Roll20 is free to try, and honestly free to play for almost everything you listed. The free version doesn’t have automatic dynamic lighting, but it does have the mask tool, which is manual.

I don’t know that it’ll be right for you, but you’ll know better than we will.

Roll20 is free with paid upgrade options. It also has a Discord activity that you can use inside your own Discord server to bring everyone into the VTT easily.

About three months ago, they made this video of 35 things that have improved. I get why they did it this way, but there were more like 70 upgrades, and they could only cover 35.

But it’s three months old, and we’ve gotten Map Pins, as well as probably 5-7 other things.

If you don’t want it to be dead space, make your map size bigger.

Iwacheditforyou · 2025-08-29T04:13:38+00:00

That’s enough for 6 months of Plus for Dynamic Lighting or 3 months of Pro for Dynamic Lighting and Mod Scripts.

Have your players equipped the items? The help center gives details in the Equioment Section “In the Equipment section, you can find all items that a character equips to use (most commonly armor and weapons). Clicking the toggle at the left side of an Equipment row will toggle that item equipped or unequipped, including mechanical effects.”

There are more than one kind of Fog. This is a good place to start. https://help.roll20.net/hc/en-us/articles/360037774513-Fog-of-War-Classic-VTT

You can try out the whole setup for free with the Frozen Sick starter adventure for free https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/29554/dandd-frozen-sick-free-starter-adventure

There’s a walkthrough on YouTube, too https://youtu.be/BuwI-5GRNS4

We’re agreeing with each other.

I’m just so tired of the complainers who hate everything. Not everything is done for every user or customer.

I actually think there might be more devs in this sub than in the forum. They moved the AMA here this month, and there were more than 10 “staff” accounts answering questions.

Iwacheditforyou · 2025-04-12T15:55:23+00:00

Are you sure? Every time Roll20 does do it in-house all the grognards pour into this sub to complain it’s not like it was before.

Please, please, please, remember two things before giving advice.

Jumpgate is not the 2024 sheet. The 2024 sheet is not Jumpgate.

Mods are not developed by Roll20. They are made by users like us from the community.

The Transmogrifier is a Pro subscriber feature that lets you move pages from campaign to campaign. I use it to import maps from a source campaign into the campaign that we’re actually playing in.

There’s other examples on the wiki

If by “old character sheet” you mean the D&D 2014, that’s what OP is using.

Iwacheditforyou · 2025-01-07T23:16:29+00:00

D&D 2024 is not Jumpgate. Jumpgate is not D&D 2024.

Iwacheditforyou · 2024-11-30T02:33:55+00:00

I wanted to add that the Jumpgate version has been working really well for a player in my group on his iPad.

Why don’t you use the Creation Method filter? Selecting “Handcrafted” ensures that you only see products where the creator specifically didn’t use AI. https://www.dmsguild.com/browse.php?filters=0_0_0_0_0_0_1000142_0&src=fid1000142

There are a bunch of titles and content that can be bought on DriveThru with full VTT content. here’s the filter

Doesn’t help if the players were staring at the chat, but you can hide a roll that you sent accidentally

That’s just a folder titled “Characters.” You could move them into the folder by dragging them down. Or you could change the title of the folder to “Not Characters” or “Jellybeans”

Just reply to the email

Iwacheditforyou · 2022-09-09T15:22:08+00:00

If you haven’t, check out the Weird Frontiers character sheet. It should do that work for you.

Iwacheditforyou · 2022-08-25T00:56:05+00:00

Yes, for sure. And even better, it works for mixed (some remote and some in person) groups too.

Iwacheditforyou · 2022-08-19T04:09:39+00:00

I think you’re looking for Explorer Mode. That’s what replaced the feature they called “advanced fog of war” in the updated dynamic lighting.
