hey all,
So I have started putting together adventures and sourcebooks for my campaigns and, being sort of OCD about certain things in life, I felt compelled to try and give them a look and feel cohesive with FFG's stuff. Building on the work of other people on these forums (such as adding page backgrounds from previous templates by people such as Depicacyx as well as others that I'm currently unable to find the original threads and give credit to (sorry!)), I have thrown together a PowerPoint template that should make generating your own content a little easier for anyone (like me) who has greater experience with PowerPoint than they do with (say) as Desktop Publishing Software package. I also find PPT just so much easier to use for adding pictures and reformatting text than Word.
I plan on 'publishing' the adventures to the community when they are finished and have been play tested by my group but while I'm still tinkering I thought I would share the template for anyone putting together their own stuff. I plan on creating an AoR and FaD templates in the next few days, and will upload those too when complete.
Notes/features:
- click the center box on the title page to add your own image
- opening crawl page
- table of contents page
- pages with pre-formatted text and heading boxes
- pages with just text boxes
- blank 'starfield' pages for adding planets
- credits page
- the initial page as well as the master have the dice icons printed for copy/pasting
EotE PowerPoint Template v0.91 (The template got super-bloated, have uploaded a small copy)
Fonts (Aurebesh, SF Distant Galaxy, Teuton, SWRPGIcons, these will need to be added or you'll have funky text and no symbols)
Feedback, comments and questions very welcome!
