It took about three hours of manual labor to get a small pathfinder module into a 5e usable state. I'm curious, is there an easy way to leverage word/par5e/somthing to streamline the import of story content from pathfinder into 5e en mass. I don't care about the NPCs as they would be impossible.

Anybody willing to mentor? I live in central time.

Its just practice.

And... if you are not playing via text you can just import the maps, create new traps and drag in appropriate NPCs from the MM.
A total conversion really isnt necessary .
Read to the players from the PDF like you would at the table.

This post and attachment (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?36157-5e-Asset-Templates) might be useful if you want to get into XML.

Otherwise your only option for Story entry is to copy paste into FG directly.

Thanks, I'll take a look into this XML thing, it might be what I'm looking for to assist my current workflow.
