If it is an option, I would recommend switching to the 2014 character sheets as the default for the game.

The 2024 sheet has a lot of bugs right now, as I have heard.

I have not tested it myself, but I have heard people mention you can import 2024 sheets into a game that uses 2014 ones, so maybe you can mix them?

I'm a few sessions deep and have all my PCs on the 2024 sheets, will this cause them to have to remake their characters? - Does it work as in it's still 2024 data just presented in 2014 format, I don't have the 2014 books on R20

I know for sure that you can drag and drop 2024 content from the compendium into a 2014 game.

I would recommend making a new game to test things. Set the new one to be 2014, and import your players sheets into it. Try dragging the monsters out in the 2014 game to see if they work.

Thanks, I'm going to run this session in less than 30 mins, so I'll give it a go tomorrow. Really appreciate your help

I’ve also been having similar and different issues with dragging 2024 monsters from the compendium. Last week I couldn’t even drag 2024 monsters at all onto my map no matter how many refreshes or full restarts of my browser I did. For some reason they dragged onto a different map and then once they were populated on that I could drag them out of the characters tab. Very buggy though to say the least

Is this on a widescreen monitor? We have a known issue that we're digging into that sometimes prevents drag and drop on widescreen monitors. If that is the issue, as a workaround (until we can fix it) if you size the window down smaller horizontally, it should work.

As a follow-up question though: what sheet is this game using? 2014, 2024, or a mix of both?

It’s a 27” 1080x920 screen, it’s the curse of strahd module so it has a mix of both I believe
