Nope, not yet.
Also, here's me copying Gusto:
Motivation
- Bastian's present task is to deliver two tomes to the new Temple of Allytyn in Cotone and to the temple's benefactor, Achard Pall.
- He is expecting to set out from Cotone to minister on the teachings of the temple after his deliveries are complete.
- In life as a whole, Bastian struggles to fully understand his faith. He is a devout follower of the temple's teachings but, like most followers of Allytyn, faces a conflict between the cold, distant nature of his faith with the emotional turmoil of being human.
Personality
- Quiet, but blunt when he speaks
- He is slow to anger, despite a history of trouble as a youth
- His faith is the center of his entire world view
- He both fears and appreciates change
- Patient, perhaps to a fault, as the “march of time” is central to the temple's teachings
- Somewhat distant, comfortable in his solitude
- Driven by a purpose to exact change through ministry.
- Non-judgmental
Likes
- reading
- prayer
- practicing his martial arts
- philosophy (though it is an interest only)
- he has acquired a taste for fresh and exotic fruits
Dislikes
- willful ignorance
- alcohol
- rich foods
- abuse of power/oppression of the poor or minority

Was that the right file? It opened up VLC media player when I tried to unpack it. I am on a Mac, so I'm not sure what is in the .rar file.

Figured it out. I just needed a .rar extractor.

Hmm...I may need to load this on my work computer. I don't have my laptop dual-booting yet.

OK, I downloaded gametable from SourceForge and it can run on my Mac that way (no .exe to run). I transferred over your pogs from Jay's game and those work. I'm not sure what else I might need but it doesn't look like the two versions are completely compatible. Can anyone test it with me? I can always run Jay's version on my work laptop (which sucks hard) but if I can get this one to work it would be fantastic!

Looks like there is an issue with the underlays folder. When I put all the contents of that folder from Jay's version into the latest gametable version from SourceForge, the program doesn't load for me. Not sure which file it is but I might be able to narrow it down.

Make sure Java is up to date.
I don't have Vent downloaded or installed yet but can try connecting gametable. Connection info?
Doesn't look like the SourceForge version is connecting. Could be my router or could be the two versions are incompatible. I did have to delete 3 underlay files from Jay's version and have numerous additional underlay files with the new version too. I've only copied over the pog folder and overlay and underlay files. There may be other discrepancies but it looks like Jay's version and the SourceForge version are not compatible.
Trying now with latest settings. Getting a failure to connect message.
There doesn't seem to be a way to install anything from the rar gusto provided, unless I'm missing it entirely, so I'm assuming it can't find the gametable app because it was never installed. It simply opens to a folder titled "gametable solaria" then "game table RC8' the contents of which are seemingly what would be in the program folder once installed.
There is an .exe you can run, I think, though not on a Mac. There is a .jar file that runs as well, though the program crashes for me for whatever reason. The SourceForge version is only a .jar and does run on my machine.

By the way, the .rar probably unpacked a folder in your downloads folder (or wherever you put it) called GameTable Solaria, which has all of that stuff in it.

Hmm...I wonder if something is corrupted somewhere for us.
Added at: 18:24
There is definitely something corrupted in the underlays folder. I deleted all of the files and replaced them with the SourceForge version and it ran from the .jar Couldn't connect with it, though.
Added at: 18:27
Had the wrong IP though. Ha. Still not connecting with the right info.

It wouldn't even open with the image files it came with. Now I can get it to run after replacing them.
Yeah, I gathered that. Your version won't run, unfortunately. However, I DID get it to run only after deleting some of those custom images. That tells me the build you are using is flaking out when loading one or more of those custom images. When I just put the PNGs in there, it will load up and run. Connecting seems to be a separate issue.
That's awesome! Should have gotten pics!
