5e Bug Reports (2023)

[Zacchaeus]

Time to retire the old thread again. Everything in that one has been noted or already fixed.

Please report bugs that you find in any 5e modules (adventures, reference modules etc) in this thread. It doesn't matter if you are seeing the bug in Classic or Unity report them in this thread. Report bugs which are specific to the Unity client or to the 5e ruleset here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...-Healing-Unity (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?107-The-House-of-Healing-Unity)

When reporting give as much information as possible as to where to find the issue.

Typos: Bardic Inspiration text includes "The creature can wait until after it rolls the d20,before deciding to use the Bardic Inspiration die but must must decide before the GM says whether the roll succeeds or fails." I believe that's in the 5E SRD Data module. First bold section should have a space after the comma. 2nd has doubled word.

Hey guys, I think there's some problems with Curse of Strahd. The images from the Martikov Family and Bray Martikov portrait just vanished. Here's a print:55660

Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden
Reference Manual > Appendix C > Goliaths - the image is missing and clicking on it creates an empty New Image.

[superteddy57]

An update will be coming on the next weekly update to address Icewind Dale's issues.

[Ecks]

Noticed that for Goliath player characters built using the new Goliath from MotM, the 5E ruleset does not automatically update the encumbrance/carrying capacity values for maximum and lift/push/drag. This works for Goliaths created from older sources.

Looks like this is because the Powerful Build ability from the older Goliath stats has been changed to Little Giant in the latest version from MotM, and the 5E ruleset is hardcoded to look for Powerful Build.

[Moon Wizard]

I'll include that in the next ruleset update. Thanks for the sleuthing.

Monster Manual, Orc Eye of Gruumsh - is missing its cantrips: guidance, resistance, thaumaturgy

[Zacchaeus]

Monster Manual, Orc Eye of Gruumsh - is missing its cantrips: guidance, resistance, thaumaturgy

So it is - due to the hyphen in 'at-will'. I'll cue that up for fixing (also how come no one noticed this for seven years :) )

[LordEntrails]

So it is - due to the hyphen in 'at-will'. I'll cue that up for fixing (also how come no one noticed this for seven years :) )
Cuz they die before they run out of better spells to use?

[Griogre]

Probably because those cantrips are not impactful. I only found them because I knew some of the 3rd party clerical casters have missing cantrips so I was doing a mass search to try to find them. Interestingly, the Eye of Grumash did populate the combat tracker with cantrips and rest of the spells if you deleted all the spell data, which didn't include cantrips - so the hyphen doesn't mess up the combat tracker parse if nothing was there.

[Zacchaeus]

Interesting.

[ColoradoGM]

The "Disarm" feat has the text for the "Braced Reception" feat instead of the proper Disarm text.

[Zacchaeus]

I'll let the developer know. thanks.

[BobM]

We (Aulderyn and Bob M) believe we have found problems with pregen character(s) defined within the Dragons of Stormwreck Isle module. Attached Word document has the details.

[Zacchaeus]

The pregenerated characters supplied with Dragons of Stormwreck Isle are as described in the book including the traits that they get at level 2 and level 3. So in order to use them as intended (that is as they are written in the book) then you should only use the one provided in the module. In other words don't have any other books open and just drag in the Paladin from the players module of Dragons of Stormwreck Isle. (As you say don't use the Character Wizard - it has not been coded as far as I know for Dragons of Stormwreck Isle).

The Paladin as described in DoSI does not conform as far as I can see to any particular specialization. They get Divine Sense and Lay on Hands at level one, Divine Smite, Fighting Style (protection) and Spellcasting at level two. There's no archetype choice at level 3; you get Sacred Weapon and Turn the Unholy as their Channel Divinities.

In short if you use the DOSI pregens then level them up using only the DOSI characters. If you want a Paladin as described in the Player's Handbook along with choices of archetype from other books then create a character yourself from scratch.

[BobM]

I understand what you're saying. Thanks.

With the limitations / simplifications you've described, it looks like the CW does handle level-up for these characters, at least the Paladin, fairly well. It's certainly better than having a new player (this is a starter set after all) track down and drag/drop each and every feature and action.

The only item missed by the CW is Divine Health, which is the first feature given to the Paladin at 3rd level according to the (printed) character sheet.

[Zacchaeus]

Ah, ok. That's because I've missed divine health from the list of features. I'll cue that up for fixing.

Also you only need to drag in the paladin class from the class menu and all of the features will get added to the abilities tab. You don't need to drag in anything else.

[Griogre]

Monster Manual, Flame Skull, Typo "Cantrip" s/b "Cantrips"

This monster was the other one where I couldn't delete the spells, drop it on the combat tracker and have its single Cantrip, mage hand, parse out. I finally realized its because the Spellcasting trait says "Cantrip (at will): mage hand" instead of "Cantrips (at will): mage hand". The parser wants plural not singular even it it is just one cantrip. :p

That one got to me, I knew it had to be a typo or extra character but I just couldn't see it for a while, LOL. Now it's all yours.

[Zacchaeus]

Right, thanks. I'll add it to the cue.

[Macabreus]

This is less of a support question and more of a suggestion - In Dragons of Stormwreck Isle, the module has the NPC Runara's token as a picture of a bronze dragon. This would actually give away something important to stay unknown for any first time players. It would ruin the big reveal if a dm doesn't catch it. Its not supposed to come out until later in the adventure that she is in fact a dragon. She greets the party as a humanoid in dragons rest. Just ran this about a month ago and realized in time to change it.

