2024 Monster sheets not showing

Hello! I have recently switched to the 2024 sheets and added a new game with rim of the frost maiden module. While my character sheets are fine for my players, any of the monsters arent showing the new sheets just the builder. How can I fix this?

Hi Grimoire,  At this time your best bet is to create the game in Jumpgate, set the character sheets to 2014. Then in the game add the 2024 character sheets for your players to use.  Then use the 2014 character sheets for monsters/NPCs.

More background: When nearly all of 5e D&D modules were created, they were created using the 2014 sheet (it was the only official sheet during that period, of course). There is no conversion path for monsters yet, not for ones already extant in a module. Thus, Roll20 implemented the ability to have both 2014 and 2024 sheets in one game. For best operation, my recommendation is as Gauss says: Create the module using the 2014 sheet. This will ensure that all existing elements work correctly, and are as designed. Then add to 2024 sheet with the game (in the settings tab). Any new elements added to the module (PCs, new monsters and NPCs) can use whichever sheet you like.
perfect thank you! Just one question on that. Using api scripts, I rely on group check, group initiative, aura/tint health, token mod etc. Will these still function properly if I create 2014 version then add the 2024 sheets for players? I noticed there was a mention of choosing the edition based on what api you were using.

I noticed there was a mention of choosing the edition based on what api you were using. Scripts that affect 2014 sheets should still continue to largely function. Scripts do not interact with the 2024 sheets in any meaningful manner, time of writing. So for example, Group Initiative should run for all selected 2014 characters, but not for 2024. Token Mod is still 99% functional in any case, since it only has one feature that accesses the sheet.
