ScryMarket 2.0 is here!
Every page, every flow, every pixel has been rebuilt from the ground up. We call it Arcane Modern: a glassmorphism design language with aurora accents, smooth animations, and glass panels that feel like looking through a magical crystal ball. Available in dark and light modes. This is what Scrying should feel like.
The entire frontend has been rewritten with a modern stack: React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind v4, and Framer Motion. Pages lazy-load. Forms validate instantly. Everything is faster, smoother, and more responsive than before.
Here is what is new and what got better.
New Features
Loot Distribution:
GMs now have five ways to distribute loot. Need/Greed/Pass lets players vote on drops. Round Robin takes turns fairly. Value Balanced splits treasure evenly by worth. Random lets the dice decide. Or stick with free-form claiming and let your players sort it out. You choose the method that fits your table.
The Scrying Reveal:
Mystery items now have a proper reveal ceremony. When a GM identifies an item, the Scrying Reveal plays a cinematic animation: arcane circles, particle effects, mist, and a dramatic card flip. It turns a simple mechanic into a moment your players will remember.
AI Content Provenance:
Every piece of content on ScryMarket now tracks whether it was created by a human, generated by AI, or provided by the system. Users can choose how they want to interact with AI content: see everything, hide AI art but keep AI-generated items, or filter out all AI content entirely. The preference applies across the entire marketplace.
Fully Public Marketplace:
All publicly shared content is now browsable without an account. Items, shops, loot tables, collections, and creator profiles are all accessible to anyone. Good for sharing your creations with your table, good for new users who want to see what ScryMarket offers before signing up.
CSV Export:
Export any character or party inventory to CSV. Whether you need a backup, want to print a reference sheet, or just want your data in a spreadsheet, it is one click away.
Transaction Histories:
Every item transfer, shop purchase, loot roll, and currency exchange is now tracked in a searchable, filterable audit trail. Never wonder where that Bag of Holding went. Supports infinite scroll and CSV export.
Mystery Item Spawn Wizard:
GMs get a dedicated 3-step wizard for creating mystery items: pick a template, set the fake name and description, and choose the reveal scope. A proper flow instead of the old dialog.
Identification System:
The full lifecycle for mystery items. Mark items as unidentified, set reveal scope (owner only, party, or auto), request identification, approve or reject requests, and trigger the dramatic Scrying Reveal. The system tracks the entire chain from mystery to discovery.
Onboarding Wizard:
New users are greeted with a 4-step guided setup: pick your role (player or GM), choose your game system, optionally create a starter character, then join or create a party. Skip it if you already know what you are doing.
Party Announcements:
When GMs reveal shops or loot to the party, animated modals fire in real-time for every online member. Gold for shops, cyan for loot. They queue up if multiple reveals happen at once and auto-dismiss after 15 seconds.
Inventory Sharing:
Generate a token-based link to share any character inventory as a read-only public page. No account needed to view. Great for sharing builds or showing off your loot.
AI Workshop:
A dedicated page for generating items from natural language descriptions. Describe what you want, preview the result, and save it to your library. Usage meters show how many generations you have left on your plan.
Command Palette:
Press a keyboard shortcut to open a command palette for quick navigation anywhere in the app. Jump to any page, search for content, or trigger common actions without touching the mouse.
What Got Better
Character and Party Inventory:
The inventory interfaces have been completely redesigned. Better layout, smoother transitions, easier collaboration. GMs see every member’s containers at a glance. Players see their own gear plus shared party storage. Drag-and-drop transfers sync in real-time over WebSocket.
Shops:
The shop interface has been rebuilt with hero banners, management tabs, and a cleaner transaction flow. Buying and selling is faster. Deploying shops from the marketplace now lets you customize names and pricing on the fly.
Marketplace and Discovery:
The new Discover page surfaces trending items, community picks, top creators, and featured collections without requiring you to know what you are searching for. Filtering is faster and more flexible across all content types.
Collections:
Collections now support sharing, saving, and categorizing any type of content: items, shops, loot tables, or a mix. The creation and editing flows are smoother, with game system selectors and better organization tools.
Notifications:
The notification center now has proper filtering, unread tracking, pagination, and digest preferences. No more wondering if something happened in your party while you were away.
Image Upload and AI Art:
Template creators can upload custom images or generate AI art from any creation form. Human and AI art slots are tracked independently. Upload your own art later and it replaces the AI version cleanly.
