Yes, I do enjoy Archives of Nethys.

Wish you could have the team that have been working hard on the PF2e module(s) for Foundry VTT.

Anyone have a good version of the Lorres Manor map? It seems that it's a little stretched in parts, so getting grids to match is being a pain.

CFA lists Turkish Angora, but there is also Turkish Van that is represented by International Cat Association https://allaboutcats.com/cat-breeds/turkish-van. Otherwise, love the familiars, I mean pets.

@Ched -- For maps in Foundry. My usual method.
XPDF/pdfimages.exe -j xxx.pdf c:\images\i
Then clean up that directory. Move maps to another folder and use another tool to merge the 2 layers together for the other images
Load the map to GIMP. Then measure ten squares to get an average of a square in pixels. Then, import original map (no modifications), so that it's the smaller original size file.
Create scene choose the file. Save. Edit the scene, go to subsection with scale and change scale to copy/paste from calculator. I use 100/avg or if a really large map, I'll ise 50/avg. If I use 50, I also change a value from 100 to 50. Save again. Re-edit and then click on the little icon in the scaling subsection to move the grid lines with arrow keys until they line up. Due to image compression from PDFs, I may not be able to get a perfect lineup, but it's generally close enough. I hate the 3d perspective maps from the non-AP adventures as those aren't made for VTTs in mind.

100px is generally pretty decent, at least on a monitor.. Not sure about on a tv. It's what I use for most of my maps, unless they are really large at which point I use 50px since I don't want to overload people's machines.

I looked at the FAQ. And, IMHO, it appears it was missing a question that I'm curious about. Will there be a 'subscription' for future Foundry VTT Adventures?

With PaizoCon becoming an online and potentially international convention, I can see a lot of people curious about Pathfinder 2nd Edition signing-up to play.

Which makes me wonder how that will work in a Roll20 environment, where you can't just show-up with your character, and details have to be slowly entered into character sheets.

I've been in PF1 games in the past before I was able to find a good FNLGS to play at with some good people on the Eastside of my area. At that time, not everyone bothered with the built in character sheet of the VTT. One may set up macros ahead of time for quick copy paste and just do their rolls via commands. Some VTTs have an import function if you've created your character elsewhere. When I do online, I don't expect people to fill in the character sheets.. They are there if they want to.. If I question their character, usually I recommend having it somewhere online or pdf you can do so.

I don't see any Pathfinder Society modules in the Roll20 Marketplace.
Will GMs be expected to enter the entire module into Roll20 and similar VTT ahead of time and also include the pregens?
Will buying the Pathfinder ruleset on the VTT be required for GMs?

Will GMs get the modules farther ahead of the con so they can enter assets? (Or familiarize themselves with VTT if they haven't used those before.)

Most VTTs, especially newer scenarios, you usually end up putting what you need. Some GMs will go all out, creating all the NPCs/Critters and putting them in the VTT. Other times, use numbered tokens and they keep the stats on a dry erase board and keep track that way. For Society play, I'll put in the maps, I have tokens of different colours and also numbered (for the colour blind). So, someone could tell me they are attacking Red or Creature 6. And, I use the dry erase for tracking HP of the mobs.

Also, another reminder. Stay at Home in Washington has been extended to EoD of Star Wars Day (May 4th).

Considering I live near Seattle in the 'East Side'. I'll be glad once the pandemic subsides. Too many of us have health issues and it's a concern how it will interact with each person. I agree with this call. I'll continue to blame Datch for this one also.. :P

Be safe all.

Perhaps a mini virtual Paizo-Con on the same weekend as a possible replacement?

There are many moving parts. Planning may have been good, but other aspects may have knocked a gear loose and caused a delay for the rest of the gears down the way. No planning can withstand contact with the enemy. And in this case, the enemy is time.

Just an FYI on the blog post..
