itemcollection VS lessfog

For DND5e, there's a couple options. Item Containers and Inventory+. Both work on v9, neither have been updated for v10. I believe Item Containers will work on it, but Inventory+ won't. Inventory+ has a new repo for v10 that hasn't started work yet if you want to track that. (I do, it's the better option for me.)

Inventory+ and Item collections seem to be the only two choices currently available, and while both could be worked into a useable form, neither plays nice with the tidy5e sheets that I've come to know and love.

Item Collection

you can use the module Item Collection to create containers in your players sheet, it adds also configuration to the container item about how to handle its capacity, max weight, actual item weight (for bags of holding and such where the contained items weight zero) and so on.

This is what you are after - create all type of containers and bags. You can set the fixed weight and anything you put in it wont change the overall weight on your character. Its great. https://foundryvtt.com/packages/itemcollection

I believe the Item Collection module may be what you're looking for. Make sure to check out the GitHubfor additional information.

Thanks for pointing that one out. I think I'll keep an eye on it as it matures. Note this warning from the readme:

Less Fog - Makes the fog of war easier to see through for a GM. Gives a button to toggle between a token's vision and the GM's vision when a token is selected.

Less Fog - lets you control the fog colour for the DM separately from the players. Useful for the DM so they can see what's going on while having tokens selected.

Less Fog

Sounds like you're talking to the right people; good luck getting things set up. For the default lighting changes I was referring to the less fog mod. Not sure it works in v9 (or really in v8 either) but it's something to look at.

Less Fog can make the Fog of War effects transparent for GMs. I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier. You can make it so that even though you only have the token's vision, the areas of that map that are black to the player are just dim or greyed out to you, so you can still see what you're doing.

You could use a mixture of using Less Fog and pre-exploring the area. Drag a token that all players have observer or better access to around the area to fully remove the fog of war, then use Less Fog to change the opacity of the Explored areas to taste.
