Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
There must be a step you are missing. I've been using this feature since it was possible to. It's a little overdue, but I think I will create a tutorial video for people to reference. Stay tuned.

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
I have created a video tutorial which demonstrates the process of exporting characters from GCA and then importing them into Fantasy Grounds. I hope this helps.

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
The importchar command works just fine, and has veen working from day one. :)
What seems to be missing is the importnpc command, which I wondered if was an issue from the conversion for GURPS, or perhaps something I should ask the fantasy grounds support team about. |

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
Are you following the same process I demonstrate in the video?

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
That I am.
What is happening is that when I type in the command /Importnpc - it gives me this (See below). Note that when I do the /importchar (which has always worked by the way), it successfully imports the file, and even says where it got it from. But when I do the /importnpc - it doesn't do anything except bring up a list of commands, as if I had typed in an invalid command, or mistyped it. Then, to test my theory out, I went back to the first version of GURPS that I had been using with FG2, before your version came out. I then used the /Importnpc command, and it worked as expected bringing over the NPC. What I'm going to do next is download a fresh copy of your files, and see if that resolves the issue. I'll keep you posted. Begin copy from chat log...

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
Ok, I went to FG Forums, and grabbed this file (see below):
Latest Release Download Download latest release from here: http://goo.gl/OoOWu8 (Updated: 16th Feb 2017) Downloaded it to my machine, renamed the one I had been using, and then copied the downloaded file to the folder where it needs to be to run. Fired up FG2 with the newest download, and did a /help just to see if /importnpc was there in the list or not. For some odd reason, it isn't. :( Then I tried /importnpc and it failed again.

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
/importnpc works for me, and is listed right after /importchar in the list of slash commands.
One thing I note in the opening messages is that I am running CoreRPG ruleset v3.2.2 |

Re: Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds
That's a valid point. Make sure you have Fantasy Grounds itself updated.

Thing is? Why would it fail to work with your version of GURPS and the older one still works? I almost wish I could go back to version 3.2.2 just to see if that makes the difference... |
