gm-notes VS FVTT-TokenHUDWildcard

GM Notes has done well for me. Lets you add a little pinned text box to any object that only the GM can see (button for it's up at the top of the relevant object window)

check GM Notes, its compatible with 9.x

GM Notes

"update to 0.5 · syl3r86/gm-notes@0e5cba0 · GitHub" https://github.com/syl3r86/gm-notes/commit/0e5cba0d4a33122da7e72b3c16ff5d6457ea6d8d

The GM Notes module adds a special notes section to actors, items and more. It doesn't pop them out automatically though. You still need to go into the actor's sheet.

I use the GM notes module (https://github.com/syl3r86/gm-notes). It adds a new tab to all entities like actors, journal entries, items and so on where the GM can write notes which are visible only to himself

If you haven't, you can try this fix for "Token HUD Wildcard" https://github.com/javieros105/FVTT-TokenHUDWildcard/issues/36 which uses the wildcard feature but there's a button when you right click on the token that shows what token image to swap to.

if you want more control with your wildcarded tokens there are a few modules that can help, for example token hud wildcard will add a simple right click menu to a token to chose which image to use (not officially updated to v10 but it should work), token variant art will give you A LOT more options about using multiple images on a token, even different images for different players if you want.

You might want to check out the v9 compatibility thread on the GitHub page for Token Variant Hub. It looks like the TVH is compatible with v9 now, but lost full functionality, which should be fixed in FoundryVTT v10.

There's a module called Token HUD Wildcard that can add a little icon menu to the token HUD displaying whatever matches it finds for the wildcard images. So if you name your files in a certain way and put them in the same folder, you could make a few tokens called Daelkyr_1, Daelkyr_2, etc. and then be able to switch between them easily.

see the first image on Token Hud Wildcard for an example

Token HUD Wildcard

For convenience use https://github.com/javieros105/FVTT-TokenHUDWildcard to switch between images.

"It would be so cool to use my Streamdeck to interact with Foundry." -There's a module for that. "What if difficult terrain was automatically calculated?" -There's a module for that. "I wish my players could change their token for when they're sitting." -TAMFT. It's just crazy.

Token HUD Wildcard for adding a button to the token HUD that accesses that token's Wildcard image options. Basically, it makes it easier to swap token images for your shapeshifting creatures, or for those players that often use Disguise Self.
