Let's Play Solo!

[Griogre]

I wanted to give a quick update on this series.

I ran into several problems. One, the current monsters are not balanced to the PCs. So I started balancing them. I actually spent a large amount of time on it and then. Two, Windows decided to not boot on my computer. So I reset it. I lost the Data Apps directory where FG data is stored. I did have a mid December Backup but unfortunately I spent around 30 hours around Christmas and the start of January doing prep work that I lost for both my ongoing campaigns and this one.

For this campaign, I lost the BT Story templates and all the Quest tables and templates. I'm working on the BT stuff now but the quest stuff will take a while to recreate. Once that happens this campaign series will continue. It will probably be another two weeks or so since I have to get my two weekly campaigns back on track first.

This time around, instead of putting the FG VTT data in Windows Data Apps I put it into Documents. That way if I have to reset Windows again FG data will be preserved.

Good Day Griogre
Ouch! Thanks for the update and I hope you get it all straightened out with little to no problems. I have enjoyed following you in this journey, I love your enthusiasm as you play!

Oof. Sorry to hear that Griogre.
Same thing was the reason I lost a stick of RAM and all data in my SSDs + bad sectors.
Don't update win 11 for a while.
And more power to your elbows! I hope you solve the problem with ease.

Thanks for the well wishes Bonkon and Tempered7. In hindsight, I was probably too quick to reset Windows. While I know FG default installs to the data apps and I know data apps is a hidden system folder, and I know resetting Windows and keeping data would destroy data apps - I didn't connect the dots at the time.

Anyway, lesson learned - I set the FG data to Documents when I re-installed, which is not destroyed by an OS reset while keeping data.

Good luck!
Looking forward to continue collaborating the module.
If you lost the addons, etc that I sent, I can send them again?

[Griogre]

I believe I still have them. They should have been in that mid December back up. I'll reach out if they are not.

I did, sorta - I just didn't back up data apps regularly.

I've released a new video: Let's Play: Solo! Level 02, Session 05; more centipedes await...


The solo play series resumes

[Griogre]

I've released a new video: Let's Play: Solo! Level 02, Session 06; foul dwarves lurk in the depths. This is a long video. I wanted to split it but really couldn't find a good place to do so - so it is the longest one I've released so far. No party members went down but I was forced to cast heals and use second winds so it was a big fight from the party perspective. This is a good example of a video to run at 1.25 speed.


Those monsters are a good candidate to be updated for 5.5E.
