Forgotten Adventures - Introducing FA Studio
infoAbout This Title
Today we’re releasing the first public beta of FA Studio (v0.5.1), a free desktop app that brings our Assets and Tokens libraries together in one place.
Browse our catalog of 165,000+ assets and 1,600+ tokens without downloading the whole library first. Search for what you need, preview the artwork, and drag or copy it straight into the tools you use to make maps. You can also download full libraries to your own drive and use the files offline.
FA Studio is free for everyone, with no account needed to get started. Patrons can connect their Patreon account to unlock the Premium libraries, and eligible tiers can keep their downloaded libraries automatically up to date.
Download FA StudioWindows (64-bit): [Download link]
macOS: [Apple Silicon] · [Intel]
Linux: [AppImage] · [.deb]
This beta isn’t code-signed yet, so your system may show a security warning when you first open it. Installation notes are below.
Find what you needThe Assets and Tokens galleries bring our releases together in folders organized by biome and category, from Core Settlements to the Underdark.
Search across the whole library, sort by newest to find recent releases, and adjust thumbnail sizes to suit your screen. For more specific searches, combine terms with AND, OR and NOT, or put an exact phrase in quotes.
Assets show their grid footprint, such as 2×2 or 3×1, and tokens show their size and scale. Token color variants are grouped together to keep the gallery easy to browse, with an All colors option when you want to see every variant.
Get a closer lookHover over an item for a larger preview, or right-click to keep the preview open. Pinned token previews also show the available color variants.
If you prefer a quieter gallery, you can set previews to right-click only or turn them off.
Use it in your own toolsDrag an asset—or a whole selection—straight into Clip Studio Paint, Photoshop, or another app that accepts image files. Studio downloads cloud items for you as you drag.
You can also copy the image under your cursor with Ctrl+C on Windows/Linux or Cmd+C on macOS, just like “Copy image” in a browser.
Keep your libraries on your own driveThe Download Manager lets you download the full Assets and Tokens libraries in WebP or PNG, into a folder you choose. These are ordinary files and folders, ready to use in your own programs.
You can:
Check for updates when you want the latest releases.
Pause and resume large downloads.
Verify a library to check its files and repair anything missing or damaged.
Enable Auto Update on eligible tiers to keep your libraries current in the background, including new releases and repairs.
Studio can run in your system tray and start with your computer, so library updates can continue in the background. It also checks for new versions of the app and prompts you when an update is available.
Your downloaded files remain usable offline. If your membership lapses, they stay on your drive and keep working. You only need active Premium access again to download new Premium files or updates.
Free for everyone, more for patronsWithout signing in, you can browse the entire catalog, preview and use items from the free libraries, and download the full free Assets and Tokens libraries. Premium items appear in the galleries with a lock.
To unlock Premium content, click Connect Patreon in the bottom-right corner of Studio and sign in through your browser. Studio picks up your membership automatically.
The upcoming Premium monthly tier will include Premium library access, and Pro will also include Auto Update. These tiers are coming at the end of October, as explained in our upcoming Patreon changes post.
What happens to pCloud?We’ll continue updating the pCloud libraries while FA Studio is in beta, so you can switch whenever you’re ready.
Dungeondraft packs and Token Clip files aren’t available in Studio yet. We’re working on bringing them into the Download Manager, with Auto Update of their own.
Installing the betaOn Windows, the installer lets you choose where Studio is installed. Uninstalling Studio keeps your downloaded libraries unless you select the option to delete them.
Because this beta isn’t code-signed yet:
Windows: If SmartScreen appears, click More info, then Run anyway.
macOS: If the app is blocked, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway.macOS: If you see “FA Studio.app is damaged and can’t be opened”, copy Studio into your Applications folder, then open Terminal and run:`xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/FA Studio.app"`Then open Studio normally. This removes the quarantine flag from FA Studio only. Use this workaround with the app downloaded from our official links.
For the Linux AppImage, make the file executable before running it, either through its file properties or with chmod +x.
Help us shape StudioThis is our first public beta, so there will be some rough edges. macOS and Linux have had limited testing so far, and we’d especially appreciate feedback from anyone using either.
Tell us what works well, what feels confusing, and what would make Studio more useful to you. If you run into a bug, please include your operating system, Studio version, and the steps that led to it.
Share feedback or report a bug on our Discord.
What’s next?Here are some of the things we’re working towards:
Save searches and filters as bookmarks.
Keep Studio on top of other windows.
Open additional library windows.
Download and automatically update Dungeondraft packs and Token Clip files.
Browse and download our battlemaps.
Make your own tokens through Token Maker integration.
Browse your own asset folders alongside the FA libraries.
Thank you to our patrons for making FA Studio possible, and to everyone giving this beta a try. We’re looking forward to seeing how you use it and hearing what you think.
