NOOB - How do you actually import the Files?


 

Hi all,
So I downloaded the software and the ZIP file with "all" the added tables.
What do I do now to for them to be seen by SW?

Thanks,
Avi


 

Please clarify,? what is SW?

software - tablesmith....
I thought unzipping the tables in the "Tables" directory will allow them to be seen by the program.

Are your preferences pointing to that directory? To see how to know this, see below.

You need to put the tables into folders (i.e.; categories) for them to show up; TS doesn't see any tables that are just in the "tables" folder.

So F:\TableSmith\Tables\ElfNames.tab wouldn't work, but something like?F:\TableSmith\Tables\ElfStuff\ElfNames.tab would. You'd select the "ElfStuff" category and then see "ElfNames" in the table list.

Thank you all for helping me.
It turns out I did not save the new file locations (as pointed out by Scot)
Maybe I clicked the "Set to default" after selecting the locations.

Enjoying playing with this nice shiny toy ;-)

Avi,

Enjoy; TS is, by far, the most valuable tool I have ever used as a game master. I have used it for over 18 years. I am not the expert that some others are, but I get by. So, know that even if you don't become an expert, it is still very valuable.

I would back up your tables and your TS config file. It will save you a lot of heartache later.

Cheers,

Scott