[Zacchaeus]

The first encounter is there more for convenience rather than anything else; it's not a combat encounter and there's no need to add the encounter to the Combat tracker. So the PCs aren't going to see her token at that point. Having said that I can change the token in that encounter just in case anyone actually places the NPCs on the combat tracker. Unfortunately no artwork was provided for this NPC so it'll have to be a letter token - which won't be all that nice when all the others do have non letter tokens.

Can you use one of the SmiteWorks licensed tokens? I know that's not something normally done, but maybe its allowed?

[Zacchaeus]

The token would be the usual WOtC letter token. Can't use anything else in a WotC product if there's no specific artwork from which to make a token.

Story 02.19.05 Knights of the Black Sword: There is an extraneous line break in the Cult Behavior section - "That time <new line> comes when..."
Reference Manual > Chapter 1 > Black Swords > Knights of the Black Sword: There is an extraneous line break in the Cult Behavior section - "That time <new line> comes when..."
Images > Bryn Shander Map: There is a missing pin for The Northlook location.
Quests: The Conversion Notes state that there are quests that can be shared with the players. However, all of the entries under the Quests sidebar are written from a GM perspective and many include information that shouldn't be shared with players. Just thought I'd mention it since as written most of them probably shouldn't be shared with players.

[Zacchaeus]

I'll alert the developer, thank you for the report.

Kobold Press, Tome of Beasts, Boreas, Innate Spellcasting

The first "At will" spell is "create water". There is no "create water" spell in 5E, probably it should be "create food and water".

Thanks, I'll alert the developer.

Ruins of Symbaroum - Free League Press ($90 total for the three modules)

I'm just setting up a campaign and I've noticed a bunch of major bugs:

Corruption Threshold not calculating correctly for Mystics:
For all other classes, the CT should be ([prof bonus x2] + chr modifier.
It seems that it is using this for mystics, whic should use the following:
(prof bonus + spell casting ability modifier) x2

It is also not adding +1 to the threshold for the Student of Magic feature from the Mage's Assistant background.

A short term solution is to allow the threshold to be editable (currently it is not, there is no magnifying glass beside it). But since CT is a major feature of Ruins of Symbaroum magic system, it is something quite broken in this product.


Character creation wizard:

There quite a few items broken or missing from this. (this list is not exhaustive, these are just what I've encountered so far)

1. The Witch Subclass prompts for a specialization (should offer Red, Green or White path), it just lists the subclasses again. Even choosing one doesn't satisfiy the creation wizard and gives a warning mark.

2. Backgrounds do not populate the Inventory screen

3. Only core D&D spells are listed and the amount (6 cantrips and 2 1st level spells) is not correct


Goblin origin - speed:

Listed speed for goblin is 20 in the book, but it adds 30 speed to the character sheet when this origin is selected. (this is a minor one since it can be edited directly


I will keep my eyes open for other bugs. Please prioritise the corruption threshold as it is very important to the game

[Zacchaeus]

Thanks for the reports. I'll alert the developers.

It is unlikely that you'll be able to create characters using the character wizard. I'm not familiar with this book, but generally anything which strays too far from the official WotC wording and way of doing things is going to fall foul of the Wizard. The same problem happened with Advanced 5e and we took the decision to remove the button for the character wizard with that one so that it avoided confusion. I'll mention this to the developers as well.

I'd suggest that you only use drag and drop for character creation. However if the problems you mention still exist with drag and drop then let me know and I'll pass this on.

[bennis1980]

I've built the characters using drag and drop. They are fine for the most part (apart from the other points above). I actually tried fixing them by using the wizard, but just discovered other issues

[bennis1980]

I also just need to make one more post so I have a clean 444 post total on this forum lol

[Zacchaeus]

So even with drag and drop you still see the errors that you posted above?

Yes, in fact I started with drag and drop, tried the wizard after

Kobold Press, Creature Catalog, Vampire Patrician, Actions

The text for "Release the Hounds!" is included at the end of the "Bone-Chilling Gaze" action and should be a separate action.

I have noticed that action names that end with an exclamation point are not parsed correctly by the npc importer - you have to add a period after the exclamation point to import them correctly. Don't know if that was part of the problem.

[Zacchaeus]

Thanks I'll alert the developers.

Beastheart and Monstrous Companions:
I think the Reference Manual is missing the "Quick Build" section and part of the "Multiclassing and the Beastheart" section (the boxed text about Multiclassing Options) that is found in the PDF version (page 26).

[mdrichey]

Monsters of the Multiverse goliaths no longer calculate carrying capacity correctly. This is because MotM goliaths no longer have the Powerful Build trait; rather they have the Little Giant trait. Can the Little Giant trait be set up to work the same way as Powerful Build?

ETA: Looks like this is already being addressed (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?76223-5e-Bug-Reports-(2023)&p=673554&viewfull=1#post673554).

Definitely true, but I did place the encounter so my new players could visualize how many were there and they could mill about. Since this is a starter set, most newer players to roleplaying struggle with the theatre of the mind aspect at first. I think the other two humanoids are just letter tokens as well so that should be ok. Thank you!

