Hello @mossy yacht ! I'm the developer for the Azgaar FMG Importer module. If I had to guess what is happening here, it's that somehow your map isn't a standard size. Is there any chance you could post the map file? Additionally, when you mention that they are "slightly" off is it really noticeable? If you can provide them, pictures would be much appreciated.

Hi, I've just tried making a new map. I havent imported it yet. Maybe you could guide me

#

for the export, should I use something else than 1 scale?

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 2:59 PM

#

You want to use the scale if you want to be able to zoom in really far into the map, otherwise 1x scale is just fine

#

last time ive tried 1x it was kinda low res on foundry

#

Do i need to delete the journals when re importing a new map?

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 3:03 PM

#

yeah, foundry does some internal scaling that I'm not sure about. Generally I've been trying to use about 4x scaling to have plenty of room to scale

#

Yes

#

ok good. I need to go for now, I'll try in an hour to reimport my new and i'll send you a screen shot of the result. Thanks btw, your tool is very nice!

#

no worries, this thread is active for 24 hours so we've got time

#

for the deletion, do I only delete the compendium in the journal section?

#

and for the export, do you recommend .png with show all labels or not?

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:03 PM

#

@uncut rapids tagging you just in case 🙂

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 6:04 PM

#

Thanks, I got distracted lol. Just delete the compendium in the journal section. Export is entirely you, but I usually don't like the labels. PNG/JPEG shouldn't matter too much (but do be aware of the size, some maps can be huge)

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:22 PM

#

not using the label will probably fix my issue if I had to guess. let me try

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:39 PM

#

@uncut rapids I can't see any pins 😦

#

resolution is good tho at 4x

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 6:43 PM

#

wat... weird. Can you check the console (f12) and see if there are any errors? Also double check that you have map pins turned on in the tools menu on the left

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:43 PM

#

pins are on

#

in the journal tab?

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 6:45 PM

#

should be

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:45 PM

#

don't see any errors in the console

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 6:45 PM

#

it's the magnifying glass iirc

#

that's weird, try going to a different scene and back?

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:46 PM

#

same

#

weird, it was working in my previous map

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

Can you send me the map file that is failing? Also, try just redoing the whole flow (i.e. delete compendiums, re-import map,)

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

sure

#

i do not delete the Azgaar FMG right?

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 6:48 PM

#

you shouldn't need to

mossy yacht Oct 13, 2021, 6:53 PM

#

it works

#

I've also disable/enabled the module before doing it again

#

quick question related to notes, can player access those? to click on city maps link etc

#

also, is it possible to always display the name of the pins?

#

nvm the second question, ALT toggle the names 😄

uncut rapids Oct 13, 2021, 7:15 PM

#

I'm fairly certain the default is to allow players to check them, I should add a selection for that though...

uncut rapids Oct 14, 2021, 3:31 PM

#

so, @mossy yacht are you still experiencing the issue(s) with pins being incorrectly placed?

mossy yacht Oct 14, 2021, 3:31 PM

#

nope, not using label fixed the issue

#

thanks a lot!

uncut rapids Oct 14, 2021, 3:32 PM

#

Wait, not using the label from FMG? huh, weird.

mossy yacht Oct 14, 2021, 3:37 PM

#

using the label when exporting

#

from the website

mossy yacht Oct 15, 2021, 12:14 AM

#

@uncut rapids my players cant see the pins, is there a way to do that?
