They completely made up dialogues because the original ones were too violent (but not intended for children), resulting in hilarious nonsense when you look back at it. There wasn’t much translation involved in the end.

Yes everything is voiced over, which I quickly grew tired of as an adult, you lose some in translation and voice acting. Most stuff on DVD is localized by default but you can select voice and subtitles languages. TV programs often have the option as well. Some theaters offer movies in their original language with subs, but it’s not commonplace. I didn’t watch anything on tv, dvd or at the theater for years tho.

I used to see bidets in some houses in France like 15+ years ago but they were already a rare sight, a thing of the past. I have no idea why.

Sorry I meant getting the union of two ranges, concatenating two columns, putting the data of two different columns into one. Don’t worry about it though, I found you can do some stuff with INDEX, but then you can’t sort it, so I arranged my data in another way and color coded it… The whole process was quite annoying tbh but I got what I wanted. On your example with checkboxes they don’t behave as part of the cell, idk how they work but that’s weird compared to gdocs. I can use true/false instead. Also I didn’t want to turn this thread into a Calc stackoverflow one ^^ Thanks for the help all the same.

INS/MV 4th edition, there is an old software for it but it’s no good. I already made a spreadsheet for it anyway, I was wondering if I was missing something outside of rulesets specific tools.

Some functions like QUERY, SORT, CHOOSECOLS, MAP* that makes it easier. I tried to understand how merging several columns into one would work in Calc and gave up. There are workarounds but no legit way to do it outside scripting, but I’d like to keep my sheets script free. Also there are no in cell checkboxes in Calc, but I guess you could just use a boolean. Overall I’m often frustrated by Calc and shamefully go back to G.

I’m always biased against VTTs, maybe I’m wrong. They always seem to want to sell rulesets and adventures on top of subscriptions (eww) or the software. Not sure if you can play a game previously own without buying it again, or sometime they limit the ability to make a custom one without a subscription and so on. I’m usually fine with VOIP and some form of chat or forum anyway.

Yeah that’s why I often end up making a spreadsheet. I’d love to use LibreOffice for them but often find google sheet more flexible. I’m not very happy about that but that’s how it is. I was curious to know if I missed something new that didn’t come up through my searches.

If you’re going for something mostly about the world you play in, the characters, ambiance, … I wouldn’t go to deep with a system. Keep it simple like a d100 basic system or something. Else it will take away from the roleplay and occupy the space in your games. My worst experiences in trpg were with systems with two many steps for a roll, too many rules to keep up with, that kind of stuff. The more time passes the less rules I want, give me a few attributes and skills with a d20 or d100 and let’s go!
