Okay, so I'm new to CharTool.
I've created several token properties that I would like to retain outside of the campaign -- and so that they will update as things change within the game, and I understand CharTool is the way to accomplish this.
But how do I link the properties in MT with CT? So very lost...
Where to begin?
Re: Where to begin?
I am with this guy. I dl'd the latest build of each and bueno por nada. So then I got the biggest of each and still got the 'unexpected error has occurred' when I try to open a .rptok I created in CT in MT. Then when I tried to reopen it in CT same thing. Is there something I am missing? Is rptools just too complicated for an idiot to use? Is there a known compatible build copy of each that I might considered stable?
Re: Where to begin?
The properties in CT and MT are linked by a game settings file. There are instructions on how to edit one in this forum, but you have to do it by hand. If you are just going to use a small number of properties in MT then it is best to define them there and define macros to edit them.pwcroft wrote:Okay, so I'm new to CharTool.

Could you attach the file you're having problems with? What game settings file are you using?Tuzon wrote:I am with this guy. I dl'd the latest build of each and bueno por nada.

Re: Where to begin?
In the content.xml file it is calling out powers that the properties file does not have. So it is looking for macro buttons that do not exist.
Re: Where to begin?
I took a look at your file and found the problem. It appears that the code that wrote the XML messed them up some how. The label for the macro is contained in the wrong element and a bunch of other properties are missing. The problem is how to recreate it so I can fix it. I tried making a new character with my latest code and it worked. I also tried making a new character with the b13 build and it worked. I did have some problems with older versions of the tool, but I don't remember having your file's specific problem. Which version of CT did you use to create the .rptok file?Tuzon wrote:XP home
