Videos on how to use Fantasy Grounds VTT

Haha... no I hear all other computer related audio. Just the dice sound is missing.

And what ruleset and extensions are you using? Have you tried in a new campaign with no extensions?

Do you by chance use Ear Trumpet? If so, have you set it so that FG is going to your headset, or a virtual line?

This might be a simple question, but is there a way of layering two maps together? It's specifically related to The Scarlet Citadel from Kobold Press, where there are overlay images that need to placed on a map to change a room or area? I've tried dragging the image to the layer part of the other image but nothing happens.

EDIT: Sorted. Use the image from the asset window. :)

Yep, you got it.

Welcome to FG.

Go into options and find the option 'Combat: Auto NPC initiative' and set that either to off or on. I suspect that you have it set to Group right now.

To measure distance click and hold both mouse buttons and drag from where you want to start measuring. You'll also see distance when a token moves and also when they target an enemy there'll be an arrow with the distance marked on it.

EDIT: LordEntrails makes a good point below. My answer was aimed at 5e but if you are playing Savage Worlds for example I believe that similar NPCs are supposed to be grouped together; I don't know whether there's an option to not have that happen.

Welcome!

This will depend upon the ruleset you are using. Check the Options, which is usually found in the tp right corner under a gear or setting like icon.

The easiest is to use a quick pointer, which is the right and left mouse buttons together to draw an arrow. The pointer is erased by pressing the mouse buttons together again and not dragging/drawing.

Four new videos added. Links in the first post.

I did a bit of searching, but I'm not finding what I'm looking for, so I thought I'd ask here:

I'm running a pre-written module for two separate groups. One group is a couple of months behind the other, and I'm heavily modifying the pre-written module to add more interesting content to it, including maps, npcs, images, stories, all that.

Exporting each individual record (every item, every token, every image, every npc, etc) is not only tedious, it's imprecise. Some stuff gets lost in transit.

Is there any way to export a whole association group without clicking and dragging every individual item in that group?

I'd love to have a way to export whole groups together. Thanks!!
