Which animated video format do you use?
🕑 Added 2023-12-04 07:03:42 +0000 UTCHey everyone! This is just a quick poll for our $10 supporters.
For those of you who use our animated maps, which of the 4 files do you use?
We've been looking at the quality of the FHD files zoomed in and we think it might be worth removing those and only releasing the 4k versions. This will help us cut down on rendering and upload time.
Let us know which of the files you use most in the poll below. :)
Thanks as ever for being patrons!

What VTT are you using?
Ryan Rogers
I'm not sure how this could be done from my perspective. I need both orientations, and I use the smaller size probably 1/3 of the time, and the larger size 2/3 of the time. In fact, I have literally swapped mid-session from the later to the former when people were having issues. As a Pro DM, we don't control or know what we'll be getting for client capabilities. My approach is this: hope for the best, prepare for the worst. In FVTT, I have two versions of every scene, the "HQ" one (which is prepared first), and then another which is duplicated form it, with far less lightning, less granular walls (where needed), and lighter/weaker/missing animation, lower resolution backgrounds, etc. Then, at game time, if people are having problems with the former, I switch to the later. Or, as is more often the case, I know by the people in the session which I need to activate, 'cause I have by then identified the one with the Hamster in their i3 2nd generation running a 760 GT is gonna have a heart attack if I load the HQ. :-P

I wish I could use animated maps at all, but half my players experience millions of errors every time I try, beginning with the scene just never loading for them. To be clear, that's because of their hardware/connectivity, not the maps/video files you provide, I love them.
