Forgotten Realms

Post by YmerejO42 »

OK, I'm gonna admit that I'm stumped. I copied the 'dnd4e-phb2.rpgame' file that I have on my computer, and named it 'dnd4e-frpg.rpgame'. Unzipped it into a folder of the same name, then went into the 'properties.xml' file as well as all the others and changed the <source>Player's Handbook 2</source> to <source>Forgotten Realms Player's Guide</source>.

I then deleted all the race, feat, class and so forth info from the files, so that all that I had was the basic framework at the beginning of each file that tells you how each one should be filled out. I then entered the basic info for the races from the Forgotten Realms Player's Guide, including racial powers. As far as I can tell, I made no typos and entered everything correctly. The problem is, I can't get CharTool 1.0.b12 to recognize the file. Every time I try to use it, it says "This selected file is not a valid settings file:"

I'm including the file as I've edited it, renamed to dnd4e-frpg.zip because the board won't let me attach a .rpgame file, hopefully someone can find the problem and help me with this. It's mildly urgent, because I'm running a game in two days (Thursday) and one of my players wants a Windsoul Genasi, which is why I'm trying to get this working. Thanks to anyone who's willing and/or able to help!

You are most welcome, and I hope that you can figure out what's wrong, because I have no idea.

This is a bug in my code. I don't validate the files from RPTools but I do validate the ones entered on the Game Selection Dialog. That validation code was broken for game source files. It'll be fixed in the next build.

OK, so my files were right? Whew, that's a relief. I thought that I was going crazy, because I couldn't find anything wrong. Thanks, and I'm glad that I've helped by finding this.
