Hey there,
I had a recent similar issue in Google Docs where I couldn't see the cursor on Documents, which made it really hard to aim where to type, and select words etc.
Now I have the same issue with... well any kind of custom cursor on Roll 20, apparently. Want to measure a line? Can't see where I'm aiming. Want to draw a line? Can't see. Want to secret a corner to start clearing Fog of War? The + shaped cursor doesn't show up, so I can't tell what I'm doing.
All of the tools actually work, I just need help getting my cursor back to being visible, please!
hey there, i am thinking of upgrading to pro while it is discounted, is the new plan discount only for this year with prices rising again next year or will i be able to keep the new plan price in perpetuity?
would normally not pay over $100 for the listed features but now the deal is only $10 more then my current plan which seems worth it for my custom maps.
anyone who is more experienced with the roll 20 payment systems knowledge on the subject would be greatly appreciated, currently on the yearly Plus plan
My plan is to run this one shot several times to get the hang of how to use roll 20. I want to make things simple for me and people that may be totally new to dnd. I’ve made the roll20 maps and NPCs. I’m going to make a discord for the session and eventually a reddit post. When I get it going do I have each player send me the link to their dndbeyond character sheet? Do the characters roll in roll20 or do they get the extention and roll within dndbeyond? Do I also need a dndbeyond campaign? Or just a link to the sheet? As a player, I’ve done it a couple different ways (and I see videos online showing how to do the thing) but have no idea what is best for me as a dm of a one shot. Thank you all!
Brand new to roll 20 and am looking at getting into it with friends. I've set up a voice channel, and have followed the video tutorial. My main problem is, when I click the activity to launch roll 20, it always opens as a new window, not within the discord app.
-I'm using the Discord App
-I'm opening roll 20 in a voice channel via the activity section
I can't find anyone else asking about this so hopefully someone can help.
(Image shown is the new window it keeps opening)
Hello! I'm aware from searching that an update to the 5e dnd SRD was made and that messed things up for some, but they seem to have all reported back that things are good while for me they are not.
I am the GM & creator of the games, and I've gone through the steps of Content Sharing, Saving those options, and then Saving the sheet changes as a whole. I've cleared cache & cookies, and I've tried across Chrome, Firefox, and Safari (though not supported). In all three browsers plus Discord's roll20 activity, I cannot access anything but the 2014 and 2024 5e compendiums; my players similarly report being unable to access compendiums that they previously could. I am a Plus subscriber and am well below my player limit.
Thanks for your time!
I have a game where I have a bunch of sheets for characters I like to make in my free time.
I just opened up a new sheet (default D&D 5E 2014 by Roll20), and it's not updating anything after setting the class. I want to make a Wizard, but it's not working. The only class that updates the sheet automatically is Druid. I see in the forum that this was a problem 5 years ago, but there was no fix posted. Please help. I've refreshed the page countless times, used goodle, and firefox, as well as my phone. Deleted and re-made sheets, all with the same issue
Edit: updated sheet type and spelling
Appologies if this has already been answered elsewhere, honestly did google etc. but couldn't find elsewhere so mods: feel free to delete if needed.
I'm currently a DM for Strixhaven in 5e with a Plus Subscription and thinking about purchasing the 2024 rulebook and had a few questions:
Thanks again in advance and if there's a handy link I've missed that explains all this I'd appriciate it!
Hi, looking at starting up a starfinder game here in the next few months. However we are planning to use the Starfinder 2e Playtest material. I was wondering if someone had a sheet that reflected those changes, and if not, could someone offer a crash course in HTML or CSS to help build one?
this happens every time he launches the game, we cannot figure out why or how to fix this
Does anyone have/know a good character sheet that can be used for the D&D Adventure System board games?
I considered just using NPC sheets for 5e and adding the custom values, but that isnt working super intuitively.
I know a lot of people probably don't know of or care about these board games anymore, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
(If you don't know what the D&D Adventure System is, google it and look for the Fandom wiki)
I wanted to play online and I heard that Roll20 was good and I saw it even had a app for my iPad. I had a lot of PDFs for cyberpunk on my DriveTruRPG account and I love the library that I have right there on my iPad.i waited till black Friday and got the VTT for the walking dead and cyberpunk red. I was also wanting to get the Aliens so I can play with everyone else to cause the game looked badass. but when I go to check the roll20 app it doesn't show anything and I seen that Roll20 can crash as well. What has y'all's experience been playing with other and is it worth putting more money in. I heard that Roll20 owned DrivethruRPG, but still can't have my librarys connected kind of ticked me off.
