I have the Demiplane core version of the live book, and it’s linked to my Roll20, and I’ve built a new game with it set up to use the Compendium for characters… I’ve figured out how to link characters within Roll20, and use those, that appears to be working smoothly!
But for the life of me I can’t figure out how to share rolls from, build, or track adversaries HP/Stress/etc within Roll20 that could share rolls there. How do we create or manage GM side features which require tracking info?
Is there a roadmap or plan to have integrated support more similar to what exists for Marvel Multiverse?
At the moment Adversaries will not work on Roll20 and are only available on Demiplane. There are plans to continue expanding on our GM Tools however and I’ll make sure that the team knows there’s a demand for being able to use Adversary sheets within the VTT.
Thanks for the update. Hopefully it happens fast.
Just being honest not like I’m super upset but when the landing page/splash page advertises with words and phrases like I listed above… you need to be super careful of what is possible now vs in the future. (heck even a little * that makes you read fine print like (planned update or not fully implemented) goes a long way for customer trust.
I know the merger is new for everyone involved and its a big step forward. So thanks for at least that much. The character sheet integration has been very nice.
The character sheet integration is indeed very clean, from what I’ve toyed with so far. Really wish I could see the compendium as a standalone in Roll20, and not have to be taken to a seperate page/site.
Roll20 support for adversaries, environment encounters, etc. is pretty critical to being able to run a game cleanly with a full map supported VTT. Bouncing back and forth between Demiplane Groups and another app for the map is pretty destructive to immersion and fun, and might push me and my groups to look at other platforms like Foundry that are better designed for GM customization.
Definitely understand the merger is new and involves lots of work, gone through that sort of work myself, it can be really tough. Best of luck, hoping for a cleaner more single source of truth future for the Roll20/DTRPG/Demiplane hydra at some point. <3
Just want to add in to the demand for Adversary support. Right now I have an interface to let my players roll from their Demiplane sheets. As long as they’re only interacting with each other, I have a very basic VTT that barely tracks anything, I guess.
But if anything else shows up, I have to use another tool to deal with it or start getting hacky with roll20 custom macros or something. Which I don’t want to have to do. If I need to do custom work anyway, I’m more likely to do that at a competitor that is better suited to it.
I am new to VTT and I am trying to launch a group of 3 players new to TTRPG. I need all of the help I can get. Very excited for DH but please, I hope I can soon import adversaries.
I’d suspect that there will be full VTT support via Roll20 at some point and it would be nice to see that come sooner rather than later, and it would also be nice for Darrington to offer this to other companies as well to be “official” VTTs and not just limit it to Roll20.
Just +1’ing this topic, would love for more gm tools on Roll20 (or other vtt services). Even a form fillable sheet so I can copy stat blocks into would be great.
