Hi everyone,

I'm releasing a new update to R20Converter. This one isn't just bugfixes, it has one nice feature I've been meaning to do for a long time, so I've bumped the version number to 0.13.x

In this release, there's a new option under Advanced Settings, which lets you deduplicate your image files. This means that instead of having your character's portraits and tokens in a hierarchy of folder that closely matches the journal, all assets are stored in a single folder with programmatically generated filenames that allow us to deduplicate most of those images. This is particularly useful if you have a scene with 10 tokens of the same monster, they'll all point to the same file, instead of a unique copy for each. This will both decrease how much data is used for your world, but also make it more convenient to update a token's image and have all tokens of the same monster get updated at once.

There's also a big change to how files are retrieved from the zip generated by R20Exporter, which fixes a long standing issue of webm files not being animated in Foundry. That will require a new release of R20Exporter which I'll do soon (waiting for this release to be out in the wild first).

As usual, there's also the few small bugfixes to handle unusual use cases from Roll20 as well as Foundry v11.

Thanks again everyone for your support, and enjoy this new release!
