Description
I have a request to have the creature cards information copied into vcc. I know something is supposedly in the works to have this information copied from the dnd compendium to vcc via a Firefox add-on and I am totally stoked for this feature but now that they have this new official application called Adventures Tools that stores all the creatures locally on your pc as well as lets you customize or completely create new creatures I believe utilizing this as well as the compendium would make for a powerful solution. I know that with this new tool you can copy the card info as rich text or as image so I believe with this new option it would be much easier to import the information as image but I don’t know anything about programming but I am very very hopeful that this application can be used in conjunction with vcc. Keep up the awesome work guys this application is near perfection.

The best alternative is using the XML files. For official monster the plugin is the beast an safest option. This will be tackled after version 1.0.

Will read XML files to import data. Official monsters should be captured by the VCC Firefox Plug-in.

I seem to be having an issue with the capturing from the compendium. I keep getting a error that Sending to http://127.0.0.1:1552/capture failed with error code: or I get Virtual Combat Cards replied: You sent something that VCC cannot capture.
I really enjoy this tool though, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
