EvilMouse,
Cool name by the way.

Double check your Dir setup, where the Input and output is set to go.
When I set up a 2nd module I messed mine up and caused an issue that looked a bit like this.
Though the first one got it correct.

Might be worth a look.

Xorn's Video on the setup is good, had to pause a few times but it helped me.
Sticky link Par5e Tutorials has the links.
Hard to do on phone.

Good Luck,
If that is not it look for special chars in the txt they cause issues sometimes.

[Xorn]

Search for ##; throughout the TXT file and check each one--I'll bet one of them has an issue. (Though for spells you should only have #@; at the beginning and ##; before the spell descriptions--not with each spell.

every spell is ok

[Trenloe]

Start with just one spell and try parsing that. If it works, add another and parse. Keep going, adding one more spell at a time, until you find which spell is causing your XML to not be created.

[Xorn]

While that's a good tactic--might I recommend splitting it in half--then you know which half is the problem. then split that in half, and that in half, etc. :) Pretty soon you'll have it narrowed down to a handful of spells.

[Griogre]

I do it like Xorn, too. Split half and keep halfing. The problem with this is to remember you might have multiple errors. If you think there may be a lot of errors then Trenloes approach is better.

If PAR5E is reporting:

Make : spells windowlists .................................................. ................ [Completed]
Then it has completed the parsing of spells and is stumbling on the creation of the next data items list data i.e. for 5E after spells comes story, tables and then tokens. Are any of these enabled for the parse?

[Larac]

What is after backgrounds, looks good until that.

[Zeus]

What is after backgrounds, looks good until that.

Take a look at the order of the data items on the Config tab, PAR5E honors the order of the data items as listed. For the 5E ruleset, after Backgrounds comes Classes.
