Ash, I hope it is okay to post this here. It is a newly refactored tool for HQ quest notes..
Too late for the Jam, but I refactored HeroTeX as a quick way to format Quest notes in a style closely resembling the original books.
It is a set of LaTeX commands and as such it does 99% of the document formatting for you, just drop in your text and use a small array of mark-up commands to do standard things you see in HeroQuest notes (like new monster stat blocks). At your option you can even use macros to refer to Dread/Chaos, Zargon/Morcar, Fimir/Abomination, etc and build the same quest in different styles automatically.
For those who don't have LaTeX installed, I've just tested this on the free site "Overleaf.com" which allows you to upload the HeroTeX .zip file I've provided and start editing in minutes.
I posted instructions on my blog. It would be nice to know if this is working for someone else. This is v0.1, but if people are actually using using it, I will:
- complete the A4 formatting for our friends world-wide
- add a classic EU version of the notes
- update the assets and fonts to match the new HasbroQuest style
- update and republish the quest book macros I have used in the past.
- maybe get it to print booklets with different notes/maps on the various pages so that a few staples and back-side printing gives an authentic quest book.
I tried to attach an image, but it failed to publish? Sorry. there are some on my blog.
