    Fallout: Equestria PnP RPG Rule Set

    Looks like a group of dedicated Fallout:Equestria fans has created a pen and paper RPG rule set for the story! Check out their copy paste below.

    Everyone knows the story of LittlePip, the Lightbringer, who crawled from beneath the cold, hard ground to bring harmony back to Equestria. But what about those who came before? Those who would follow after? Equestria has had many heroes, and the end of civilization isn't enough to end hope or desire.

    In the darkest hours new heroes might rise to make the world a better place, or in the light of LittlePip's accomplishments they might stand to make life better for those who still remain. Or even just carve a little piece of the world all their own.

    Fallout: Equestria PnP is the result of an ongoing, communal effort spanning over eight months of design and play-testing by at least twelve groups play groups, including many authors.

    A set of rules intended to allow players to play characters set in the post-apocalyptic world of Fallout: Equestria. Be wary, the world is a dangerous place and heroes have a way of falling apart.

    Source Filmmaker Pony Auto Lip Sync Package

    For you pony fans out there that like making those wonderful Gmod pony videos on Youtube, an auto lip sync package has been released to help with the tedious task of putting words into pony mouths. Check out the full details below and thanks for sharing Adamtheamazing64!

    I present something that I wish all Source Filmmaker Bronies to have in order for higher quality lip sync for the program. A pack that allows Version 3 Gmod Pony Models to have automatic lip sync for when an audio clip is dragged into Source Filmmaker.
    I put around 10 hours of work into making it work similar to how the Team Fortress 2 characters speak, mainly the heavy. Finished in 10 hours over 3 days.

    Here is the video with an example of how it looks when I finished it, as well as a tutorial in the description on how to install and set it up in Source Filmmaker: Video
    And BetterArtsAnimation on youtube presented a comparison using Applejack and the Engineer, using Dialogue from "Meet the Engineer": Video

    Public Pony Library - Ace2401 Memorial

    Copy Paste:

    This episode of the PPL is done as a tribute to the recently deceased Ace2401. We gathered some of his friends to help remember him and honor his memory. Every writer wants their work to spread and be read, and Ace wasn't an exception. If you could just peak at the memorial and his stories, you'd be doing him good. What follows is a link to his deviantART account: http://ace2401.deviantart.com/ If you don't watch the Memorial, at least just peak at his page. Thank you.

    Taiwan Bronies


    Copy Paste:

    Hello, Everypony!
    Friendship is Magic has started to air in Taiwan since May 5th, 2012; Meanwhile in Taiwan – Heart of East Asia -  we are happy to declare the first Taiwanese brony meetup a major success! This event was held on July 15th, for those who live in northern Taiwan. Over 60 bronies attended, and we had a blast!
         We got three big cakes for the celebration of birthday ponies, and had some common sense contest of the episode, then most importantly – sing the smile song !  We even had an night marketing as the “aftermeetup”. Eeyup! And finally played board games and some fun stuff until midnight. Totally a successful meet up though!

    We plan on having more meetups in Taiwan soon, so stay tuned!

    More backgrounds about Taiwan Bronies ---
    Here in Taiwan (NOT Thailand, Obviously), we had several argument with mainstream media. Which is a local kids TV station called YOYO, for they translated Twilight sparkle as sort of … erection drug (facehoof), and the rest of the Mane 6 also got their worst-possible-Chinese name. Fortunately, after hundreds of e- mail, They finally accept our Translation list (not all, but nearly half of them). It’s a greatest things ever! just like this meetup .
