Some time in the dim and distant past, FG added LOS to the system. After a while, adventures were shown/tagged when they had been updated to provide LOS detail on their maps - and now LOS can form part of the search. Now, I'm getting tired of coming across "Legacy" items that either don't work or work differently to how they should under 2024 rules. Is there any chance you could add a "2024 compatible/updated" tag to your adventures please? On a similar vein, would it be possible to have adventure levels searchable too? Thanks

So far there’s only one WotC adventure released using the 2024 rules as the basis, so pretty much everything else will have been written using the 2014 rules. However all the adventures that are available can be used with the 2024 rules. I think most of the WotC source books can also be used since the subclasses at least were updated to also be useable with the 2024 rules.

As for third party stuff that is 5e compatible I’m not aware of anything that has been released specifically for 2024. Note also as far as WotC are concerned all of the legacy content is compatible with the 2024 version.

The level range for adventures aren’t always given in the description but it is possible to use the search field to find text like ‘for levels 1’ or similar.

While the legacy stuff is compatible (or can be manually updated by the DM), I'm sure the OP is looking for features such as monster stat blocks being the 2024 Monster Manual blocks, NPC spells linking to the 2024 Player's Handbook, etc. Identifying adventures with a searchable "2024" tag sooner rather than later sounds like a good idea to me.

It may well be, and as I said there's only one adventure that has been released to date so currently you can assume that nothing except that one adventure has the kind of links you mention. (Do note that it isn't going to be the case that legacy adventures or content will be 'updated' for 2024 versions of NPCs, spells etc). It may be that a feature request would be the best place to add the request. https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featurerequests/featurerequests.php

Being compatible (OP poorly worded the title of this post) is not the same as being 2024 version. As the OP is saying it would be nice to know if an adventure is 2024 version or 2014 because even though its compatible there are some issues as noted by the OP (not all of them) that can make it harder to play or unwanted to play 2014 versions when playing 2024 rules and vice versa.

So the question is still are they going to have a label or tag denoting if they are running 2024 or 2014.

I think currently the answer is "NO" however, I think it would be a good idea to have that as an option.

As for the OP, the only thing I've seen posted that is running 2024 adventures is the new WOTC Dragon Delves.

Just so. Thank you.
I notice that Zacchaeus and DD adapted the adventure you mention. That will do. Thank you again!
