1¾« Felicitations! Welcome to the AD&D (TM) Random City Generator (v1.0) ! My name is Justin S. B. Davis (73511,465). You may have sampled some of my previous work distributed on CompuServe. WARSINSW.ZIP : A shareware Warlords 2 utility for generating random signpost messages LILUX.ZIP : Warlords 2 Scenario - Land of the Blue Lilux, based upon Rich Corben's 1972 underground comic FANTAGORE I know I've sampled much of what others have graciously uploaded. The program RNDCIT.EXE is an Advanced Dungeons and Dragons (TM) campaign generation utility which I wrote in the early hours of Sunday, August 6, 1995. Whenever I compose adventures for FRUA and pencil-and-paper live-game use, I am always frustrated with the tedium and complexity of generating the vitals of a city or town involved in the adventure. To the best of my knowledge, about the best you get in the way of random city generation (until now, heh-heh) was a few tables in the Creative Campaigning DMG Supple- ment. Even then, the tables only generate inter-city encounters, not the city itself. This program will generate no maps. It will generate a workable and reason- ably thorough description of a randomly generated community. The descriptive text is both displayed on the CRT and captured in a text file designated by the user. The program is easy to use. Just enter RNDCIT, enter the text file name to capture the output, then hit the Y key as many times as you wish to generate city after city. Make sure that the file AD_D_CIT.TPU is in the same subdirectory as RNDCIT.EXE ! The variables generated include the city name, atmosphere (infernal, hostile, bustling, etc.), economic conditions, chief import and export products, if any, primary and secondary geography and racial breakdown, and other factors as well. Feel free to E-Mail me concerning any suggestions you have concerning the program's database of city characteristics, i.e. possible expansion of the import/export list, or the addition of a military factor. The AD&D (TM) Random City Generator was written in Borland Pascal v. 7 (TM). MAY YOU LIVE ALL THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE. (I actually read that in a fortune cookie) Justin S. B. Davis 73511,465 ADDENDUM ------------------ I have upgraded the program. Here is what you should know. 1) RNDCITWN.EXE is now included as a windows interface. All output is automatically sent to the file "CITY2.TXT" is the directory in which the program is included. 2) A new feature in both the Windows and DOS versions includes a feature which has a 7% chance of generating a "special factor".ÿîÿÿ<ÿÿ‹ÿÿØÿÿ(ÿÿuÿÿÈÿÿæÿÿèÿÿ8ÿÿ…ÿÿÔÿÿàÿÿâÿÿ.ÿÿzÿÿÅÿÿ ÿÿ ÿÿ€ w s7eü+$`Megü+ž Çàg_'ó8`› bš\š šbš0gt“pèŒhŠ_``3Çfh¤4 )fh_q`à )H_`Á(€ÉÿÿËÿÿÿÿCÿÿEÿÿ‹ÿÿ­ÿÿ÷ÿÿ6ÿÿ8ÿÿ{ÿÿ}ÿÿÈÿÿÿÿaÿÿ¯ÿÿøÿÿAÿÿÿÿÜÿÿÜìÿÿîÿÿ<ÿÿ‹ÿÿØÿÿ(ÿÿuÿÿÈÿÿæÿÿèÿÿ8ÿÿ…ÿÿÔÿÿàÿÿâÿÿ.ÿÿzÿÿÅÿÿ ÿÿ ÿÿ 2 ÿÿ^ ÿÿ` ÿÿt ÿÿ ÿÿ ÿÿƒ ÿÿ ÿÿ¡ ÿÿÞ ÿÿà ÿÿ7 ÿÿˆ ÿÿØ ÿÿ ÿÿ.ÿÿzÿÿÅÿÿ ÿÿ ÿÿ Arial
