Setting up concurrent games on different versions

Hi, I’m wondering what may be the best way to go about this. I have separate games that have to be run at the same time, and two foundry licenses.

One is Lancer that is ran on Foundry v12,
The other is Starfinder 2e that is ran on v13.

I’m trying to see how to have modules for each version downloaded and set up (with potentially the same module being used on different versions such as Bar Brawl), and each game running at once. Or if I’ll need instead two forge accounts to get this working.

Hey there.

This is a fairly common question with somewhat complicated answer.

In short, it is possible to do what your asking, but to do it reliably, you need to be on the Story Teller tier, which you are, and to have Game Manager enabled, which provides the feature to set your world to a particular Foundry version.

To make this work you need to be aware not to use any of the same modules across both systems, as Forge gives you access to version of the modules for all worlds and so the modules would need to updated/downgraded to match the Foundry version each time they are used.

So all in all, it is possible, but you need to be very careful when updating.

I’d also like to add that, due to popular demand, new features are being worked on to make this much easier. Feature release is still TBD though, so stay tuned for updates!
