library sharing

[aellongm]

Okay, I'm probably really thick, but I can't figure out which modules I'd need to share with my players, and which ones I don't.

I'm running a PFS session, and someone gave me a module containing all the maps, npc's and such. I have all the PFRPG modules.

Am I right in assuming that I need to allow the players access to The rules and everything that gives them character options (Spells, feats and stuff) but not the actual adventure module itself?

At a high level, yes - don't allow access to the adventure module. Share maps/handouts etc. from the adventure on an individual basis.

For the player side it's usual to share spells, basic rules, etc. modules. However, as there are many community based modules a player might use to add "stuff" to their character sheet - the main ones being feats/class/race abilities: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?16074-List-of-Modules&p=120187&viewfull=1#post120187

You can either ask the players what modules they've used in the creation of their PC. But this might just be a case of trial and error - and they can always request access to a library they have, just for them, once in the game.

Just allow access to some of the popular player based modules, don't force load them. Restrict access to adventure/GM modules.

I've moved this to the Pathfinder forum as it's not a technical support issue and is fairly Pathfinder specific question.

Thanks for the answer. And sorry about that.
