Recreating Dungeondraft in Foundry VTT - Advanced Mapping and Module Tutorial

Күн бұрын

Dungeondraft is our favorite mapping software. But what if you could replicate a little Dungeondraft functionality inside Foundry VTT? Well, now you can. With two modules, Dungeon Draw and Mass Edit, you can build on-the-fly scenes directly in Foundry with walls, floors, assets brushes, and more.

I really appreciate these! Thanks! I did notice a few times when you select something, it's off the screen. I think I found most of them but just FYI. This happened now in a few videos.

I'm looking to have the option to DM in person, and thinking about how to do that using my Foundry maps, are there any methods for printing Foundry maps that takes levels and overhead tiles into account?

How does one get the BW TMFX macros? I just updated all my Mods and I still don't see any of them when I create a brush. I see the .Json in the description, but how do you install it? Love the new Mass Edit BTW. Amazing work

There should be a macro in the Token Magic FX macro compendium for importing filters. It's called Import FX Presets (local). Use it to upload the custom Jason file, and then restart your world.

Just downloaded Foundry during the sale and I am really enjoying it but it looks like the Dungeon Draw module isn't compatible with the current Foundry version. Would you suggest that I download an older version of Foundry (v11) or wait for the DD module to be updated?

@Baileywiki Ай бұрын

Absolutely go with v11 for the next month. If you want the real module experience, they are all in process of being updated, and v12 is just too new and will break many of them.

Tour de force! TY

So I downloaded the Json for the macros, but how do I actually import it into my game?

@Baileywiki Ай бұрын

There was a hot fix released last night, so you shouldn't have to do anything. Just update all your Baileywiki modules and re-import any scenes.

as far as I see it, this is good for people that don't have dungeondraft and wouldn't get many assets for it, creating a convenient tool to do map making in foundry. for anyone that actually has dungeondraft, it's a downgrade (but I wish dungeondraft had search features as good as those... finding a pattern is hell). I thinks it really boils down to my preference, but while I like and use a lot of recent assets, they are too realistic, ending up creating the effect of the demo map: a map that should be good by the rules, but that it's actually a bit subpar, like the ones I would make with pen, drawing board and cleaning alcohol when playing irl. a big part of playing online is being able to have a computer to show good stuff, but that... and I know it was a demo, but even the city streets, while good, are a bit... off, to say. as I said, it's a matter of preferences and I really prefer your old stuff (I take as example the church, one of the first video I saw from you long ago), but beside that, I believe that having more control and a more clean result with dungeondraft is better in the long run. and I also can't handle using too many tiles and tokens and then merging them up, it's really easy to mess up something.

It sounds like you didn't make it to the end. Imo, it's not a replacement for Dungeondraft. Rather, it's and/both. Being able to design in Dungeondraft and then lay out alterations and embellishments in Foundry is the best. But for those who want on-the-fly mapping with quick prep, and are willing to sacrifice some artistry, doing it directly in Foundry is hard to beat.

@@Baileywiki nono, I watched that part. It's Just that I'm a bit less ottimistic than you. And moreover, I was talking about new users that might or might not be thinking about buying foundry and dungeondraft. And that's also what I said, that as long as you don't mind losing on art, It Is worth It, making It not much different to irl dnd

@MuttleyVonErich00 Ай бұрын

To clarify, I can't import/use dungeondraft packs?

@Baileywiki Ай бұрын

You would have to unpack the pack using Eightbitz tools. Then you could bring those into Foundry. And if you wait about a week, Mass Edit is getting updated to easily index all of your data folders for images. This would make it super easy to instantly index you're whole library.

Are there any asset for current period games ?

@Baileywiki Ай бұрын

I have many assets that could work for current period, including many coming next week. But if you want modern things, you'll need to search for artists that specialize in that. Check out Cartography Assets.

@evilDMguy Ай бұрын

I don't think he does modern assets. I checked what I have, as a supporter, and he has some industrial items but I think those are more steampunk type than modern.

@Baileywiki Ай бұрын

Cartography Assets is a website with tons of artists. There are definitely modern artists on there.

@evilDMguy Ай бұрын

I do apologize for not offering options. I use patreon creators for a lot of my assets. I like PeaPu for cyberpunk assets and have used them. Tom Cartos has TC Modern for assets. A search revealed these two. a day at creates modern assets Paranormal Arsenal also creates some.

Awesome. Thanks for reporting back!
