Character crashes GM's FG. (PFRPG)

[Gwaihir Scout]

I had an interesting situation happen last week. One of my players sent me his character (Pathfinder witch). I imported it, looked over it, and everything seemed fine. Come game time he tried to select his character after logging on, and my FG crashed. We tried a couple more times, including asking another player to select the character, and it just kept happening. I finally got around it by having the player rebuild the character from scratch while he was logged into my game.

The character .xml file is attached if you're interested.

This ended up being the same issue just recently reported in a BRP campaign for someone with a really long Notes field. In the character file you attached, there is a text field longer than 8000 characters, which is currently the max field size supported by the FG network code. (It looks like the Witch Hex ability description is very long.)

I have already added a patch in the v2.9.2 beta that addresses this one.