Hi everyone, a few folks have posted wondering whether Roll20 was running a Black Friday sale this year, and the answer is: YES
We're in the midst of a massive D&D sale, a general sale of over 100K titles on Roll20, Dungeon Master's Guild, DriveThruRPG (and sister sites for fans of fiction, comics, cards, wargames, and other community content), and we've got flash sales and doorbusters running today and Monday.
Roll20 annual subscriptions are on sale for our lowest sale price ever for first-time subscribers, and we're kicking off an Advent Calendar event for Pathfinder this Sunday. Finally, Demiplane will be offering 30% off nearly every Nexus Monday.
Check out the details in our new blog. Happy Holidays!
Does anyone know if these services have had their bugs fixed and stable yet. Excited to try out but unsure if things are okay enough for it to be worth it
Am i missing something? i can crate the adventure from the module but can't find the place where I can read the full adventure. I can only read some parts in the Compendium inside the Campaign. I know I can add the addons of the seasons but still haven't found the whole adventure to read it.
I was curious if anyone else has had their compendium fill with strange items that are completely unrelated to their games? I seem to have things various about hags and 'backup blobs' and Drakkenheim, all things I've never used or have purchased. I've also noticed that if I try to click these things it just goes blank saying there's nothing there.
Was curious if anyone else had this issue or if they knew how to fix it, as it clutters up my compendium for my games.
I just want to put a link in a handout that doesn't take the player to a different site when clicked. I've had a previous DM that had the haste spell just pop up as a new handout when I clicked on it, but I can't contact them to learn how they did it and I just need a simple explaination on it
I've been working with Scriptcards for a while now, and while I've only scratched the surface of its capabilities, I find myself stymied by the fact that I can't quite figure out the exact wording for some commands.
Aside from the scriptcards manual on wiki.roll20.net, is there a place where i can find some of the options for gradients?
Specifically, the manual lists the following:
--#titlecardbackgroundimage| linear-gradient( to right, Lavender, MediumPurple, Indigo);
and
--#titlecardbackgroundimage| radial-gradient( ellipse farthest-side at left top, LightGreen, MediumSeaGreen, DarkOliveGreen )
The options I'm having trouble with are the "farthest-side at left top" and "to right"; What are the other options in this case? I've tried "nearest-side at right top," but I'm not sure where to go from here.
The manual also mentions using the "SC-Utility script" but I can't find any other mention of this anywhere.
Ok I'm working on the 2024 with edit sheet directly. My problem is that I need to edit some spells and their source in a way that it isn't my main class levels but a different source like a racial spells with a different ability score.
Now what I can do is add another level in another custom class and list the spell as that class.
What I do need is list a spell as another source I don't have levels in and refer to that abilty score tied to that spell casting source. I need to do like this for multiple spells. Like for example if I have a spell from a feat that works like Magic Initiate or from a race that work like Tiefling and Elves
On the D&D 2024 sheet~
We're playing a homebrew 5e and it has a different proficiency scale than regular 5e, everything on the 24 sheet works for it (especially the ability to add and remove custom skills HUGE for all homebrew sheets) but the only way I can see to change a proficiency is by manually changing the "other bonus" every level on all proficient/expert skills etc.
I am using field sets for a custom character sheet inventory, skills, and more. However I am having problems with organizing the items in the field sets. Is there a way I can make folders or something?
I’m looking to start up a homebrew game for D&D, however I only use the free version of Roll20. This means I have a very limited amount of upload space with maps, tokens etc.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any decent modules that include a heap of maps for different locations and landscapes, something I can build off instead of uploading everything from scratch?
I’ve seen marketplace items with maps all around a central theme but wondering if there is a more broad starting point?
Suddenly Roll20 is super lagging in both Chrome and Opera, sometimes i cant even open the website, any ideas why might that be??
My first campaign as DM in roll 20. Was a hoping to run a campaign for a band of mercs with very loose morals who only look out for number one, but maybe get sucked into a more noble cause. I’d welcome any campaign suggestions that would fit this vibe that works well in roll 20. Thx in advance!!!
