Can't get npc and monster rolls to be seen by my players

Only a few sessions in of Out of The Abyss, and all npc and monster rolls are set to DM whisper. Game settings from the campaign page was set at never whisper rolls but i read that it should be set to whisper toggle, then in game to "apply default setting". Unfortunately none of that has helped. I really don't want to have to edit every single monster and npc every encounter. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Judokilla! Did you wait for the progress bar to finish on the "Apply Default Setting"? It is very thin, and easy-to-miss. It also sits at the top of the dialog box, so it is often "above the scroll". You should not have to manually change every monster. There is something breaking down in the process somewhere. I had thought the bug about whisper settings had been fixed, but just in case, here is my guide to all things whisper-related: Here are the step-by-step instructions i give in cases like these. See if these help: Note that the whisper settings are attached to each individual sheet, there is no actual game setting. These instructions are for changing the defaults for all the character sheets in the game, then applying the settings to all existing sheets. Note that this will also change your PC sheets - you will have to manually change them to a different setting if one is preferred. Here are the ways to toggle this behavior: Always Whisper Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Always Whisper Rolls" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and look under Miscellaneous, where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar. Never Whisper There's a bug in the game settings that doesn't recognize "Never Whisper Rolls", possibly because it is trying to write a blank value. The solution is to use Whisper Toggle. The default is public, so once this is set, all rolls should show. Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Whisper Toggle" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and look under Miscellaneous, where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar. Query Whisper The default is public, so once this is set, all rolls should show by default unless you choose otherwise. Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Query Whisper" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and look under Miscellaneous, where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar.    7. Have fun!
Thanks! it was that pesky progress bar that i missed!
