I'm looking at the Pathfinder Skull & Shackles adventure path in the FG store but see that only the first four books are available. It has been some time (8 months) since the 4th was released so wondering if anyone knew if Paizo is planning to release the last two books?

The PF products are converted by approved community developers. They convert the modules in their spare time and according to their own schedules. Usually no announcements on suspected release dates are given until the product is in final approval or actually ready for release.

It is not a terrible experience to convert the PDFs yourself. A bit of work, addmittedly. I've done it for a smaller Paizo module and will proably do the same for S&S 5-6 if not avilable when I get there. No, I am not offering to do the work for others (my work is not that good). My point is that it isn't unreasonable to try it yourself.

Grab a small PDF adventure and give it a try. There is a bunch of info on how to do it here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?44133-PDF-Conversion-to-an-FG-Module-Information-Index

I know many people don't like to read directions, so here is something I found out way too late in my module-entry learning-curve:
Select text, ctrl + j. This will remove any line breaks in the copied text (saves an absurd amount of time when copying from PDFs with formatting that inserts line breaks into copied text).

Did not know about this one. Thank you. That was the biggest pain of the whole process.

Thanks bmos and mhossom, all good tips and information. I’m a fantasy ground beginner on the verge of becoming an intermediate, completing the books would definitely make me step up my skills. It would seem to be a good transition step into building my own material too.

I gave this a try and all it did was invoke a Java Script Debugger. Any suggestions?

EDIT: Never mind. I did ctrl-J in Wordpad and it worked great. Thanks again for the tip.

Strange, it works great in FG for me. I just highlight whatever text that has extra linebreaks and press ctrl and j.
Totally removed Notepad++ from my workflow (except for xml edits).

Hopefully this project is still underway. Enjoyed running Skulls & Shackles together with a friend, and would love to see the continuation. Much thanks to the person(s) involved in putting the module together.

I was just coming here to ask the same thing. It's been well over six months since S&S 1-4 were released. Having just recently worked on entering River into Darkness to support some things my group did, entering two entire APs is not something I look forward to doing, unless I absolutely have to do it. We are only about half way through book 2 so I have some time before I'll need them. Hopefully they'll be released before we get to the point of needing them.

Skulls and Shackles was a super fun AP! I'm happy to see that more people will be able to play the whole series on FG soon!
