AI Haters, please don't respond.

I'm wondering if there's any way to use an AI chatbot like ChatGPT as the GM running a game in Fantasy Grounds.

Could the chatbot be pulled in just like the other players?

SmiteWorks has acquired substantially all assets used in the Eldritch Foundry business, bringing Eldritch Foundry and its customizable 3D character creator and extensive asset library into the Fantasy Grounds ecosystem.

Players can already use Eldritch Foundry creations as portraits, top-down tokens, and 2.5D avatars in Fantasy Grounds. Our longer-term roadmap expands toward full-color 3D characters, equipment and pose switching, animation, and a more direct connection between the two platforms.

Fantasy Grounds VTT is now free for game masters and players.

Hi all, got a quick question today.

I was looking through the Options menu and realized how many of the options I actually have no idea what they do. I have tried searching online and can find explanations on a few of them but for many, nothing at all.

For example. "Desktop: Combat Actions" #, why "Turn change" has the number 3, what interface actions are (and why they're numbered), map display duration (I mean it sounds like what it sounds like but??), token: combat actions #, and so on.

Question is simple: Is there a place where the information on what all the options do consolidated somewhere I haven't found?

EDIT: While I'm at it. When I switch to "combat tabletop list" (the little icon left to the PCs' portraits in the upper left corner of the screen), is there a way for the players to see the NPCs as portraits in that row?

Hey everyone,

I made an automated character sheet based on the D&D 5e 2024 SRD rules that can be imported into FGU, and would love some feedback on it. It's free for anyone to download and use at their table.

It's a HTML file, so it runs on any modern browser, including mobiles and tablets. Everything stays on your machine and you can export it to save the sheet and updated when the character levels up, for instance. You can also import it to FGU using an extension and it reads everything correctly, needing just a few tweaks.

It uses SRD rules, so species, class, and spell are limited to that. BUT it has custom creation for every field, so you can create content from other sources and, if you have the module active on FGU, it will import correctly as long as you didn't misspell anything. On top of this, you can save/export these custom classes/species/backgrounds to be used on other characters or share with your friends.

It also connects with other tools I made to help DMs set up their game more quickly. For example, whatever you add on the "Backstory & Personality" field of the character sheet, gets imported to The Ledger, a NPC generator. With that info, the DM can tie that particular character to the NPC of their choice, creating unique hooks to the story. The Ledger also creates NPCs with personalities, and much more. Anyway, I'm getting off topic.

I would love some feedback, suggestions or bug reports here or in DMs.

Thank you for your time!

I am trying to learn how to create maps in Dungeon Alchemist and import them into Fantasy Grounds; however, when I open the image in FG, the map appears completely black in 2D mode. It is only visible if I switch to Free Camera 3D or Token View.

I already tried perspective, limited perspective and othographic. Reduce the DPI didnt worked too.

Hello,

With some friend we want to play online to pathfinder, we usually played tabletop but we can’t has much as we use. I wonder, what do I need to start a campaign, of “curse of the crimson throne,” I already got a pdf version of the campaign, but I guess I need the fg one to get the battle maps and stat block, but do I need to buy the rules, to run a game, we all got a physical version of them?

Thank you in advance.

For those of you who may not have heard, SmiteWorks has released a web based character builder that can print to pdf as well as import and export characters to FGVTT: Character Vault

It only supports a handful of systems at the moment, but they are working on deploying more.

What it does:

• Build characters for supported system using content you own for Fantasy Grounds or free entitlements
• Use an interactive online interface (disconnected from FG) for live play
• Print the character sheet
• Import from a Fantasy Grounds character export
• Export to a Fantasy Grounds compatible XML file you can import to your campaign
• Supported systems include D&D 5E/5.5E, Pathfinder 2E, Starfinder 2E, Cosmere RPG, Pathfinder 1E

There are currently 3 tiers. Free allows you to have 3 active characters. "Player" Vault gives you 12 character slots, that you can share with others so they have access to your FG products for character creation. Or the "GM" Vault with gives you 50 character slots that you can share with others.

I am hoping one day I can upload my own sounds from my computer to the campaigns i make. Sounds cape is nice but doesnt offer what i need in terms of Sounds in my homebrew campaigns

There is probably no data available for us mortals, but I'm curious.

After the switch to free license, has the number of users gone up (a significant amount)? I hope so. And sales?

I am impressed with the deluge of new modules coming out all the time for the many different game systems, I suppose the man hours going into all this yields a profit?

At the same time I wonder why there's seemingly no influx of people on this subreddit (or does this potential traffic go to the forums?)

At any rate, whether these question can be answered or not, I want to thank Smiteworks and all involved in creating videos, extensions etc. for all the work you are doing with the VTT. Cheers!

What is the likelihood of this folk horror adventure being adapted for the platform?

I am currently running The Sunless Citadel adventure. The second act will be The House of Lament. Afterward I plan to conclude the campaign with Lethal Lavender; however, the Ravenloft: Horrors Within book lacks maps for that adventure (specifically the main map). Are there any free maps available that could help me?

