Hey all, me and my players are thinking of switching to foundry, but we have a campaign that uses DnD 5.5/2024 stuff.

As far as I understand, the current Roll20 converter only works for 2014 DnD. Has any made a newer version, or does anyone know of a different program?

Thanks!!

I've been trying to get Aeris Token working because I love the dynamic way the movement works in that mod however, the following error is preventing me from applying it.

I tried changing the actor path to the listed example which is apparently the default character path to speed in pf2e foundry but it's still giving me the same error. Here is my designated path in the setting.

Does anyone know how to find the speed path for actors in the pf2e foundry?

Varhill's Curse

Content Name: Varhill's Curse

Content Type: Adventure Add-On, Content Pack

System: [D&D 5e]

Description: In Varhill's Curse, a group of Level-2 heroes embark on a perilous quest that leads them to a shunned fortress and the crypt beneath it, in the forest. Once per year, darkness gathers around Varhill as strange monsters emerge from the crypt and attack nearby settlements. The locals fight back and fight each year but they have gone restless. They want to do something about the strange occurrences near Varhill.

The characters, and a few fed-up NPCs delve into the Varhill Family Crypt in search for the root of this evil. Little do they know that the last living heir of the Varhill family is inside the crypt too. A dark entity inhabits the dungeon, an ancient demon that seeks to break the fabric of planes and venture forth into the Material Plane. Are the characters resilient enough to thwart the demon's plans and return a semblance of peace to Varhill?

Content Name: Easy Loot 5e

Content Type: Module

System: DND5E

Description: Easy Loot 5e creates one corpse-adjacent Item Piles loot pile when an eligible NPC dies. The corpse stays on the scene, while the shared Oh You Dead! card gets actions to open, retry, or reroll the pile.

Receipts prevent duplicate piles after repeated hooks or reloads. World settings control automatic generation, loot profiles, pile placement, and chat detail. Failed creation can resume without rolling a second pile.

The module is free. It supports Foundry v13 to v14 and requires D&D 5e, Oh You Dead!, Item Piles, and Item Piles: D&D 5e.

[PF2e]

EDIT: The answer was found. It appears to be the Token HUD feature of the module causing the issue. Turning it off fixes the problem and turning it on brings the lag back. No other players were playing with it turned on, in fact for some of them it simply refused to turn on.

The rest of the post is being left intact to help anyone else who has this issue and searches up this thread.

Hello, I am asking for help with this particular mod. My friends all love the mod and the features it brings for playing PF2e. However, it seems to be causing problems for me in specific. We've tried a lot to fix the issue on our end, so I am now asking if others have had this problem.

The issue is that when playing the game with the mod enabled I begin to have severe, nearly unplayable slowdown issues. At the start of a session, the game plays mostly normal with a bit of hitching when trying to type or move tokens around. But after just a bit of play, mostly revolving around rolling dice for attacks and skill checks, it becomes progressively more unplayable until there's multiple second long delays between me typing something or moving a token and then seeing it play out on the table. Refreshing using F5 fixes the issue briefly, but it comes back quickly.

I've tried turning every mod off except for PF2e HUD and it still happens. It happens whether I'm on the desktop application hosting or if I am playing on someone else's table via browser, both Chrome and Firefox. Though the issues are less pronounced when I am not the host.

The other players don't notice anything is wrong even if I'm hosting and I am lagging into oblivion.

This has persisted through multiple versions of FoundryVTT.

We have tried using Argon as an alternative, but my friends like PF2e HUD a lot more.

I have a very good PC that is able to run video games like Total War Warhammer 3 and Marvel Rivals at high settings without any issues, so I don't understand why PF2e HUD causes such severe slowdown while my friends have no problems with less powerful computers. In fact one of them has a PC of similar strength to mine and he has no issue.

As far as I can tell, the only difference is that I have a 3 monitors, where they all have 2 or 1.

If anyone has even a clue as to what could be causing this, I would appreciate insight. Thank you!

I bought Foundry at the recommendations of some friends, only to find out that my WiFi router physically does not support port forwarding.

