IPad apps?
Hi, I was wondering if there where any good Ipad apps for Eclipse Phase out there. As a DM I like to use my Ipad for effect noise, .pdf, etc I would like to see a character sheet api maybe? something to keep track of backups etc? tanky yu!

I'm not aware of any EP-specific ipad apps yet. But Goodreader is a must for viewing the EP PDF files.

I don't know the ipad envuronment and apps, but if there is anything like Celestia it would be a great tool for showing players where things are. "Gentlebeings, if you should choose to accept this mission you need to go... here. As you can see, it is a rather remote moon of Saturn."

Leading from Goodreader, have a look at FastPDF. I find it can render pages quicker when I am flicking through them, but they do not look as nice. Perfect for at the table when you are looking for a rule, and don't care if the pictures look a little off.

There are a bunch of astronomy apps, including the very good Mars Globe HD and a similar Moon globe which both show lots of detail for planetary settings there. The DM Toolkit app can be customized to support many gaming systems, but I haven't had the time to try to adapt to EP yet (although on my list) The Gamemasters toolkit is a sound effect app, although you could probably do as well with a simple playlist in iTunes. Finally, if you use MapTools, Mapnakotic is a client app to connect to a running MapTools session. Haven't tried it yet.
