Hi!
All you have to do is download the "FG-CoreRPG-Coins-Weight-Custom-Denominations.ext" file attached to the first post of this thread.
Extract it (it's a zip file) to a folder with the same name and move it to your FG extensions directory.
Open the folder and the scripts subfolder and then open customcoinweightdenominations.lua (it's a text file).
In the section starting with "elseif sRuleset == "5E" then" you should add new lines for each custom currency. Such as:
CoinsWeight.aDenominations['brass'] = { ['nValue'] = 10, ['nWeight'] = .02 }
the number after nValue is how many gp that denomination is worth. the number after nWeight is how many pounds each coin weighs.
When you're done, save the file and load both extensions (coin weight and coin weight custom denominations) in FG.

check the new developer notes. Coin weight is getting added to the ruleset natively.

Thanks for being so on top of it!

There is a new test build of Coin Weight for use with the latest test rulesets from SmiteWorks.
https://github.com/bmos/FG-CoreRPG-C.../tag/v2.0-rc.4

• The March 2022 CoreRPG ruleset now includes coin weight natively. This extension now ties into that official UI and on/off option, but handles coin weight via an inventory item. This enables negating coin weight per-player. It also allows you to see the net value of all coins by opening up the item sheet for the coin item.
• Better compatibility with theoretical rulesets that use different data structures/names for currency list.
• Much more efficient searching for coin inventory item.
• Coin inventory item can now be renamed to be anything.
• Add support for rulesets that have multiple coin or item inventories per character.

Full Changelog: v1.8-hotfix.1...v2.0-rc.5

New changes enabled by test channel enable this to work in Savage Worlds!
As of the upcoming CoreRPG update.

If we use custom denominations, will we still need the secondary ext for that?

No! Once the new update goes live the custom denomination ext file will no longer be needed.
Which is great, because that was confusing for some people.