[Solo4114]

Caught some errors in damage immunities coding for some entries in Monsters of the Multiverse. It looks like most of the demon lords (Fraz Urb'Luu, Demogorgon, Juiblex, etc.) have damage immunities that are worded incorrectly, and ends up making them immune to both magical and non-magical bludgeoning, slashing, and piercing damage.

Their immunity entry for their damage block reads:

"bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing that is nonmagical"

But the text should read:

"bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacks." (without italics)

The current, incorrect wording just treats them as immune to all B/S/P damage, even when the damage type also has the magic property. Seems to be true of all the demon lords, but does not appear to be true of the devils or most other creatures.

[Zacchaeus]

Thanks, I'll make sure the developer gets to know.

[mdrichey]

Monsters of the Multiverse githyanki gish has a couple issues.
1. Type is "Humanoid (Gith" and alignment is "Wizard), Any Alignment"
2. nondetection spell has the following code which is causing problems.

Rime of the Frostmaiden:

Story 02.25.07 Climbing Kelvin's Cairn: Missing links to Image: Kelvin's Cairn GM Map and Kelvin's Cairn Player Map (the maps that show the mountain). These are linked in the Reference Manual, just not the story entry.
NPC: Sephek Kaltro: Sephek's "Cold Regeneration" ability doesn't generate the appropriate REGEN effect on the CT. This seems to be because the ability is called "Cold Regeneration". If changed to simply "Regeneration" it works as expected. (This one is probably a 5e ruleset thing).

[Zacchaeus]

Thanks, I'll pass that on to the developer.

PHB Deluxe description for "Martial Adept" feat seems to be pre-2021-errata.


If you already have superiority dice, you gain one more; otherwise, you have one superiority die, which is a d6.
This phrasing shows up both for the Feat record and the Reference text.


Per https://media.wizards.com/2021/dnd/downloads/PH-Errata.pdf

Martial Adept (p. 168). The first sentence of the second benefit has been changed to “You gain one superiority die, which is a d6 (this die is added to any superiority dice you have from another source).”

[Zacchaeus]

So I see; I'll add that to my list for fixing. Thanks for the report.

In Rime of the Frostmaiden:


Story: 02.25.07.06.01 F1. Chasm: At the end of the entry there is "Object: Ice Sheet" with no link - I suspect this is supposed to be a link to the NPC/Hazard named Ice Sheet.
Reference Manual > Chapter 1 > Mountain Climb > Frozen Cave:

In F1. Chasm, there should be a line break after "Characters can walk across this ice to avoid area F2 and go directly to Area F3." (split section into 2 paragraphs).
At the end of F1. Chasm there should probably be a link to the Ice Sheet NPC object.

[Ecks]

Rime of the Frostmaiden:

Story: 02.19.00 Caer-Dineval: There should be a link on this page to Image: Keep on a Hill, probably around the Black Swords section somewhere. On another note, the name of the image "Keep on a Hill" made it difficult to find during the session. "Caer-Dineval Keep" would make it a lot easier to find when searching for it in the Images list.
Quest: Black Swords - in the bullet list there is an extra asterisk after each bullet point.
Story 02.18.01 Bryn Shander in a Nutshell: The Heraldry section is entirely missing.
Story: "<TOWN> in a Nutshell": All ten entries (02.17.01, 02.18.01, ... 02.26.01) should have a link to the corresponding heraldry image.

Tasha's Cauldron of Everything:

Class > Wizard > Spellcasting Feature - there is an extraneous line break in the Learning Spells of 1st Level and Higher section

In Rime of the Frostmaiden:

Reference Manual > Ch 1 > Town Hall Capers > Easthaven Town Hall: The image link for the player map is broken and opens a new image. Likely this should be replaced with 4 links to the player maps for each floor and dungeon.
Reference Manual > Ch 1 > The Unseen > Approaching the Outpost: Suggestion: the "Roleplaying the Duergar" sidebar section breaks up a paragraph that should be together. Suggestion is to move the boxed text to the end of this page so the paragraph isn't broken. This is how it appears in the DnDBeyond version as well.
Image: Duergar Outpost Player Map. This player maps has a portion of the east side of the map cropped out (roughly 40 ft/4 grid squares). It would be nice to have the entire map so the "Safe Path" that characters might take is visible to the players.

I think it would be helpful if the following Story entries had links to the GM/Player maps.

Story 02.20.08 Approaching the Outpost: Link to Image: Duergar Outpost GM Map and Image: Duergar Outpost Player Map
Story 02.21.06 Approaching the Lodge: Link to Image: Frost Giant Ice Lodge GM and Image: Frost Giant Ice Lodge Player Map

This might not be considered a bug, but there are a number of Story entries that don't have links to related images or artwork. These are linked from the corresponding page in the Reference Manual, but the story entry lacks a link which makes it easy to miss if running the adventure from the Story entries. I think other conversions that use story entries generally have these links.

Hi,
On my D&D Icewind Dale Rime of the Frostmaiden the encounters tool aren't working. It don't add the NPCs to combat tracker and i get the following message: [ERROR] Missing data record, check your modules. Unable to add NPC record. (Npc name) ()

I already tryed to:
disable all extensions and themes
revert module changes
delete the WOTC5EROTF.dat from vault and updated to download it back

But the ERROR persists. I'm playing this campaing every week for an year now and it was working before the update. It is the only module presenting this error.

