Both systems use different syntax/coding and thing-ID's. A direct import will not load. The best way is copy and paste small parts of what you want, in order to check what works and try to fix what doesn't - one item/feat/ability at a time.

So I created two ghostwalk feats in a new data file. The first one corrupting touch is just the text, I didn't modify anything from the default editor field.

The second one, enerverating touch, I added all the restrictions listed - non-good, CHA 15 and corrupting as a prerequisite.

I then hit test and I got the message "feat X is ready to use in herolab"

I close the editor and go to add these feats but they do not appear in the list of feats:

1. Restart Hero Lab, or quick Reload (Cnt-R).
2. Does your user file have a SOURCE? If so, did you activate the source on the Hero.

And what folder did you store your file in? Was it the default?

Bingo, I created it as a source, had to re-add it.

Yes default location for pathfinder.

Thanks both.
