    That mood shot tip was really good.

    Me: Oh, I know these first few. I don't think it will be a good video.
    Nick: Shift-Z for Mood shots
    Me: o_o
    Nick: Shift+Dbl Click for Bio, Alt + Dbl Click for Sheet, Sheet Dbl click for minimization.
    Me: o_0
    Nick: Q + Right click and what the player sees.
    Me: o_Q
    Nick: X to preview movement.
    Me: X_X
    Nick: Image macro.
    Me: Q_Q
    This went from "Captain Obvious" to "I can show you the world" real quick.
    Thank you, sir.

    These are amazing! I can't believe that after 4 years of using Roll 20 I didn't know them. Going to greatly improve my games!

    New DM here. Hosted 3 sessions so far. This single video may be the most valuable one I've watched to date. Had to stop half way through to find a note pad so I can add all these shortcuts to my DM board until I memorize them. EPIC. THANK YOU

    Shift Z works, that great, I didn't know about that, and sticking pictures in the GM layer is way way way easier than making a handout

    Note: You don't have to right click to leave a waypoint for the movement tracking, you can just press Q again.

    • @NickOlivo
      @NickOlivo  4 роки тому +7

      Cool, good to know, thanks!

    • @Blck0Knght
      @Blck0Knght 4 роки тому +15

      The reverse is also true, you can right click instead of pressing Q the first time, to get an arrow coming from your starting position.

    That shift+a thing to show players images.. that’s next level so glad to have come across this. This will help me build subpar maps because I’ve been struggling trying to make them perfect and it’s taking way more time than i need it to

    Great job with the video. Useful info, well edited, short and sweet. Keep um coming. I just found you a couple of days ago and will spread the word.

    This was a tremendously helpful video. I'm in the process of learning roll20 while actively DMing a new game type (new to me at least, its SotDL) on it, so with all the research I'm having to do weekly, I love that theres super quick vids like this to show critical things I'd need to know.

  • @Dr.Menace
    @Dr.Menace 4 роки тому +13

    Such a simple but great macro. Thanks a lot! I've been cutting all that text out and moving it to the DM notes of the sheets and that could get pretty tedious.

  • @Sumtinrandom
    @Sumtinrandom 4 роки тому +1

    This video is so good. I've just started using roll20 and this was probably the most valuable stuff I learned so far (aside from dynamic lighting). Thank you!

    Dude, I've looked through shortcuts in roll20 but either didn't see or pick up on many of these. Alt-dbl click - Going to be a HUGE time saver.

  • @licidy1

    An excellent video - will be sharing to other GMs I know.
    The image macro is amazing! You enter it from the Collections tab in the top-right. One thing I was concerned with was if the images have to already be uploaded within Roll20, and I am happy to note this is not the case - so long as the image address is from a non-password-protected site, it will post to the chat. Double bonus, if the players click on the image in chat, it will open the image in a new tab for them ^_^

    Yo, that shrinking the character sheet is amazing. Running combat gets so annoying with 3-4 different monster stat blocks up at once. This is gonna make it so much better.

    Thanks for the tips, I had no idea you could use X to review movement, that's super helpful! I knew most of the rest, but I'll definitely give the image macro a try, I usually hide images on the map that I use shift+Z to show to players but a lot of the time they claim I'm "jumpscaring" them, or it will interrupt them while they're scrolling around the map

  • @DivusMagus
    @DivusMagus 3 роки тому

    Omg this is so helpful its always annoying when I move maps and no one can find their tokens. now i can just drag them straight to them.
    Roll 20 really needs to add a good tutorial instead of just a link to the wiki and a middle finger.
