Gotcha. I'll take a look at both and see. Thanks again for the help!

once you get past the initial few hours you're probably beyond any Boilerplate specifics and should just ask questions in #system-development
https://github.com/MetaMorphic-Digital/universal-tabletop-system is a true bare bones system for reference
https://github.com/MetaMorphic-Digital/draw-steel/ is a more complicated system that uses all modern APIs
I would not recommend using dnd5e or pf2e as references, as both are working on updating from legacy APIs and have a bunch of over-complicated implementations

Sure thing. I feel I'm in the initial hours, but I'll definitely take more generic questions there. Thanks for the references, I've been struggling to find a good reference that isn't super complicated as everyone suggests dnd5e 😩
That and everything else uses template.json instead of DataModels. Would like to learn the new way rather than the old.

yeah unfortunately most of the system dev guidance was written during v8/v9/v10

The V13 branch was made. It seems to be working without issues

Are there links to the update V13 Boilerplate Guide/Utility?

Took a bit of tinkering but I figured out how to use the FBI (Foundry boilerplate initilizer), thank you again for this

Hey there, I have a small question. I am trying to develop a system for V12 using the Boilerplate system and this tutorial:
https://foundryvtt.wiki/en/development/guides/SD-tutorial/SD04-templatejson
I am at the attached step, but I cannot seem to find where templates.json is in my file structure. In Foundry, the system loads up fine, so I am confused about wher it is
Any help would be greatly appreciated
sharp belfry
Template.json does not exist anymore, as it was replaced by the data model
hybrid ibex
That being? (I do apologise for stupid questions, I am quite literally learning as I go)
sharp belfry
hybrid ibex
Understood, and where are those located in the files?
sharp belfry
part of it will be on the system.json and part on the module/data
hybrid ibex
Another question, I have not made any changes to the code yet. Are the sheets supposed to be empty like this? In the code, I think I see stuff for attributes and levels
sharp belfry
No, there is probably an error happening. Check the console log
hybrid ibex
I don't really see any errors, other than this one. For your information, I am running this off of Node, cause I needed a V12 and V13 instance of Foundry
Drag and drop does work in another sheet though
sharp belfry
I am asking because as far as I remember, the boilerplate was ready for the v12 on the PR branch without any issues
Do you have a hard requirement for v12?
Because we have a branch for v13 here: https://github.com/asacolips-projects/boilerplate/pull/53
hybrid ibex
No, not really, but it's the only version I found a proper wiki for
I am pretty much a complete beginner with this stuff, only know some Python for visual novels
sharp belfry
the wiki itself is outdated, as you can see from the template.json
sharp belfry
Right now, I would not recommend developing a system based on a version that is already outdated.
Especially considering that v14 is probably comming out on the next few months
I would point it directly to v13
Actually, I would even point it to v14 right now, but it could be more complicated for you, given you don't have experience with Foundry development
