I don't think it likes 2 sets of spell like abilities.
I must have been lacking sleep I missed that My Bad!
Trenloe is there a way to add spells to SpellParseRef.xml long thread not sure if anyone has asked?
Chris
Yep, just keep the same internal XML format.Quote:

I just went through and reparsed bestiary 1 to add spells for everything. in the end i had to exclude three of the items
Xill
skeletal champion
vampire
the parser did not like the statblocks from any source.
but the only thing in bestiary 6 were skipped spells from sources like HA, OA so i am at a loss....
has anyone done this and had the same problems
Chris
Errors in the XML are usually due to ill-formatted spell/spell like ability entries, or special abilities not ending in a period.Quote:

Not sure what you mean by this comment. More info please.Quote:

Did not know the parser would go past something with errors. when i have used it before it would always through an error, i fixed it then it workedQuote:

Every single statblock was "no go"?Quote:

There's not much information to go on here.
Please provide the text of one creature that is a "no go" and give information on what the actual issue is. This will give me a chance to address properly rather than guessing. Thanks.
The new spells parsing works off the information in the NPC statblock and it expects a certain format (as detailed in the Paizo statblock standard), and generates formatted XML for FG to use. Unfortunately, even Paizo statblocks don't always adhere to the standard. The parser app has never tested the syntax of the end XML - so if there are small issues in the original NPC statblock then they won't raise errors in the application, but can result in incorrect FG XML - which the app doesn't test for.Quote:

I can not find anything about formatting on this style of stat block.
I think this is the problem, best i can tell
Thanks for the help Trenloe, sorry for being such a pain in the donkey.
