Roleplaying - How to import and export templates in Lore?

The import and export feature is finally here! You asked for it, and now it’s available.

You can now create templates , share them with your fellow GMs, and import them directly into Lore , our worldbuilding software .

What’s the purpose of Importing and Exporting in Lore?

The goal of this new feature is to automatically generate a set of pre-filled templates with relevant fields . This allows you to draw inspiration from suggested structures to enrich your own universe .

Of course, you can modify , duplicate , or delete templates as needed.

Note: Content will not be exported with the templates. For now, only the base template structure can be exported — meaning just the form.

For example, if you’re creating templates for your next homebrew campaign , your fellow game masters can start from the same base. Just share your complete template structure with them. You can also reuse your templates across multiple campaigns .

How to export Templates?

Exporting your templates is simple:

1. Open the relevant Lory file and create your templates .
2. Once your structure is complete, click the menu with the three dots in the top-left corner of your screen.
3. Select “ Export Templates ”.

You’ll then be able to save your file locally as a Lore Kit .

Later, it will appear in the My Workshop section of the launcher, where you can find all your exported template files .

Exporting templates saves time and helps you get started with the software more easily. Templates guide you and provide usage examples.

If you’ve created templates for a Dungeons & Dragons campaign or any other RPG, you can share this template base with other Amsel Suite users.

How to import Templates?

Want to reuse your own templates or use a Lore Kit someone shared with you?

1. Open an existing Lory file or create a new one .
2. Click the menu with the three dots in the top-left corner.
3. Select “ Import Templates ” and choose the file from your local machine . It must be a LoreKit file.

Tips for importing your Lore Kit :

• You can add templates to a Lory file that’s already in progress.
• Make sure there isn’t already a template with the same name — it will be overwritten.
• Currently, all templates from a Lore Kit file will be imported. Selective import isn’t available yet.
• The provided templates are examples , and you’re free to modify and adapt them to your needs .

Download the 30 “Starter Kit” templates

To help you get started with Lore and build your next campaign , base templates are now available. They were created by the founders of Amsel Suite .

By downloading the file directly via the launcher , you’ll get access to a Lore Kit with over 30 templates .

After creating your new Lory file, you can use , modify , or delete the templates as needed.

To use the Starter Kit templates, simply:

• Download them via the bazaar in the launcher
• Save them locally on your computer from My Workshop
