This is an attempt at a RPG LaTeX template. The template compiles with pdflatex.
Just clone the repo. From terminal:
$ git clone https://github.com/Krozark/RPG-LaTeX-Template.git
$ cd RPG-Latex-Template
$ pdflatex book.tex
$ pdflatex cards.tex
If you don't have LaTeX installed, the following should help you out:
sudo apt-get install texlive-full
sudo pacman -S texlive-bin texlive-core texlive-latexextra
It's a bit unclear exactly what subset of features this module needs. As a general rule, we'd recommend installing one of larger ones.
- bg-letter: Loads a letter-sized background-image
- bg-a4: Loads an A4-sized background-image
- bg-print: Loads a printer-friendly background-image (only decal at the bottom)
- bg-full: Loads the full background-image
Per default "bg-letter" and "bg-full" are loaded.
- Consider implementing more complex tables for monsters, etc.
- Clean up the table-preset
- Create more elegant solution for spacing before and after boxes (using \vspace is rather rigid when two boxes follow in a row)
- Add subtitle option for boxes
- Sort out box-decals when boxes break column or page
- Look into adding the ability to add large images to the document. There are some documents made with InDesign out there that accomplish this quite well.
