Hey guys,

Is there a way to build and edit FG adventures and content away from FG?

I have FG installed at home on my personal desktop, but I want to edit my campaign at work on a company laptop - that I cannot install FG onto. How could I do this? Is anyone aware of a way to do something like this?

Many thanks
Blakey

Install some form of screen sharing app on your Home PC.

Thanks for the reply. I did that actually, but it does require me to leave my PC at home on.

I assume from this response that there is no easy way to do this?

You can't enter data directly into a FG like interface, without it being FG.

Depending on the ruleset, you could look at some of the parsers/data entry aid applications. For example: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?27297-5e-Parsers But then you'll need to install those on your work computer!

Otherwise, enter data into a text editor ready for copy/paste in FG when you get home.

Or maybe you should work while you’re at work?
Just kidding I know there can be downtime in some jobs.

If you are really, really good with XML, and really, really understand how FG organizes data, you could edit the db.xml manually in your favorite text/xml editor.
