Hey everyone!

I am very excited to announce that starting this month, we will be releasing UVTT data for every new map release! This means you can import pre-built dynamic lighting directly into platforms like Roll20, Owlbear Rodeo, Fantasy Grounds, Arkenforge and many others.

This will be alongside the existing Foundry VTT Modules which will still be built specifically for Foundry.

Free UVTT Sample Map Set

You can test out a sample set for free right now! We have made last months 'Church of Rot' maps available for everyone to use, just download the zip file attached to this post, extract the files and import them into your VTT of choice.

We have also converted all of last months other map sets for Forgemaster Patrons to test out. Grab them in this post HERE

Please note, these map files were set up using a converter from our Foundry modules, then tested and adjusted in Roll20. We have not yet tested them on all other platforms directly. Please let us know if you find any issues using them so we can improve our process.

How to Install UVTT Files in Roll20

  • In your game, select 'Create Page', then 'Upload Background'

  • Browse to the required .dd2vtt file, hit upload, then 'Create Map from Image'.

  • (Optional) I recommend turning on 'Daylight Mode' in the Page Settings.

  • That's it! You are good to go. You will need to set up a new page for each different scene/level. Please note you will only get be able to see the dynamic walls and lighting in Roll20 if you have a Roll20 Pro subscription. Otherwise you will only see the map image.

Can you describe the key differences between the two formats? I use only Foundry from the list of compatible VTTs and I’m assuming there are features in the Foundry-specific format that aren’t in the more universal one.

Can these be used with the legacy version of roll 20? Or just the newer engine?

Yeah, Foundry has a lot more depth to its system. UVTT has basic walls, transparent walls, doors and lights. While you can import UVTT data into foundry, I would recommend using the Foundry VTT specific modules.

I don't believe so, I think they only work with the newer engine.

Hence my confusion, 😆 Must be time to figure out how to import my campaign over...
