[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 7944632, member: 6796661"] Thank you. I finally figured it out a while after that post. I've also got dynamic lighting and advanced fog of war figured out. I'm thinking of getting the $50/year subscription which gives me enough storage to upload all my Rappan Athuk maps. I do really like the the dynamic lighting used in conjunction with advance fog of war, but am finding that it gets very unresponsive with large maps. I'm going to try prep some of the same maps in Fantasy Grounds and Map Tools to see if I have a better experience running software on my computer and just doing a screen share. The problem with that is that I would have to move all the player tokens during the game. I'd be happy to spend the money, but my problem is that I'm worried about buyer's remorse. If I go all into Roll20 and then if FGG focuses on putting its content into Fantasy Grounds, it would feel like a waste. As much as I love FGG and their Lost Worlds setting and related adventures, I would have had an easier time going with official WotC material or even Kobold Press's Midgard setting, both of which have good support in a number of VTTs. But I jumped into Lost Lands when I was still running in-person games. I'm going to spend the weekend running simulations in a variety of tools this weekend to first see which solutions provides the best performance given my sub-part Internet connection. I'm going to hold off on buying any 5e rule-sets and bestiaries until I have a better idea on which system will better support the third-party content I want to use. [/QUOTE]
