I built a program that can build DnD5e Roll20 Macros in seconds from PDF or Text, plus so much more. No API
Hello! I'm going to try to post this again. My original post from Wednesday contained copyright material so I have adjusted my GIF so it more closely aligns with the community standards.
I built a Dungeons and Dragons companion program this is able to turn raw text stat block of creatures copy and pasted into a program that outputs the specialized Roll20 Macro Cards.
It also is compatible with DnD Beyond PDF character Sheets as it has a PDF importer. I have tried it with my own homebrew character sheets built from Google Slides and Print to PDF and it catches about 90% of the information so it's not perfect.
I call this program the Lawn Gnome Gaming DM Hub and it's so much more than a macro exporter, it's built as a full blown Dungeon Master's Combat Companion. In my opinion, this is the most advanced Dungeons and Dragons Initiative Tracker that can be found.
The DM Hub can:
- Export fully functional Roll20 Macros to your clipboard (No API!)
- Track Initiative
- Encounter Building for Session Preparation
- Track Status Effects
- Track Most Spell Effects
- Track Spellcasting Charges for Monsters
- Track Spell Slots for Player Characters
- Detect Legendary Creatures, Regional Effect, Lair Actions, and Madness Effects of Demon Lords
I built this as an all around companion for my own games and I would like to share this powerful tool with the community. We are currently accepting beta-testers for this program!