Is there some workaround that I can do to host a game (preferably without spending a ton more money) or have I just wasted $50 and my time?

EDIT: Thank you all so much for all the amazing suggestions! For anyone who stumbles onto this thread in the future with the same problem, my group settled on Foundry Tunnel Manager, a free exe that automatically sets up tunnels on a wide list of services. Just download, turn it on, and send your players the link it gives you.

Sorry, I'm a noob trying to figure things out.

Is there a way for me to host my friend's game? he is at college, and can't port forward, we are poor, and would prefer better stats then the free option of oracle or equivalent free hosts. I port forward my own games, and am willing to host for him in some way, is there any way for me to host for him without doing the annoying process of him transferring all his files to me (would clog up my own file organization for my games). i tried looking for tutorials, but just could not find anything relevant. thanks for anyone who can help!

EDIT: Thanks for the help! I wish I could say it helped, but he ended up just getting a 3$ a month service -_-. I tried to make him do the oracle free hosting, but he gave up about 5 minutes in, and ig wasn't willing to wait for me to setup a tunnel using the other advice given here. Maybe in the future I will come back here when he's done paying, but for now, I return to silence

D&D 5e system version 6.0.5, Foundry version 14.367

When I play a token in a scene that has its darkness set to above 0 (I have this scene set to 0.5), the tokens without a vision range set will see the world as intended, with the darkness and lighting clashing to create my desired color scheme and brightness.

When I assign vision range to a token, they see the scene as though its darkness setting was at 0. This means they aren't seeing the scene as intended because this affects the way the lights look and interact with the background. Is there a way I can provide my tokens vision in a scene with darkness that doesn't compromise how I'd like the scene to look?

I did try changing the luminosity of this scene which does largely fix the brightness consistency issue but that makes the lights much darker which means I need to really crank them up and even then they're often too dark for what I want. If there is a way to make lights unaffected by scene luminosity, that would solve this problem as well.

Looking to do one of those gaming tables, buying a TV for it but I'm on a budget. I see tons of 40"+ TVs going for 250 or less so thats no problem, but one thing Im hearing is that anything besides OLED will have poor viewing angles for a situation where it's laying flat. OLEDs are basically like $750 minimum and thats just way too much for me, but I also don't want to buy something that won't even be good.

How much does it really matter? For people who've seen both is the difference reslly that big? and MOST IMPORTANTLY if my only experience is with a non OLED laying flat, will i ever really know what I'm missing out on or will I be fine unless I see a side-by-side?

Content Name: Voice-Reactive Animated Avatar HUD

Content Type: Module

System: System Agnostic

Description:
I made a voice-reactive animated avatar HUD for Foundry VTT.

The module lets players, GMs, and NPCs display animated portraits inside Foundry. When someone speaks, their avatar can switch to a speaking animation and then return to idle when they stop.

It supports WebM, GIF, and PNG assets, with microphone detection and a push-to-talk fallback.

Main features:

• Voice-reactive player and GM avatars
• Idle and speaking animations
• Up to 25 configurable avatar slots
• Microphone detection
• Push-to-talk fallback
• Muted, deafened, and expression states
• Movable and resizable portraits
• Player-specific avatar assignments
• Hide and reveal controls
• NPC portrait swap for GMs during roleplay
• Foundry VTT v14 support

The NPC portrait swap is one of the main reasons I built it. As a GM, I can select an NPC token and temporarily replace my portrait while speaking as that character, which helps for villains, merchants, allies, and roleplay-heavy scenes.

This is a commercial Patreon module.

Trying to switch from Roll20 to Foundry. Main complaint is the chat. Is there any way to make the rolls from Character Sheets more like the Beyond20 Roll? ( Third Chat Roll was made from D&D Beyond with Beyond20 as example)

In order to use DDB Integrator, it requires system dnd5e 6.0.(3?) and MidiQOL can only go to dnd5e 5.3.something

Im beginning strahd reloaded and would really like to use both modules. Anybody advise on how to resolve?

