Not able to select a Race #161

Open Dearion7 opened 7 months ago

Dearion7 commented 7 months ago

When I try to create a character with Hero Creation Tool I get the following issue: When I'm at the Race tab I can only choose None. He doesn't show the races I have.

In the Comendium Sources I have selected the following Race Compendia:

Please advise what I do wrong

Hi @Dearion7 ! If this is with the latest version of 5e that has integrated Race items, unfortunately I was not able to work on them yet. I am in need of some long holiday to get this back on track unfortunately. I will be posting an update as soon as I can.

Dearion7 commented 7 months ago

No problem at all. Yes I run the latest version of 5e with integrated Race items. I just wanted to let you know. I will patiently wait for your update after your holiday.

bumping since we are affected for when @Dearion7 gets a long holiday :)

EDIT: Let me know if there is anything I could work on to help with. I'm a full-stack developer but don't have experience with foundry modules.

Just a heads up. We are waiting on @ccjmk for when he get’s a long holiday to fix this. He is the developer for this module.

I’m just a person using the module and found this issue.

Gander7 commented 7 months ago

Yup, thanks for the correction, wasn't thinking when I tagged :)

So... to summarize, the module is completely useless until someone has time to fix this? Sorry to sound excessively negative, I'm new to Foundry and I'm just trying to get everything working. Maybe there is some not-latest version of the 5e SRD races I can use?

ccjmk commented 6 months ago

Well I can spoil that I am actually working on this! (here showing a new Race-type item showing in the UI, and mapping the ability scores improvements on screen as expected - though they don't yet go to the created actor) image

But it will still take some time for a new version to be available as it's a big change behind the curtains. I haven't tried what you suggest as workaround but I expect to find some errors anyway because of things that changed inside the system that this module was relying on. I will give this a try asap and let you know if it's a valid workaround.

Well, sending telepathic espresso shots your way. LMK if I can help, I'm a pretty decent Typescript developer.

ccjmk commented 6 months ago

Well I certainly appreciate the offer! :D right now the code is a "little" absolute mess that I'm trying to clean up but if I can get it to a state where I think it'd be easy and reasonable to parallelize some work I might reach you back!

I am also affected by this

Hi @ccjmk , any updates on this? I guess we are many to be able to help, maybe you can provide a draft PR from where we can go on?

Regards

Agreed with what @tomsihap said. I'm sure there are quite a few of us that could help. This is a blocker for me as well. Considering pulling the code and just fixing it myself since its been 5 months and no word from @ccjmk.

In the Comendium Sources I have selected the following Race Compendia:

  • DDB Races (Imported from the DDB Importer Module)
  • Races (SRD)
  • Races (Custom)

I am also having an issue using this in Foundry v12 as no matter what I do no races appear for me to select.
