Tokenlab: Herolab -> Maptools converter

Version 0.10 of TokenLab is released. It contains a number of bug fixes (thank you, beta testers) and a new 'Special Abilities' macro group that shows you the N/PCs feats and special abilities. Spells are next on the list.

The release page gives instructions on how to upgrade from a previous version.

(Developer/nerd note: the dtd file that Herolabs provides was immensely useful for making the custom output xml file parsing trivial using JAXB.)

Version 0.12 released. Includes:

  • full support for vision: darkvision, low-light vision, and normal vision.
  • DC and CL of spell now shown in spell viewer
  • some minor bug fixes

The vision features mean that you'll have to rebuild any campaign files and tokens that use TokenLab; see the upgrade page for a easy way to do this.
 
it only supports Pathfinder at the moment. but if someone with some Java skills wants to add d20 support, it is pretty straightforward :-)
 
Cool. I'm using JAXB to generate the class definitions from the Herolabs DTD file, so I'll generate the 3.5 d20 class defs and check them in (as well as set up some easy hooks to code against).
 
Ok, I added basic support for the d20 system. You can find some basic unit tests here -- all I'm doing is setting the character name, race, height, weight, etc. Note that there is no support for d20 in the user interface at all. Happy hacking!

Hello Sozin!
I'm having a bit of a problem, when I try to open the .bat file, I get an error:

"Windows cannot find 'javaw'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."

Using Windows 7. I put it into the "User" Directory with my account name on it.
 
Sweet! That worked.

oooh. New problem. I'm looking at the import instructions, using the sample, and I got to the export portion of the sequence (my goblin is now a green Checkmark)and I error:

"Something bad happened:\n\[L]java.lang.StackTraceElement;@1fe0dcb"

and I figured that one out on my own....*embarrassed*

Cool, glad things are working for you. We're still beta with this software so strange things might occasionally happen :-) I'll be watching this thread in case you have any other questions.
 
If you are at all on the fence about MapTool because you've heard it's complicated to setup - or like me, experienced it directly - consider the TokenLab utility to be a gateway.

Watch this video to see how MapTool doesn't have to be complicated at all to be very useful.

It demonstrates importing directly from HeroLabs XML output into MapTool, drawing up a quick-and-dirty battlemap, and running a sample combat.
