FoundryVTT: The Ultimate DnD 5e Automation Suite! (Foundry Modules)

Just a few things to note, setting certain summons to having a non-neutral disposition will make them able to apply flanking if you use that optional rule.

In the Midi-Qol settings you very much also want apply item effects instead of apply convenient effects set.

Midi-Srd shouldn't be explicitly incompatible there is just a lot of overlap. In fact you can even configure the medkit button to pull automations from that module as well and set a priority of where to source the automation.

When using the medkit to update an automation it'll keep your old description it doesn't pull them from anywhere. D&D Beyond importer fills those in when going that route.

Your magic missile automation appears to still have the Automated Animations for it turned on, the animation from the macro should properly target the correct targets.

It's also worth noting that I recommend filling in the descriptions in the generated journal entry so items such as the tentacle attack get a description.

I noticed you were using VAE but didn't turn on the integration with it, when enabled it'll fill in the effect description from the item as well as add buttons to certain effects.

You'll also get much fancier animations when also using Animated Spell Effects: Cartoon for many of the items that say the animations are from Eskiemoh.

Lastly I recommend turning on auto accept warpgate mutations in the Warpgate settings as well.

hi this guide is really wonderful, thanks, it helped me a lot in setting up foundry. I have a question about midiqol, I created an actor and a message appears asking me to set the death state in the mechanics. as per the guide I set the player pins to unconscious and death for the monsters but why is it asking me to set it to death?

That's super helpful. This is gonna come across as a bit cheapskate of me, but how much would you estimate you pay monthly to Patreons and the similar for access to all of the advanced features on these?
I already support Mr Primate with his tools as I've found it so useful (as well as a few others ), but I (like many others) have a really limited budget, so have to pick and choose what and who I can support as a regular payment.

Great video, I notice that you have both Visual Active Effects and DFred's Convenient Effects on the list. I've noticed that they both put an indicator of any active effects/conditions in the upper right corner of the VTT, I haven't found a way to disable that visual indicator on either module, the best that I can do is have VAE move further down the screen. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!

What is it you're using that allows you to roll up text like that? that's so handy and looks wonderful! I had an addon ages ago but it was discontinued.

Wonderful wonderful video. Even as a veteran foundry user i still learned a few useful things. Would love to know the name of the new one addon, if it is one and not just your awesome html text.

Maybe it's my settings, but when you mention the Alternative Pause Icon, whatever you are trying to show is not on the screen (your mouse goes below what is visually available.)

Very helpful video, thanks for sharing this information with the class.

What do you use for the combat carousel? Is it integrated into Argon? Or is it the original combat carousel module? Wasn't the original one discontinued in v11?

When I uninstalled DAE as you suggested because I'm using Chris's premade, it disabled midi QOL and won't let me re-enable it with that module not installed.

U r DA MAN. Thank You!

You guys are GODS

This is so useful, have spent dozens of hours trying to figure out what combination works best. Thank you!

A question though, going through the premades list no one has created one for mage hand but there is a premade for Bigbys hand, these seem very similar, how hard or where would I even start creating or adapting for mage hand ?

Its hard to express how much I needed this video, thank you!
