Lack of refreshing assets

**EmptyOwl** · January 28th, 2021, 01:52

Hiyas,

I know I use to have a refresh arrow in my assets folder that would allow me to add new images and tokens I had added to my assets while FG was open, but this seems to have disappeared or perhaps I am remembering it from Classic? Is this just me or am I missing the way to access newly added content while players are connected and the program is running?

Thanks!

FGC did it automatically when focus was switched away and back to FG; but FGU requires the button to be pressed in the Assets window to grab the latest files.

Where are you placing the file that it is not getting refreshed when you use the refresh button?

Turn off all your extensions and themes, is the Refresh still missing? Ruleset is PF 1e?

Ruleset is pf2e. still no reload arrow/icon with all themes and extensions off. Could it be a module?

No, modules can't change the UI.

I just checked after updating to 4.0.9 and starting a new PF2E campaign and the button is there for me. Can you verify version and try a new campaign?

Ok, made a new pf2e campaign, no extensions, 4.0.9 FGU:

I note that my screenshot does not look like yours. Mine has a little white button on the lower right for scrolling to the next page, while you have a big arrow. Maybe you have an extension?

Mine is a LAN game, would that matter? Also, my game folder and data folders are on different drives:

Just shooting in the dark: Did you accidentally install FGU at the same location as FGC? Do not install them in the same directories; I remember that it could also cause such theme problems etc

Nope, just checked and they are in separate directories, even the data directories are different. Oddly, I play in a PF2e campaign and the refresh arrow is there.
