Updating Homebrew Sets

Introduction

This section is for updating older homebrew LST files to use the current standards. This is a work in progress. Any questions ask on the PCGen Yahoo Group.

PrettyLST

• First off we'll need PrettyLST for earlier versions of PCGen

You can get it here

• Next, to run PrettyLST you'll need ActivePerl, you can grab it from here

• You will want to run PrettyLST with the Conversion Flag turned on to bring your sets up to 5.12 standards. Note this is not a perfect conversion, you will need to check your materials against any errors PrettyLST outputs.

5.12.x-->5.14.x

For 5.12 to 5.14 you'll want Barak's Script from here

Again you'll need perl, see above. You may also need to jon the PCGenLiSTFileHelp group to access the file. I put the script with PrettyLST.

5.14.x-->5.16.x

5.16.x and beyond has a Converter included with PCGen. That Version of PCGen will update any files from the previous version. So the 5.16.x converter will bring 5.14.x files forward to 5.16.x standards.

NOTE: The Converter will bring the previous cycle forward, do not use 6.0 to bring 5.14 forward, use 5.16 to do that.
