Tales of the Valiant games don't understand what keensense is. It's the ToV version of blindsight, should be easy to have it map "keensense" to "blindsight" in the extension, yes?
Right now where it shows up, in the combat tracker I have to change it manually so the token gets the right sight added to it, or edit the NPC when imported (or if it gets entered into a module with the proper ToV language).
pushed an update that adds keensense as a vision type

In ToV a lot of attacks are printed as "Melee or Ranged Attack", meaning the same attack works without disadvantage while in melee. However, in the combat tracker, when these creatures get added, they only have a ranged attack. They don't have a melee version of it to use.
Lots of creatures in the Monster Vaults have this wording, and anything that gets imported will have this as well.
The fix is to make a copy of the creature you want to use (because the MV is read-only) and duplicate the attack, making one melee and one ranged. That is a pain in prep. Even more so when improvising on the fly during a session.
Is there a way the extension could recognize this wording and either remove the disadvantage from the attack when a creature is in melee range (I think that's default behavior and not some other extension doing that), or split the attack into two separate attacks on the combat tracker when it gets added? Either would work better than what we have to do today.
It's probably easier to duplicate the attack for melee and use the right one for the correct distance (since I do believe if you make a ranged attack with these attacks and another creature is in melee range, disadvantage still applies).
Might be better to have in the core rules, though, since technically all these beasties are supposed to be able to be used in a 5E or 5.5E game—just a thought.
example wording from MV2:
Patron's Gift
Melee or Ranged Spell Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 60 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d6 + 3) fire damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 15 STR save or be pushed 10 feet away from the kobold and knocked prone.
This can be corrected by the developer by splitting the attacks using wording like Melee Weapon attack: +5 to hit, reach 5ft, one target. Hit 10 (2d6+3) fire damage. Or Ranged Weapon Attack: etc This way both attacks will appear on the CT.Quote:

I don't have this so I don't know what you mean by enforced range. Melee attacks and ranged attacks are recognized by FGVTT and if a target is prone for example it automatically gives a ranged attack disadvantage. So by splitting the attacks line into melee and ranged both attack types will appear on the CT and you can then choose which attack you want to make rather than having only the one possibly incorrect option. Melee or Ranged attack is a common wording employed by WotC (on which the 5e parsing is based) but when developing I always split the attack into two for the very reasons that you are giving. Unless there's something weird in the ToV ruleset splitting the attacks should solve your problem.Quote:

"Range Limits/Advantages/Disadvantages applied" on/off, in Options. I thought it was part of vanilla SG but it comes from Generic Actions, so you might not have it. But if you turn it off, you can make ranged or melee attacks and FG doesn't consider token locations.

In campaign builder: dungeons and ruins. All the spells have school and source mixed up. School should be things like evocation, transmutation. Source should be things like arcane, wyrd.
eg: Alter Aura, the School is "Arcane and Primordial", Source is "Transmutation". It should be that School is "Transmutation", and Source should be "Arcane, Primordial" (not even sure why "and" is even in there in the school mixup...).
Campaign Builder: Castles and Crowns. The bright fey lineage doesn't have any traits coded in the traits panel. It's blank.
Dunno if my last posts got fixed or not.
Still:
Labrynth World Book Players - Destructive Resonance has Source as: Arcane. Wyrd ---- should be Arcane, Wyrd ---- comma instead of period
Players Guide 2 isn't loadable by Players by default...
All three of the past reports (171, 172 & 173) have open bug reports.
How about 170? Or was that fixed?Quote:

The Combat Conditioning talent doesn’t increase hit points even when I reword it by copy-pasting the exact text from D&D’s Tough feat, but the Tough feat does work.
Chronicler Background from Players Guide 2 has the wrong list of talents in its "other" pane. It lists Alchemy Adept, Elemental Savant*, or Learned Researcher. It should be Learned Researcher, Polyglot*, or Spell Recall. And there shouldn't be any "*" in those lists for any of the backgrounds. That's going to mess things up during character creation. They should only appear on the main page description to indicate that these are from the original player's guide.
All of the previous bugs should be fixed with the exception of the calculation error in Combat Conditioning. I believe this is a programming side fix. The last of the hotfixes have been uploaded to Smiteworks as of today. (1/27/2026)
Monster Vault ****atrice has a damage resistance of petrified. That should be a condition resistance.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA the censor bot on this one! LOLQuote:

Condition Immune: exhaustion, charmed, frightened, paralyzed, petrified, poisoned.
The Pebble Golem Swarm has:

Condition Immune: charmed, frightened, grappled, paralyzed, petrified, prone, restrained, stunned.
It should be:

Damage Immune: poison, psychic
Condition Immune: exhaustion, charmed, frightened, grappled, paralyzed, petrified, prone, poisoned, restrained, stunned.
Additionally the languages for the swarm has "understands the languages of its creator but can<somefunkystuff>t speak"
Not sure where to report this but since it's a 5E book meant to be used by ToV and it's the same publisher I figure I'll drop the issue here.
The Ashwalker is missing its token.
The Wampus Cat - Terrifying Yowl, it has "ear<garbage>piercing", should be ear-piercing.
MOD: I moved your post to here
Should probably just do a search and replace in every ToV Book (or kobold press book for that matter) in the XML for the &#<some num> so I don't have to report each individual instance as I find it (there will be many) :P
But anyways Lob Sap from the Weirwood Sower in Monster Vault 2 has "target<somegarbage>s speed is reduced", instead of "target's speed is reduced".
Downside of copying straight from PDF's without any sanitization tools provided in FG for authors (at least that I know of).
This is all because Fantasy Grounds can&@#t figure out how to deal with apostrophes. There ought to be a global fix for this.
Bug report filed. If you find more of these, you can send in a list of them since it's all the same issue, so long as they are all in the same book.

I'm finding them as I'm prepping or running games, there's no "list" it's just oh look, another busted monster that I have to fix on the fly (and with read-only modules...that can add just a little bit more friction and slowdown).Quote:

There's got to be a better process than the one being used here with KP books. It's really not good. Filing bug reports shouldn't be an expected part of my prep or post game activities...feels like unpaid QA...that I paid for...
(To be clear, occasional bugs is fine, it's the volume of reports that's the issue, I don't report everything because I have better things to do, and given how many people have used some of these for years...like the Scarlette citadel...without reporting the issues still there...I'm probably not alone in this).
This is less of a bug than an edit. In the TOV Player's Guide 2, the Shade's Phantasmal Form trait is written as Phantasmal Force.

I am enjoying the new FG start-up and features. One thing I am finding quite annoying is that when I create a Tales of the Valiant (TOV) campaign and choose the TOV setting extension, it still loads all the D&D core modules. I have to unload them. It would be good if they did not load in the first place, or if I were able to choose a Black Flag campaign instead of D&D altogether.
Still loving FG

Monster Vault 2 - Nightwing is missing artwork and token in the NPC record when there is clearly artwork in the book.
Made my own for now by ripping it from the PDF but it should be in the module proper. Artwork is on page 326 of the PDF/Printed book.
I submitted a bug report for this issue.Quote:
