Here's my other campaign. This one's a bi-weekly (or whenever we can get everyone together) D&D 5 game set in Greyhawk, but a Greyhawk based on the original TSR boxed set, Greyhawk adventures, and a few things from the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer...and nothing else. Largely I'm using it as a clean slate, looking up info on areas of the world when I need them and tweaking them to my needs. No metaplot, no Greyhawk Wars...I'm taking it back to the beginning, adding things as I need them, and I've got my own plans.
I think mine is coming together pretty nice, but I have this problem. I have three campaigns running in this world simultaneously, and none of the players really check out the wiki. That ok, but I think part of the problem might be organization. I have a lot of information but I know it could be organized better. IF anyone has any suggestions for that, or in general, I'd appreciate it.
Have you asked your players why they aren't using the wiki? Or what they would like to see in the wiki? There may be a disconnect between what information you think they want to see and what they actually are interested in seeing.
I typically add in some features in my wiki that adds some player interaction. In my shadowrun xcom campaign it is their commlinks, but in less technologically advanced campaigns it would be some sort of magical message system (like the message spell, dream spells, etc). Adding messages to individual players does help get them viewing OP as a useable tool for roleplaying their characters and for me to advance/introduce the plot points.
Good call, cgregory - I've had the same struggle, but on the pages that are specific with secrets and what have you, those got initial use, but when I stopped updating, they stopped using.
I suppose I could use some feedback for the one I am working on. It is still a WIP, but at least what I have done up to this point can be "graded". I know my characters page (when you actually clock a character) is absolutely broken and I don't know how to fix it to match the rest of my page.
We haven't started playing yet, as I am still world building. This originally started out a few years ago as a Pathfinder campaign, and I am now moving it over to D&D 5e. A few more things here and there, and I should be ready to start recruiting some players!
@cgregory thanks, I'll see if I can get that to work.. We need an official Discord channel it would be so much easier/faster for responses, discussions etc :)
Please let me know what you think as I am looking at doing some renovation taking into account the lessons I learned while working on the campaign I'm a mere player/scribe in - https://thepriceofimmortality.obsidianportal.com/. Learned some new css tricks there, which may make it back to the Knights of the Realm.
Let me know what you think, I'll look forward to your feedback.
Looking good, and, as you noted, its a pretty obvious copy of Ikabodo (I know, he does great work). I feel like with some minor graphics changes you could really set apart your content from his work, without having to spend a ton of CSS labor (I mean, that's why we're all here, right? To share CSS?)
Just a note to the community that Gamma World 2754 concluded earlier this year after 88 sessions and 3+ years. How time flies.
My next project is Arcanearth, a D&D5e conversion of the Fall From Heaven fantasy setting for Civilization IV. At present consisting only of a few graphics, background and a gleam in the GMs eye.

Hello, it looks like nothing has been posted on here in awhile, but since Obsidian Portal has fixed some of the major issues that were plaguing it, I have found new energy to work on the Obsidian Portal campaign. So, if anyone has any suggestions, let me know. My campaign is "Marvel Superheroes: A What If Story" Title inspired by those old What If comics. It's been long-running now, going for 6 years. It has had 5 different groups of players or maybe 6? And has been played kind of all over the world at this point, from Philadelphia to Japan. So, here it is. I would say that the most impressive feature of it is the sheer mass of characters that have appeared and adventures done. Stylistically, it's lacking sadly. Anyways, thanks for taking a look.

@vishera- One way to "fix" the character page is to make them all wikis- that is what we did.
Another option is to check out Kallak's great Dangerous Kalamar campaign. https://dangerous-kalamar-4.obsidianportal.com/characters
Just trying to help out.
@killervp how do I make the actual character sheets a wiki page?
I mean I get that I can make a page with a list of all the characters, but when actually viewing them, is when it looks all messed up.@Vishera what you are looking for is
where 1200px is whatever you want your character sheet width to be
And the campaign is coming along very nicely. I'll take a closer look tomorrow when I have more time.They are among us!

Hi folks, I'm curious about your feedback on my Pendragon campaign; https://knights-of-the-realm-1.obsidianportal.com/. I've been heavily inspired by Ikabodo's work (https://www.obsidianportal.com/profile/ikabodo), much kudos for the stuff he allowed me to beg, borrow and steal.
Please let me know what you think as I am looking at doing some renovation taking into account the lessons I learned while working on the campaign I'm a mere player/scribe in - https://thepriceofimmortality.obsidianportal.com/.

3 more fans and we have made the main (first) page for campaigns!
Bittersweet...as many of the folks that were cheering us on are no longer around.

Well, at the very least that brings the total number of active campaigns on the front page to 1 more than there was previously.
