Which game settings are you loading? I think that the monster list only works with the 1.1 D&D settings IIRC.

I am sorry that you are having so many problems with Init Tool. I have some questions for you to see if we can figure out what the problem is. What version of IT are you running? Which game settings file are you using? What OS are you running on? What version of Java are you using (java -v is the command to figure this out). When you open the Lookup dialog do you see any images in the Token column. Not all of the combatants have images so you may have to scroll to see some. When you selected the combatant did you just click on the row so that it was highlighted or did you click on the Select column so that a check mark was next to the row? Was it locking when you hit OK on the lookup dialog or was it locking up when you hit OK on the add combatant dialog? Did the screen repaint properly? Can you turn on the console and see if there are any exceptions reported?

Thanks for your help!

Was it locking when you hit OK on the lookup dialog or was it locking up when you hit OK on the add combatant dialog?

To turn on the console open the Windows Control Panel and then look for the Java icon and open it. On the window that pops up click the Advanced tag. Open the setting that is called Java Console and then make sure the Show console option is selected. This only works if you started IT from the RPTools website.

What I mean by the screen not repainting properly is that the dialog only looks like it is showing some of the data that it should be. There will be things like partially displayed rows in the table or only some of the rows are displayed while others are not even though they should be there.
