    Fantasy grounds cloud storage?

    My hard-drive recently crashed and I had to reinstall all of my programs, including Fantasy Grounds. I copied all of the data from my previous hard-drive to my new one but I was dismayed to find that my campaign failed to appear when I loaded up the program. Is there another place that Fantasy Grounds stores campaigns besides the Appdata folder?

    That's the only place FG stores it's campaign data. You will need to copy all of the directories from <FG app data>\campaigns on your old hard drive to the <FG app data>\campaigns directory on your new hard drive. Make sure it's going to the correct place - click the folder icon in the top left of the main FG startup screen to get to <FG app data>. After you've copied your files, restart FG.

    If you're still not seeing your campaigns, please provide a screenshot of file explorer showing <FG app data>\campaigns and also a screenshot of <FG app data>\campaigns\<the campaign you want to load>. Before taking the screenshots, change the view to details so we can see file dates and sizes.

    So please ignore the Tales of the Sword Coast campaign in there already as it was a new campaign that I created as a result of me not finding the original in the folder.

    As Trenloe says you'll need to copy the contents of your campaigns folder from your old hard drive and paste into the same location (the one in your screenshot) in the new drive. There's no campaigns in the location in your screenshot apart from the ones you have created.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    Is your older computer old enough that that data files are stored in a folder that is in SmiteWorks//Fantasy Grounds//? If so, then try changing that to part to SmiteWorks//Fantasy Grounds Unity//.

    I was able to find it. Thank you all for the help!
