I swore that I had formatted those like you have and it failed on me. I'm still going to be looking at making a better output though.
Also the NPC import makes the cleric's combat abilities (positive/negative blast) a spell section, that's kinda nice.
Found out how to place the magical bonus in front of the weapon, There's a set called PCGen Re-namer that puts the plus in front of the items, Having slashes in the names though are screwing up the weapon attack blocks.
Can someone tell me why I keep getting errors. Its only creating 11 of the 13 mobs. I can't figure it out. Thanks

Were these creating using PCGen? If so I've found that several of the class abilities and feats are missing ending periods.
went through post 1-4 last night a number of timesQuote:

Am I doing something wrong by editing it further to make sure the stats don't go to another line, etc?
What editor are you using? Notepad or something similar? It seems like you are getting extra formatting characters in there... you want to be using clean text files. It might be best if you were to upload the text file you are working with.
Black, I'm using Text wrangler for Mac. Give me about 2 mins and I'll up load the actually .txt file. There's something I'm continually not doing or not understanding how to fix. I've never just put the info in and it work I always spend hours getting it to work.
can't upload a .txt file to the forums, its not a proper extension, but check you Skype if your around, i sent it to you there, if you have a sec to look at itQuote:
