 I've been working hard this month on exploring adventure/scene imports, and looking at some options. You can see in the above animation the early results of an adventure importing into Foundry using the Adventure Importer/Exporter module.

The route taken will involve a standalone application, like foundry, which will talk to DDB and download and build the adventure/source book. It will take an index configuration file generated by ddb-importer to link items, spells and monsters.

I have a number of things to do to get this into a state that can be consumed by others, but I hope to have an Alpha tech preview release out next month for those who feel up to trying something that probably won't work right.

Happy adventuring!

This would make me actually buy adventures

This made my whole month. Importing with monsters would be a huge QoL improvement over the current status quo. I’ve got quite a lot of source books and would be happy to test this out once it’s alpha :)

Jason Roberts

I’ll test. I’m a software developer by trade 😘

Looking forward to this! You are doing some awesome work over here MrPrimate. :-)

Absolutely wonderful!

Well, I didn't see that one coming. Congrats on the upcoming release. I guess the race is on :P

Yes! I just got Foundry less than a month ago, and have been loving your import module. Getting proper Adventure integration was the best D&D news I've had since my group said they're ready to resume playing!

Christian Klein

Adventure import from DDB is seriously exciting news!

Ploppers

Amazing work!

Honestly, I like this just for the Journal imports. Having this stuff available and linked is such a big deal. Having scenes is a nice bonus, but being able to drag and drop, room descriptions from journal entries is a godsend to running an adventure quickly.

Holy moly - this is amazing. Can’t wait!

This would also offer others to build full campaigns and then allow them to be distributed?

So the Adventure Import/Export module already exists, I'm just going to be generating a package for it to use!

Phil Whitcomb

I literally came here to see if this was a thing. Yes, please!

Mike Tran
