Howdy, y'all! Meredith from Community!
We have a very exciting update from our developer, Nick, on the VTT Team! 🎊
One of the best things about building games for your players is
finding the right images to help convey the scene. Thankfully, we have
hundreds of art packs available on the Marketplace, from some of your
favorite publishers, plus thousands of independent creators. You get to
build your own campaigns, set up battles (small or major!), and create
wonderful visuals to accompany the stories you weave.
However, we know that if you have a lot of content in your
library, searching for, well, pretty much anything can be agonizingly
slow… or in the worst cases, just not pull up any results at all. This
is incredibly frustrating, especially if you’re looking to set something
up quickly for tonight’s game.
Thankfully, this problem may be a thing of the past. Nick has
officially released a solution to all users on the platform that should
alleviate the stress on library search, regardless of how many art packs
you own..
Art Library Search is now 70% FASTER.
Before today, it took 20 seconds or longer (sometimes resulting in a search failure) to look through your art packs. Today, that number has dropped by 70% or more - most search queries take less than 5 seconds now.
As always, please let us know if you run into any challenges with
this new release. Otherwise, enjoy this lovely quality-of-life update,
and we hope you’ll find more joy in getting your games set up quicker!

and finishes before the previous search on the left even gets through
the first step.
