🎬 Storyteller's Cinema
Transform your Foundry VTT battlemaps into an immersive 2.5D Visual Novel experience.
This module is designed for roleplay-heavy scenes, "Theater of the Mind" moments, and dramatic storytelling. It automatically converts your top-down tokens into upright "Standees" (Paper Mario style) that react to the scene's depth.
Core Features
- 2.5D Standee Effect: Tokens stand upright (rotation locked to 0) and automatically flip horizontally when moving left/right. No more spinning top-down tokens!
- Dynamic Depth Scaling: Tokens automatically scale down as they move "up" the screen (into the background) and scale up as they move "down" (into the foreground), creating a fake 3D perspective without any 3D setup.
- Cinematic Overlay: Adds dramatic "black bars" (letterboxing) to frame the scene. The overlay sits intelligently above the map but below the UI, ensuring you never lose access to your buttons.
- Smart Ghost Mode: Tokens automatically gain unconstrained movement (Ghost Mode) when entering Cinematic Mode, allowing them to walk through walls for dramatic positioning. They return to physical constraints when the scene ends.
- Cinematic Overlay: Adds dramatic borders (letterboxing) to frame the scene. The overlay sits intelligently above the map but **below** the UI buttons.
V13 Ready:Built with the latest Foundry architecture (ApplicationV2) for maximum performance and stability.