Same issue here. No encounters are loading, anything specific to Rime of the Frostmaiden results in the same error code while other modules work perfectly fine.

[superteddy57]

Pushed a hotfix and should now have the NPCs linked within the encounters.

It seems that the duergar have incorrect hp & HD. Presently they have 44 hp & 8d8+8 HD. They should have 26 hp & 4d4+4 HD as in the Monster Manual.

In the module The Wild Beyond the Witchlight the pins on DM_Cottage for Areas B4 and B14 are reversed.
also for the Inn at the End of the Road in the Refman there is a link that listed as Map: Inn (requires DMG) that throws the following error message: Attempt to open wildcard links(s) that do not match any loaded module data. Check your active Library modules. (image.img_map_2_jpg@*) even with the Dungeon Master's Guide module open. The lines right above the link just mention needing the DMG open, but the link does work if you have the DMG Maps module open, may need the wording for the link to reference that and not just the DMG, or an addendum mentioning that module needs to be open.

[Zacchaeus]

Hmm, I'll need to look into that. I don't have the original files. May be the developer took a wrong turn somewhere along the line.

[Zer0tuna]

Concerning the adventure "Vidorant's Vault", the battle map used in "Keys to the Golden Vault(FGU)" uses the DM's map for the battlemap revealing traps, secret doors, and other information. It seems there is not a player's battle map with that information hidden. The map exists, however it is not available to use. I tried to look around the forums and internet with no luck. Does anyone else see this?

Specifically the images named "Battlemap-Vault".

[Zacchaeus]

Welcome to the forums.

See the reference page 'Using this module in Fantasy Grounds'. All of the battlemaps are combined player and DM maps. There are two layers one that the players see and one that only the DM sees. The DM layer has all the location markers and secret doors etc on it and is set to DM only view by default. The players don't see that (unless you make it visible to them - which you shouldn't do).

[Zer0tuna]

WOAH! I didn't even see that. Most of the modules I've used so far haven't had that functionality. Thank you for the heads up!

I have a PC Bard with Jack of All Trades and the effect Bard; Jack of All Trades; CHECK: 2 is adding +2 to both Ability Checks and Skill Checks. The chat does identify the skill checks correctly, but adds the +2. When I change it to SKILL: 2, it does not add the +2 to Ability Checks. Is the documentation incorrect as to how CHECK works or is this a bug? I tried this with a clean campaign with no extensions and it still occurred.

[Moon Wizard]

As far as I know, according to the D&D 5E rules, a skill check is just an ability check for a specific situation, where the proficiency in the skill specifies whether you get your proficiency bonus on the ability check.

Regards,
JPG

[Zacchaeus]

A skill check is also an ability check (hence the reason that it's written Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) for example. Thus CHECK will add the bonus to any ability check and any skill check.

Having said that however Jack of all Trades only adds half proficiency to those checks that don't already have your proficiency bonus. So I'd write the effect as CHECK:[HPRF];SKILL[-HPRF], list of skills where you already have proficiency separated by a comma. (So if you are proficient in Acrobatics and Animal Handling it would be CHECK: [HPRF];SKILL[-HPRF], Acrobatices, Animal Handling). Note that initiative is also an ability check and so you get half proficiency bonus it initiative rolls (this is built into CHECK; so you don't have to do anything). Note also the [HPRF] is a tag which will add half your proficiency bonus to the effect; thus you won't need to update the effect when you level up and your proficiency bonus increases.

See the discussion here for more information https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?27331-Effects-The-Complete-Bard-Package/page2

[NuclearMonkey]

Thanks! You might want to look into an update/change to the description at the customer portal. The way it's written and organized it seems like CHECK shouldn't cover skills.

Seem to be encountering an issue with Kingdoms and Warfare from MCDM since latest backwards breaking update.

In a game that has Kingdoms and Warfare loaded, when a user views the actions tab for a character sheet for the first time in a session, an error appears several times:


[ERROR] Script execution error: [string "KingdomsAndWarfare:..ripts/power_action.lua"]:24: attempt to call field 'onClose' (a nil value)

When expanding an individual ability in the action's tab, the following appears several times:


[ERROR] window: No vertical anchor defined for control (testdetail) in windowclass (power_action)

When viewing the PwrPool Tab in the party sheet, the following appears several times:

[ERROR] window: No vertical anchor defined for control (castdetail) in windowclass (domain_power_action)
[ERROR] window: No vertical anchor defined for control (effectdetail) in windowclass (domain_power_action)

None of these errors appear to be accompanied by any loss or break in functionality of the base system nor of the module in particular. But the errors constantly appearing is very annoying.

In Curse of Strahd:

The Encounters (Random) window has two Groups in the module, one named "Curse of Strahd" and another named "D&D Curse of Strahd". I'm guessing these should just be a single group.
Suggestion: In the Reference Manual, each chapter is prefixed with "COS XX" which seems redundant in the Reference Manual since each starts with "Chapter X" already.

I think both of those are legacy issues from CoS having been created in Classic and then Author used to create the initial reference manual and now the creation is done via export from Unity. I'll take a note to tidy those up.

Hey, sorry for the inconvenience, we will work to get everything sorted as quickly as possible. We have identified the issue with the party sheet and will have a fix out either in this or next week's update.

