Haven't seen one available anywhere, or even any mentions of whether one exists or not. Of course I might have been looking in the wrong place...any suggestions would much appreciated  Cheesy

There isn't a screen available yet. The crafty guys have in the past basically said that, if one is to come at all, it's quite a ways off.

I've got a few sheets I use clipped to an old screen, would that be helpful?

Follow-up question, what would you LIKE to see in a GM screen and how big would you want it to be?

For me, 3-panel.  Conditions and Standard actions, Combat rounds, Action Dices usage.   Trying to think of other things that would be a quick lookup item.

Portrait or Landscape oriented?
My default is to go Portrait since I already have a few things formatted in that direction

By far the absolutely most important table is the sliding DC one.

Portrait.  I think of the old 3 Panel tri fold D&D style.

Landscape. They go nicely in the Savage Worlds screen.

Aside from the sliding DCs I would suggest the NPC traits-to-stats, size categories, and cover charts.

Any kind of screen beats no screen, but all the suggestions you had and that other folks have had as to content sound good to me...it's funny though, normally I prefer landscape screens but for Fantasycraft's old-school-feel I'd have to say gimme a portrait  Cheesy

I have those blank screens that you put your own paper in. I have a 4-panel portrait one and a 3-panel landscape one(from the Savage Worlds guys I think). I don't care to buy actual screens, but a PDF thingie I could just print out and put in the customizable screens I already have would be awesome.

Ok, I think I'll try to whip something up in the next few days, aiming for nowhere near as overloaded as the spycraft 2.0 package I put together a few years back.

Item damage saves. And maybe the Notice modifier chart (light, noise, and whatnot). For myself, I can do without the NPC grade-to-stat chart as a screen insert. But that's just me.
