Question about Encounter Tables
1 project | /r/FoundryVTT | 8 Feb 2023

For resources on pushing tables further, see: - https://github.com/foundry-vtt-community/tables, the community tables that probably have some good examples of nested tables. - https://foundryvtt.com/packages/tablesmith-like is a module to bring tablesmith-like capabilities to foundry (which is a pretty strong rollable-tables thingie/app). This is pretty cool, but bear in mind if this module ever goes unmaintained (as I believe its precedessor "Better Rolltables" did), then you're likely to lose all your tables... and it sounds like you put a lot of work into them. So I'd be nervous about that. - Or you could break out of Foundry and use tablesmith directly: http://www.mythosa.net/p/tablesmith.html, and just copy the text it generates into Foundry.

The Foundry Community Tables module has a bunch of roll tables with random stuff from various circumstances. Definitely worth checking out.

Giving access to PDF
2 projects | /r/FoundryVTT | 15 Nov 2022

In the past, I've used PDFoundry to give access to my players. It's been a while for me, so YMMV.
Now that PDFoundry has been deprecated, is there some way to use PDF character sheets?
1 project | /r/FoundryVTT | 22 Sep 2022

As the title. PDFoundry has been deprecated because FoundryVTT now includes built-in PDF support. Now, PDFoundry had extra features that I don't know if they exist yet in vanilla Foundry. For example, the ability to use a form-fillable PDF as a character sheet (which, in practice, allowed me to play almost any RPG system using the VTT with some minimal configuration).

I also appreciate you can just use a form fillable pdf on foundry thanks to the PDfoundry Module. However I've had some difficulty with that and so wanted a non-pdf option.