[Zacchaeus]

https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/996642031/5E+Effects+for+Advanced+Automation

I think it is correct. It says that CHECK is an ability check. As mentioned above a skill check is an ability check. You can have a bonus or penalty to a specific skill which is why there is also a SKILL effect. But if you get a bonus or penalty to an ability then that can affect not just a straight ability check but also any skill check based on that ability. A bonus to strength for example will affect any strength check, melee attack based on strength and athletics skills check.

Edit: Just one more point. CHECK on it's on affects all abilities; but you can restrict that by naming an ability (or multiple abilities). Thus CHECK: 2, dexterity will only add a bonus to any dexterity checks and any skill checks based on dexterity (which in this case would also affect initiative since that too, is based on dexterity).

Sorry it took me a bit to get back with this.

Upon loading a campaign with no other extensions, I could no longer replicate that specific error either. I believe it was being caused by another extension I had loaded that was also in need of an update.

After disabling that extension, the error vanished, and upon loading the updated version, the error didn't return.

Sorry for the confusion with that error and thanks for the quick fix for the other ones!

Hi, the updated PHB module links "Items - Tack, Harness, And Drawn Vehicles" and "Items - Mounts and other Animals" has swapped content. Also, I'm missing "Items - Adventuring gear" and "Items - Tools". Thanks!

[Zacchaeus]

Welcome to the forums.

There is no export category of Adventuring Gear or tools; hence the reason you aren't seeing those. (The PHB was created using a different method previously - which did produce such lists). To see a list of adventuring gear or tools use the filters at the bottom of the items window. I'm not sure what's going on with the mounts and harness etc; I'll need to consult with the developer since it would seem to be a ruleset issue rather then a problem with the data.

[KillinWithKi11Roy]

So there seems to be a small bug I found in 5e with the last update.
I've made 3 custom classes all with three specializations each with the options for them starting at level 3, and so I started making a custom cleric with the specialization starting at level one clicked the option for "spec choice" but the specializations tab won't show up on the custom class sheet.

Tried locking and unlocking the sheet, increasing the level and tried closing down FG and reopening it but still wont show up, so I thought maybe it was just that sheet that was bugged, I went and started making another custom class made the spec choice at level three in hopes that it would work but that did not work either.
I even tried making a new campaign and just copy and past all my work, but still the specializations tab will not show up.

I don't think I'm doing anything different from the first three times I've done it, but now it doesn't seem to be working.

[Zacchaeus]

I suspect you may be looking at older instructions. There is no Specialization pop up now. Specializations have their own window class.

In all legacy cases (that is any classes created several months ago when the change took place) will still have the tabs - since otherwise they would have broken. But any new character class created since the change (I can't remember exactly but it was months ago) will not have those tabs.

[dbachen]

Using the races in Van Richten Guide to Ravenloft - Players, none of the 3 races have languages listed on the class description or on the "other" tab so they aren't added to the character. I think they are supposed to get Common + 1 right? I don't own the actual book, just the FGU version for a cross reference, but some Google searches seem to confirm that.

[Zacchaeus]

Well, the 'races' in Van Richten aren't really races but lineages. So these are things that come on top of, or replace, any race that you have. If you've chosen a race that already has languages (which I think would be all of them); then you retain the languages of that race and don't get any new ones. Having said that I can add in a language feature bit since it won't complicate things any more than they already are.

[dbachen]

Thanks. The way the ancestral legacy lineage is worded it uses "if" and there are discussions about origin that are ones other than "I was something else before"... "Ancestral Legacy. If you replace a race with this lineage, you can keep the following elements of that race: any skill proficiencies you gained from it and any climbing, flying, or swimming speed you gained from it.
If you don't keep any of those elements or you choose this lineage at character creation, you gain proficiency in two skills of your choice." so in that case, there is no discussion about languages. I appreciate you looking at it.

Welcome to the forums. What error are you talking about? The most likely cause of errors are extensions. Make sure you have the most up to date versions. Always test in a new campaign without extensions to see if you can reproduce the error. If you can’t then enable extensions one at a time until you get the error and the last one you enabled is probably the culprit.

If an extension isn’t your issue then can you provide a few more details than what you have provided.

The first thing to do is test in a new campaign without extensions. If you can't replicate in such a campaign then it will be an extension or extension conflict which is causing the issue and you'll need to track it down by adding extensions in one at a time until you can replicate.

In Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage, floor 2, room 26c (02.26.03 26c), the Stone Sphere trap has a movement listed of 0. This causes a disruption in trying to determine what its actual rate of movement is for when the trap is setoff. I'm assuming the movement should be 60 ft, as per the DMG's Rolling Sphere entry under Traps in Chapter 5. And this isn't really a missed thing by the converter, the original room description doesn't list it either, just that you can slow it down by 15 feet when doing the strength check, but would be helpful to resolve for DM's running this module.

The difference is that the Vault of Magic table is locked (the lock symbol top right is red rather than black) and so can't be edited. If you make a copy of the table and use the copy then you'll be able to hide the roll. The same goes for the output type; in a locked entry it can't be changed but it can in an unlocked one.

Do the FGU versions of 5E rulebooks get updated based on revisions / errata? I notice the True Polymorph spell description in D&D Beyond is different from what is in FGU PHB. Partial example (there are several differences):
Beyond: The spell lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies. If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the spell lasts until it is dispelled.
FGU PHB: The transformation lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies. If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the transformation becomes permanent.

