has anybody tried this recently ?
I downloaded the latest version, and it just doesn't work. I go to a folder that has PDF's in to inport them into my library, and it doesn't show anything ? Does anybody have a youtube video or anything to see if I am doing something wrong ? Cheers |

Steps as follows
Be certain you have Jamz fork of Maptool (infused with Nerps) v1.4.3.20 Go to file>Add Resource to Library Press ... and browse for the folder containing the PDF(s) that you want to convert Add that folder Now go to your Resource Library (Uppermost Left Window) and find your added folder Click the + to expand and see the PDFs Click on PDF and wait, a big PDF takes a few minutes to even get started and then 5-10 minutes to complete Let me know how it goes |

Hi,
It must be the wrong version, because nope I get nothing.... I've been to the link on his website, and downloaded it again, just to be sure. but I get the same result. |

The Maptools (infused with Nerps) website gives me a 404 error when I try to download the Windows 32 bit version when I click on latest. I can download the 64 bit Windows, Mac, and Linux version which I can't use. I'm using Windows 7 32 bit system.

Yep that's the one.
Maybe the version of map tools is different... IDK. oh well back to the drawing board. |

Because of this thread, I just downloaded and used maptools for the very first time and followed the instructions to import my Reign of Winter PDF's and all I can say is wow! Thank you! Looks like no more roll20.net for me!

@Jay_Nola, you get a 404 because I don't provide (or link) to a 32 bit version. It's 2017 so I've made the decision to only support x64 bit OS's and Java 1.8. Supporting Windows/Mac/Linux is headache enough.
If you need to run on something that doesn't match the above, you have to go old skool and install Java for your platform and you can run these jar's manually. http://maptool.nerps.net/prod_releas...4.3.20-fat.jar http://maptool.nerps.net/prod_releas...4.3.20-fat.jar @Happydevil43, I'll need more info to assist. Possibly the PDF (I assume you've tried multiple PDF's?) Are you getting a progress bar and it hangs? Or finishes with no results? What happens when you click the PDF icon/folder in "Resource Library"? @Everyone else, glad to help! I'm currently working on a update to provide a much better "install" interface as well as a brand new TokenTool rewritten in JavaFX. Today's hint: If you are using this for PDF with grids baked into the maps, right click on the map and select "Auto Resize" to help resize the map so it matches the MapTool grid! -Jamz RPTools.net | MapTool Discord Invite Download Latest MapTool Release | Download Latest TokenTool Release |

Is there somewhere we can get more information as to what the NERPS version of maptools provides over the regular maptools?
