New Paser: 4.0.115

You can download the new version here

Updates for Essentials, Psionic Power, and the new compendium items (backgrounds, familiars, etc).

Note 1:
I tested the PHB, Arcane Power, and Psionic Power but I didn't have time to regression test all the older books.

Note 2:
There's a new version of the lore extension which offers /ilore (send lore images only), /tlore (send lore text only), /lore (send both text and images). It may fix some issues other people were having. Get get image support you must reparse modules containing npcs with the 115 parser or greater. You can download it here

Version History:

Hey J,

I feel a little dumb asking this, but what is the NPC database and how do I access it?

Thanks,
Olodrin

I can't install the latest version. It asks me for the .msi from version 4.0.56 which I didn't have. I picked it up from elsewhere on this blog but still get a message saying the old version of the parser could not be removed, which interrupts the installation of the new version. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Never mind! Got it working just now. For some inexplicable reason, the download of the older version had to be in my browser's "temp downloads" folder and not alongside the .msi of the new version. Who can figure the mysterious foibles of computers?

The NPC Database is for the module workshop.
