Forge item: Pathbuilder Importer

[ThirdSign]

I tried importing a character from PB2 that used the Shoony ancestry into FG, with the correct FG Module loaded (Extinction Curse AP 3 Player's Resource) but it didn't copy over the Shoony ancestry nor the Amnesiac background (with the Advanced Player Guide source loaded).

Any advice?

Just letting you know I've seen this, and I'll be taking a look tonight. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

If you could provide the JSON you imported, that would help too.

I just published an update that fixes this.

Aaand I just published another version that should fix a similar problem with backgrounds, classes, items, spells, feats, and lookup data

A friend just caused this error in my host console.

The JSON they pasted or file they selected wasn't JSON. Looks like it was HTML from what the error is saying.

I'll update the extension to include an error message in the UI for that.

Pushed update 0.6

If the import completely fails due to the invalid JSON, an error dialog will show telling you so
Fixed an issue where after a successful import on the client, ownership wouldn't be set, and the console would appear on the host


---

Pushed 0.7 which fixes a bug I introduced in 0.6

Sorry, got busy but it looks like things are good.

Just for reference, the JSON is:

Pathbuilder had an update:
"Some JSON export improvements"

I'm unsure if this changed anything, just wanted to let you know.

Looks like he added a link to pathmuncher for foundry and added additional ancestry information to the export. Shouldn't effect the importer, but I'll test it this evening after work.

So I tried the importer last night for the first time properly and some issues:

The character Tracker doesn't get populated properly. This leads to inflated ability scores when you try to put that in later. I like having this all filled out to see at a glance where all ability bonuses were spent.
Backgrounds also don't seem to populate in general and I've had a few issues with the Champion, where additional devotion (focus) spells from feats like Deity's Domain wouldn't be added, nor some choices made from the class features, like the Champion's Cause, or the Divine Ally. Also, all Feats seem to be added as level 1 instead of the level they had been chosen.
Also not sure why but it randomly added a Bottled Sunlight to the character I was importing instead of a Steel Shield.

Here's a screenshot of some of the issues: pbimport.jpg

The imported JSON was the following:
