Introduction
More often than not, if Foundry VTT (on The Forge, or elsewhere) is running slowly, it is usually the fault of module issues (whether a module issue by itself, a module conflicting with another, etc.). This article is intended to give you the tools to find issues with the modules you use so that you can go about running your games, and not worry about fighting the software.
Performing a Module Audit
- First, confirm that there is a module issue by enabling safe configuration for the world. If this fixes the issues in your game, it is likely a module or module conflict at fault.
- Install the Quick Module Enable module.
This can be done via the Foundry VTT Setup, or via The Bazaar (https://forge-vtt.com/bazaar#type=module&package=quick-module-enable) - Enable the Module:
- Navigate once again to “Module Management”. You will see new sections inside. We will focus on the
Major Mismatchsection.
- Click on the “Major Mismatch” section
- Check for any major mismatches, and disable them one by one. If disabling a module fixes the issue, you will have found the culprit.
I’ve cleaned up my “Major Mismatch” but am still having issues
- Start taking a look at the “Minor Mismatch” section as well
- Head over to The Forge Discord (The Forge) and hit us up for help in the #forge-support channel
