HelpUsing Dungeon Flow with Foundry VTT

Using Dungeon Flow with Foundry VTT

The native Foundry module is the supported way to bring Dungeon Flow dungeons into Foundry VTT.

Using Dungeon Flow with Foundry VTT

The native Dungeon Flow Foundry module is the supported path, giving you pairing, import, notes, lights, and re-import directly inside Foundry. The older manual zip export workflow has been retired.

Before You Start

  • The module supports Foundry VTT v13 and v14.
  • Direct import requires Dungeon Flow Pro.

Use the Native Module

  1. Open the Foundry install page at dungeonflow.app/foundry.
  2. Install the Dungeon Flow module from the manifest URL.
  3. Enable the module in your world and open it from the Scenes sidebar.
  4. Approve the connection in your browser.
  5. Import or re-import your saved dungeon from inside Foundry.

Imported Lighting

Lit brazier and torch props create neutral Ambient Lights at their flame positions. Each light has a 20-foot bright radius and a 40-foot dim radius, is constrained by imported walls, and is active throughout the normal scene-darkness range. Dungeon Flow leaves color and animation disabled because the exported map image already contains the prop's artistic glow.

Re-import refreshes the imported light collection from the current Dungeon Flow props. Manually added Foundry lights are not currently preserved, so add them after your final re-import. Scaling a prop moves its flame origin with the artwork but does not change its gameplay light range.

If Players See a Black Screen

Foundry scenes can still be dark when a dungeon has no lit brazier or torch props, or when player tokens do not have vision. Fix it with one of the following:

  • Enable Global Illumination in the scene configuration.
  • Add light sources on the Lighting layer.
  • Confirm token vision (for example, darkvision or a light source). Imported Dungeon Flow lights illuminate the scene but do not provide vision themselves.

Extra Tips

  • The module keeps imported scenes linked to their Dungeon Flow source dungeon.
  • Re-import updates the existing Dungeon Flow-managed scene instead of creating a duplicate.
  • The module also brings over Dungeon Flow room and corridor notes.
