Sephral’s File Commander
Tired of navigating through folders and managing files one by one using Foundry's standard file browser?
File Commander gives you a more convenient way to manage your files directly in Foundry VTT. With two panels, keyboard shortcuts and easy file transfers, you can browse, organize and copy your assets without constantly switching between folders.
Highlights
Dual Panel File Browser
Browse two different folders at the same time using a classic dual panel layout. Easily navigate between your asset folders and world files without opening multiple windows.
File and Folder Copying
Copy individual files or entire folders between the two panels. The module asks for confirmation before overwriting existing files, helping you avoid accidental replacements.
Keyboard Shortcuts
Manage your files using familiar keyboard controls. Navigate with the arrow keys, switch panels with Tab and use shortcuts like F3 for previews, F5 for copying and F7 for creating folders.
Easy File Uploads
Upload files directly from your computer into the currently selected folder without having to switch back to Foundry's standard file picker.
Built In File Preview
Preview images and videos directly through Foundry's image viewer or listen to audio files using a simple player before using them in your world.
Quick Path Copying
Copy file paths with Ctrl+C in the format Foundry expects. This makes it easy to use your assets for tokens, tiles, playlists and other content.
Multiple Storage Locations
Access files from User Data, Public folders, S3 storage and The Forge Assets Library through the same interface.
How It Works
Enable the module in your world and open File Commander through the scene controls or module settings.
Choose a folder in each panel and start browsing, copying or uploading files. You can use your mouse or keyboard shortcuts to navigate and manage everything.
Compatibility
Supports Foundry VTT v13 and v14 and works with any game system. The module is available in English and German.
Due to Foundry's restrictions, modules cannot delete, move or rename files during an active game session. File Commander focuses on browsing, copying, uploading and creating folders instead.
