How does HEro Forge model importing work?
I saw the trailer and I thought it was an interesting feature

It's in this part of the custom import video:

Ah, there's a video, I'll watch it, thanks.
I guess you need to actually buy the model from them, right? Then this program supports their model file type.

Correct. Just be sure to get the "digital download" which is the last option. The STL will not work and even if you turned it into an obj (the other file type you can use in TRPGE) it would have no color. The video goes over pretty much everything you need to know about imports of all different types.

Amazing! Thanks a lot! Hero Forge seems to be a great tool, and to make static minis, Hero Forge looks really cool

It is. And if you want more than 2 minis, a subscription is much cheaper than buying them individually. 5 credits per month and you can use one credit for a mini or buy an entire pack of their monthly releases.

Interesting, I didn't know that. It's a bit of a big price for my country but I'll keep it in mind, thanks :)

Is this working for anyone else? The only option for HeroForge custom assets I get is "Glow"

Although, I don't seem to have the ability to import images for any of the other custom items either...Anyone else see this, or have any thoughts on it?

What exactly are you having issues with, Pantless? Are the HF minis importing but don't glow even though you created them with a glow? All the image importing is working on my end. Are you on the demo, as that has some limitations vs full game.

Hey Jector, this actually started working a bit ago. I'm not sure if it was user error, or related to the update I received earlier today, but it is functioning now.

All of the custom objects (HeroForge or anything that required importing) had no option to import the required file. In build mode the frame which you manipulate the object was empty, including missing things such as the values for the object's XYZ, and in play mode the only available option was to set it to glow.

Either way, all seems to be functioning now. I'm confused at the cause, but happy it is.
