Bestiary Token

[Birger Tucholski]

Hi,
is it planned to replace Letter Token to Image Token in the Bestiary´s?? Like the Purchase from Paizo for the VTT Foundry ??. i Know it is al lot of work but it looks Cooler :o :o

Letter tokens are only used when there wasn't any artwork for the creature provided by Paizo.

Which creatures are you specifically referring to so we can check to see if there's artwork?

I look tomorow, if i can sort the Token in FG and check the same on Foundry, then i post the NPC here. i think its easyer for you i i sort this in 3 Books

I know it's easier when they have art tokens already on them.
But, if you have an NPC with no art, and it's one you really would like a token for, there is a free app for Windows called Token Tool. It will open jpg, png, tiff, and some others. And will save as multiple formats (for tokens, you'll want png). There is a myriad of circle, square, and hex borders to choose from. Takes a couple minutes to get everything set up, but then you'll have any art you want.

Are you talking about the fake 3d token pack they released that looks like this one?

Paizo Released Token for Foundry.

i like the Paizo Artwork, and i hope that the artwork can be implementet in every monster from the original Pathfinder MHB

If i have an NPC Yes i can create a Token. but the Artwork from Paizo looks so great and i cand find every token grafic for every NPC from the Monster Hand Book.

Thank you for spending the time to go through the list. None of those creatures have artwork in the base Bestiary product. For the Pathfinder products we only include what comes with the base product - we don't add in extra artwork. There are 346 creature tokens provided with the PF2 Bestiary 1, but there are more creatures than that, hence some creatures don't have appropriate artwork from the product and so use letter tokens as default.

The Foundry token pack you link is $60 and includes custom artwork provided by Paizo specifically for that product. There's no PDF discount with that, so it's essentially costing $20 per bestiary to get tokens. I'll ask Smiteworks if there's anything similar we can do, but it may be that Paizo require a similarly priced product to the Foundry VTT $60 version - I don't know if that will be the case (if we even get the artwork), I'm just mentioning that as a possibility as I'd be surprised if we'd be allowed just to add them to the current Bestiary products, but I could be wrong.

for me it is ok to Buy extra Token Artwork for the Bestiary, but that ist only my Oppinion. Thank you for Respons.

I would also be willing to spend money for more monster artwork, for sure.

[Milke]

Yea. Especially if that's for all three Bestiaries. Assuming that it auto-loads them to the creatures when you download the pack. I'm not paying $60 to have to load tokens myself. If I'm doing that, I might as well make my own tokens for free :p
But if it's click, click, whammo, and they're all added. Yea, I'd pay that, for sure.
