Come November, will it be possible to create Legacy copies of Legacy Games?

Starting from November, will it still be possible to create Legacy copies of Legacy Games? Or will it also have to be Jumpgate copies?

Yes, you will be able to create Legacy copies of Legacy games. This was stated in the information release.

You should test this immediately after the change and Send a request if it isn’t working correctly. I shall be doing so, but you should test to your satisfaction.

This was stated in the information release.  Yes, I thought so, but when I created a copy a few days ago, it gave me a warning 'you can create a Legacy copy. You won't be able to create Legacy games anymore' and it sounded pretty dubious. I wanted to clarify that it meant specifically creating, even though it said that when I was copying Thanks for clarifying.

You can continue to make Legacy copies (games), you will not be able to make (brand new) Legacy games.

I've tried to copy my Legacy games, and it fails, just as I suspected it would. I'm reporting this with Send a request immediately: Technical Assistance ticket: [#374905]
Hey folks! Wanted to chime in here that this issue appears to be related to a known bug with the copy system (primarily when copying to Jumpgate). If a game has custom token markers added, it will cause the copy function to fail. To workaround this, you can go to the game details page and remove the custom token markers and then the copy should work from there. After the game has been copied, the custom token markers can safely be added back to the game. This is still on our radar for a fix, but we don't have an exact ETA at this time. Thank you everyone for bringing this up, it helps with making sure we are staying on top of the most pressing topics for fixes!

That’s the advice I received on my&nbsp; Technical Assistance ticket. I’ll be trying it when I get home later, updating here and the ticket.&nbsp; In my game’s case, the custom token markers were purchased from the Marketplace in 2020, and I use them in all my games instead of the defaults. <a href="https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/markerset/5135/easy-to-read-token-markers" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/markerset/5135/easy-to-read-token-markers</a>

As the author of that set, I thank you! Hopefully, even though this is not prioritized, it won't be too heavy a lift. Crossing fingers.

I can confirm that deleting the Custom Token Markers from my game allows the Copy process to succeed. I have updated my&nbsp; Technical Assistance ticket.
