Introduction

Using Adventure Muncher

Overview

DDB Importer can import D&D Beyond Adventures - these are the scenes and journal entries found in books.

This requires the use of another tool called Adventure Muncher, which runs as a standalone product on your computer.

It will allow you to download your D&D Beyond Adventures and transform them into a file which DDB Importer can import.

Things to know

  • Configuration for things like scene formatting, walls, lights, monster locations, and journal notes are done hand, and the configuration for these is called the meta data. It's available under the Fan Content Policy here, and Adventure Muncher will download the latest version when it starts up.
  • New books are not automatically available and are normally made available 1-2 weeks after the D&D Beyond release and the first pass at some meta data collection has been made.
  • When you import an adventure, it will use the monsters that are in your DDB Monsters compendium (or which ever compendium you have linked in the settings). It uses the unique ID from DDB that is the in the flag data of the imported monster to match the correct one. If the monsters are not in the compendium it will attempt to import them if you support me on Patreon or run your own proxy.
