Module Design

I have made a game called 4XWarlord: Thaumaturge and I would like to make a Vassal module however I do not know how. I was wondering if anyone wanted to help. Its a great game that would surprise you if you played it with your families as it is aot of fun.

Here is a link to the rulebook. It needs to be cleaned up but I was teaching when I rote it.

Here is a link to a series of videos by Joel Toppen. VASSAL Module Design 101 Lesson 2

There are old but still valid. There are what I used to get started in Vassal.

Checkout out the various posts under Module Creation in the Documentation Index. Joel Toppen’s (aka @Alexander331bc ) video tutorial series is listed in Video tutorials on module development together with outer video tutorials.

BTW, please remember to mark an appropriate post as the solution to your issue - that will help other users find solutions to their trouble. Only the original poster can do that.

Yours,
Christian

I have been creating my first module from existing art.

I also watched Joel Toppens video.

I found that MS Copilot was very helpful.

Converting the maps with image magic

Snipping the counters using image magic

Interpreting the counters with an ocr in python

Creating a traits excel sheet for all the counters.

I don’t think I would have had the patience figuring out how to use all those tools myself.

the vassal manuals show you how to put all the pieces together but assume that all the art is done.
