Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 3rd Edition Ruleset

Hi all, just a quick update on progress of v1.1

The following features have already been completed:

* Added missing scroll control to career description
* Added current recharge value to condition card
* Added current recharge value to insantity card
* Added recharge token to desktop
* Added ability to drag and drop recharge token to any card that supports recharge

With regards to the issue around entering different recharge values for actions based on a conservative/reckless stance, the fix for this will require a change to the format of the library. In order to make this easier for everyone, I am writing a small tool that will automatically upgrade your library file for you.

For now, I recommend the following:

* For an action card where the recharge value is the same for both conservative and reckless, simply enter a single value.

* For an action card where the recharge value is different for conservative and reckless, enter the value in the format 2.3 (2 = conservative, 3 = reckless)

If you use this format, then my upgrade tool will be able to upgrade your library for you.

Hi Neil,

As you are working on the new version 1.1 of your ruleset, I stop for the moment to fill the action cards.

I started to fill all the items. And I encounter the same scrolling bug for the Description tag on Items Cards. It doesn't scroll and doesn't get the scroll icons.

As you already found why, I wanted you to know it before you release the new version. ;)

I have a few questions on Item in general :

What is the Craftmanship Tag mean to you ? Is it the Quality of a particular item ? Poor, Good, Superior and so on ?


Can I add some images in your library ?

I imagine having some important tables in the library so that I can refer to them quickly and easily. I don't know how to do that but hey you're the master here :p

Good luck with the new version !

Hi,

I am new to Fantasy Grounds and using it to GM WFRP 3rd. When I am making alterations to the Library to build action cards e.t.c the module is not not available when I reload fantasy grounds. I am saving it in the same location as the existing modules, can you help?

Tal

Hi Tal,

Some questions first:

Did you create a modified copy of the original Neil Library Module with a different name and then copy your modified Library Module in the same folder ?

If Yes, do the two library files exist at the same time in the same folder ?

If Yes, remove the Neil original Library Module. Cause the two Library Module share the same definition.xml so they overwrite each other in Fantasy Grounds.

Hope it helps !

still can't get it to work, i did originally have both copies in there but it still does not register my new file

Maybe you are making the same mistake I was

When replacing
<exampleaction1>

</exampleaction1>

with
<Melee Strike>

It should be
<meleestrike>

When i first took a stab at editing, just getting that wrong caused the library to not show up at all.

Make sure when you zip the module back up to create the modified .mod file that you have not zipped the directory as well. This is a common problem with making/modifying .mod files. Make sure that you zip up the files from within the directory itself, not by zipping up the directory.

Perhaps a </p> is missing somewhere...

Good point, the XML may not be correct.

talsharien - load your module XML into an application that can check the XML syntax. Lots of people on the forums here recommend Notepad++ with the XML plugin - it's free.

Also check that you're not zipping up the directory in the .mod file (as I've suggested earlier).

Unfortunatley Fantasy Grounds doesn't give you much information if it can't load a module, so using a XML editor like Notepad++ (as Trenloe suggests) will help identify if there are any syntax issues in the file.

I also tend to use Fantasy Grounds own package utility for zipping and unzipping the module file. It never includes the directory in the zip file so thats one less thing to worry about. You can download the tool from the Downloads page on this site.