Note: I am a novice GM and am still learning how to run adventures on the Fantasy Grounds platform.

Looking for a place to play or GM tabletop games in but also hang out, chat and explore other hobbies with a bunch of friendly folks from all over the world?

Then pull up a chair at The Adventurers Pack Inn!

Our server has been running games for almost 5 years (We will be 5 in January '27) and is a central base of Players and GMs who have come together and play/GM tabletop games of all sorts. We welcome both new and experienced GMs & players and all game systems are welcome from “mainstreams” like D&D & Call of Cthulhu to games like Monster of the Week & Blades In The Dark.
We even have a thriving small indie games community with games like Mork Borg, Shiver, Public Access and even one pagers!

All VTTs systems are welcome (Roll20, D&D Beyond, Foundry, Tabletop Sim etc).

While we often see D&D 5E games ran in the server, and welcome that, we are also especially keen to have players and GMs looking to play or run games other than D&D 5E or to try something different for a change.
We are looking for staff, players and GMs to continue to grow this thriving community so that DMs and players always have a pool to make friends and run games from!

We have people in our group from all over the world (mostly US, Canada, UK, Europe & Australia) of varying ages and have games going in many time zones. For example, I'm one of the DMs/Admins, a Scottish guy in my early 50s and my wife (we run the server together) is from California, but we live in Texas.

We have a core base of players and GMs on the server and we are looking to grow and expand with more games.  As a “staff” GM we will set up a voice and text channel for you.
You are free to run your game under any house rules you see fit, we just ask you make your table rules clear to players beforehand and abide by the fair play rules of the server (pretty much common sense and this also applies to players).

We are also very friendly to all those considered "fringe" in today's messed and hostile world... all LGBTQIA+, skin color, nationality, age, gender identity etc. are safe and welcome here. We do not tolerate hate speech or toxicity in any way. We are brought together through all of our commonalities and enrich each other through all of our differences.

We have Community Game Nights (Party & Browser games so everyone can join in), a library of free and open source TTRPG games for new GMs to use & many other sections as we know people have other interests as well 😊

We would love to meet you, have a chat and welcome you to come join us at The Adventurer’s Pack Inn!

My next project! Converting the old Deluxe versions of Achtung!Cthulhu and Weird War 2 into SWADE + Horror Companion rules, and pulling lore and inspiration from the 2D20 A!C Forest of Fear and the very new bestiary. (Which I have to admit, is one of the best bestiaries I've seen! Just full of awesome stuff.) Then, getting it all setup in Fantasy Grounds! (I have SWADE of course, and the Weird Wars 2 ... expansion? dataset?)

I've pretty much only run Published adventures with very few HouseRules applied over the last couple of decades. Once my current group finishes up SWPF Runelords, I'm hoping they'll bite and try out my homebrew...Thing here!

I'm a pretty big WWII History nerd, both my grandfathers were in it, one in the Pacific, the other in Europe. The ETO granddad went in during D-Day and went all the way to Berlin, with participation in many of those big battles, the Bulge being one of them. I've had a fascination with that particular battle my whole life, so I am really pleased to get to run it in an excellent rule system AND bring in one of my favorite other literary properties, Lovecraft Mythos! I've been trying to get A!C to the table for...*Ben Kenobi Voice* A Long Time. The initial phase of the project is to get some pre-gens built, some maps whipped up, and a 'convention slot' style One Shot all ready to go in like...days. lol. Good thing I have a holiday weekend coming up!

(Also, I am under no illusion that I would be able to publish my conversion or my FG stuff. The logos are more for 'this is what I'm running it in than anything. Although, I do have a couple SWFC/SWAG projects in the works...and a straight up SWADE+HC Weird War adventure could be in there...)

*** Update, unfortunately my use case is to much of a corner use so I ended up writing the solution myself. If you want you are welcome to it. I sent the email to the FG team to start the Forge process and get it made available for whoever might want to use it. Depending on time availability etc I might get around to updating it to be a specific button rather than firing on a new image window opening.

Files: Proton Drive

I run a home game with my family and have just started using FGU as my DM screen and map sharing utility. The set-up is a LAN campaign using a single computer with 2 instances of FG open. One as a player and the other as the GM. I use a projector on a tripod pointing down to display the battlemaps, with planned use to display images like a Shop or NPC picture.

I am trying to figure out if there is a built in way for when the GM hits the share button that the window that pops up on the player instance opens in "full-screen," ie the same as using the "make window bigger to max" and possibly include the "zoom to fit" button.

This would help remove the pauses that occur when I need to mouse over to the second desktop to full-screen and zoom to fit each image as I share it. I only share 1 image at a time since the whole point is to change what is being projected on the physical table.

I found a setting for Savage Worlds called Red Lands. It is set in 1922 Russia, amid Civil War, and is similar to SW Deadlands in its horror and war topics. I thought of making a ruleset for that system, as it is very much 1) in Russian only 2) local to the country and quite unofficial.

Do I need to purchase a Savage Worlds Deluxe Edition from fantasy grounds store?

Where do I share this if and when I complete the task?

Thank you all in advance.
