Hi Laerun. I was also thinking about making some sort of demo but unfortunately, I can't speak very well (nerve damage). You can use anything in the guide freely, though.
I will try to make a solo play (TTS or AI Voice) by using methods described here, you can also use it freely when it's done.
EDIT: But what I can do is I can make my Solo Adventure with AI Voice from the topics you want to showcase!Last edited by Tempered7; August 19th, 2024 at 18:16.

UPDATE: JimSocks' excellent content creator 2020 is working fine in my new campaign. Bad news is, I borked the old campaign where I'm writing the topics. *facepalm*
UPDATE 2: Unfortunately, I won't be able to make a template with other modules. Because of copyrights.
Added to PLOT Twists: I finally found the source of this, but the usage is older than the video and I also use Red Herrings. Of course, with GreatGM's explanations it's way more enlightening. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwZKD1AWIYMIf you want to solo your way through FGU, I write about Solo RPG methods and reviews in my All Things Solo blog.

Added to Hex Crawl Resources: Laerun's Solo Player Hexploration with ChatGPT: https://chatgpt.com/g/g-vIDKY931L-solo-hexploration
It is a free (ChatGPT) resource by Laerun to flesh out your hex-crawl maps.

EDIT: You can play hex crawling with it, too. Use it as an Oracle and ask the AI questions as you would normally with an Oracle module.
BUT there is a limit for ChatGPT and when you reach it, it asks you to get Plus.Last edited by Tempered7; August 20th, 2024 at 12:52.

ADDED to Exploration Part II > Line of Sight: The way to darken maps and remove map vision for immersion and surprise.
Check https://youtu.be/verTvYTUGyA?si=x80YsIAXA3yOvRoO&t=134 to learn how to add dynamic lightning if your map doesn't have it.
GM LAYER EDIT: It gets better! I found this GM Layer invisibility option for Solo Play. Just turn it on / off as needed. Old or imported maps might not have it though.

Loot all / Never touch a dead enemy's pockets
Always walk with a drawn weapon / Only draw the weapon if necessary
Marching order (there is an option for this built in FGU)
Party torch carrier / Rely on nightvision
Combat:

Ranged first -> Then melee
