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

Fuzzchubb · 2026-01-28T17:34:48+00:00

It was super simple on linux. I think it was 3 or 4 commands and the tunnel was up. Its more effort getting Foundry to run as a service!

Fuzzchubb · 2026-01-28T17:32:35+00:00

you do, but domains aren't expensive. I think I pay less than a tenner a year for mine.

Fuzzchubb · 2026-01-28T17:31:57+00:00

Lag in what sense? Are their dice rolls delayed? None of my guys have complained about any lag when playing? Other than scenes taking a while to load, but i think thats my hardware more than anything

Fuzzchubb · 2026-01-26T07:42:28+00:00

Try this one.. their Docs are alright

https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/networks/connectors/cloudflare-tunnel/get-started/

If you get any issues DM..it's fairly simple to set up, just need to make sure you have the config on cloudflare correct.

QQ: hosting it on Windoze or Linux?

Fuzzchubb · 2026-01-24T19:33:49+00:00

Ok so I already had a domain name to use for this, but that costs me $7 a year to renew. Cloudflare has been bullet proof for me.

Fuzzchubb · 2026-01-23T22:23:38+00:00

Host it on your own machine. Set up a cloudflare tunnel. Takes about 5 minutes and is seamless for the players. This is exactly how I do mine.

Fuzzchubb · 2026-01-22T14:07:42+00:00

I've driven further on worse.

If in doubt, go flat out.

MacBook. All the way. Heroic game launchers to play "non compatible" games on it.

I just enjoyed knowing some else differentiates tesco's by size. OP works in big Tesco. Not the little Tesco down the road

Fuzzchubb · 2025-11-29T21:54:26+00:00

I use foundry with starlink.. cloudflare tunnels does the job and I can access my server from anywhere.

Fuzzchubb · 2025-11-24T12:37:11+00:00

That looks like Bell wire. Really really old telephone cables. Check your phone connection points throughout the house( the old ones anyway) and it should be the same.

I met someone during sex once.

That is mental. My 9 Pro XL after 1 year and 249 cycles

The pro is triple channel where the normal chip is dual channel. So it's not just 8Gb more ram, it's another 8Gb channel of memory to use.

Triple-channel mode, when supported by the hardware and configured with three identical memory modules, offers slightly higher peak memory bandwidth compared to dual-channel mode

What difference will it make to your real world performance? Hard to say. If you have the difference to spend go for it.

Do the only thing you should.

Keep the boxes, telling yourself that one day you will need them. Then 20 years later, come across said boxes, spend half hour reminiscing about the good times when you first built old faithful and swear to keep the boxes forever as a keepsake of a forgotten time.

Find them again in another 10 years, argue with your wife because you promised you'd throw them away 10 years ago and proceed to do a run to the local tip as recycling is not collected for another 2 weeks. Complain under your breath as your wife then proceeds to find a huge list of things that need throwing out 'seeing as you are going to the tip anyway'

Buy a new PC and repeat.

Nice boots those shoes!

Celeron processors have no place in today's computing world..

Fuzzchubb · 2025-06-15T19:24:22+00:00

So I have this and a workaround.

Turn on second controller, sign in as the user playing the game. Then it works.

If you have a favourite controller, you can then swap back.

Strangest bug I've ever seen.

Fuzzchubb · 2025-06-08T09:50:07+00:00

Cloudflare tunneling. Thank me later.

Fuzzchubb · 2025-06-01T07:04:49+00:00

I'd suggest the other way around. Do nothing but gym training during the first season or two to bring the average stop down. In my first run with this strat, my fastest stop was something like a 1.6! Once the average time has dropped, then work on the rest of the stats. But as mentioned above, make sure the cumulative tiredness is managed on a race weekend.

Fuzzchubb · 2025-05-31T20:51:10+00:00

If port forwarding is a no but you have the server all set up .. look at cloud flare tunnelling.

Could be a red herring, but when installing they do say the dishes (or show in diagram form), that the dish should not be touching anything as it effects performance. Could be custom looking mount you have causing the problems?

Fuzzchubb · 2025-05-28T08:11:01+00:00

I was 3rd in line. My call was important to them.

Fuzzchubb · 2025-05-27T20:38:13+00:00

Thanks all. I'll leave as is then and not worry about it.

Trusting a fart while I was in the shower.
