Hey Jaime, stupidity very rarely has anything to do with Roll20, rather their completely awkward way of using and setting up assets. There is always a lot of manual work involved. I don't even know if the browser addin still exists or works. As mentioned in the video, I have no influence on its development. But I can give you some information that might help you. If a map is 3840x2160px (=old maps) the grid size is mostly 120px with 32x18 squares. With 16:9 squares the squares are 240px and with 48x27 a square is 80px. The newer maps always have a pixel size of 100px and the number of squares is the resolution divided by 100. 4500x6000 therefore has 45x60 squares with 100px per square. I hope this helps a little. Best, Ben
