Make Your Own Book!
For the ease of everyone (hopefully), you can now use the following link to create a book to be used IG:
http://illarion.org/~abcfantasy/us_bookgen.php
If the javascript is not working, use the following: http://illarion.org/~abcfantasy/us_book ... ?no_opti=1 (thanks Merung)
- The page is for now in English only (may be translated in german too).
- All books need to be written in both english and german.
- Maximum of 250 pages per book.
- Maximum of 200 characters per page (it won't let you type any further).
- Once you click Generate Script, a new window will open with the code. PM the code to me, and in that PM, you may include any more information you wish (Ex. where you want the book to be, etc...).
- Any questions, ambiguities, confusion, bugs, etc... you can reply here, PM me or contact me via MSN.
-------
Now that it should be somewhat easier to write books, I wish to ask people to create books for each craft, describing what the craft is, what basic tools are needed, how to craft, etc... enough to get a new player get a basic idea of how it works. Carpentry, Lumberjacking and Fishing are done.

Here's a treat for the one who stickied the post (finally):
Translation of the first post:
Zur allgemeinen Arbeitserleichterung (hoffentlich) derjenigen, die ein in-game Buch schreiben wollen, kann nun der folgende Link verwendet werden:
http://illarion.org/~abcfantasy/us_bookgen.php
- Die Seite ist (vorerst) nur auf Englisch verfügbar (spätere Übersetzung nicht ausgeschlossen)
- Alle Bücher müssen auf Englisch und Deutsch geschrieben werden.
- Maximal 250 Seiten pro Buch
- Maximal 200 Zeichen pro Seite
- Sobald man "Generate Script" anklickt, öffnet sich ein neues Fenster mit dem code des Buches. Schickt diesen als Nachricht über das Forum an mich (Abcfantasy). Fügt dieser Nachricht zusätzlich Informationen über das Buch bei (Wo ihr das Buch haben wollt, etc...)
- Bei auftretenden Fragen, Verwirrungen, Fehlern etc. könnt ihr euch hier melden, mir über das Forum als Nachricht schicken oder mich im MSN kontaktieren (Abcfantasy)
----
Nun da es einigermaßen einfacher sein sollte Bücher zu verfassen, wünsche ich mir, dass Bücher für jedes Handwerk geschrieben werden,
schildernd, was das Handwerk ist, welches Werkzeug benötigt wird,
wie man es anwendet etc... genügend Informationen um einem neuen Spieler eine grobe Idee zu geben wie es funktioniert.
Schreinerei, Holzfällen und Fischen sind schon fertiggestellt.

The problem is, that would not always be desired. What if users want to end the sentence at the end of the page, and not have an incomplete sentence (as most of the current books are)? Or they want to write only a few words and then start a new page (ex. titles/chapters/etc...)?
In addition to that, there might be a problem with the two languages, since they would have different lengths and thus different number of pages.
If you are bothered writing in a single text box because of text going "out" of the box (in which case you can still see the text by using normal scrolling keys such as left/right arrow keys, home, end, etc...), you can use a site such as http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/scr ... ount.shtml to write a page, making sure you don't skip the 200 character limit. Then copy the text and paste in the text box.

Does it even work?
I tried it now with Opera, Firefox and even *shiver* Internet explorer, no matter what buttons I click, it all stays the same, it generates no scripts, there is no comment box, it won't let me set any pagenumber, it stays with the first page only and the only thing that even seems to work is the reset button, so is it just me or has everyone these problems?
