Cannot import character sheets

[Jasondandr]

Howdy all.

I've run across this new problem and I have yet to find a fix for it. I've been using FG for months now and have never had any problem importing dnd4e files into my campaigns. All of the sudden I get the error "Cannot convert XXXX: The given key was not present in the dictionary."

The only change that I made recently is to import items from DDI into the table. Could that be the reason for the new error? Maybe the newest update?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What exactly are you doing? Importing 4E into Pathfinder?

What options are you selection for output?

Could you attached the DDI file so we can try? You'll need to ZIP it before attaching.

[Jasondandr]

No, it's a 4e campaign. All I'm doing is taking the character files from DDI and importing them into a 4e campaign. Nothing crazy. It's worked all this time and then just stopped.

Here's one of the files I was trying.

Worked for me if I exported to XML first then imported from XML into the Campaign. Didn't work, even though it said it did, importing from the conversion tool to the campaign.

Alright. I've never had to export to XML in order to get it to work before. I'll give that a try.

Gives me the same error even with XML.

In your first screenshot you had a reference to a Pathfinder mod, have you double checked the ruleset in use? (PF is 3.5 right?)

Remove the check mark from the "Use modules from the module manager to lookup data". This should remove the error.

I'm honestly not sure why it lists anything from 3.5. I've only ever used 4e. I will attach the exact error message in full.

I'm using version 3.1.2 of the table and version 3.0.6 A of the converter. I suppose I should update that.

See post #10 above - that should fix it.

That did it! This was driving me nuts. thanks very much for all of your help everyone. Still not sure why it's including checks for 3.5 data but at least it's working.

If you have that checked it will use the modules in the module manager. Click the "Manage Modules" menu at the top of the app - you'll see a bunch of 3.5e and PF modules.
