Just imagine what kind of interesting thread you could have made instead of this.
So what's everyone working on today? I'm putting together some locations for a musicpunk setting I've been slowly developing over the last couple years.
Tyler Adams
>musicpunk
I have no idea what this means, please explain.
Jordan Robinson
I think it's just a punk music campaign.
Colton Flores
Basically, music is illegal.
Parker Brown
So puritan england during the Protectorship?
Angel King
Why isn't there a DMing General™ yet?
Leo King
>So what's everyone working on today?
Trying to find soundboard software that lets me play explosions and stuff while VLC is busy playing the background music.
Also writing equipmentlist and template blocks for a new campaign.
David Davis
Great question, I might know why.
The GMing threads tend to manifest as a gripe thread every so often (sometimes multiple at once) but discussions about running a game typically occur within a thread/general for whichever game.
However, I do agree it could be a powerful asset since many questions overlap.
Colton Bailey
There is the occasional "New GM, need advice" thread that mutates into a GMing general. Although is correct in saying

I think there used to be one, or at least an ongo8ng thread where people tried to compile DM resources and help. Don't know what happened to it. Maybe it could work now, however, I think it might just devolve into 3.pf/D&D discussion instead of staying broad enough to encompass most systems. But, if you want to give it a shot, I'll help you out.

You want DJing software, basically.
It's cumbersome to manage on top of running the TTRPG but I think your best option will be Mixxx.
Jose Brown
>Mixxx
Thanks, I'll check it out. Have you used it for that purpose before?
Kevin Watson
Guess I'll post some random DMing resources to make the thread worthwhile.

Planning on running a Cthulhu by Gaslight game for some friends. Can't find a good soundtrack though. I guess I could just put on general dark ambient, but I was hoping for something with more strings in it and more 19th century flavor. There's a lot of great stuff for the 1920's on youtube, but not so much for the era I'm doing.
Dylan Gomez
I haven't used it live yet but I have experimented with lining up some FX tracks.
It's really fun to make an actual scene happen in the software but I need to research its functionality more in the interest of more automation.
Also, I like to use an ASUS Transformer, which is an itty-bitty 2-in-1 and is hard to use Mixxx on.
Honestly, I've ripped through video game archives to great effect since they're full of loopable audio.
IceCast is also a handy technology if you want to host an online radio stream for a Roll20 game or similar scenario. Just anticipate some lag.
Jonathan Cooper
>online radio stream
Nah, it's a laptop connected to a tv screen in a garage. Nothing like stalling the game by eating pizza.
>video game archives
Been foraging those for the background music. Jesper Kyd is pretty great, a lot of his work on the Hitman games fits the tone I want to set perfectly.

Oh christ what is this, Oscar's Orchestra?

And in case y'all don't know what that is:

>It is set in the distant future, in the year 2743 (735,022,381,604 Tuesdays from the show (The 2743 was calculated with year 735, month 22, week 381 and day 604, as well as from the year the show was released, 1994)) in a city called New Vienna, and was about a talking piano called Oscar, who rebels against the evil dictator of the world, Thaddius Vent, who has banned music. Oscar and his fellow musical instruments plot against Vent and his henchmen, Lucius and Tank, and his soothsayer, Goodtooth, spouting his catchphrase 'You screamed, master!'.

At work but mentally prepping myself to run Adventurers League, Tomb of Annihilation for my group tonight. I was running a homebrew Star Wars Saga Edition game but got burnt out on the system and decided to switch back to 5e. Also just had a kid and that really puts a wrench in my creative gears, Id rather run a premade module for now.
>tfw we will never have a comfy GM general because Veeky Forums is filled with min maxers who dont even have a gm or play group

Congratulations. Enjoy any second of sleep you can get.

Filling out nation information for a 90's fantasy anime inspired setting. The idea is to provide enough information to allow DM's and players to springboard off of, but ultimately make the setting their own, and to allow players to have a dramatic impact on the world so that, if they want, they can change and evolve it to their needs.

To the user(s) that dumped all these PDFs: thank you so much.
A lot of these will be very helpful.

A solarpunk setting.
A majority of Veeky Forums thinks one can't make an interesting solarpunk setting and I took it as a challenge.
Nathaniel Long
Anything can be interesting as long as there's conflict. Whatcha got so far?
Hudson Lewis
It's a Man vs. Nature kind of thing. The PCs are essentially foresters who map out the world around them.

Nothing, because I'm a fucking lazy asshole that's keeping his friends waiting out of nothing but pure sloth haha

Between the execution of Charles1st and the Restoration of the monarchy, the Puritans amongst the Parlimentarians (winning side in English Civil War) had various laws enacted that included banning Christmas celebrations and music other than Psalms and hymns.
England was, for a time, referred to as a Commonwealth, and the period when Oliver Cromwell was Lord Protector (military dictator) is known as the Protectorate.
Cromwell's campaigns in Ireland against the majority Catholic population are still a sore point and cause of some of the resentment between Catholics and Protestants there.
That's just what I remember from 'O'Level History lessons, roughly 36 years ago, so it that's why there's no dates or great detail.
If you want more , Google English Civil War, etc.
