At first I was "Oooh, I like board games!" but then I was "aww, Sorceforge" and then later I was "Aww, Java". I'll stick with Tabletop Simulator for now, but you'd think something like this could be implemented in plugin-free HTML5 by now.
- tokenizerrr 11y agoJava for desktop isn't at all bad.
- skrowl 11y agoI'll assume you're on Mac. I roll windows here and haven't had Java installed in almost 3 years. Couldn't be happier. Can't wait until I can do the same to Flash.
- tokenizerrr 11y agoNope, I'm on Windows and Ubuntu. I don't have any Java in the browser, on ubuntu I apt-get the openjdk and on Windows I use ninite.

- BashiBazouk 11y agoOff topic, but where are we on Sourceforge? I read a few scary articles but have not been following close enough to know how bad it is. Is it all project downloads have crapware bundled to the installer or is it just the occasional unmaintained project, so be careful? Somewhere in between? I was bored this weekend cleaning up bookmarks and came across a link to MegaMek. I played it long ago but it was not quite up to the level of being fun for me. I saw it had progressed quite a few versions and went to download it to see if it had improved only to be taken to Sourceforge. And that was the end of that. Is my paranoia justified?