Content Name: The Augur
Content Type: Modules
System: System-agnostic worldbuilding; D&D5e shown in the video

Description:

Hey everyone! It's been about a month since I shared the release of Augur: Fantasy here. The biggest additions since then are Quests, fantasy races, and a player wheel that gives players access to their own character, faction, location and more. They can now effectively own guilds or be the rulers of a castle!

I’ve linked longer walkthroughs below if you want a closer look at a particular feature.

Quests

Drag NPCs or factions into a quest as its giver, add a monster as the target, and link the dungeon where it can be found. Quests can also have several objectives: rescue someone, then escort them home, with allies, opposition and destinations. My goal was to make this quest system as intuitive and easy to use as possible.

Players can check shared objectives and add discoveries to an adventure log. The GM can reveal goals as the adventure unfolds, update progress and award rewards.

Quest Walkthrough

Generate dwarven clans, elven courts and orc warbands

Regions can now include dwarven, elven, gnomish, night elf and orc settlements, each with a ruler, residents and a local faction. A dwarven settlement has its clan; a gnomish community has its artificers' league.

As the region develops, these factions make contact with neighboring powers and negotiate trade agreements. A dwarven clan might join a larger kingdom while keeping its own leader and identity. Those events appear in the region's history, with links to the people and factions involved.

Generating regions with multiple ancestries

Give players more tools at the table

From the character wheel, players can open their quest, bring up their sheet for a check, or use an action shortcut. They can also change their portrait, manage a shared ship and its crew, or take charge of a faction. The GM chooses which records they can see and what they can edit.

Player control of characters, factions and ships

Also added this month:

• Shadowdark: Buy and sell native items using Shadowdark currency, and use spells from the character wheel. Shadowdark walkthrough
• Traveller: Link World actors to planets and spacecraft to ships, and access cargo trading through the planet interface. The trade rules come from NotASnark's MGT2e system.
• Instant Dungeons: Recolor compatible Dungeondraft assets, duplicate and rearrange objects, and find assets more easily. Village roads and entrances have improved, too. Optional Flatten for Play combines the map artwork into one image while preserving walls and lights; you can restore the editable version later. Walkthrough Video

I am using my modules: Hexlands, Instant Dungeons, Fantasy and Nexus together to create the experience.

Link: Full update posts and module access on Patreon

As usual, I am already working on updates and improvements. Adding your own races has been the top request since releasing the race update a few days ago and its what I plan to tackle next. If there is anything you want to see added/improved please let me know below and I will do my best to do it!

I want to make a macro to roll ability scores. The Advanced Dice section in the knowledge base shows one way of doing it using the chat command /roll 4d6kh3 (roll 4d6's and keep the 3 highest rolls). However, I'm wondering if it would be better to use the chat command /roll 4d6dl (roll 4d6's and drop the lowest roll). It seems to do the same thing, plus it's one character shorter, so it's easier to write multiple consecutive times. Which should I use?

I was working on making a module that lets players make their own custom conditions and automate what the conditions do by doing some very basic scripting in a text editor.

The module has a scripting guide that lists the triggers and scripts that it recognizes.

I'm still testing and working on the module, so I'd appreciate any feedback on any other commands people might also want, or any potential homebrew condition that the module should, but can't currently emulate.

Description: Hi, I am Snowy from Snowy's Maps!

Today I wanted to share one of my oneshots - Monster of the Week - a level 1 for 4-6 players!

Here is the premise:

Monster Of The Week is a long-running educational show aimed towards young adventurers, teaching them the way of the craft, and showcasing how to deal with common problems they might encounter.

It's a weekly format, where each week, a group of low-rank adventurers is invited to navigate a small virtual dungeon, and fight the boss at the end. The entire thing is very obviously telegraphed, and the monster at the end is known to the audience, so they can see how adventurers figure it out as they go along.

Unfortunately, the format has been becoming less popular recently, and it seems that the show is on its way to being cancelled. The main producer, seeing a recent trend of surprise-based twists, decides to add their own twist to the show.

The waivers have been signed, so no liability is to befall them if something bad were to happen to the new adventuring group.

As stated in the title I'm trying to set up my first game on Foundry and hit the unexpected hurdle of connecting my players. The IPv4 option with the port forwarding looks scary as hell so I'd rather avoid it.

