Campaign Help

Hi everyone. This is my first day here, and I'm already working on campaign. However, I'm having some difficulties. The first bieng, I can't seem to change the name of the different pages. I was also wondering if there is a way that the text I have on the first three 'history' can show up in stages, instead of just being there. I know it involves fog of war, but the fog of war acts finda funny on my pages. Also, I am looking for someone who might have a little more knowledge and skill with making maps from scratch to help me put together a few(Maybe 30) battle maps, or at least, show me the basics of how to do it myself.

In order to change the name of a map, click on the name, type in a new name, and then (most important) hit enter. Without hitting enter it will revert to the old name.  Could you elaborate on the 'first three 'history'' statement? I am not sure what you mean.  Unfortunately, I cannot help with the making of maps from scratch since I typically do not do so.  If you need any further help let me know. :) - Gauss

Well, to elaborate, I'm working on a Romance of the Three Kindgoms pathfinder version. First three history pages is basicly the map of china, with the history of the Yellow turbans, The second page is the history of Dong Zhuo, and the third details the three lords, Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei's rise to power. After that I plan on having members join in at the battle of Chi Bi, and pick their side.

Is the text as part of an image or is it manually inserted via the art's text tool?  - Gauss

If it's an image, use handouts. If it's text, set it to a macro.

Its a text. Thanks James. I'll be sure to look at the advanced help on macros And thanks for your earlier help Gauss with the renaming. It really helped.

If you are using art tool text you can put that on the GM layer until revealed. Otherwise James' idea is a good one (that you can macro it). :) - Gauss

That will also require some extra looking, cause I'm not quite sure how to make the gm layer visible. Not only that, but the history is short, compaired to the fact that it spans quite a few years(Thinking yellow turban rebelion was 184, Chi Bi was close to 200)

To move an object from the GM layer to another layer right click on the object (art objects count) and then go to the layer submenu and click on the layer you want it to move to.  In any case, this seems like handout territory. Handouts can have text in them as well. When you are ready to reveal the handout edit it and select the player(s) (or all) you wish to be able to see it.  - Gauss
