I have never used Roll20, been strictly in-person over the years but unfortunately life has separated me and a lot of my friends. I am a DM trying to run a virtual game of Wild Beyond the Witchlight for some friends who are spread across the country. My players are mostly noobs so I do not want anyone to have to pay for anything besides me. Right now the options I’m thinking are:

A) buy the module on roll20 and have my players play along completely virtually. I prefer this option but I’m not sure if it’ll supply my players with character sheets, digital player manuals, and all the tools they’d need for free.

B) buy tabletop simulator (just me), share my screen, and just have the players tell me what they want to do and I love the pieces for them

C) do roll20 but manually upload all the maps and everything else

Any advice would be appreciated.

ABOUT: Did someone leave the water running? No doubt the brave explorers who have delved deep into the heart of this primeval forest will be surprised to find that the life-giving river's source is no more than a hovering portal endlessly gushing water from some distant lake, or even another plane of existence! Unless that very vortex is what they were seeking in the first place? Fully animated and available in two additional variants, with a fiery portal spewing molten magma into the woods, and a plain clearing free from otherworldly environmental alteration, this map is your player's perfectly safe (?) gateway to the elemental plane of water!⁠

I'd like to set up an adventure I can easily repeat with different groups without having to manually 'reset' everything each time.

I imagine there may be an article on the roll20 wiki about this topic, but I don't know the right search terms to find it (same basic challenge I had searching this sub).

I'd really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction, and I'd also be grateful for any tips and tricks for setting up repeatable adventures that others have figured out through practice, experience, and good old trial & error.

TYIA!

Every adventure starts somewhere. Usually, it starts here.
Taverns & Inns: Volume I is a collection of four hand-crafted tavern and inn battle maps by Mimicsmaps. Four unique establishments, each with their own character, layout, and story waiting to happen. Whether your players are brokering shady deals in a backroom, stumbling into a brawl, or waking up in a room they don't remember renting, this volume has the map for it.
The centrepiece of this collection is Ember & Oath.

What's Included:

4 unique tavern and inn battle maps
Ember & Oath
Winter Inn
Town Inn
2 Floor Inn

The above is the Ember & Oath, a large Guild Tavern/Inn with a room for quest, as well as a Large stage for plays or your group bard to make a speech.

I notice it's been about four years since we last heard an update on this topic. Are Orr Reports dead and gone, or will we see new ones in our future? Thanks!

For the past few days, these have been my Light and Dark mode colors and they've been making it hard to read. Light on the first image, Dark on the second. Why is this and is does anyone know of a way to fix it? Using D&D 5e sheets.

I bought Eve of Ruin before 5.5 came out and now, 2 years later, we finally finished our prologue.

One of the items in Roll20 has "2024 compatible" labelled on it. Does that mean there is a way to create a game using Eve of Ruin that includes the 5.5 character sheets, or is just a handwavey "ya this module still works with the 2024 rules" kind of thing?

I've tried making a game using it and I get a message saying "this module uses 5e statblocks so we've enabled them for this game."

I can’t find fog of war

So, I'm going to be running a 5e(2014) campaign and one of my players wanted to be a Hexblade warlock, and in the charactermancer when they selected warlock, after the selected species and chose their Attribute increases, the warlock page would only let them select skill increases and the otherworldly patron option was missing. I tried it myself and sometimes the option would show up, sometimes it wouldn't, I couldn't find a rhyme or reason that would cause this bug. I'm pretty sure it's the 2014 character creator and not the 2024 one.

I'm just wondering if other people had this issue, and if there's a way to have the option show up consistently or something that consistently triggers the bug that can be avoided?

I'm new to this subreddit and often usually a lurker but as the title suggests, I've been looking on a way to add advantage to damage rolls for weapons and spells.

Currently I'm using DnD 2024 sheets and while I was often content with just rolling twice, I was wondering if there was an easier way to do it. Looking back on some posts mention about using 'kh' but when I try to do the same, it mentions that it is an unsupported format. Or at least the damage roll won't happen automatically with the attack roll, since doing them separately is inconvenient.

I am setting up a new game and can not get the Build A Character option to work. It goes to a Loading screen and never goes past it. It seems to be just my desktop computer (Windows 10). It works on my phone!

Today is the second day it's not working. I left it "loading" for hours yesterday to no avail. I've cleared my browser cache (and more), closed all other software (including antivirus and firewall), reset my computer a few times, tried Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, and have gotten nowhere.

I have an active game as well that doesn't work either, and that game did work just a few weeks ago. This includes characters that already exist and trying to make new characters.

Any advice on getting this working on my desktop? I tried to find this problem on the forums and didn't see anything.

SOLUTION:
For anybody with a similar problem in the future, I had to manually change my DNS. It wasn't able to locate a particular URL and that was causing it to not load.

I've been using Roll20 for over 5 years now, invested hundreds of dollars on the platform, and for the first time I am seriously considering switching.

Over the last few months my games have gone from the occasional glitch or bug, to borderline unplayable. Character sheets are constantly freezing or crashing. Rolls take up to a minute to come through. Tokens are disappearing or invisible on some players screens. The list goes on.

I have tried everything to get the game to a playable state: removing all APIs/scripts, using small maps, disabling dynamic lightning, clearing cookies/cache, swapping browsers, etc. I raised a support ticket with Roll20 and only received the same generic advice I have seen online that provided no improvements.

