The One Ring - Extension Update

[Hector Trelane]

Valarian, a module design question for this rule set: I've exported a module (campaign images that I'd like to keep organized by keeping it separate from other content) and and can see it and open it in the module window, but once it's opened, it doesn't appear in the library or elsewhere. Can you help--is there a trick with listing categories or something to make it compatible so the base ruleset can "see" it?

Hi Hector,

I am sure you have, but... did you look to see if there was a new category in the normal images window (not in the library)? That’s where they should appear, I think.

Your question prompted me to work out part of the solution, thanks:

• I hadn't been using the index option, highlighted in yellow. When I did so and re-exported, the module appeared properly in the Library window;
• ...but I'm having no luck getting it to appear as a category tab in the Images window (see blue highlighting). I did create one when I exported the module (named "Marsh")
• Perhaps it's a quirk of this version of CoreRPG? See build version circled in green.

Thanks!

I don’t think it uses CoreRPG, it uses foundations core, which is different.

Looks like the images have appeared, though, so that is something.

If you don’t find another way, you could always edit the module and add the category...

Good point. I've given it a shot, added "Marsh" in both of the following code excerpts (where there had previously been no value), but so far this hasn't added a new category tab to the Images window:

definition.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<root version="3.3" release="1">
	<name>TOR FoMarsh Campaign Elements</name>
	<category>Marsh</category>
	<author>Hector Trelane</author>
	<ruleset>fcore-TOR</ruleset>
</root>

First part of db.xml :

	<image>
		<category name="Marsh" baseicon="0" decalicon="0">
			<id-00001>
				<image type="image">
					<bitmap>Portrait--Beldan.jpg</bitmap>
				</image>
				<name type="string">Portrait--Beldan</name>
				<toggle_mapinfo type="number">0</toggle_mapinfo>
				<toolbars type="number">0</toolbars>
			</id-00001>
			<id-00002>

This same scenario is on again for FG-Con 15! Sign up here if you want to give these rules or this ruleset a try--or come back to it after a long hiatus. NB that 2e TOR is coming out soon, so it's a good time to get back into the TOR swing of things!

I'm slowly updating the ruleset to CoreRPG in preparation for 2nd edition. The character sheet is in. Now need to do the NPC sheet and combat tracker.

Now that's fantastic news! Btw my complements on how well the NPC sheets work in this ruleset--a thing of beauty. Same goes for how well you've integrated all the mechanics on the PC sheet.
