Utility - Character Importer

[Zeus]

Check out the FG app data folder, they should be installed in a folder called utilities.

My FG says it's v2.9.4 Ultimate. I'm a little surprised it says ultimate. I bought FG way back when it was v1.
@Zeus: per my original comment, I do not have a Utilities subfolder under the App folder.

That's because all full licenses are auto upgraded to ultimate for the duration of FG Con 3. It'll go back to full sometime over the next few days. This will have nothing to do with your issue.

Open up FG and select the "settings" button. Check where the data folder is pointing to and look for the utilities folder in there - I know you've told us you've looked in the app folder, but I'm just wondering if it's changed with you uninstalling and reinstalling.

I am running Windows 8.1 on. Surface Pro. I am looking in c:/programs (86)/Fantasy Grounds 2 and find no sub folders or links labeled Character Importer I then go to c:/users/username/AppData/fantasy grounds 2 and find a number of folders but nothing for utilities or character conversion?

Try going to the "Settings" window (from the main first screen of FG), enter your FG website "User Name" and press the "Update" button and enter your FG website password and press the "Login" button. Then press OK on the settings screen to take you to the updater window, press Update.

Once the update is complete, press the Windows key and type %appdata% and press return. This will take you to your user AppData directory in Windows 8. Open the "Fantasy Grounds II" folder and see if the "utilities" directory has now been created.

I was able to use the converter for Herp Lab portfolios before. Now I cannot. I am running latest BG2 and HL files. The issue is that I am unable to see my campaigns listed in the converter campaign listbox, regarless of what I select (I have tried everything). When I drop the "A Tale of Dinor - 4E" campaign folder in the BG2 campaign directory, I am able to see that in the converter campaign list however. See SS:

I have successfully completed a local import for the 3.5 ruleset as well (rather than directly into a campaign). So now I am wondering if this is related to HL ruleset changes, or the latest update for FG2- anyone else finding their conversions not working for PFRPG now?

[Auriakus]

For the time being I created a workaround by modifying the campaign.xml <ruleset> node in the module I want to import too from "PFRPG" to "3.5E"

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<root version="3.0">
<ruleset>3.5E</ruleset>
<username>Auriakus</username>
</root>

Some things got jacked, like encumberance thresholds, but I can make this work. Thanks for making me think. I'm getting too old for this ****....
