Hi everyone!
I am proud to announce the start of the new video tutorial series on how to self-host Foundry on the cloud, more specifically on Digital Ocean. After evaluating the best tools to install and run Foundry VTT on a Linux virtual machine in the Cloud I started reco...

Thanks to iotech, I was pointed into the right direction. The issue is caused by Let's Encrypt`s SSL root certificate expiring and being replaced with another, valid one. The error message indicates that the Manifest...

I just pushed some significant updates to the monster parser into production, fixing several issues like
For certain users, but not for all, the Foundry VTT tab title is changed by prefixing the world's name to it. My paid Forge subscription I am using to test for compatiblity is not showing this behaviour. According to the Forge support's staff, this setting is...

The switch to Manifest v3 that Google designed required plenty of changes in the way the extension works in it's core, but most of the changes are good: Service workers only being used when needed will make that ressource hog Google Chrome a bit more lighter...

This week was heavy from the dev side. As detailed in the last video update, I reworked the sourcebook parser quite a bit at the beginning of the week to address stalling or even halting imports. The other critical bug is the occasional reload of the Foundry VTT tab when clicking the browser's ac...

The old server finally gave up and I gave up re-animating it all the time. After setting up my developer computer again on Windows because of plenty of issues with my linux install, I am now focusing again on migrating the adventure module data from t...

This weekend, I worked on another necessary building block for the tool suite. I started to transition the old data into the new formats and create the processing instructions to enrich the parsing output by looking at Divine Contention. It is a rather small module with just a ha...

Did you ever wonder: Can this character get access to a specific spell? While working on the next-gen parser, I am collecting massive amounts of data - data that once connected can result in interesting observations.
I was curious about the availability for all known DnD5e spells and connec...
