Fixed. I'll include it in the latest update.

I'm having some issues getting the latest updates uploaded to Smiteworks. I will post an update when we get things resolved!
Please excuse my quite uninformed question: I am new to fantasygrounds - and I don't find a comprehensive tutorial for DCC. Creating and modifying PCs, awarding XP, I really don't get it. Is there a specific tutorial / FAQ for DCC, not a generic one? Thank you!
I need to update the user guide in the first post of this thread. We also need some tutorial videos. Fantasy Grounds College is focusing on the DCC ruleset this month if you are interested.
The quick start version is this:
1. Click the Characters sidebar button and then the green button to create a new PC.
2. Click the brown button in the bottom right corner of the char sheet followed by the blue button to roll ability scores.
3. Click the Tables sidebar button and open the lucky roll table (Table 1-2). Roll on the table and drag the result from the chat message to the appropriate field on the Main tab.
4. Open the occupations table (Table 1-3) and roll. Drag the shortcut (brown circle) from the chat message to the Main tab to add the occupation, and drag the item shortcuts to the Inventory tab.
5. Click the Classes sidebar button and drag the brown circle for your desired class to the Main tab. Repeat to apply additional levels.
You can adjust the sidebar buttons in the Options window (upper right corner of the desktop) if you don’t see what you need. XP is entered manually - click the class field on the Main tab to access the XP fields.
Hope that clarifies things. For the basics, the 5E ruleset is fairly similar and can be a good resource if you are confused about something. When in doubt try double-clicking a field, push some buttons, right click, drag and drop... you can learn a few things that way too.
OlDie80, I've been teaching some FGU/DCC "classes" through Fantasy Grounds College; but I'm happy to show you the ropes if our schedules match up. Let me know if I can help you in any way.Quote:

Thanks. I didn't have the sidebars - and without them seems to be impossible to assign classes and steps. Now I am getting closer to a smooth game experience.
Anyone else having trouble with the DCC CT not being able to delete things off of it? I right click on both PCs and NPCs inside the CT and no trashcan. Only close window and create item.

I’ll have to get back to you with the exact script errors I’m getting also. I’m not in front of my PC at the moment. I know it referred to “defense” when I tried to add PC’s to the tracker. I’ll try and grab screenshots. My FGU is up to date.Quote:
