New user having problem with D&D 4th ed Ruleset

[Galach]

Good evening folks.

First of all, I had reseached the foruns for this answer, but as far as I went, I could not get it. So I am asking some advice here. Any tips, links or words will be welcome, even if it is some like "this situation was discussed here", or something like taht.

I just purchased FG II Ultimate Ed. today, installed it in my Windows 8 system without any error messages. I played arround with D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder modules a bit, looked briefly at the demo adventure (A Tale of Dinor) end everything went well.

But when I started to try the 4th ed. ruleset, I could not find the rulesets to be activated in the Library, just some icons and a critical hit table - no books or references. Plus, when I am navigating through the demo adventure, sometimes I receive this error message:

Ruleset Error: Database type mismatch for 'subclass'
Ruleset Error: No vertical anchor defined for 'subclass_label'
Ruleset Error: No vertical anchor defined for 'subclass_label'

Any ideias?

Thank you all, and have a nice nigth!

You will not find library modules for D&D 4e as this is not made possible due to Wizards of the Coast's release strategy with 4e. With 3.0/3.5 there was the Open Gaming License (OGL) and so anything that was in the OGL could be distributed by other people freely as long as they adhered to the OGL. There is no such OGL for 4e.

If you have a DDI subscription you can use the community created parser to scrape lots and lots of data from the online D&D compendium: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17485

It is well worth getting a DDI subscription just for one month and to parse as much info as you can in that month.

I'm not sure about the errors you are getting in the demo campaign - where exactly do you get these errors?

The demo campaign is probably just a minor bug in the data file for the Dinor campaign. I'll take a look.

Thanks for the heads up.

Cheers,
