    5e Module Updates

    A huge number of fixes and updates were made across all modules and issued with the v 3.2 update of Fantasy Grounds; too many to list here. Going forward it is hoped that updates will be more frequent and this thread will contain details of any updates so that users have a clearer idea of what has been fixed or changed in any particular module. General changes to the Fantasy Grounds engine or the 5e ruleset won't be noted here. These can be found in the patch notes here.

    If you come across any errors in a module please report these in the bugs thread.
