hi all

I'm looking to getting into rollplaying, used to play as a kid and have some good memory's.
this was a long time ago! guess I'm looking for someone to maybe talk me through character creation
and point me in right direction to get a game.

cheers

p.s I'm from the uk timezone and can be free any nights

Hi humps, and Welcome! to te Community,

If you haven't done so already, let me encourage you to take a look at some of the great Tutorial Videos available on the Fantasy Grounds Wiki (and on YouTube). Damn's are good, as are Xorn's, and people seem to like mine as well (mine are also available from the links in my sig, below).

Start with the ones on the CoreRPG, because the CoreRPG forms the foundation of just about all the RPGs we play with Fantasy Grounds - so by learning how to use FG with the CoreRPG you'll learn about 80% of what you'll need to know to play any RPG with Fantasy Grounds. Once you've gone through the CoreRPG Videos you can then go on to Videos about your chosen RPG.

When you get familiar with the basic Fantasy Grounds product the next step is to check out some of the Extensions (Plug-Ins) for FG, such as the DOE: Sound, DOE: Locations, DOE: Weather and DOE: Organisations Extensions (to name a but a few).

And keep on asking questions - we're a pretty friendly lot here, and we love answering questions.

Cheers

Hi, humps.

The first place to start would be the user guide (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/filelibrary/FantasyGroundsUserManual.pdf); then there's the wiki (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/User_Guides) which has articles on character creation (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/5E_Character_Sheet) and effects (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/5E_Effects). Then there's a number of videos (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/Videos) which you may find useful. If you are looking to join a group then here's the forum (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?40-LFG-Looking-for-Group) to post in. And if you want to chat about stuff then Discord (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?36377-New-Official-Discord-Server) is where it's at.
