Import data format?
Is it possible to buy, say, Fantasy grounds content and import it into Realworks?
|
What format does FG come in? an you access the raw data?
|
Most FG purchased content is encrypted, and you cannot access the source material. You could write an extension to export in xml maybe, but I haven't actually tried it.
|
There is no reasonable way to import the encrypted data. The unencrypted data could be run through an XLST script to get the RW xml format. I doubt it would be worth the effort since there is so little unencrypted content out there.

The store products are encrypted. There are ways around, but even then it does not help you much, because you need to data transformation between the XML based content of FG and the format supported by RW.
The structure of a FG module/db files depend on the ruleset, some are shitty to work with, others are easy. You need to do data mapping and transformation, which might not worth the time. Sometimes copy-paste is actually faster. Realm Works is much more complex and sophisticated campaign manager than FG is at the moment. So far, there is no good and complete documentation from LWD that will help you make application to properly read and write RW export/import files. Farling managed to provide to excellent tools that actually keep this product alive for me - CSV Importer and the Output Formatter. |
Yes both of those tools are a real benefit. Also don't forget Eightblitz who provided us with the nice powershell conversion method that got the ball rolling (i think) :P
