Just to make sure: In addition to copying the .ext file into the right place, did you also select the "DCC Gongfarmer Generator" radio button in the Extensions list when you created or loaded your campaign? See the screenshot below.

Sometimes, it's the little things! Like my grandpa was always yelling at me "If that was a snake it woulda done bit ya!"

That's what it was, missed the extension option at startup. Thanks for the quick response! Now I can get back to making lvl 0s, but much more efficiently!

The location depends on your operating system, but the easiest way to find it is to open the FG launcher. At the top left, you should see a folder icon (see screenshot below). Clicking that should open up that folder in Windows Explorer, Finder (Mac), etc. That's your FG data directory, which in turn should have subfolders for "campaigns", "extensions", "modules", "rulesets", etc. - so go to the "extensions" subfolder, or create one if it doesn't exist yet.

Hey so your rando names are all Welsh.... I didn't know this and I found a group of 6 Brits (3 of them Welsh) to play. I apparently had guys with girl names and likewise! Was rather funny! Great extension for DCC.

That's awesome! :)

Indeed: I sourced the random names from these two lists of Cornish and Welsh names. I can't quite say why, but somehow these felt the most DCC to me. :)

Is anyone else getting errors using this extension? Not sure if it's related to any of the recent ruleset updates or not, but I get:
[ERROR] Script execution error: [string "scripts/chargen.lua"]:97: attempt to call field 'calcItemArmorClass' (a nil value)

Yes, getting the same error. Though it still seems to create the character sheet, but does not generate a name.
