Advanced Character XML Creator

**Doswelk** · August 13th, 2005, 20:11

Hello,

Second post and a tool that might be found useful....

I have spent all day writing a VB.Net application to create an XML file for an advanced character.

It's not the most friendly of layouts I suspect but any way it will save me having to do all the tables by hand.

If any one is interested let me know and I will e-mail it to you, better yet if someone wants to host it let me know and I shall send it over.

Sounds interesting!

Thanks for sharing.

I have just uploaded version 1.1 of my .xml file creator. (it is currently awaiting approval)

This version lets you create either advanced or Prestige Modern classes, and also has a Features section.

The format is based on the advanced character format in the D20 Modern Ruleset.

You cannot create a table in the features section (I can't work out how to implement that).

When copying from a pdf it may have the same problem that the word macro did with quotes, I think I have resolved " ' " now.

It’s a bit rough, but I think it’s still a bit easier than creating those class tables by hand.

It also includes some very basic instructions

This replaces the file uploaded by richvalle (thanks for that!)

Any chance that we could get this in a core d20 format?

Is there any way that I can help and or look into having one for the NPC format?

Let me know.

I have not been able to test it with Fantasy grounds but the xml file matches the output for Allan in the example campaign, so should work. :|

This rocks! Looks like it is doing well, there is only one little minor bug <Squeek!>

When I use the node feature, when I go into my XML editor, the "" are missing from the code. it should read:

<node="00001">

where it reads

<node=00001>

well, not exactly written like so, but you get the idea.

Fantastic work!

I am a decent writer, but the coding is still pretty new to me!

You rock!

This looks amazing, without having tried to implement into FG.

Good job, these tools make FG module creation a delight.
