4E Character Backgrounds
Hey all. beastman013 suggested an extension for adding background support, and considering the backgrounds are already parsed by Skeleon's parser I figured it would be fairly easy. Here is an extension that adds the background to the Notes section of the character and I think should work for taking care of anything. as always, report any bugs you find.
Hoping to get with Siefer and get support implemented into the character converter.

Thanks for the quick turnaround. I've downloaded the file and will begin testing today. I'll keep you posted.

Update - I missed a key sentence. Found the backgrounds in the option module.
I attempted to add a background to an existing and a new character. In both cases, I could not find/did not see a button for a background table to choose from. In the screen shot you posted, how did you pull/fin the Child of the Wilds background?Last edited by beastman013; Yesterday at 16:22. Reason: Additional information

I tested the background feature, and everything seems to be working. I did not test every possibility, but the process is stable and works for what I looked at.
Note - the Heroic Themes cannot be added to the Background box (as it should be.) I'll post a follow-up in the original thread.
Thanks again!
