THANK YOU!!! I made this video a year ago for my group. I never imagined it would get this much attention. Thanks to your likes, generous comments, and sharing it with your players, you inspired me to make a full fantasy grounds guide (link in description). You guys rock!!!

[@ridiculousg4228]

The speed at which you narrate your video is perfect. Thank you for providing useful and quality content. I found this video helpful.

[@bruns_tube]

Best video about FGU combat and stuff. All other videos people are so dumb and fail at showcasing how easy the automations are. Thanks!

[@t-birdtyson8193]

Well done, first video I've found that I want to forward to my players.

[@masterofdungeons7638]

Thanks! Happy dungeon delving ;)

[@dustinlight4716]

I totally agree. Nice, concise. Easy to follow.

[@florecita9739]

ty so so much... as a new player in FG I think this is the most comprehensive guide for players out there. You deserve way more views!

[@tribal2501]

I agree with the other commenters. Well done. This so far has been the best combat video guide I have seen. Just sent it off to my players (first game scheduled for Fri)

[@thomaswolf2233]

So much better than the Fantasy Grounds official combat guide video.

[@masterofdungeons7638]

High praise, sir! Glad it helped.

[@apothekerrie]

Very easy to understand-- thank you!

[@domcaval5103]

Thanks, very helpful

[@fingerdrop]

This was very helpful. Thank you!

Finaly a good Tutorial +subscribe. Can you tell me do you know of a way to measure The Distance from a Playertoken to anypart of the Map. Like if a plyer wants to know how far a door is away?. And is there a way for Players to show a GM that they want to move somewhere wihtout acutally moving?

[@masterofdungeons7638]

easiest way is quick draw. hold right click+left click.

[@manologonzalez5220]

Thanks heaps. Where did you get the theme? I called 5E Theme - Wizards but I cant find where to download

[@ShipWreck68]

How do you get the token for the player to show up on the battle map? Ive tried dragging it from both the character list and party list and neither works. If I drag a character into the battle list, it shows the character but the token icon is blanked out.

[@gglovato]

When you mention the "wild shape" @18:13 , you simply added an NPC from the GM side, you didn't showed how the PC "turns" into the elemental, or how the GM "inactivates" the "old" PC token or who controls the elemental (what's to stop other player from using it?)

[@masterofdungeons7638]

Only the age old tabletop tradition of don't be an a*****e :)

[@richardcharlesworth2020]

Well done! Thank you!

[@masterofdungeons7638]

I appreciate it Rich - you're welcome!

[@gglovato]

The quickbar is nice, but has a fatal flaw: it does not update on level up, so you need to re-drag EVERYTHING again in case the numbers changed

[@masterofdungeons7638]

hopefully they fix it in unity!

[@gglovato]

@@masterofdungeons7638 the flaw i mention IS in unity

[@masterofdungeons7638]

@@gglovato Ah, bummer :/

[@ookulelewess]

... anyone know what the little symbol is for Stealth on the Skills tab?? looks like a little AC plug or android icon or something... ???

[@christalbot210]

You mentioned making mistakes. Is there a way to undo them? For example: when the cleric attacked the wizard, could you have undone the attack and or damage done?

[@masterofdungeons7638]

good q. No undo button. But making a macro that is "heal 0" is pretty sweet. Just manually enter the modifier, hit that button, and boom

[@featsofdice6712]

Thank you for the tutorial :). Is there a way for me as a DM to get my combat tracker to be as skinny as the chat box? Mine has more info than the one I see you using and it and, as it is now, it overlaps the map by almost 3 inches when I have the map locked in place, which is not a horrible thing, but just looks awkward to me.

[@masterofdungeons7638]

Thanks! I fiddled with mine by using the command /scaleui 80. unfortunately, the tracker usually sticks out :/

[@loki.odinson]

Is this Fantasy Grounds Classic or Fantasy Grounds Unity?

[@masterofdungeons7638]

Classic. Updated video for Fantasy Grounds Unity th-cam.com/video/ob6AmCAWxss/w-d-xo.html
