A new Dungeondraft to Fantasy Grounds Unity conversion tool

[GunnarGreybeard]

This worked, thank you so much!

Glad to help.

For windows users, there's an easy way to install, use and update the conversion tool:

If you have Scoop Installer, you can type the following in your CMD or Powershell terminal:

C:\Users\user> scoop bucket add games
C:\Users\user> scoop install uvtt2fgu

You can then use it in any folder, since it will be added to your PATH.

Oh my, it's been so long since I've set up Python:
- First, install a Python runtime from https://www.python.org.
- Download the uvtt2fgu.py script from the github page. I would suggest into wherever you've saved (or going to save) your .dd2vtt file
- Go into a command prompt (cmd.exe for Windows, Terminal for Mac OS)
- "pip install Pillow" this is needed to add the extra library used to generate the .jpg file
- cd into where you've saved your .dd2vtt file
- run the script "./uvtt2fgu.py filename.dd2vtt". (Of course, replace "filename.dd2vtt" with the name of your dd2vtt file)
- This should result in filename.png, filename.jpg, and filename.xml being created
- Copy the .xml file into your campaign's "images" folder
- Import the .jpg inside Fantasy Grounds

For Mac OS: If you have homebrew installed, you could also install python with "brew install python3".
For Windows: umm.. haven't tried it myself on Windows, but is probably close to what is above. Will be trying this shortly. I've been primarily developing on Linux.

I’m having trouble following this
Could someone explain it in a bit more detail
Ps I use MacBook

What part gives you trouble exactly? What step are you blocked at?

I've never used Python before. I've installed the runtime, checked to see if it has the current version, etc. It works from my command prompt.

When I try to use the command "pip install Pillow" from the command prompt I get this error message: 'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file."

When I run the uvtt2fgu.py module I get this error message from the Python GUI: Traceback (most recent call last):


File "C:\Users\rbsea\OneDrive\Documents\RPG\Dungeon s & Dragons\Spelljammer\Images\Ships\uvtt2fgu.py", line 16, in <module>
from PIL import Image
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PIL'

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you're running on Windows, it's far, far, far easier to use the .exe version that Imagix provides rather than the .py script:
go here https://github.com/Imagix/uvtt2fgu/releases/tag/v1.5.1
download uvtt2fgu.exe
run that, not the .py script. It incorporates all the Python modules needed already. You don't need to install the runtime either.

Or you can install Scoop Installer and install the script via the instructions written here

Thanks!

Native support for uvtt, dd2vtt, and df2vtt file import is currently in the Test channel and will be coming to the Live channel when v4.4 is released.

Excellent news.

I was about to mention the same. I guess my tool is no longer required
