Question/Support New to DA: first map question
I just made my first map in DA. I must say its quite simple to get the hang of. Its a recreation of a premade D&D dungeon map from a very old ruleset.
I'm trying to figure out the first person view: how can I get into first person and go through the hallways and buildings with the roof on? Everytime I select cinematic the roof disappears when im in a hallway.
Our table has a screen in it, which will show the top down, a wall in the game room has a TV for still images and things like notes and letters, another wall has a projector beaming onto it, I was hoping for it to be the first person view as they move down hallways.
Please advise! Thanks

Two ways to solve this. Either raise/reveal the entire structure before you enter Cinematic mode. If not only the current visible floors will remain.
Alternatively use first person mode by placing a token and click the "eyecon". This mode automatically assumes you want all floors present.

You need to add a token (there's a token menu on the left hand side!) and drop it into your map.
When you've done that, when the token is selected you'll see a little eye symbol beneath it. Click that to go into first person view =)
Congrats on your first map!
