DnD 4e Offline Character Builder to Fantasy Grounds Converter

[SieferSeesSomething]

It's located here for now.


Hey everyone,

I've been working on a little practice project. Inspired by the Beyond to FG converter, this converts files from the offline DnD 4e character builder into formatted files you can import into Fantasy Grounds Unity.

Right now I just put it in that site I linked above, but if people are interested in it, maybe I'll host it somewhere else where I can give it a more custom domain name. I'll update the url if it changes. Not sure how much it'll be used, so aiming for cheap for now if people have hosting suggestions (right now it's free on python anywhere lol).

The site isn't much yet, so just let me know on here or the FG forums if you notice any bugs, data missing from the output XML, etc.

Next up is probably to make an offline tool people can use in case i ever forget to keep this site updated, but hopefully someone else finds a use for this until then.

Getting "Internal Server Error" from it when I try uploading. Definitely something my group would be interested in, though!

Oh hey, that's awesome that somebody else is interested. Sorry about that, it's still under construction and I've kind of been half-assing keeping the hosted site updated with what I have on my local. But now that I know at least one other person might get a use out of it, I'll try to keep it more reliably updated lol.

Can you try to do it again and let me know if you get the same issue? Thanks!

Still getting an Internal Server Error (500). Tried on both firefox and edge, if that matters.

Ah, guess there's some issues I didn't catch because I only tested with my own character lol. Found a difference that I didn't compensate for. I think I fixed that particular one you ran into at least, so try it again when you can, and hopefully it doesn't bug out again on a different field. Sorry you have to be my first tester (who isn't me) right now, but you're also helping me and others who may use it in the future, so I really appreciate it!

If it does break again, or if it works this time but you notice any fields missing from your imported character, can you send me the file you're trying to convert in this thread or a DM (or I'll send you my email through a DM)?