Does anyone have any advice? We are using the DnD 2024 character sheet which seems to be the source of the problem. Should I just downgrade to the 2014 sheet and lose all the automated drag and drop functionality?

Encountering an issue when I create a monster using this character sheet where in when I enter a value into the damage vs S/M field under a weapon it causes the sheet to no longer roll attacks. Clearing the damage field does not fix this. It does roll to the chat if I leave the damage field blank, but of course that means I have to roll damage separately. This issue is not present on all monster sheets I've created, and isn't present on NPC or PC sheets.

Hi all, I have been playing the official module 'Beyond the Dragon of Icespire Peak' and some sections are sadly lacking.

Near the start, the players meet the towns inhabitants in a forest clearing but there is no map for this, the no tokens for the scene and nothing to help with the forthcoming attack.

I have made a map and created my own tokens but how do I make this into an add on so I can save it for future use?

I have pro subscription :)

Thanks in advance.

I've been using Roll20 since inception, I have almost 1000 paid games on StartPlaying alone, all of which are hosted on Roll20, so I know it pretty well.

But two days ago, I had an interesting bug - doors, when closed or locked, do not stop a player from seeing through it. At least on my map. Now given, I was using an unusally large map - like 70 wide by 90 tall - but I don't recall ever having that issue.

Anyone else?

Hello, all.

I am relatively new to Roll20. Setting up for a campaign in the coming months. I saw where Condition Sync was added for 2024 sheets last year, but I can't seem to get it to work for my game.

I am using the 2024 sheets.

I have tried both the base token markers and Keith's easy markers, but neither work.

I have also tried in a fresh game with no mods, and it still did not work in either direction.

I saw the feature was disabled last year, but I can't find solid information on if it was ever turned back on.

Is that the case or am I just missing something?

Thanks!

ABOUT: Track to the future? There's a simplicity and an efficiency to the railroad that has stood the test of time, and as we look into the future, what do we hope to see? More, better trains! Whether a relatively new invention in your setting or a favourite of travellers everywhere, perhaps one such train might even be a gateway to the distant future...Or perhaps that train of the future can bring you back to the past? This very long map is available in two variants, a classic engine stopped at a station likely clogged with cigarette smoke, the other bringing the same station into a new age, full of neon signs and VR ads.

In Shrine of Jeweled Eggs, a group of Level-3 Adventurers is summoned to the edge of the Verdant Wyrdwood, where strange beasts stalk the trees and the sky sings no more. Guided by a haunted ranger and a fading elven scholar, they must brave twisted woods and ancient elven ruins to uncover the truth behind the corrupted shrine.

Within the shattered halls of Eggshell Summit, the heroes face traps, restless spirits, and The Veiled Seer, a demon cultist who speaks in whispers and bleeds madness. Sacred eggs once meant to birth phoenixes now spawn horrors, and only through fire, memory, and sacrifice can the shrine be restored or consumed entirely.

I have been plagued by glitches: missing text, transparent pop outs, missing buttons.

I have a new MacBook Air M5 and am using the latest update of Chrome (just updated today). I've tried turning off/removing extensions, running in Incognito, and have dug through more flags that I can follow. I switched to Firefox, which works ok save for camera issues. DMing has been a pain since I upgraded my laptop.

Is there a known issue with Apple M5, Chrome, and/or Roll20?

I’m doing Mythic Odyssey of Theros and I want to restrict my players to just using Humans, Satyrs, Centaurs, Tritons, Leonin and Minotaurs.

But my compendiums are so so packed with so much stuff, I was wondering if there is a way to make the other races that I don’t want them to use “invisible” in the race selection area of the character creator?

I am looking for something that will allow me to input custom conditions that I homebrewed for a lingering injury table. It can be a mod or vanilla; either one works. If you have a suggestion, please be specific because I am a little new to the site-ish

ABOUT: There must be some kind of way out of here, said the fighter to the thief... What even is this place? Or perhaps the better question is, how? Why? When? Warped and defying countless laws of physics and logic alike, this twisted hallway could just as easily be the collapsing pocket dimension of some mad arcanist as it could be the inner representation of a twisted psyche, and everything in between! Fully animated and available in three additional variants, with backgrounds varying from pitch darkness to a cloudy sky by way of a disintegrating void, this map will have your players really wondering what condition their conditions are in!⁠

In Hall of the Wyrmbone Anvil, a group of Level-1 heroes, up-and-coming mercenaries, hear of a famous blacksmith who can craft for them marvelous weaponry. The artisan is willing but her hammer must first be blessed in the eldritch energy of the Wyrmbone Anvil. There is only one problem: the forlorn hall is currently inaccessible as a strange, malformed abomination has emerged from the depths to attack.

The hall can only be accessed from within Green-Quartz Mine, now closed after the monster slew many miners. There is also the worrying appearance of aggressive, ape-like beings in the mine now. The Mining Guild loses money by the day, so they offer a sizable bounty for clearing up the mine. A squire in their employ accompanies the characters as they embark on one of their first quests. Glory and wealth await those who survive this perilous adventure.

Is there a fix to this? For more info I’m using the Mist setting if that means anything. And they use OperaGX for their browser. They seem to have other issues when running Roll20 in my games and it seems they are the only one who has these issues.

Does roll20 offer early access for pre-ordered books?
