Thread: Player can't keep module open

March 24th, 2017, 21:25 #11
Update: When joining my game, I noted the same behavior when connected localhost. I open the module (shows a spiderweb on the cover), and it stays open in the data module activation window, but it doesn't show up in the library. When I close the Data Module Activation window and reopen it, the module shows as closed.

Checking the permissions, everyone has full control when I connected locally..not sure about the other player, but they did run FG as an administrator and showed the appropriate .dat file in their player cache.

UPDATE: In comparing file sizes in the cache, the module file is different on all of ours between three players.

Sounds like the module hasn't fully downloaded. This can take a long time depending on connection. Also the cache size might depend on whether the module was opened and what actions the player took - so that might not be significant. Also usually running as admin isn't usually the best solution. It's better to sort out the read/write permissions.

I don't know what permissions would be affecting it at this point. The Everyone user has full control to the Fantasy Grounds folder structure. Spot checking folder permissions and file permissions on child objects in those folders show the Everyone user has full access as well. *scratches head*

Not you the player having the problem.

I repacked the module and it seemed to have worked, though I'm not sure for how long, or why...I'll check with the player to see if they have permissions set to full control.
