Ever wanted to create handouts on the fly while you are prepping on FoundryVTT?

Now you can!

The handout generator is now available as a FoundryVTT module. You can now easily create the handouts for your next game and import them into your journal.

All Tier 3+ patrons should be able to see the handout generator module in their FoundryVTT account.
Check this post for more info on how to install my foundry modules.

If you are not a patron but still want to use the handout generator, you can download Handout Generator Lite Foundry Module.

Check the detailed steps below on how this works.

Step 1

After installing and enabling the "Cthulhu Architect's Handout Generator" module in your world, you should see the "Handout Generator" button on the Journal tab.

Step 2 

Clicking the "Handout Generator" button should open the handout generator interface. You can now select a handout that you want to create.

Step 3

After you finish editing the handout you can click the "Import Handout" button which will import your handout into your Journal.

Step 4

The handout is created and you can see it in the Journal tab. The handout that you just created opens up for you to tweak the title and its permissions.

Enjoy!

Hi, I'm "great Cthulhu" tiers and I don't have acces to this module, is that normal ?

cthulhu_architect

No it is not normal. Let me have a look at it and I will come back to you with more info. In the meanwhile please try to unlink and link again Patreon in foundryvtt.com website.

Sorry for the delay. I checked this problem with some patrons and they seem to be able to download the Handout Generator Foundry Module just fine. Could you send me an email at info@cthulhuarchitect.com so we can continue debugging this issue through email? One thing you could try is to unlink and then link again your patreon account on foundryvtt.com account. After that you can spin up FoundryVTT and try to refresh the modules. You should be able to see the module there. If you still cannot see the module, please contact me through email so we can solve the issue.

I refreshed my pPatreon account, and it's working now :)

cthulhu_architect

That's good to hear! Don't hesitate contacting me again in case you have any other problem. Thanks a lot for your support!

Not sure why either version is not working for me. I can create it, but once I view it, it doesn't show anything?

Jessie Indracusin

So it creates the item, but it won't display through Foundry. If I look in the directory, the IMAGE file is there

I also tried uninstalling the module and reinstalling the module

This sounds like an issue with your configuration. Maybe it is the result of some ad blocker? As you can see the image is saved correctly but the problem seems to be the way journals are loaded in FVTT? Can you create other image journal entries in your FVTT?
