Dear FGU users,
I went to setup Tuesday’s map in Fantasy Grounds, excited that you guys could finally have the animated maps, and learned that it only accepts .webm files with a decade old codec 8 whereas all of my .webm files are on the current codec 9.
I have gotten assistance in altering my map converting script to now also make a codec 8 version. Be warned that this older version is both larger in size and lower in quality. The alt maps and animated posts from today forward will now have a separate .zip file for these, clearly labeled as V8 and FGU.
I had hoped you guys could use all the .webm files currently on the patreon in FGU, but it seems it won’t be that easy. I have no plans to retroactively convert years of files to this format, however I found this thread of people converting for FGU that you may find useful if you want to use some of the previously posted .webm maps.
If anyone has another converting method let me know and I will update this post.
So in summary: posts from Tuesday onward that have .webm animated map versions will have a separate V8 FGU zip with .webm in that format. Posts before this date will need you to convert to work in FGU.
