Are there any plans to convert the standalone Pathfinder modules for FG?

I'm not sure that I understand this question, but I'm hoping that it is directly related to the question that I am wondering about, and which I was on the verge of opening a new thread for.

(Actually, after composing more of what I planned to post, I came to the realization that I still need to create that new thread, or go back and do a better search... so I deleted it, and I'm left with the following question.)

Anyway, could you please clarify your question, for me at least? What is a 'standalone' Pathfinder module?

Thanks,

D'Oh! I was getting my Pathfinder 'module' mixed up with my Fantasy Grounds 'module'... Always the problem with the overloading of terms.

Thanks.

This would be pretty awesome. Not everyone is into the 2-3 year commitment of an AP!

I have been GMing a game of Plunder and Peril which is great fun, but it's been tedious to convert.
Once it's done I might give it a strong once-over and see if SmiteWorks and Paizo are interested...

Not sure why Paizo's standalone modules don't get more love, they do a really amazing job with their content usually.

I'm running 'Ire of the Storm', & can echo bmos's comment that it was a ton of work to scan & enter everything, would have jumped at the chance to buy the module pre-made.
It's a brilliant module btw, one of the 64-page 'mini-campaigns' from the later run. So well balanced with RP, combat, hex-crawl, dungeon-delve, tons of NPCs with a tight story.

If anyone gets the urge to convert the 'semi-sequel' - 'Seers of the drowned city', will definitely buy it.

'Dragon's Demand' is another 'mini-campaign' module, where 'Plunder & Peril' & 'Gallows of Madness' each consist of 3 mini-adventures, to be played as a min-campaign or individually.
Last but not least, the 'Emerald Spire Super-Dungeon', probably needs no more explanation.

Sadly, my understanding is that the Modules line always sold much more poorly than the Adventure Path line for Paizo, I imagine the same is true on Fantasy Grounds & probably the reason they've only done the one:

Yea, I'm converting Cradle of Night right now and it's a huge pain in the ***. I'd rather spend my time running the game but I'm not ready to commit to an AP.
