Limitations of the SRD

[fetito666]

Hello!

I already own "Fantasy Grounds" and I have some questions.

1) Can I exchange data between FG and HL?

2) What are the exact limitations of the D&D 5th edition SRD version of HL? I know that FG has the official one in an addon. Can I import it to HL?

3) If I create a char in FG with the "D&D Complete Core Class Pack"-addon (Player Handbook), can I modify that data in HL? Player sheets cannot be printed in FG and I'd like to create PDF files in HL.

Not sure if you can move data between FG and HL, but there are tools and website that will print a character sheet from FG.

Not yet, but we'll soon be adding "custom output" to HL for 5th edition, which fantasy grounds will be able to read.

2) What are the exact limitations of the D&D 5th edition SRD version of HL? I know that FG has the official one in an addon. Can I import it to HL?

You can find a link to download the SRD here:

It has a limited selection of options meant to give examples, but many people are working to put out a community set to fill in the gaps.

While HL may be able to export to FG in the future, it won't be able to import from FG, so no.

3) If I create a char in FG with the "D&D Complete Core Class Pack"-addon (Player Handbook), can I modify that data in HL? Player sheets cannot be printed in FG and I'd like to create PDF files in HL.

As stated in question 2, there's no way to create a character in another tool and then bring it back into HL, so unfortunately not. You'd have to save your character in HL, then export it to Fantasy Grounds, and after doing that you wouldn't be able to bring any changes back to HL.
