Trying to blend genres. Is there any possible way?
This is my first post so it'll probably be ignored but I am definitely looking for any guidance I can find.
So I want to do a 5e sci-fi, high fantasy campaign where space faring folk stumble across a planet that has not developed into a Civ 1 planet but have made first contact and now sci-fi and fantasy can blend. I know that there's a lot of sci-fi themed games like starfinder and traveller but I want to also incorporate the classes of high fantasy too.
Is there any way to integrate sci-fi and high fantasy systems into one system like 5e? I doubt there is an extension that works for FGU but since I already have SF, 5e, and PF and PF2E, is it even possible to import and marry some of these aspects without spending hundreds of hours on copying and pasting information over to another system?
Any and all help is appreciated in advance.
Happy gaming!

Welcome to the forums.
For 5e there is Spelljammer.If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

So yes... But that comes with a lot of conditions because you really don't describe the details that would make or break how easy this would be to do.
For instance, if you want to use the 5E mechanics completely as-is, then all you would need is the above extension to load info from other ruleset sources. BU"T, if you want to change the mechanics of a ruleset, say by adding a Sanity Score to PCs and automate "Albedo Screen HPs" or change saving throw mechanics from ability saves to a new field (say "Willpower" "Health" and "Ego" then you are going to need a custom extension.

Hear the sounds of freedom ring, in a silent dream,
and a million miles away.
Reach for the stars, and live our lives forever free,
In our hearts for a thousand years, and a thousand lifetimes before.
And the dawn of a new day will rise, a light for us all. -Dragonforce
