Second, if you're selecting Word as the output format, change your destination file to have a .doc or .docx extension.

Other than that, I'm not sure. Is anyone else besides ArgoForg having these issues?

Hi. First post here, so please excuse any general lack of understanding that I might have. I've read this thread and documentation thoroughly and I'm having the same issue as ArgoForg. Did you decide that this issue is the known bug of having a blacked-out-but-revealed smart snippet? My world is still very small, so I went in and "un-revealed" any snippet that might have qualified as a trigger for the bug, and I'm getting the same error. I'd really love for this to work.

Help?

Found the problem. For anyone getting this issue with the "= operator missing" (as reported in ArgoForg's post, the solution is to make sure you're running version 4.5 of the .Net framework and then download and install version 5.0 of Windows Management Framework. This will update PowerShell and the error will go away.

Finally updated, folks. I know a couple of you have been waiting patiently for these fixes. I apologize for the long delay, and I appreciate your patience.

See the top post or read the release notes.

Thank you for finding this solution.

Eightbitz,

There is a minor(ish) issue you may want to know about. The script errors out when confronted by an empty Labeled Text snippet. I have quite a few of those which I intend to fill in, of course, but right now they are sort of empty placeholders.

Ultimately, all that data will be filled in when I export this for real and the script will work properly, so it's not a big deal. I just thought you might want to know.

Here is the error code:

[ERROR]
     Command Line: &(".\RWExport-To-HTML.ps1") -Source 'D:\Owncloud\RPG\Utilities\RWExport\SWSkills 0.2.rwoutput' -Destination 'D:\Owncloud\RPG\Utilities\RWExport\skill02.html' -Sort 4 -SimpleImageScale 0 -SmartImageScale 0 -CSSFileName 'RWExport_091b_1.6.css' -Format 'HTML' -Prefix -Suffix -Details -Indent -KeepStyles -Force
         Reason: InvalidOperation - You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.

       Location: Line 741, Character 17
    Script Line: $InsertPoint = $Text.IndexOf($TagPreface) + $TagPreface.Length

          Topic: Brawl
        Section: Overview
   Snippet Type: Labeled_Text
[/ERROR]

First, EightBitz, thank you SO much for creating this!

Question: Has anyone been able to get the ExtractFiles function to work? Is there a trick to it that I'm missing? I've tried everything I can think of, but it doesn't work. It just fails (no error or anything), and subsequent attempts (until I reboot) give me an error (see attached).

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

If it helps/matters, here's what I'm using (and yes, that folder is empty except for the CSS and the "realm_files" subfolder):
-Source 'C:\Users\russ\Documents\GAMING\Saltmarsh Campaign\_RW Info\saltmarsh_rw.rwoutput' -Destination 'C:\Users\russ\Documents\GAMING\Saltmarsh Campaign\_RW Info\saltmarsh_rw' -Sort 4 -SimpleImageScale 0 -SmartImageScale 0 -CSSFileName 'RWExport_091b_1.6.css' -Format 'HTML' -Prefix -Suffix -Indent -KeepStyles -ExtractFiles -Force

I've also tried "... -Destination 'C:\Users\russ\Documents\GAMING\Saltmarsh Campaign\_RW Info\saltmarsh_rw\'..." but that hasn't worked, either.

Take off the -Force option, and add a -Log option. So, something like this:

-Source 'C:\Users\russ\Documents\GAMING\Saltmarsh Campaign\_RW Info\saltmarsh_rw.rwoutput' -Destination 'C:\Users\russ\Documents\GAMING\Saltmarsh Campaign\_RW Info\saltmarsh_rw' -Sort 4 -SimpleImageScale 0 -SmartImageScale 0 -CSSFileName 'RWExport_091b_1.6.css' -Format 'HTML' -Prefix -Suffix -Indent -KeepStyles -ExtractFiles -Log 'c:\users\russ\saltmarsh_export.log'

OK, no word back from Rabit. Is anyone else having this issue?