[superteddy57]

Errata is provided by WotC and then applied to the product that the errata is associated with. If a spell gets an update in a later book, it may not be updated in earlier books unless a specific errata is provided for that source.

All of the material I have suggests that the FGU version is the correct one. I can't find any errata to suggest that the spell's description has changed.

[Griogre]

With all due respect, SuperTeddy, this is a bad idea.

The basic assumption we have is that all versions of a spell are the same in Fantasy Grounds. While D&D Beyond likely does only have one version of every spell in their database and just tags what sources they are from; Fantasy Grounds has a separate listing for *every* source. You are saying that I and my players should have to scan through the four or so versions of the most common spells to pick out the which ones have been corrected with erratum.

With the official 56 WotC sources I own, 21 sources have spells. I have 22 pages of spells listed when I press the spell button and have the 21 sources open (call it 20 as I see one is DD PHB Deluxe, a bug). The first "page" of 50 spells has 22 different spells and 28 duplicate spell entries. Most spells have duplicates and the ones with the most duplicates in general are - the most commonly used spells by PCs and NPCs.

As part of the translation from print media to FG data, I believe that all of Wizards data in Fantasy Grounds, regardless of source, should be the same and use Wizards errata. I believe that the intent of Wizards is that there be only one version of a spell (or any other data item) at any one time.

I do not believe that forcing your customers to scan through and try to guess which version of a spell is the "correct" one is what FG's tag line of "Prep Less. Play Better. ..." is suppose to mean. And while I am specifically talking about spells here, this also applies to Backgrounds, Classes, Feats, Races, Skills, Images, NPCs and Vehicles data too.

While I do sympathise with you as a developer, I do believe it is in Smiteworks long term interest to come up with a better database solution that eliminates duplicate data in general. Right now where there are duplicates, I believe that all identical data items - regardless of source - should be identical and not just mindlessly follow Wizards errata list.

All of the material I have suggests that the FGU version is the correct one. I can't find any errata to suggest that the spell's description has changed.

Might it be that the change is from the Beta D&D One?

[Zacchaeus]

With all due respect, SuperTeddy, this is a bad idea.

The basic assumption we have is that all versions of a spell are the same in Fantasy Grounds. While D&D Beyond likely does only have one version of every spell in their database and just tags what sources they are from; Fantasy Grounds has a separate listing for *every* source. You are saying that I and my players should have to scan through the four or so versions of the most common spells to pick out the which ones have been corrected with erratum.

With the official 56 WotC sources I own, 21 sources have spells. I have 22 pages of spells listed when I press the spell button and have the 21 sources open (call it 20 as I see one is DD PHB Deluxe, a bug). The first "page" of 50 spells has 22 different spells and 28 duplicate spell entries. Most spells have duplicates and the ones with the most duplicates in general are - the most commonly used spells by PCs and NPCs.

As part of the translation from print media to FG data, I believe that all of Wizards data in Fantasy Grounds, regardless of source, should be the same and use Wizards errata. I believe that the intent of Wizards is that there be only one version of a spell (or any other data item) at any one time.

I do not believe that forcing your customers to scan through and try to guess which version of a spell is the "correct" one is what FG's tag line of "Prep Less. Play Better. ..." is suppose to mean. And while I am specifically talking about spells here, this also applies to Backgrounds, Classes, Feats, Races, Skills, Images, NPCs and Vehicles data too.

While I do sympathise with you as a developer, I do believe it is in Smiteworks long term interest to come up with a better database solution that eliminates duplicate data in general. Right now where there are duplicates, I believe that all identical data items - regardless of source - should be identical and not just mindlessly follow Wizards errata list.

As far as I'm aware any spell that was reproduced in later books was either replicated as is; or there was errata produced which updated the spell in previous books. Nothing in the PHB has ever been reproduced anywhere that I'm aware of. Tasha reproduced some spells I think from Sword Coast Adventure Guide, but I believe those had already been errata'd. I know of no instance where there is more than one version of a spell kicking about.

[Zacchaeus]

Might it be that the change is from the Beta D&D One?

That's certainly possible but I haven't looked at anything related to OneD&D. I assume once that is finalised there'll be a new PHB etc.

[Ecks]

For what it's worth, in my physical copy of the PHB (First Printing: August 2014 with corrections to first printing), the wording for True Polymorph doesn't match FGU either (or D&D Beyond, though its fairly close). Example of the differences:


The transformation lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies. If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the transformation lasts until it is dispelled.

This spell has no effect on a shapechanger or a creature with 0 hit points. An unwilling creature can make a Wisdom saving throw, and if it succeeds, it isn't affected by this spell.


FGU version:


The transformation lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies. If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the transformation becomes permanent. This spell can't affect a target that has 0 hit points.

Shapechangers aren't affected by this spell. An unwilling creature must make a Wisdom saving throw, and if it succeeds, it isn't affected by this spell.

Princes of the Apocalypse:

The box text in X8 (Halls of the Hunting Axe, Hall of the Fallen) is missing its paragraph break.

The pins for X5 and X6 are swapped in location on the Halls of the Hunting Axe outdoor map.

