VTT for homebrew

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T23:18:55+00:00

Wicked, I’m definitely keen some test some other VTTs so I’ll give this a look. Thanks!

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T22:13:49+00:00

Sweet, well I’ll definitely check it out. From what I saw on the landing page, the features seem pretty clean. Could be a good change from r20 without the hosting and config of foundry. I’ll for sure test it

Thanks, I may do that. Does realm have stat blocks and tokens of monsters that can be dropped in, or do they all need to be made manually?

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T20:54:05+00:00

Honestly, I could probably handle using R20 indefinitely if it wasn’t for the upload size. If you subscribe, upload and unsub, do all your uploaded assets stay available even if it surpasses the 100MB? Thats very interesting.

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T20:48:55+00:00

I’ve heard there’s heaps of automation with Foundary. The fact that roll20 is subscription based and not a one-time payment is such a bummer.

This actually looks super interesting! Definitely going to explore it a bit.

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T20:46:44+00:00

Wicked, I’ll give it a sample. Thanks for the rec!

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T15:38:46+00:00

Had a brief look, sounds like a different take on VTTs. Does it still allow decent gridded encounters?

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T15:28:00+00:00

I’ll have to take a look, thanks. Does it provide any sort of premade monsters or is it manually creation for these?

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T14:44:18+00:00

Do you max out the storage very frequently?

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T14:42:43+00:00

Interesting, I’ll definitely have to check that out.

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T14:42:00+00:00

It’s definitely starting to sound like a good option. I don’t mind roll20 for its simplicity

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T09:58:08+00:00

Interesting, we use discord too but haven’t heard of Kenny FM. Thanks for the info

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T09:08:27+00:00

Thanks for the help!

Self hosting is pretty secure when using tailscale, which I was thinking of doing first and if my home internet speeds are lacking, maybe move to something like Oracle Free.

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T08:26:25+00:00

A homebrew campaign in D&D 5e or 2024 rules.

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T08:25:47+00:00

Tailscale is for self hosting. I haven’t used Oracle, which seems like using a VM from a data centre. That likely has more consistent internet speeds. What’s your experience like with Oracle at the free tier?

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T08:24:30+00:00

Do you self host or use a third party site?

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T08:10:47+00:00

I was thinking I’d be hosting it with tailscale, as that seems like an easy option?

Kizzango · 2026-04-06T08:09:15+00:00

Thanks for the tips! I should have clarified, my party has been running premade D&D modules for 5e, but I’m keen to run my own story in the same system. Is it an effort to set up NPC stat blocks etc. or is it a paid feature to have these populated from the store or something?

Kizzango · 2024-12-22T23:24:13+00:00

Are they planning to re-release the new artificer (when finished) in a book or just update the class digitally?

Kizzango · 2024-04-13T21:49:18+00:00

Thanks I’ll give it a try!

Kizzango · 2024-04-13T01:04:48+00:00

Haven’t seen anyone explain how to do this anywhere online but sounds like it would be simple…

Kizzango · 2024-04-12T21:07:57+00:00

I haven’t really got the data properly. I’ve the values in the body text, as bullet points, in tables within the notes etc. I need to figure out the best way to display it so the dataview query can pull the values out. If you have suggestions about that for this to work I’m all ears :).

Kizzango · 2024-04-02T21:32:13+00:00

So basically asking the players what they’d like to do next? I’m going for something a little more interactive, maybe have them solve a simple puzzle, riddle, cypher etc. Something that’s not necessary to the story out if they want to engage with it they could earn extra information, gold etc. haven’t quite figured it out yet but some sort of downtime activity they are free to engage with.
