I was wondering if there is a way to connect upto 7 players on one PC (I know some of this is gonna be software), the objective of this project is:
1. allow 1 player omnipotent control over the main screen that all players view.
2. have 6 players control one icon on the main screen (using mouse and keyboard controls), and have a second screen for personal use (mainly showing excel and pdf documents)
3. not require login to a outside network (like steam)
4. Contain a number randomizer for dice rolls if needed
5. have the ability to play sounds/music
6. Capability to saved multiple players data
the idea i have would be to have 1 small screen for each player (6) 2 larger screens for the DM/GM (Game leader) and one 60" tv in the center where a map and player icons would be displayed. each person would be able to move their character on the board/TV from their station, as well as be able to view their character information on their personal screen. The DM/GM would be able to move all characters as needed, be able to view all character data for each player, and look up required information on reference materials/online.
I am thinking this would be something like 7 gamers-1 PC, but should not cost as much because the graphics only need to be good on one screen.
