For the UI have a look at Minimal UI. Not as good at you need but you can change the hightlight colour so you know where you are. For the sounds I use Touch Portal for a soundboard and achieve this via the module Drag anything to Hotbar. This does limit you to just the 50 buttons but that should be enough for most. Personally I would like to add more, but can't find a mod to do it.
No probs at all. Oh yes, by the way Moulintte (free one) has a sound board module. Not as handy as it takes up screen space but you might want to have a look at that as well. @@DiceAndEasy
A quick pointer relevant to the first one. I self host and use a VPN and I would always have a problem with players connecting. The fix ended up being simply enabling split-tunneling on my VPN and flagging Foundry to bypass it. No issues since.
Really need to allow a camera feed to be used as a map instead of an image. That would allow us to play sandbox so much easier. I love being able to draw a map real quick or use old map stuff I have already that isn't digital. Being able to adjust the grid over a live camera feed would be awesome. Also, agree love Foundry just would be beyond excited if this was made possible.
Yeah the Lead dev of ICVTT loves that feature and uses it in his games often. Not sure if it is widely adopted, but its a very cool idea if you have the terrain or a map ready to show
Awh man. I just did the self hosting for my first session. Took me a while to understand port forwarding. Now you said that there's a potential of my players to not able to connect. Now I'm scared 😢
To be fair, I have no idea why that happened to me and I couldn't even debug it now if I wanted to because I lived in a different country. It sounds like you've already done more setting up than I did because I did not do any portforwarding stuff. Even if it stops working, you can easily import your games over to The Forge so nothing to be scared of.
I would recommend asking one of your players to try and connect a few days prior to your session to verify they can get in. If there’s trouble you’ll have a couple days to resolve the problem.
Oh boy if the new setup page UI from v11 is what they aim for next ui updates I'm going to stuck with v10 forever. mods list is the most unusable thing I've seen in my software engineering career

Thanks for the tips!

@@bekradan458 will look into these! Thanks!

Thanks for the tip! Unfortunately this was not the case for me since I wasn't using a VPN back then.
there is also a slider for Font Size in settings that might help with small text
Good point! However, my problem with small size is not only limited to text but all the UI elements.

ICVTT? I don't know that one. What is that?
