Hey All

I apologise in advance if anyone has had this issue before, I tried to google it but was unable to come up with a result that matched. Im using the 5e modules (PHB MM DMG MToF VGtM)

I have done the typical re-install, update, check drivers etc. and tried a suggestion to do with "parent Folders" but no luck so far.

So my issue is that every time i load into Fantasy Grounds and load up my campaign, all my images, stories and encounters are all shared with the players, even if I have un-shared them previously. I read somewhere that this may have something to do with linking content between entries, but I haven't done that with a number of the images and some of the story entries. Furthermore, it only happens with items i have created/imported, none of the 5e content I have purchased seems to have this issue.

Would love to hear if anyone else has had this issue and if there was a fix available. Thanks for all your help in advance also.

Its a glitch.
It shouldnt happen.
When you run this it will unshare everything so only do it if you see this problem again.

Damned, I am now having an issue that all official content is no longer shared even though it has been shared in the module section (with the green ticks)

What content are you sharing.
Only share player resources like PHB.

Unshare by dragging red cross on and then drag green cross back on.

Do you mean that when your players go into their module activation window the modules that you have green ticked are not available for them to load?

It may be necessary for your players to nuke their caches before joining if you had a lot shared with them before. (They can do this by clicking on the nuke button top right of the join screen)

Hey guys,

Sorry for reviving this issue but I had to move place shortly after this discussion and a number of my players are still having issues getting access to my game and still cant access the players PHB, XGtE and VgtM. Should I just start a new campaign and transfer over all the content in the hope it will rectify this?

I'd suggest you jump on the Discord channel and see if someone can explore this with you real-time.

I suspect it will be easiest to solve if you can start up your server and have someone connect and try various things. I don't think you want to wait until you need your players to connect etc :)

Can we have more information on what your issue is please. It seems to have moved from players can't access the PHB etc to my players can't connect to my game. So can we have a clear description of exactly what your problem is because not being able to connect and not seeing modules are miles apart in being able to diagnose the issue. And does your issue even have anything to do with the title of this thread?
