Right, that's what I did. It shows up and changes in the "Character Selection" window, but in mine it doesn't show up on the actual character sheet window - in the upper right, next to the 'Main' tab. No matter what I do, it stays a little grey dot.

The space in the top right of the PC sheet is for a token, not a portrait. A small, but important, distinction.Quote:

Welcome to the FG forums R0bperry!
Yep, it's Unity that's causing this. See the thread link posted next to the big red text at the top of post #1.Quote:

How does one does that, here? Is there similar functionality I'm just not seeing? When I drag the token onto a map, it's massively out of scale and I can't find a way to adjust the size in any of the right-click options. There are options for rotation, visibility, locking and unlocking tokens, locking and unlocking scale, but no way to adjust the scale. Do you have to manually change the image size to 1x1 inch and then re-save it to your local folder? If I make the map big enough to put the tokens in scale, it's going to be HUGE. I can't imagine there isn't an easier way.
Never mind! Found it. Ctrl scroll. Ignore that last post and thanks for the continued help. I'll probably be back soon. lol
See scaling here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/...Tokens#Scaling Refer to the "for older rulesets" section.
If your tokens are all roughly the same size, you can lock the token scaling on a map - the Wiki describes how to do this for maps of different sizes.
New day, new question. :D
Does the "Starship" group sheet thing not function as a ship in combat? I can assign its basic stats (Sil, Spd, etc), but I can't find a way to add weapons or anything and it doesn't appear to have any dice pools you can roll, nor can I even add it to the combat tracker. Am I misinterpreting the intent of this? Was it meant to just be a group inventory? Does the group's ship have to be assigned to each of their character sheets for them to roll for it? (If there's a video or something for this that I just haven't found, I'm happy to just be pointed at it.)
Other (related) problem - in my attempt to assign ship stats, I dragged the little square for a ship to the sheet and now it's stuck in the Notes section of the 'Starship' tab and I can't delete it. Note the lack of a Delete option in the pic.Attachment 33778
(Also, what's the format for showing a picture right in the post instead of making people open it as a link? I just want to be as concise and considerate as possible.)

Right-click - select formatting and then change the formatting to body text. Or press CTRL+1. https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/...ed_Text_FieldsQuote:

When you have a NPC pilot and his asigned vehicle in the combat tracker; is there a way to deal damage automatically (drag and drop) to the vehicle? It is always dealed to the pilot. I can only do it manually to his vehicle. See the attached image please.
Thanks in advance!

This hasn't been implemented. See post #4 for features not implemented.Quote:

Is there a layers extension that works in the EotE v2 ruleset (looking at the CoreRPG layers extension, specifically)? I've read that running incompatible extensions can mess with your game, so I thought I'd ask first. The only thing keeping me from completely switching to FG from Roll20 is the map features.
Nope.Quote:

I'll keep following it, for sure. Thanks.
Hi, I can't seem to access any portraits now. I think it may have been an update that fantasy grounds did because I have used them before. All the other game systems I use can view the portraits.
The player, not the GM, access portraits via the portrait button in the top right of the desktop in this ruleset.Quote:

Sorry, I misunderstood what your actual issue is. See the third bullet point in the Known Issues section of post #3.Quote:

