CSV Table Importer MK

[roninkelt]

I think I may have figured it out - I was using an older version of the 5e several other rulesets. Apparently, FG prefers the unzipped rulesets over the .pak files. There were several unzipped in my ruleset directory from experimenting with extensions. Removed these and all is well now.

Thanks, that saves me some awful editing. Unfortunately this does not work with the Worldbuilder. Solved it by using a link to a story. So I'm good for now. Mainly posting this so others don't have to find out this doesn't work.

Good day, just installed your program today, and Im getting an error when I attempt to import a file.
I watched your video a couple of times and followed along. I actually went as far as saving my text file as a CSV, then opening with notpad ++ and copied that info and tried to import as a table.
I get the following error:
[5/22/2021 9:33:31 PM] [ERROR] Script execution error: [string "mkcsv_button_convert"]:3: ERROR: Invalid CSV field - near character 33 in this line of the CSV file:
"JAC KILL (YOSHI): -EVERYTHING-"

Is there a limit to the amount of text you can have?

I am trying to do this impart with Javins Action Chat Bubbles by creating a series of auto roll tables that will launch when players do certain things like casting specific spells or in this case when Yoshi KILLS something.

On your post, at the bottom click Go Advanced, then there should be a button to manage attachments. then you can upload your zip file and attach it to the message.

Ok, here are the 2 files I basically used for my test.

The intent is to develop a series of files that can be easily imported in for use with this extension.

I'm a little confused, those are not CSV files. There isnt a single comma in them. Its just a text file with one quote per line. If you are trying to import these into a rollable table, you can do that already with the built in import functions. No need for this extension at all. This is mostly useful for importing grid tables within story entries and such.

you can import you stuff super easy with the built in importer.

Ok, I will give that a shot. I was just trying to do it like what the author showed in his video and suggested your extension.