I posted this in discord a while back, but it is not surprising if that got lost, so I'll put it here as well:
In the map The Weeping Colossus, the connection between room W5 and W6 is a 30' vertical tunnel, so a character in W5 can't see into the bulk of W6 without traveling through that tunnel. The FG version of the map, however, has no LOS break between the two- while there shouldn't be an outright wall, I feel like one of those open/close-able terrain features on the north end of the tunnel opening would make sense- once any character has gone down the tunnel, it can be opened and yeah, that'll reveal W6 to everyone in W5, but a lot of groups are probably using shared LOS anyway.

Thanks!

[Zacchaeus]

Thanks for the report. I'll add it to my list.

[elwhynn]

All of the material I have suggests that the FGU version is the correct one. I can't find any errata to suggest that the spell's description has changed.

Thanks for looking into this. My original post used D&D Beyond as a reference, and I assumed the difference between the spell in D&D Beyond vs. FGU was due to a missed errata. Many things indicate that the spell should say "If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the spell lasts until it is dispelled." instead of "If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the transformation becomes permanent."

Jeremy Crawford states "what we did in the errata, is we replaced the word permanent with it lasts until it's dispelled" on Dragon Talk (ref. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWOsPhKNyPk, ref minute 24 to 25:30).
However, looking through the errata (2015 v1 and v1.1, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020, 2021) I agree with you, it's not in there.
My hardcover PHB, which is 10th printing from 2018, says "If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the spell lasts until it is dispelled."
I still think something is wrong with the version in FGU, it looks outdated, for reasons unknown.

In addition, I noticed something else in FGU which does not line up with errata, and also does not match my 2018 HC:
Errata says: In the “Creature into Object” subsection (p. 284), the following text is appended to the first sentence: “, as long as the object’s size is no larger than the creature’s size.”
FG version of spell says: Creature into Object. If you turn a creature into an object, it transforms along with whatever it is wearing and carrying into that form. The creature's statistics become those of the object, and the creature has no memory of time spent in this form, after the spell ends and it returns to its normal form.

Another discrepancy noted in my OP, and now checking in my 2018 hardcover which matches D&D Beyond, the spell says "The spell lasts for the duration" vs. in FGU "The transformation lasts for the duration"

It still appears to me the FGU version of this spell is outdated somehow, maybe an updated version of it came out in an HC vs. the update being stated in errata?

[Zacchaeus]

Ok, I went back and checked the last pdf I have from WotC (from 2018) and it seems that it confirms what you are saying - so I'll amend it to that wording.

[elwhynn]

Thanks!

Okay, I've troubleshot it a bit and narrowed it down to the Symbaroum 5E Setting extension as the culprit. As I'd really like to run the 5E Ruins of Symbaroum stuff and it apparently needs this extension, how do I go about getting this error addressed? Is this the right place to report it or does it need to be reported somewhere else?

Kingdoms & Warfare (MCDM) extension error:
my Fantasy Grounds Kingdoms & Warfare module has a new error (or a new incompatibility with a recent update). I can't create encounters while the K&W module is loaded; dropping an NPC into an encounter results in "only records from campaign record lists can be added to encounters" message in the chatbox. This error message normally only shows when you try to drag and drop an NPC record from someplace weird (like from inside the combat tracker), but with K&W loaded it fires for all attempts to drag an NPC into an encounter.

Hey, sorry for the delay. I've taken a look at the issue and am unable to reproduce this behavior in a clean campaign with only the Kingdoms & Warfare extension loaded. Am I correct in assuming from the language used that you are using additional extensions as well? If so, this is very likely a conflict, which would mean that the error should go away as well if one of the other extensions is unloaded; knowing which one would be necessary to attempt to resolve the conflict. Otherwise if you are able to provide steps to reproduce this in a clean campaign with only the Kingdoms & Warfare extension would be very helpful.

Sound Set Updates
[Added] war pick - hit/miss/crit/fumble
[Added] warhammer - hit/miss/crit/fumble

[Updated] Replaced sounds with updated sounds for the following items (hit/miss/crit): club, great club, handaxe, javelin, light hammer, sickle

[ColoradoGM]

Vault of Magic (Kobold Press)
None of the magic weapons have damage type "magic". They all need to be edited to "slashing, magic" instead of "slashing", for example. Without it, creatures with resistance or immunity are improperly applying that when they should not. Players can edit the damage type on their character sheets, but they shouldn't have to.

Also: The item Binding Oath on page 48 shows up as "Blinding Oath" as an Item in the module.

I'll notify the developer. I think magic should be in the weapon properties if it's a magic weapon.

Hi, in the Flee, Mortals! by MCDM, there are sections missing the GM reference manual. For instance, the Action-Oriented monsters is note in the GM reference manual. It is in the Preview module. However, most of the other sections in the Preview module are in the GM module. I'd rather not have to bounce between the Preview and GM modules.

[Gilafron]

The Flee Mortals module doesn't use the standard syntax for NPC actions. As a result, melee or range weapons are treated as range-only. That makes them at disadvantage to use in melee. The Flee Mortals syntax is "Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d4 + 3) piercing damage." The FG parser only picks up Ranged Weapon when a NPC is added to combat tracker. The expected syntax is "Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 4 (1d4 + 2) piercing damage. Or Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 4 (1d4 + 2) piercing damage."

Unfortunately, this results in a lot of monsters needing adjustments. There is other Flee Mortal alternate text listed in the introductory chapter. These may not be parsed correctly as well.

Flee, Mortals:
* Goblin Underboss has portions of the Command spell in its actions. Looks weird.

