I was one of the first on ENWorld to show how to use projectors for battlmapping and I was one of the first readers of Dungeon who wrote to the mag about using projectors back in 2004/05. I'll send you a roll20 link and a discord link and I can show you.īookrat wrote: Would the image be as high of quality? Good resolution? Yeah projectors these days are pretty good. You'll still have the numbers and the map guide, but as its the PCs ship still having the labels isn't a problem IMO.
Instead you just take a screenshot into paint and port it over to Roll20 from there. Unfortunately the Sunrise Maiden doesn't quite work for this it is unselectable in Acrobat. I don't know how your VTT works, but this doesn't add any difficulty to Roll20 for me. Just click a few times on the map and Acrobat will select it without the labels. I tested this on the Fusion Queen, and it works the same way as for PFS maps. Not the person that you replied to, but I've got similar experience with turning PFS maps into Roll20 maps. I never used the interactive maps, but if you did use them, I completely understand wanting to have them.Ī tip for resizing and moving maps on the map layer in Roll20, hold down Alt and the image won’t stick to the grid. The detail and artistry was generally fantastic (maybe not for the drift rock, but otherwise.

Personally, I found the way the maps were presented and digitally stored in the pdf here to be great. And I've even less of an idea as to how to fix it in other VTT platforms.) (PS/Edit: Had I been using d20Pro, however, I don't know how I would have fixed it. I know exactly the issue Steel Wind is referring to because I wasn't at first aware of the "is drawing" function, but once I did that and was no longer locked to the grid, it wasn't hard at all. For the fusion queen, I just switched the map image to "is drawing" and was able to get it all to line up in about a minute with some minor stretching and adjustments. I decided to switch to Roll20 due to the support for Hex grids. I'm new to using Roll20 but have a couple years of experience using d20Pro. What works at my table and with my players may be different than yours.
Now, go try your approach with the map for the Fusion Queen in Dead Suns Vol 1.Įveryone's needs with VTTs can be a little different and unique. So yes, in those circumstances, where somebody at Paizo has already done the technical work to prep the map for you, a copy+paste will (mostly) work. They are both correct, because somebody has done their technical art job to make sure that they are. They are in technical compliance within the PDF of the AP - never mind in the interactive map book,too. Where there has been an interactive map prepared (and in many cases before that, too, though not consistently) the maps have been reviewed by a Paizo IT/Web artist and are technically in compliance with the resolution and grid needs for VTT use. It depends which "previous PF adventures" you mean Alfray. I've done the same with previous PF adventures and never had any complaints from the players :) I guess a video tutorial would probably be welcomed. Yeah, you need to do more than that with these maps to get them optimized for VTT use.