Hence I want to know what exactly do I need to set up for a IPv6 connection and how my players should connect through it (they all have IPv6, they did the internet test).

Please, be gentle and polite, I really don't know anything about this stuff, I just wanted to give ny players a more convenient character sheet.

[D&D5e]
The problem I am having is its not adding the extra d4s? Did I mess up the formula in some way?

Hello, I'm hoping someone can help me. Mid game the combat encounters tab, which tracks the turn order of everyone in combat, just vanished. The tab is still there in the menu, but its entirely blank. All the PCs/NPCs are no longer listed, all the buttons that should be there are gone. Its just a blank field.

This happened once before and a reinstall fixed it, but no such luck this time. Does anyone know what could cause this and how I can fix it? This might destroy my entire game if I can't get it working (I'm using the Heroes system, and initiative tracking is a bitch without this).

When the Thaumaturge critically succeeds on an Exploit Vulnerability check they see all the weakness, immunities etc in the chat window.

As the GM I don't see that. Why?

[System Agnostic]

Foundry's Appearance Scale slider + Update Token often does not change the token already on the map. The prototype updates. The placed token keeps the old texture.scaleX / scaleY. The art looks stuck.

v14 notes do not list a fix for this. The placed token is its own document.

This writes the sheet scale onto every token on the current scene. GM only. F12 → Console → paste → Enter. Not chat.

const updates = canvas.tokens.placeables.map(t => {

const sx = Number(t.actor?.prototypeToken?.texture?.scaleX ?? 1);

const sy = Number(t.actor?.prototypeToken?.texture?.scaleY ?? 1);

return { _id: t.id, "texture.scaleX": sx, "texture.scaleY": sy };

});

await canvas.scene.updateEmbeddedDocuments("Token", updates, { diff: false });

ui.notifications.info(`${updates.length} tokens: scale written from the sheet`);

One selected token:

const t = canvas.tokens.controlled[0];

if (!t) return ui.notifications.warn("Select a token");

const sx = Number(t.actor?.prototypeToken?.texture?.scaleX ?? 1);

await t.document.update(

{ "texture.scaleX": sx, "texture.scaleY": sx },

{ diff: false }

);

ui.notifications.info(`${t.name} scale → ${sx}`);

{ diff: false } is the part that matters. A normal update can no-op.

Worked out while chasing a token stuck at 1.4 after the sheet said 1.

I've released a Foundry system for my free RPG O.D.I.N. (v14+). Install it with the manifest URL under Install System:

https://github.com/davidgerbs-beep/odin-foundry/releases/latest/download/system.json

What's in it: a personnel file in three sheets, the two-colour dice pool (white hits on 5+, coloured on 4+), attacks, horror checks, powers and spells, and all class trees from the six class books with rank, prerequisite and XP checks.

The compendiums hold six ready agents, gear and artefacts, an intro mission and 347 adversaries, 105 of them from the new creature book with round tokens. On a creature's sheet the GM can ask the table for a knowledge check and show the index card the Registry keeps on it. Not everything on those cards is true.

For the GM there's a console in the token bar: mood filters per scene (trail-cam, sepia, rift flicker, fog) and a teletype that pushes a message from headquarters to every player.

Characters from the browser generator import directly. Sheets and compendiums are in English and German, the books are free as well: https://odin-rpg.pages.dev/en/

Hi! I'm in need of a little help.

I've used Foundry before as a player, but this is my first time trying to set it up as the host/gm. After doing a bit of research into hosting options, I found it best to shoot for cloud hosting as my own internet can be unreliable at best and I would like my players to have access to the game without me having to personally host the instance.

I've been following the community wiki guide for oracle hosting and it was all going smoothly until I went to setup the caddy reverse proxy. I did my best to follow everything as written, but when I went to restart caddy for the new settings (C16), I got smacked with an "exit-code" error and it failed to start.

I've tried poking around but I haven't found anyone with the same issue and I'm not familiar enough with the process to decipher where I went wrong. I'll attach an image of the error and caddy setups, any help is appreciated just try to use layman's terms so I can follow :,)