Hey, just wanted to thank you for a fantastic ruleset. It's something I plan to use even during normal table-centric sessions. This is my GM screen!
However, I do have one question/problem that I haven't been able to figure out. I watched the videos (maybe I missed the relevant part) and have been pretty good at noodling things out on my own, but what I can't figure out is how to link a character with a vehicle. I got caught with my pants down on the last session in which I needed vehicle combat for the first time and don't want a repeat of that ;)
In case my meaning isn't clear, I'd like to know how to have a specific character or NPC connected to a specific vehicle, so that the player's relevant skills get applied to relevant weapons when rolling (and presumably other things like maneuver boost/setback to piloting skills, etc...). Is that a feature on the Classic version? If not, How do people generally work around it easiest?
Hey mossfoot glad you're making good use of the ruleset.
To add a vehicle to a PC or NPC, you can either go to the Vehicle tab of the PC/NPC sheet and enter the data, or drag/drop a vehicle record to any tab on the PC - this will populate the vehicle data. If you want the info to be available in the combat tracker (linked to the actor - see next paragraph) click the "Track Vehicle" checkbox in the top right of the vehicle tab.
Then, in the combat tracker, check the "Show Vehicles" check at the bottom of the window to show the high level info under the actor in the bottom half of the tracker - you can show/hide individually using the "Vehicle in Tracker" checkbox next to each actor entry.
You'll need to manually apply damage (I never got around to implementing vehicle level damage) and track other things like current speed, etc. in the vehicle record on the CT or in the character sheet. Vehicle criticals should work though.
Adding damage manually is fine. Small price to pay for an overall excellent setup! Maybe someday I'll upgrade to Unity, at which point hopefully a similar ruleset will be up and running (I understand someone is working on something for Genesys), but as long as I'm using Classic, this is the ruleset I'll be using. :)
Quick new question - I love how you can create critical injuries by dragging and dropping the token to a character and how that stacks with each subsequent hit, but how do you add to that if a weapon has a bonus to critical damage to it (ie Viscious). Is there an easy way to buff that critical roll? Or is there a workaround that can be used?
Type the additional modifier in the modifier stack before dragging the critical token.Quote:

There isn't a calendar in this ruleset.Quote:

(EDIT: Nevermind. I ran an update and for some reason it's working now. But I know people would have helped and I appreciate it anyway :) )
Hey I just updated FGU to the latest build 4.0.0 and the EotE ruleset is not reading. The launcher generates the following Error log (too long to copy/paste).
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zEj...ew?usp=sharing
Unless something changed recently, the ruleset does not work in Unity without a lot of errors etc. You can follow here:Quote:

Also, there is a community effort to get the Genesys ruleset compatible with CoreRPG, which should make it Unity friendly. Once that ruleset is finished the plan is to convert it to a new Star Wars ruleset for CoreRPG/Unity as well.
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...495#post474495
For Unity there's a big notice in red and link in the first post.
Thanks for providing some more info @punisher5150
Short version: One character (Kyan) can't roll his lightsaber attack from his character sheet. Double-clicking the die symbol does nothing, and when you try to drag it to the dice box, it just pulls the whole character sheet around. The same thing happens when I open his sheet and try to roll.
Longer version: As stated above. Other characters can roll without issue, and I can roll their sheets for them and everything works. I tried adding other weapons to Kyan's sheet and they rolled normally. After some poking around, I noticed that if I change the weapon properties so that it rolls with any other skill than Lightsaber (LS in the "What skill" field of the item), it rolls normally. When I use the D20 button next to the lightsaber skill in the Skills tab, it rolls normally. If I change the skill association in other weapons to LS, it causes the same problem. Everyone else's roll icon for their lightsabers works normally (both double-clicking and dragging dice to the box), as does the button for a new Test Character with the same stats. I have no idea what to look for at this point. Any assistance is appreciated, as always.
(Small edits for spelling. Sorry, it's late and we just wrapped a 7-hour game.)
I'm guessing that player has edited the name of the skill. The skill needs to remain "Lightsaber (Br)" or just "Lightsaber" - even it they change the characteristic it uses, don't change the skill name to "Lightsaber (Ag)" (for example), just change the underlying characteristic in the skill settings.Quote:

I downloaded the EotE and setup a new campaign Fantasy Grounds loads up fine but I cant do anything, including turn on any modules in the library, I'm running Ultimate Classic.
Help me Obi Wan Kenobi
Have you downloaded any of the community modules and out them in your <FG app data>\modules directory? https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...ibrary-modulesQuote:

I figured out that you click on the book and scroll left to turn the book on, but I cant create characters how I do in D&D 5e or VampireQuote:
