Tokenizer - Creating Advanced Tokens Foundry

Hello adventurers,
In this video, I will be showing you how to use FoundryVTT's Tokenizer module to create tokens in the same style as the ones from the bestiaries. This feature can help you to create a more immersive and professional-looking game.
To get started, you will need to have a basic understanding of FoundryVTT v11, as the Tokenizer module can be a bit complex. Once you have installed the module, you can begin creating your tokens.
Firstly, you will need to select the image that you want to use as your token. The Tokenizer module allows you to use any image file that you have on your computer. Once you have selected your image, you can use the various tools provided by the module to adjust the size, shape, and appearance of the token.
You can also add additional details to the token, such as a name or description, by using the text tool. Once you have finished customizing your token, you can save it and use it in your game.
Overall, the Tokenizer module is a powerful tool that can help you to create customized tokens that match the style of the bestiaries. With a little bit of practice and experimentation, you can create professional-looking tokens that will take your game to the next level.

Do me a favor and subscribe! It really helps to support the channel!

Oh you're a lifesaver, never quite figured out the right buttons to use the mask correctly. Earned a sub!

[@RPKris]

Thank you so much!

Being able to quickly and easily make masks within Foundry?? That's incredible!!

[@RPKris]

When I've made my previous video tackling basically the same thing but without masks editing, and for V10, had put in a feature request on the module to be able to create masks. Cause looking when I've made it, there was a way to create it but you needed to use different tools(ie Photoshop/Gimp), and seeing that it already supported masks, I've thought that there is a possibility to have like a selector for basic shapes and put in said feature request. I did not expected it but 2 days later an update came, and it was this. It was amazing. Apologies for taking so long, but finally got around to make a video about it.

@@RPKris The FoundryVTT community is truly wonderful!

[@RelishedDjums]

Awesome video man! Did you make that frame or is there a blank hidden somewhere in the bestiary tokens?

[@RPKris]

The frame(actually 3 frames and the backgrounds) are in a folder in the bestiary module.

[@Roi007leaf]

Just notice that you change the token frame size which sometimes can be conceived as a different size creature

[@RPKris]

Thank you for the comment, it's more helpful than you think! I've re-watched the video and I think I know what you're referring to, and I am a bit unsure if it was me, or a bug. I've attempted to recreate this locally, and unfortunately, I was able to recreate it, and I think I have figured what causes it, and submitted an bug (issue)request and hopefully it will be shortly fixed.

[@Roi007leaf]

You just need to lock the frame layer so you can't resize it with the mouse wheel, I think you did it to match the image size so it comes out of the top and bottom of the frame. That's the limitation tokenizer has with image size, make it too big and it goes out of the working space you have completely

[@RPKris]

@@Roi007leaf I thought I did that too. I was able to recreate it and submitted a bug as no scroll wheel was involved. Also received a response on the bug request. There's a setting if you create automatic tokens the default setting is set to -35. Which decreases the sizes of tokens by 35%. Thought it was bug, but it was literally a feature which I overlooked. Setting is "Default Token Offset" and by default is at -35.

[@emuemu8428]

Is there a way to handle top down tokens using tokenizer?

[@RPKris]

It should work just fine, and have two different pictures

How to activate the module? I see everyone talking about this but I'm new to Foundry and I have no idea D:

[@RPKris]

You go to `Game settings`, (gearbox at the top right where the chat is), then `Manage Modules` and simply activate or deactivate the modules you would like to use.