In the module "Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden"
in Chapter 1: Ten-Towns -> Ten-Towns Overview -> Getting Around Ten-Towns

In the paragraph about Dogsleds, when clicking on the link "Item: Dogsled" it opens a "new item" window instead of linking to the Dogsled item (which is correctly present in the Items window)

I have seen that a fix has been released for this (see announcement here (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?78794-Release-Updates-for-August-15th-2023&p=695065&viewfull=1#post695065)), but the issue is still present.
After updating the module I've tried reverting the changes to the module, unloading and reloading the module, and even opening the module in a brand new, clean, no extensions used campaign, but clicking on the Dogsled item link still pops open the "New item" window.

Try again with a new push of the update.

Try again with a new push of the update.

It opens the correct item window now
Thanks!

Actually per all of the books (WotC's as well) the wording has always been Melee or Ranged attack. Years ago I changed the wording in the MM and in any subsequent module I've developed I've changed the wording so that the correct effects work when the NPC is added to the CT. I'll inform the developers of your post but no guarantees that they'll change it.

Had the same problem with Flee Mortal's monsters. An alternative text could also be something like this:

Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft. or Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, ranged 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 1 piercing damage.

This avoids duplicating damage entries.

Note Melee/Range attacks are very common in minions (the above is how I did the Orc Blitzer when I input the Orcs by hand), but an another example is the Devil Adjudicator's Infernal Injunction.

Bone Knife (Group Attack) action has "CR 1/4 Minion" at the end of the action and should be removed.

Jolly Good; all passed onto the developer.

Fixes for all of the Flee Mortals bugs have been submitted and should be out soon. Thanks for reporting!

[stoehovve]

I have been using an older exported character for this class, so I went ahead and build a brand new Barbarian from scratch and ran into the same problem, level 3 showed the features correctly, but levels 6, 10 and 14 did not, they were the blank page shown in my screenshots.

[JeffKnight]

Unable to pick the standard Human race from the 5e PHB entry. When you try and manually add it, it shows Revenant only.

[Zacchaeus]

There's no such thing as a revenant in Unearthed Arcana (at least in the official module anyway). You'll need to make sure that you select the filter at the top of the race panel to only show the Players Handbook in order to pick the base Human race (at least I think that will work. alternatively close the UA module).

[JeffKnight]

Yeah, that's a weird bug with the UA module being loaded then... That WAS the PHB entry for Human.

[Zacchaeus]

Yeah, that's a weird bug with the UA module being loaded then... That WAS the PHB entry for Human.

Each entry will show all of the subraces in any books books open. The problem lies in the fact that there aren't any subraces for human and by introducing just one then it will automatically pick just that one every time if it exists. The UA module you are using was withdrawn from the DMsGuild years ago since it was unsanctioned. Also in the interim the way subraces work has changes and the CW didn't exist. So, it should work just fine if you close the UA module.

WotC, Monsters of the Multiverse, various NPCs

Some of the NPCs from the Monsters of the Multiverse module doesn't use the standard syntax for some NPC actions. As a result, melee or range weapons are treated as range-only. That makes them at disadvantage to use in melee. The MotM syntax is "Melee or Ranged Spell Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 120 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d10 + 2) force damage." The FG parser only picks up the Ranged Spell Attack when a NPC is added to combat tracker.

I suggest you update the text to "Melee Spell Attack +4 to hit, reach 5 ft. or Ranged Spell Attack: +4 to hit, range 120 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d10 + 2) force damage." so you can trigger either a melee or range attack and not have to the duplicate damage text for both attacks.

The NPCs I noticed with this type of syntax were all wizards:

Abjurer Wizard
Apprentice Wizard
Conjurer Wizard
Diviner Wizard
Enchanter Wizard
Evoker Wizard
Illusionist Wizard
Necromancer Wizard
Transmuter Wizard

I also notice the some monsters had a weapon attack with the same issue, ie "Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 4 (1d4 + 2) piercing damage." Likewise I suggest you update the attack to "Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft. or Ranged Weapon Attack +4 to hit, range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 4 (1d4 + 2) piercing damage."

The monsters I noticed with this bug were:

Chitine
Choldrith
Clockwork Oaken Bolter
Darkling
Drow Shadowblade
Drow Shadowblade (Demon Summoning)
Duergar Stone Guard
Duergar Warlord
Gnoll Hunter
Grung
Grung Elite Warrior
Grung Wildling
Juiblex
Kobold Dragonshield
Kobold Inventor
Kobold Scale Sorcerer
Quickling
Shadar-kai Gloom Weaver
Shadar-kai Soul Monger
Swashbuckler
Tortle
Vegepygmy Chief
Warlock of the Great Old One
Water Elemental Myrmidon

Technically these aren't bugs since that's the way they are written in the books. I, perhaps, have created an expectation because I change the wording to what you suggest but I don't expect every developer to do so. I'll pass on the comment to the developer.

[Griogre]

Well you could say by design, but they give disadvantage to prone attacks in the base FGU and it is impossible to gain an advantage attack vs. prone opponents - which I don't think was the intended effect. I would argue the intent of putting a book's data into FGU data is to make it work correctly with FGU not to mirror what works in face to face games. The whole prep less, play more mantra.

Thanks for the report. This should be fixed now. There are now separate Melee and Ranged Weapon attacks. While I was in there, I also swapped out the PNG monster images for webp versions to make it take up less room and load faster for players.
