Cool! Thanks. Ya, I just still wanted this reported to see if it can even be fixed.
EDIT:
GAHH! I get to the last bit and I find an issue I REALLY can't figure out and its probably smack in front of me. This is with Dungeon Annual.
Code:7/25/2011 1:44:41 PM : Error data: Whirling Blades Automaton Level 6 Skirmisher Small natural animate (blind, construct) XP 250 Initiative +9 Senses Perception +1; blindsight 10 HP 66; Bloodied 33 AC 20; Fortitude 18, Reflex 20, Will 16 Immune disease, knocked prone, poison Speed 5 C Whirling Blades (standard, at-will) ZZX +10 vs AC; 1d6 + 4 damage, and the automaton can shift 1 square for each target it hits up to 3 squares.

Close burst 1
1: While the Parser is still open, it seems it keeps the txt file in use. Because of this, you have to write down the error and close the parser before it can be writable again.
2: I don't see what is the issue here. Here is the exact text I have.

2. You need to move the range of the power to be the first entry in the power text:
C Whirling Blades (standard, at-will)
ZZX Close burst 1; +10 vs AC; 1d6 + 4 damage, and the automaton can shift 1 square for each target it hits up to 3 squares.
C Remove Mark (minor, at-will)
ZZX Close burst 5; targets an enemy marking the automaton; +9 vs Will; the mark ends.
C Bladed Destruction ( when the automaton drops to 0 hit points, )
ZZX Close Burst 5; +10 vs AC; 1d10 + 2 damage. The whirling blade automaton explodes, launching blades in all directions.
That then works for me and it can parse. Hope it works for you!

Wow, looks like there are quite a few bugs remaining. Thanks for the detailed reports, folks, I'll work on knocking these out. I'm on vacation this week, so don't expect to see a build until two weekends from now at the earliest...

Well I was saying it was a 2 part issue because this happens after I receive the error. I had to literally close the parser to let it save.
I use things between GetDiz and Notepad++. Both reported not being savable and doing a little test, I couldn't delete the file as it said the 4E Parser was still using the file until the program was closed.
Upon testing, it seems the perception is showing up in the wrong location using the default unmodified scrapes. I had to look into this further. I don't exactly get it myself. It seems it shows the Perception in the senses, but not in the perception field. Sometimes it will show in the senses the perception bonus, but still not show the perception in the perception field.
And no problem EugeneZ.
EDIT: After getting back info and looking into it further, here is the best way to explain:
https://bit.ly/mQ6QkS - Without personalities
https://bit.ly/pveMDV - With Personalities
Observe the perception. These come from:
Murklord Frog - Monster Manual 3
Kestrekel Carrion Eater - Dark Sun Creature Catalog
Ice Warrior Raider - Dungeon Annual
Seems like Ice Warrior Raider is the only one willing to get a perception check correct. I suppose if its not an issue, I'll post what I have listed for those to see if we can fire out what the parser is doing during compendium download. If its an issue mods, feel free to edit this post and remove the code tags

@ zapoqx: Try adding a whitespace character between the keyword Perception and the + modifier for the first two NPCS e.g.
Perception +4
And see if that parses, OK. From looking at the Compendium the data entries for a Murklord Frog and Kestrekel Carrion Eater, they both don't have the whitespace that the Parser expects.Last edited by Zeus; July 27th, 2011 at 18:31.

Heh dont know if its possible, but WOTC changed the disease stat block. Was wondering if it would be possible to get it changed in the Parser to reflect that.
If not there are always alternatives lol.
And to Zapoqz, ya the perception scores need to be on the same line as initiative in order for it to work as intended.

so... to work where it will let me do the double click of that perception roll, it needs to have that white space...
And work as intended?

@zapoqx: Let me know if the NPC entries below parse OK. As joseph.pimpo has pointed out, in addition to the whitespace, Sense Perception text needs to be on the same line as the Initiative entry. See below.

Ran into a few errors while trying to parse a few of the magazines, specifically #373. Here's the error:
7/29/2011 2:45:42 PM : ERROR: line:Miss: Half damage, and the target is dazed (save ends).

It doesn't even get far into it and it pops up with an error I've never seen before.
The 2nd issue I ran into occurred while I was trying to compile all the Dragon Magazine information into 1 parse. I would take the information from the text documents, and put them all into 1 so they would make 1 large module. The error I keep getting is this:
7/29/2011 2:51:02 PM : ERROR:System.Xml.XmlException: The '[' character, hexadecimal value 0x5B, cannot be included in a name. Line 3156, position 741.

It seems to occur on a power that's actually within issue #373. Any suggestions?
---===Edit===---
Took out a large chunk of the descriptive text so it wouldn't be so massive. Sorry about that.

Well I got it to work fine with just the white space and it seems to work fine with those not using the "Senses Perception" thing next to initiative and with. It seems to me the only difference with the 2 is that without placing perception in the same line as initiative, it seems to just make the card wider. Otherwise, it seems to work just fine.
@Moose: I didn't have an error occur with 370-379 (I compiled mine that way by appending from Dragon magazine 370 all the way to 379). I don't think I had one at least. As to the 2nd error, that might be because of the parse it took from Compendium to text. I had an issue like that before and it was because of a simple apostraphe that in NotePad++, it never caught it, but when I changed the text format to whats used in GetDiz, the apostraphe was a different symbol character. Just simply go through and check what special characters there are in that section and replace it with the regular ascii key needed.Last edited by zapoqx; July 29th, 2011 at 21:15.
