Roll20 support is underway

Roll20 support for Fatecharactersheet.com is well under way. We have several sheets that are in beta. As always, I’m hopeful for some community testing to help catch bugs, and to offer ideas.

This system will require a Chrome extension, so Chrome browser is the only way you’ll be able to use it. I’ll be looking into firefox as well because it can also leverage chrome extensions to some degree (maybe some other browsers, too, we’ll be looking into it.)

If you’re interested in beta testing or just want to know where we’re at you can check out our support page https://github.com/sheibeck/fcs/wiki/Fate-of-20 for the haps.

Fate Character Sheet Upgrades

We’re trying to advance the tech stack that we’re using for Fate Character Sheet, so you’ve seen several big updates that have come down the line lately. Once again, we’re doing some upgrades to bring our sheets up to date with the Vuejs framework.

This update is targetted at character sheets and characters, and it removes an older technology that we were using to populate the sheets. This allows us to remove the Character Sheet templates from the datatabase all together and create Vue components for each sheet instead. We’ve also moved all third party frameworks so they are loaded from our website instead of calling out to a third-party site. This should improve the sites speed and performance.

You’ll note a few cosmetic changes as well, but, generally speaking, this should be a seemless upgrade. However, if you see issues with your characters, please report them so we can fix you up straight away!

Fate Character Sheet Upgrade

We updgraded back-end resources for Fate Character Sheet. This was a major upgrade, and as such, we know it won’t be perfect. We migrated all of the data into a single table to conform to a better standard for a nosql databse. This will allow us to add future features in a much easier fashion.

Please, if you have issues with your characters, campaigns or adversaries submit an issue and we will fix it. If you notice any bugs, submit an issue. This is a single developer effort here, so I do the best I can, but I’m relying on all ya’ll to help me find issues.

P.S. You will also note that we switched to a new ID schema, this makes the urls a bit shorter, but if you have anything bookmarked/linked, you’ll need to update those resources. We felt this was something worth doing, so sorry for the trouble with the url changes.

Happy gaming!
