Official Website Early Registration Open
Hello Patrons! I'm excited to share that user registration is now available on the official website at https://foundryvtt.com/auth/register/
Registering a user account will be required in order to purchase the software so that the issued license can be linked and associated to your account identity.
Important Note: In order to give Patreon supporters the first shot at securing their preferred user name, you will need to supply a User Registration Code to complete the process. Use the code ROLL_INITIATIVE to proceed with early Patreon registration.
You will be able to link your account to Patreon, either right away during the registration process or later from your user profile page. Linking your account to Patreon will be required in order for you to claim your Patreon Discount on a software license purchase (more details on that are forthcoming).
To link your account with Patreon when you register, click the large Patreon button at the top of the registration form, shown below.
If you wait until after registration to link your Patreon account, you can do so by visiting your user profile (click your name in orange at the top-right after logging in). On the "Edit Profile" screen there is a section at the bottom to manage linked accounts.
If you have linked your Patreon account you will receive some exclusive profile badges which celebrate your contribution to the project during it's early development period.
Furthermore, the longer term vision for the official website includes growing to support some social features which can help with game formation and community networking. Please understand that expansions in that area will not be happening in the near term and will be prioritized in response to community demand and feedback.
Additional Notes
If you experience any difficulties with the reCAPTCHA verification (I'm using the new reCAPTCHA v3 which does not require a challenge+response) - try temporarily disabling any browser extensions which might obscure your browser user agent. If this becomes a persistent problem for people I will likely revert back to a reCAPTCHA v2 with an image-based challenge.
If you have any feedback on the user registration or management workflows I would be happy to receive them. You can even help test out the website Contact Us form to submit your feedback: https://foundryvtt.com/contact-us/

Hello i don't have the code (code init) I find despite my subscription.
Apart from the captcha, I noticed a behaviour, which could be confusing: 1. I entered all my info in the registration form 2. Then, before clicking the Register Account button, I validated the cookies acceptance button (yeah, I know...) 3. The page then reloaded as if the form had been submitted, but it hadn't...took me some seconds to realize what was going on No big deal but if a small patch could solve this, it could help people (as dumb as me) not to fail in their registration process ;) Anyway, great work on this product so far, guys...cannot wait for tomorrow!
Hmm, good feedback thanks. I wonder if anyone else has experienced that. I'll see if I can reproduce it
Nice
Signed up and I will order the Moment it becomes available. I decided to give it a Try via Patreon and you managed to get just about the greatest VTT out there with one of the greatest communities. Within 24 hours I had my Foundry running in a VM on my Unraid including the use of one of my personal domain names. Every question along the way was really quickly answered. Keep up the great work.
Love to hear feedback like this, thank you Sven!
Done! Really excited and happy for you, Atropos! I got two cool badges! :D
worked like a charm
Registered and good to go, so excited!
Hey yall, I'm having trouble seeing the captcha. I've tried both Firefox and Chrome, as well as disabling all my extensions in both, but nothing shows up for captcha on the registration page. Anyone have an idea?
There isn't an actualy captcha challenge (I'm trying out the reCAPTCHA v3) - did you try temporarily disabling any privacy blocking extensions as explained in my "Additional Notes" section of the post?
I came to this a few months ago, not an early patron but this was and is one of my most rewarding patronages. Top notch communication, frequent updates, transparency, overall 5* my good sir. It's no wonder this is a hit and I hope very soon, it'll grow to support your work even more. Kudos and keep up the awesome work
Thanks Paulo!
Signed up and linked. Worked great on phone using Brave as browser. :)
Awesome, I've been very pleased with how the registration has been handled so far. Over 700 user registrations in a short period of time and things seem to have gone pretty smoothly :)
