Purchased the ultimate pack, created game and NO tokens are available. Wiki says

"GM Tokens: GM tokens available for all campaigns. Any tokens stored in the FG data directory under the tokens/host subfolder. Accessible via the GM button in the Token Box window. GM tokens are only displayed in the GM token box"

There are no tokens stores in the FG data directory under tokens/host subfolder

same with maps and anything else. So what easy thing am I making way too complicated?

Welcome to the forums and FG Community, did you enter your FG Forums login info or steam info into the settings?

Hola nckvssy if bought on Steam make sure Steam client is running and FG is ticked to Check Steam for DLC.
If bought here make sure your FG forum login is entered.
You may end up buying stuff from both over time - I have - but try to avoid that :)


Click on Tokens -> Modules and Activate the Token module. These will appear in a bag(s) in Tokens.
For Maps goto Library -> Modules and Activate the FG Battlemaps. These will appear in a new tab in Images.

As damned has mentioned you need to activate the various modules (tokens, maps, rules, scenarios, etc.) that you want to have available within a campaign. FG gives you the ability to control what is open from campaign to campaign.

If you don't see the modules to activate, then please shoot a note over to [email protected] with screenshots (Alt+PrintScreen) of your FG launch screen and FG Settings screen. If the launch screen says "FREE" next to the version #, then your license key is not entered properly.

thanks for all your help but I am just going to refund. Not worth the trouble.

You're going to miss out on a great VTT product (and a great community). Seems a shame when all you have to do is ask for help - or spend a little bit of time watching the tutorial videos.

Here's some quick screens to show how to get to some of the provided tokens.

Load up a campaign and press the tokens button (#1). This opens the "Tokens" window (#2).

Click on the "Modules" button (#3) which opens the "Token Module Activation" window (#4). This is where all of your modules that contain tokens can be activated. The top 4 you can see in this screenshot come with Fantasy Grounds (plus some more if you scroll down the window).

Double-click on the module graphic to open the book (open book means activated, closed mean deactivated) #5.

This then adds a new bag to the tokens window as shown below:

Double-click on the token bag to open it and view the tokens:
