Big fan of the activity and very thrilled to see a V2. Wish I could see the changes you've made.
@diolongom Same here! It's definitely one of my favourite RGs to play. :D
I'm sorry but what changes can't you see?
Is the text or something not displaying correctly?
This is a real improvement and your detailed explanation is great. Thanks for the links to the 'scramble sites', they are going to be very useful in the future. Cheers!
Is it possible for you to upload a google drive link of the PowerPoint? Since the file is too big, non-subscribers (which are most of us I feel), can't download or view your PowerPoint. My kids loveeee Exploding Kittens, so I would really love to use this new template if you can share a link! Thanks so much! :D
@Domdijock Hi, actually I already have! It's the very first link at the top of the page. :)
Omg I didn't even notice that lol. Sorry! Guess I should've drunk more coffee this morning!
This is amazing! What are the fonts you're using? I can't edit the ppt without adding them
Yes me too - can't edit because of read only embedded font Pokemon GB.
@Isuna @kusobaba That's odd. Are you using Google Slides? I double checked and all the fonts should be embedded for editing.
I have uploaded all the fonts to this post now. Hopefully it works now.
Also another thing is that the fonts Tay used should be on her site.
You can find them here: https://www.taysteachingtoolkit.com/games/exploding-kittens%3A-the-review-game
At a different school today so different laptop but got the same message - 'This presentation cannot be edited because it contains read-only embedded fonts' - and the font in question is Pokemon GB. There are two options - open in read-only mode or remove restricted fonts and open. The second option seems to work fine and there doesn't seem to be a problem with the powerpoint. This only happened after your edit - the very first file you uploaded was editable. I don't know anything about powerpoint and fonts so this is just FYI in case it is useful to you. Cheers.
Sorry I forgot to say that no, I'm not using Google Slides.
I second that issue. When trying to edit I also get the 'pokemon GB' message.
@kusobaba @apantalena Okay! I have now replaced the 'pokemon GB' with another font that is not restricted. I changed it to 'Minecraft Ten". You can download it in attachments. It should be okay now!! Please lmk if you have any issues.
It is OK! Thank you.
There is another issue actually. Every time I save the presentation there's a message that some fonts cannot be saved "[FONT] NHHandwriting-Medium". The reason given is "General Disorder". Does this matter? I installed all the fonts you uploaded twice over but it still persists.
@kusobaba Hmmm I'm sorry, I'm not an IT expert. But have you tried installing the fonts as an Admin? If you right click on the font and click "Install for all Users" or "Run as Admin" that should work. I tried looking up online for the error "General Disorder" but can't seem to find anything. I tried replicating what you did on another computer and I don't get the same issue. I recommend asking in the Microsoft Forums here: https://answers.microsoft.com/ I'm sorry I can't be much of a help.
No problem. Tried that but it's the same. Anyway it doesn't seem to matter so I'm just ignoring it. General Disorder sounds more like a joke than a real error anyway. Cheers.
My kids absolutely loved this today. Thanks for uploading
@Isuna glad to hear that :')
