automated-jb2a-animations VS Tokenmagic

Honestly, I've never seen an issue like that. If nobody here can help, you could take your question either to the JB2A Discord, where Automated Animations has a specific section that Otigon runs, or the AA Github.

This can definitely be done with Sequencer but it isn't necessarily going to be the easiest thing in the world. Automated Animations might also help, but I haven't used it in a while.

automated-jb2a-animations - At its core, Automated Animations is centered around the use of "instant" effects such as Weapon Attacks and Spell Effects. There are some areas that branch off from this concept and will be explained in the Wiki.

Examples here.

For visual effects only, I use JB2A Animations and then link to the attacks using Automated Animations which then play various animations when the actions are triggered. You have to change the animation selected if the item changes (from "sword" to "flaming sword" for example) but that shouldn't happen a lot

Automated Animations

Hey, the Automated Animations module from Otigon has now an automatic recognition menu in its settings where you can set a spell effect or attack animation linked to its name. A-A automatic recognition example video In the video, I add an entry called Talon so any item with the name Talon will pick up this animation (except if I create another one specifically called Talon Strike for example) On the Automated Animations Github, there is some very good information about it including a great wiki Otigon is very active on our JB2A Discord and our community can help answering questions you may have. :)

You can use the module TokenMagicFX to adjust the token in various ways.

Token Magic FX it'll add a compendium full of all sorts of cool token fx.

Token Magic FX, despite the name, adds magic to more than just tokens! You can set all sorts of defaults for templates, but be aware that when you install it the defaults might be a little more flashy than you're looking for (or they might be exactly to your taste... everyone's different). When you go into the module's settings the Automatic Template Settings is right at the top and that's where you can start tweaking to get things how you'd like them to be.

This is really awesome! You may be able to save yourself some time by adding some dynamic effects with TokenMagicFX. You could have her swoop into the field, hover around her tile, add particle effects, and even cast shadows all without needing to modify the underlying animation at all.

You can use TokenMagic to add depth to the scene by adding shadows to floating characters. Here's an example of how that could look (apologies as I don't have an appropriate map for this): https://i.imgur.com/gOVJRnQ.png

In addition to this you can use (Token Magic FX)[https://github.com/Feu-Secret/Tokenmagic] to make those magic circles glow, highlight important objects, and more with basically 0 additional effort.

There's also the Token Magic FX module which is definitely more advanced, but if you're comfortable editing the guts of a macro, you could write some that would shift between images with a little more fan fare.
