Character Import?

[Uthred]

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, but my forum searches came up empty. My group is looking for a way to import 3.5e generated PCs into FG, from either the venerable old e-tools, or PCGen. Is there any conversion available for either? I found some rumblings of such on the boards, but could not find a definitive answer. Thanks!

Older versions of the d20_jpg ruleset used to come with an outputsheet for PCGen (two, actually, one for PC's and one for NPC's). With them, you could create an XML file that could then be cut and pasted into your campaign db.xml file. A basic understanding of creating valid xml tags is required, though.

I've only used the NPC one, and found that while it basically works, there are a few minor cosmetic defects in the output, and one bug (the attack bonus for 2-handed weapons doesn't transfer). So I end up editing the output before putting it into the db, but even with that it can save a ton of time.

The current version of d20_jpg doesn't seem to come with it, unfortunately. But PM me if you'd like a copy.
