    How practise I manually add my physical books

    This is probably an extremely super and over asked question, but I ain all of the base rules for D&D 5E in physical form. I desire to know how to manually add all the spells classes races monsters and other junk that comes with them. But I don't want to have to re purchase them either. I'1000 fine with spending 50-100+ hours manually typing if I have to I merely don't sympathise how to actually reach that.

    Hey SkullKidd

    One other thing - dont endeavor and add it all. Spend some time calculation the bits you demand at present. Classes and races take some time to add just Zacchaeus has great guides to a higher place - and other things tin exist added quite quickly

    The trouble is I demand it all because I run 3 different games lol but I won't have a problem with calculation everything considering it'south skilful to memorize things

    Also, make sure you add all this into various "Development" campaigns that you tin then export a module from that will finer exist your PHB, DMG, etc. See link in my signature on some thoughts and practices effectually using development campaigns and making modules.

    Hiya

    If you decide Engineer Suite looks useful to you (one of the links Zacch provided to a higher place) and then don't hesitate to bring together the Discord server and conversation about it. At the moment information technology only does NPCs and Spells, more is on the fashion. Links in my sig.

    Adept luck!

    Welcome to FG! In case y'all aren't already aware, FG comes with the D&D 5E Basic Rules and SRD as modules. Those may already have a lot of what you demand. Maasq's Engineer Suite will be very helpful for entering a lot of the rest.

    It sounds similar you're OK with a LOT of manual data entry labor. Good for you, and godspeed...
