Thanks for the video! For the “Game Paused” problem I installed the module: “Koboldworks - pause control”. And then in the configuration for the module select “unpause on ready”. Happy gaming!
Appreciate the content - new to VTT and returning to D&D. Looking forward to playing around with some campaigns and even creating my own eventually! It would be cool to play a campaign with you - I'm sure there would be many people following you interested in that
Thanks a lot for the kind words! I think the only challenge with running a campaign for people here is my timezone. I’m 7 - 10 hours ahead of the USA which is tough scheduling wise
Aaawww that’s unfortunate! In v11 it for sure won’t work out of the box and the developer hasn’t updated it in over a year so I think it is dead atm :(
Looking at the module's Github page, this is a reported bug with the latest version. A community member is working on a fix at the moment so this should get fixed at some point.
Given that the GM is going to use a regular PC whilst the players use tablets, is there any way to have the module only affect the players rather than the GM as well? I’m sure the answer is ‘no’ but it’s always worth an ask…
Unfonrtunately no since modules affect all users. Is there something specific that would be disturbing the GM with the module? As far as I know, you can continue using Foundry on desktop normally.
Hey Man, Love your channel. I'm learning so much about Foundry VTT thanks to your videos. I wanted to ask you about this video in particular. Does the Touch VTT module work over a network? In other words, say I'm running a game as GM, and I have a player using a touchscreen who joined the game from somewhere else via the internet. Where does the module need to be installed? On the GM machine, the player who has the touchscreens machine, or does this only work on a single machine at the moment. If so, the other player must be moving their token as the GM right?
Thanks for the kind words! So the way Foundry works is that the GM has the Foundry instance running and the players connect to that Foundry instance (of course if you use a service like The Forge then Foundry runs on their server), and as such, when you install a module on Foundry it is installed for you and all your players.
@@EspatiallyGood By Foundry server I mean the Foundry standalone software which the GM runs and players connect to with the URL the GM provides. Self hosting can be a bit tricky and you might run into some problems so if that is too technical for you to handle, I recommend The Forge for hosting Foundry. It costs but is worth it in my opinion. Thanks! Next video is already on the way!
I'm missing something here. I don't get it. Foundry is a desktop app. But you are saying I can use it on my Android tablet with this mod. Where is Foundry running? Are you exporting your windows desktop to your tablet somehow? Is there a Fiundry ckient as well as a server? Are you using a streaming or histing service like Steam or Geforce Now? If i buy Foundry and the touchscreen mod, where do I jnstall them? Can you do acstep by step instruction please? Thanks.
@@frunobulax5 the GM needs to run Foundry on a desktop machine, or a hosting service like The Forge (which hosts Foundry on desktop machine remotely), and then the players connect to Foundry with their browsers. So the GM installs the mod on Foundry and then players can use their browser on their phone to connect to Foundry.
TouchVTT is a module for Foundry VTT. You need to have purchased Foundry VTT and then install the module in Foundry. Then you can connect to your Foundry through your browser using the URL to your Foundry.
Great video. Since you're using an iPad, I assume this module clears up the issues that Foundry has with Safari? I had a player try to play using an iPad with a keyboard case and bluetooth mouse and Safari just wasn't having it. Either way, thanks for the video. Will have to give this a try!
It seems like the module doesn’t show up in Foundry’s module browser but if you google it, you can still find the project page. However the module hasn’t been updated in over a year and is for sure broken on v11. I’m not aware of any other modules like it.
Players normally log in via browser by link. How can they install touch vtt, isn't that a module in the foundry program itself, or am i missing something?
Yes Touch VTT is a module that is installed on Foundry itself. The player will then log in via a browser on their touch screen device and can then use Foundry thanks to the module.

I’m not surprised since Foundry, and its modules by extension, are not designed for iPad and mobile phone screens. There’s not much that can be done about it.

I would like to say that the module has been updated to v11!
That’s great news!
Super helpful. Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Tapping to drag/move a token on iPad seems to always open the char sheet for me like it was a double-tap. Thoughts?
This is an issue on the github
Besides loving your content, I MUST know where you got that shirt from. That is amazing.
Thank you for the compliments! Unfortunately the site where I bought this shirt from no longer exists 😭
@@DiceAndEasy Oh, darn. Well, great shirt, and great videos!
@@GazingForth thank you so much!
How do u download it or upload the module to forge-vtt
If you’re using The Forge, go to the Modules section (before going into your Foundry instance) and search for it there.
TouchVTT is no longer listed under modules :(
Aaawww that’s unfortunate! In v11 it for sure won’t work out of the box and the developer hasn’t updated it in over a year so I think it is dead atm :(
@@DiceAndEasy Bummer. Still appreciate the video, I got the information I was looking for :)
@@whitevii1533 You're welcome! Thanks for checking the video out!
My only issue is when my players try and move there token it just opens their player sheet of that actor...is there a setting I should turn off?

how do i install the module? sorry if this sounds stupid

I have foundry and I am looking to plays some games? Idk if you are still looking for people I mostly play dnd.
I’m going to be putting up a campaign in startplaying.games in the near future
I’m still very confused here. I can only install things from the App Store, so how do I install this touchvtt? What am I missing? I have an iPad Pro.

@@DiceAndEasy Ah, OK. Good to know. Thanks again!
@@nextlevel8822 Glad I could help!
All browsers on iOS are built on safari. Chrome, edge all those are basically just skins for safari.
@@RedHawke802 did not know this! Thanks for the info!
has foundry or the author deleted touch vtt? are there other modules to use?

I had this working now my players r saying it won’t work can u help me
Did you update the module or Foundry recently? What exactly isn't working for your players?
How to install Touch VTT ? I have a TABLET and I am a player ... what should I do ?
Your GM needs to install TouchVTT on Foundry. It's a module specifically for Foundry so you as the player don't need to install anything after your GM has installed the TouchVTT module.
I can’t get so many things working on my ipad… Dice Tray, in particular, is a mess.
I’m not surprised since Foundry, and its modules by extension, are not designed for iPad and mobile phone screens. There’s not much that can be done about it.
@@DiceAndEasy yah, it’s more the safari engine than the iPad. I do wish APPLE would allow Firefox and Chrome to use their own engines.
Dice modules don't tend to work well on mobile devices.
@@gabrielosvair what do you mean?
I'm not a fan of the touch screen experience personally. My brother though loves tablet, and will not play with anything else...
