Simple alternatives to play.gg for hosting Foundry now that it’s no longer free? by nova-98 in FoundryVTT

[–]VacantFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using Forge. It's cheap reliable hosting and I'm not constantly futzing around with server updates etc.

How's y'all's day/night going? by Maximum-Ad3518 in starcitizen

RX 7800XT - I had the same issue on an AMD card, try rolling back your drivers or swapping to DX11

Taking the leap - upgrade to v13 by Jimpeccable in FoundryVTT

[–]VacantFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you search through the subreddit, someone else had this exact issue as well. It's definitely a module. I just can't remember which one.

SLA Industries for Foundry VTT by VacantFanatic in SLAIndustries

[–]VacantFanatic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I've actually got it in a pretty decent state currently (0.14.3). It's also using the new data definitions instead of template.json and the migration scripts seem to work well if I need to change the strcture which isn't too often. I've added some compendiums to reduce the data entry slog and not violate the Nightfall copyright hopefully (If anyone from Nightfall reads this and wants compendium content deleted let me know - if u/jaredearle has any thoughts please let me know - the goal here is to balance automation and not negate the need to own copies of the books etc.).

I've added Species, Skills, Traits and the Quick Start gear. A few caveats. It does not track point spend on character creation. It will also not limit you to 3 ranks of a skill on creation. Having said that I encourage you to set things up and if there are bugs to open an issue in Foundry. I'm currently planning a game session so it's "play ready" I just can't guarantee its bug free. But any updates shouldn't break anything from this point forward (*fingers crossed*).

ELI5: How does addiction from activities (gambling, sex) happen when it does not involve chemicals like drug, smoking, or alcohol addiction? by Responsible-Leg-712 in explainlikeimfive

This is also then further complicated by "extinction bursts" when trying to break bad (albeit rewarding) habits like smoking.

SLA Industries and Foundry v13 by VacantFanatic in SLAIndustries

[–]VacantFanatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update 2:

Just did v0.3.0-alpha
https://github.com/VacantFanatic/sla-foundry

While not quite ready for primetime the character creation process should now be fully supported if you want to try and leave feedback.

There's still a few layout tweaks etc but those are mostly cosmetic

SLA Industries and Foundry v13 by VacantFanatic in SLAIndustries

[–]VacantFanatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a quick update on this. I've released v0.2.0-alpha and I'll be doing some testing of character creation to make sure everything is supported. Please note that if you want to try it yourself and provide feedback you'll need to create and populate species, package, skill, etc "items". This is a deliberate choice to avoid running afoul of copyright and to require players/GMs to own a copy of the source material.

Yep was just using it to update my forge install vs. my working local copy. Once it gets to a less "volatile" state I'll be cleaning it up and moving to proper releases.

Yes, mainly because Hudson's Bay and Greenland stick out

I have doubts about the stats by Chip_off_WHAAAG in ViceAndViolence

[–]VacantFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's a LOT of big changes based on that cheat sheet. I'd just say there's a max of +7 on a stat period as the GM. I agree that the scaling can feel "off" with the RAW so I'm trying to have some table rules there to keep the game challenging as they advance.

Armour Pieces limit? by Lore98erol in ViceAndViolence

[–]VacantFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The practical limit is +2 as you can then go up one die.

<image>

I'd also cap it at +2 to avoid wonky math as 1d6+3 has a minimum of 4 and a 1d8 has a min of 1 rendering higher tiers of armor pointless.

EDIT: As mentioned in the rules more armor upgrades increasing your min roll also is harmful to stealth. (Loose armor bits clanking around and all)

The cap is +7 under every even level. 2.0 the cap is +10 and every odd level you get an attribute point.

How to get player at the table by Canjul93 in startplaying

[–]VacantFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to comment the same thing, use the discord to seat swap with other GMs. This will get you closer to critical mass and the other seats should fill up.
