Anyone heard if this will be converted and sold on FG? I checked the DM's Guild and they are only selling the PDF version. D&D Beyond has a conversion up for sale but I'd rather keep my money here when possible.

Haven't heard of this one at all.

WotC put it out as a way to raise money for the Extra Life Charity. You get a new race, a few NPCs and quite a bit of fluff and lore to use with ToA.

I think it's one of the ToA enhancements that the Guild has published from the first set of the guild Adepts (?). These are non-WotC people who were given early access to ToA to make ancillary content for ToA. Don't think any of them made FG versions of what they did.

Cellar of Death came with an FG module. The rest didn't have FG versions.

Tortle is an official WotC product though.

Making the race was simple enough using the in game tools. Though it took me a minute to get the natural armor to work.

Tortles look like lots of fun. I'd love to see these included in an FG module

WOTC sent us the PDF for this and gave us permission to release it on the FG Store. 60% of the revenue generated from the module will go directly to the Extra Life charity that Wizards of the Coast selected. We will include full details of that on the store page once it is ready.

Awesome!. Already snagged it on DDB but I'll pick it up here for ease of use in FG and to give a little more to Extra Life

So I got the Steam version of the Tortle Package today, and while it appears in my DLC list, it does not download or update via the launcher into my vault with all of my other modules. My license is still there, yes, but the content just isn't there. You might need to look into this, as it is currently a $10 payment for nothing. ;)

I suspect that you may not have linked your Steam and Smiteworks accounts. Proceed as follows



Go to FG Settings.
Click on Manage button under Purchases.
Enter your FG login information.
Click on the Link to Steam button, and use the web page to link your Steam account to your FG account.
Click on the Login button (or OK button)

As I said, my license is there... which means it's linked. I'll check it just in case, but if linking being "disconnected" starts to become a routine thing, you'd best warn people via email from now on.

Not sure what you mean by this. Your license key will appear in settings (if that is what you mean) whether your accounts are linked or not.

Not in my experience it doesn't. When this change was made, it wiped my entire license and I was forced to re-enter it and link when this change was introduced, so from my perspective this isn't the case. Regardless, it was all linked fine in this instance, but it would not appear until I hit the "Refresh Steam Purchases" button on the Steam Link page. This is the first time I've had to do this, which is rather odd.

All purchases are linked to a username and not to a license. You are still required to have a license, but you will need to use the Manage button under Purchases and then login to fantasygrounds.com. Looking at our back-end system, I see it linked in your account. Does everything else show up in your Library > Modules for activation except for the Tortles package? There should be two different packages to activate.

You can send the following to [email protected] and we can assist further:
1. Screenshot of launch screen
2. Screenshot of Settings screen
3. Screenshot of Library > Modules screen

As I said, yes it is all linked and downloaded fine now. The only thing I had to do was click the "Refresh Steam Purchases" button on the link page to force it to realise I had the Tortle Package in my list of DLC products. I found this odd however, considering that everything else was connected and reading fine. But yes, everything is there now, even though I had to go and force the system to open its eyes.

Got it. It is "supposed" to automatically sync without forcing a refresh but I believe we've seen that same thing happen once or twice before.

I had purchased ToA and Tortle on Steam and did update to go up to v3.3.3 from v3.3.2. Everything updated, including the steam purchased content, but the two new purchases didn't show up.

Like some others, I had to go into settings and Refresh Steam Purchases before they would be picked up.

In the old system (before linking steam), new purchases were picked up automatically.

Would be nice if that worked again.
