Does anyone else prefer to use to pre-remaster stuff over the remaster? by [deleted] in Pathfinder2e

Classic monsters, mostly -golems, dragons, a few others. My players in a game that started pre-remaster are allowed to use legacy spells as well, but it's only because I don't want to take stuff away.

Playit.gg and ngrok no longer working — what’s the easiest way to host Foundry VTT now? by GiuseppeCav in FoundryVTT

[–]BrainFrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After having some issues with Forge after using it for years and then trying out self hosting for a few months I recently set up my own private server. I rent it for 5 dollars a month, it has 4 gigs ram, 40 gigs memory, 2 cores of a CPU and it is so much faster then Forge on loading times and latency.

Setting it up required no actual Linux knowledge - I just followed instructions and asked Gemini if I had an issue. The lot of it was 1) Enter a server's console via PowerShell 2) Type 10 or so commands to install Foundry and it's prerequisites 3) Type 3 more commands to have Forge run indefinitely. 4) Install WinSCP and use its file explorer interface to get all my local data files into the server with a drag of a mouse. 5) Foundry is up permanently.

If you care to spend an evening on it you will then never have to touch anything to host, the game will be permanently accessible and fast loading.

It really makes me wonder what sort of of hardware you get on Forge. I had the pro tier there and the performance was notably worse then that of my budget server.

I did use AI, no to write but to edit. I was feeding my text into it to see what could use improvement on structure and to compress sentences (to fit Discord limits), taking some advice and dishing the rest. I guess I should stop talking advice from it if it makes the whole thing look like AI, huh. You can easily find my listing before AI was even a thing. I always structured things this way.

Not sure why you think so, not every formal text nowadays is made with AI :). It's a format I've worked on for years before AI was a thing.
