I've confirmed it's not a conflict. The result is the same with only Advanced Effects extension loaded.

That is definitely a bug and surprised it's taken this long to show up. Previously there was a conflict with using the language name "init" so I used "init_ae" to get around it. Problem is changing that language piece also broke this. For now, use the manual mode and use INIT: XXQuote:

Never mind. I pulled it from GitHub and patched the startup issues in manager_effect_adnd.lua on lines ~40-80. FGC boot was throwing nil dereference errors at boot.
Code defensively and always check for existence before indexing into objects (even if you think they should be non-nil).
Specifically, you need nil checks on:
CombatRecordManager
CharFeatManager
CharClassManager
CharFeatManager
CharRaceManager
CharManager
Hope that helps.
And...never mind, albeit with the caveat that pulling the update from Forge to FGC still does not work.
Hmmm...also looks like problems with DB.getChildList on line 559 -- same issue -- nil value.
Are these FGC-specific issues?
The Forge has nothing to do with FGC. FGC extras must be manually installed.
@damned is correct. I no longer write/support extensions for FGC.Quote:

Currently, the first line in the post is:
"Latest version currently compatible with FGC and FGU."
Also, if there is a final version that was fully compatible with FGC, it would be great to archive it somewhere and include a pointer to it. I saw that it was indicated as compatible and tried to find it.
Have a look at the code to see if there are any points where the FGU coding could be more defensive. There are a lot of places where there is indexing without object verification.
I have updated the Advanced effects extension, I have also disabled - updated FGU and Re enabled and updated FGU again to make sure I have the most updated copy. I can Add effects to the PC abilities tab BUT these effects are not added automatically when adding the PC to the CT.
Can you show us some screenshots showing what effects you are trying to add.Quote:
