View Full Version : Question about Switching from Fantasy Grounds to Roll20 for games...

First, make no mistake, I'm ALL ABOUT Fantasy Grounds.

However, being involved with the Adventurers League online (alonlinetools.net), many DMs run their games on Roll20. I am not a Roll20 user. I do have an account, but have never played in a game there.

My question is, is there an easy (or difficult) way to move characters back and forth between FG and R20?

It would help to do that to maintain characters between games.

ThanX guys!

Roll20 has character sheets? Since when?

I don't know since when, but since at least August.

All roll20 offers really is character sheets, there's no automation beyond that. There's no way to convert from FG to roll20 though.

There is a lot of automation that can be done with Roll20, but the prerogative is on the end users. You have to create your own macros and API scripts, though you can find a lot of these through their community. I switched over from Roll20 to Fantasy Grounds in the summer, because of the official D&D 5e content and the ease of preparation.
