My grandchildren and I have been playing Shattered Obelisk sporadically for a couple of years with me as the DM. It's Jumpgate andstarted using the D&D 5E for Roll20 sheets. Because I like to
tinker with the game between sessions, I always create a duplicate of the
game after every session to experiment on. That has never been a problem in
the past but now, when I launch the copy, I'm given a choice between three
options: the first is captioned "Recommended: Pick a character sheet"
and asks me to choose from what appears to be the old dropdown list. This is
helpfully preset to "D&D 5E for Roll20," which is the sheet
I have always been using as far as I know. The second is a box captioned
"Selected Sheet: D&D 5e (New!) - 2024/2014." This box allows two
choices, the first is for "D&D 5E 2024" and the second is for
"D&D 5E 2014." The latter says it is for "for legacy content
and older Mod Script support." The radio button for the second option is
helpfully selected automatically. Since I want to stick with what I've been
using, I let the button stay checked and launched the game. Unfortunately, that
made some of the buttons in my token action bar inoperable. As an example, while
the token action buttons for my rogue’s shortsword and shortbow continued to
work fine, the button labeled PCAttacks no longer works at all. If I
press it or the Spells button for my wizard, nothing at all appears in the chat. It gets even more confusing if I
select D&D 5E instead of D&D 5E for Roll20 from the dropdown list. I
then get a notice that "content you have selected uses a different sheet
than the one set for your game, so we've enabled both sheets for you." This
presents me with a bewildering set of additional options whose difference from
the choice I've already made is not obvious to me. Selecting any of them
creates the same problem I described above.
What in the world is going on here? I
eventually figured out that what I had to do was change the preselected “D&D
5E by Roll20” in the dropdown list to match the D&D 5E 2014 in the radio
buttons and ignore everything else, but that sure wasn't obvious.
