A downloadable VTT for Windows, macOS, and Linux

IsoCON is a 3d virtual tabletop custom-made for games with turn-based combat where positioning, elevation, and line of sight matters. With a low learning curve and easy to use tools, you can create 3d terrain about as quickly as you could draw on a battlemat, or spend the time to really set the stage with painting and environmental controls.

IsoCON is still in beta! Bugs can be reported at https://github.com/delzhand/isocon.

I just wanted to say: found you through Bluesky, and this tool looks absolutely phenomenal, I have barely begun playing around with it but I'm already impressed. There's a few games in my library that I'd given up on the idea of running virtually because 3D relations (elevation, etc) are key to how they work and tracking those through Foundry, Roll20, Owlbear, all the usual suspects is possible but not easy, reflexive or compelling, and here you are doing just exactly that with STYLE and graphical flair.

I don't have words for how happy I am to find this project.

Thanks! I'm glad you like it!

I just wanted to comment that this is a project that I have been following for a hot minute, and every time I think about it inspires me to build and explore new ideas.

Thank you for making something so cool!

Hi! I seem to be having trouble opening isoCON on my MacBook, I just wanted to know if the app is compatible with the most recent version of macOS. This looks really cool and it sucks that I cant play it

Hey is there anywhere I can read/watch to set this up? I've set the port forward to the 7777 and I can't get anyone to join. I can join myself but others can't. What am I doing wrong?

idk if it’s a possible i doubt it but a mobile version would be so nice

Hello <:3 I open the app and I stay stuck on the patchnotes screen, any work arounds?

It seems that if your UI scale config make the patch notes modal larger than the window, it's impossible to close. I'll fix that in the next release. As a workaround, you can edit your config file (C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\isocon\Isocon\config.dat) and set ReleaseNotesSeen like so: "ReleaseNotesSeen":"|0.7.0|0.7". Thanks for reporting this issue!

This is super awesome! Is there a video tutorial or something to running it?
Or an easy access token library?

I keep changing the interface up so I don't have a video tutorial yet, but there are built-in tutorials for various elements. Maybe once it's out of beta! As far as a token library, Isocon doesn't come with any tokens but you can load any PNG from your device.

heyo, this is an amazing app. i'm planning on using this to host games of maleghast, but i have a quick question: how do i implement heresy for my black mass,  if that's currently implemented?

You can select units from any house, and all you need to do is use the house color override to match your heretic units to your main house!

this is really fantastic work considering it's free and fanmade by a solo dev (unless this is a team?)

Thanks! 99% solo but I've had a few people contribute on github to close an open issue here or there, and I'm very thankful for their efforts!

Awesome stuff!
