Hello everyone! There are some updates, but first I'll answer your comments ^^
ANSWERS Your help is greatly appreciated, man. I'll let you know as soon as I start tackling multilanguage support Quote:
1) where are these placed in the XML, if it's a new section I'll have to alter my code, if not support is built in 2) their node type, if it's a new one or not, same logic as point 1 Your question also gives me the occasion to ask for everyone's help! Could you please send me your character XML (PM is preferred) so I can add support for the various Pathfinder classes\races? This would greatly help me ^^ UPDATES |

Re-reading the thread I think I need to better explain how the plugin works and clear some confusion, since people asked if "the sheet" will be in English and even offered to translate "it" ..
There's no included sheet, you'll need to provide one, either in the form of a pdf or image. What my plugin allows you to do is to place content straight from HeroLab's XML wherever in the pdf\image you want.. This is why I ambitiously called this plugin universal, because you can use whatever pdf or custom image you've found online or created in Photoshop\GIMP\etc as a source for your sheet! I hope I've not mislead anyone, and if I did I'm really sorry, it wasn't intentional |

QUICK UPDATE & HELP REQUEST
Quick update: project is not dead, quite the contrary actually! I'm almost done, I have to finish mapping HeroLab's xml output to my app menu. About that, if you could send me your xmls for the various Pathfinder classes, it would help immensely! Thanks a bunch and a very late Happy New Year! |

Quick update about spheres of power:
Sooo apparently they fall under a very generic "otherspecials" category in the xml, each sphere being a "special" with no specific attributes. So I can and will include them, but they will be under a character tree option called "Special" together with anything else HL devs will categorize the same way :/ Not ideal, but better than no support I guess |

There probably isn't. I've brought it up before, but the raw XML doesn't have enough information in it to build a proper character sheet. Clearly, this "special" category is one such area, but there is no way to figure out which containers hold which items, either. (That's the one I looked at previously, because I wanted TheAncientOne's sheet to support it. Sadly, it's not possible.)
I've filed a bug report for the latter issue, but people who are interested should file their own bug reports. The more people that file a bug report, the more likely it is to be corrected. |
