    Brand new download and install of v 2.4.0
    Just updated HL to v 3.8 and the pathfinder files to v 6.1
    all the official Hero Lab pathfinder files are installed
    no user files are in use

    I try to import a file with trolls, advanced giant trolls, rock trolls

    I had imported stock heroes into Hero Lab - one troll and one rock troll

    I duplicated the rock troll and applied one size advance and one advanced creature (simple templates) to it

    I then did the same thing to the troll

    So, now I have a troll, a rock troll, a larger, advanced troll, and a larger, advanced rock troll.

    I then exported to a d20pro file using save as -- d2opro -- all characters

    When I try to import (as I have done many times before), I get the following message:

    Code:
    For input string: "5 (Acid or Sonic)"
    Edit the hero export file.
    Find "5 (Acid or Sonic)"

    Issue
    Code:
    <special name="Regeneration 5 (Acid or Fire)">Heal HP quickly and cannot die.</special>
    This is the only line that has an issue with the importer. d20Pro is trying to assign values and there is no "OR" Elemental Resistance function.

    To Fix
    replace with...
    Code:
    <special name="Regeneration 5">Heal HP quickly and cannot die. This ability does not work if damaged with acid or fire.</special>

    Hello friends,

    I too have a Herol Lab (Pathfinder) import problem.
    When importing a Half-orc Barbarian I get an import error.
    See error below:
    Code:
    This plugin is invalid.  Please recompile it using the latest API and try again.
   Caused by: Unexpected exception
   Caused by: String index out of range: -28.
    I have attached the hld20pro file for your convenience.



    Thanks in advance!
