[Pendrake]

Somewhat panicking here - I have massively altered the Death house map for my campaign, something I did over 2 weeks. Saturday is game night, and my party is halfway through this map and excided to continue.

I have copied the campaign and did some testing: If I revert all changes, I can pull up the COS-Death House player map just fine... but I, of course, lose all my changes. Is there a way I can fix this?

I have: rechecked for updates. Unloaded and re-loaded the modules. Reverted changes (Undesirable since I lose all my changes, but will bring back the map).

I don't think so. The images in CoS were done using an obsolete method and the recent update moved all of them to the current/preferred method. Which means they are no longer in the location they used to be. See the Release Notes: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?75278-Release-Updates-for-September-27th-2022&p=663687&viewfull=1#post663687

What you might be able to do is to manually edit your campaign.xml (or perhaps the module specific file) file and change the references. I'm not sure exactly what changed, but you could do this:
1) create a new campaign, load CoS, edit one image like you did previously. Exit FG
2) compare the campaign.xml and the module specific files in the campaign folder to see how the image paths have changed from the old campaign to the new campaign.
3) copy the old campaign so you have a backup, alter the xml file(s) as needed to use the new image paths. test.

If you post the "DD Curse of Strahd.xml" file from your moduledb subfolder of your campaign folder, I can make the adjustment for you.

Otherwise, you can edit the module change file yourself to update it. If you do this, make sure to make a copy before you edit.
(To update, change any reference of "Map - Death House.jpg@DD Curse of Strahd" to "images/Map - Death House.jpg@DD Curse of Strahd".)

Perfect! I cracked open the xml and did a Find/Replace, and: Issue Solved! Thank you so much!

[Chadarius]

For Curse of Strahd I did the following to fix the paths. First I made a backup of "%appdata%\SmiteWorks\Fantasy Grounds\campaigns\Strahd\moduledb\DD Curse of Strahd.xml".

I opened "%appdata%\SmiteWorks\Fantasy Grounds\campaigns\Strahd\moduledb\DD Curse of Strahd.xml" with Notepad++

Then I search and replaced

"<bitmap>Map -" with "<bitmap>images/Map -"

and

"tokens/campaign/" to "tokens/"

Those fixed all the maps and missing tokens from NPCs that I also noticed in my combat tracker.

Basically, ever single map I had ever shared had a bad path. Reverting didn't seem like a very good solution to me. It would have broken all of the links I had made in the game. This was a pretty inconvenient way to break/update things. Searching and replacing text is a pretty easy thing to do for computers. Perhaps a utility or instructions on updating would have been useful?

I am unclear about the token ones. I only have three in a campaign that has been ongoing since 1/2022.

Should these be changed to remove "campaign"?

[Moon Wizard]

What are the values of those in the moduledb file?

For tokens, "tokens/campaign/B.png" -> "tokens/B.png".

If you post the moduledb file, I can do a quick look and post result.

Can you post the file Tomb of Annihilation.xml file that you can find inside the campaign name directory in the moduledb sub folder (Click the folder icon on the top left of the start screen to get to the FG data directory; then open campaigns and then the folder with the campaign name on it).

[Eroc999]

thank Zacchaeus. how do i upload the xml file? it is quite large, word count is over 62,000.

[Eroc999]

ah never mind, i figured it out!

[Zacchaeus]

Replace that file with the one attached here. Please make sure that you make a copy of your campaign first and put it in a safe place before doing so - juts in case something goes wrong.

[Eroc999]

amazing! that worked. thank you so much. i was ready to soldier on without a fix. what was the problem? was there something i caused? i'd like to know how to avoid it for the future.

The module images were updated from .jpg to .webp some time ago. Whilst that has no impact if you haven't made any edits to a map image; if you have made any edits then FG will not be able to find the base map. The file that you attached above contains all of the edits that you have made and in that file FG is looking for the old name of the file (E.g. Map - Chult.jpg). Since the map is now called Chult.webp FG can no longer find the correct image. So all I did was change the filenames in that file so that all instances of .jpg was changed to .wepb. So it was nothing you did; it was something I did when I changed the image names.

[Eroc999]

very good to know. that would have been an easy search and replace had i known. thanks again!
