Hi, I don't know if this is the right place for this, but I really need some help. I am not great at fantasy ground unity, but I got things figured out to work for my group. I went to run my game tonight. I did the update as I usually do. I did noticed that it seemed to be a big one, but I didn't realize how much had changed. I opened a map and everything was crazy. I usually run it without the lighting and all the fancy stuff. I just use mask and open up areas. It took me a bit to turn that stuff off, but then nobody could see each other. Eventually I found how to make a character always visible, but then I have to do that all the time. I was wasting my players time as I struggled to figure all this out. Some things it seems the map has to be enlarged, but now that covers up the text box area. I tried an encounter I hit NPCs visible and then everyone disappeared to every one else. It was a frustrating night that I had to just end early.

Can anyone help walk me through some of these changes and how I can get it to work the way it worked for me before?

Thanks!

Brian

There are links in the post here to wiki pages with details on the major updates. https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?68387-FG-Unity-Release-v4-1-0&p=599940&viewfull=1#post599940

I haven't used the new version yet myself. Do note, it is strongly suggest never to update right before game time. It's too prone for causing issues like this one. I always try to update right after my game session, never before.
