D&D Beyond Integration

For anyone who is following this thread, I just updated the limitation to remove the biggest one of them all!

Content referencing a different book will not be correctly copied (for example an NPC in Curse of Strahd would not have any spells since those spells come from the PHB/SRD and are not specific to Curse of Strahd. Likewise, monsters referred to in that adventure would not be imported unless they only exist within that adventure)

This was the biggest challenge which took a very long time to overcome but it’s now done and if you import a book, whatever content it’s referencing from other books, will also be recursively imported as well (as long as you do own that other book, otherwise a ‘skeleton’ actor/spell/item will be created instead, missing some of its attributes)

The latest update also adds organizations, backgrounds and feats support, as well as equipment, armor and magic items. Although, at this time, the magic items and equipment/armor will only contain their description but it doesn’t set the attributes on the item (like rarity of the item, the AC for armor, or the damages of weapons, etc…).

You can see the full list of changes in this week’s update from our changelog post here.

The next steps are going to be about adding those missing stats, and reviewing the converted content for monsters, spells, etc… in order to be as accurate as possible. These are the tedious but less challenging parts, so I hope to have another update with that soon!
