Oh. Poo.
Oh. Poo.
I, for one, am totally expecting the next 72 hours of sales to rival any three-day span Smiteworks has had.Quote:

There a few minutes early. :)
Congrats on official Pathfinder support!!
They are now available in the store. Be sure to check the videos first if you have any questions or post here with thoughts or questions. As with most things, we do the best we can before we release but we almost always find stuff to tweak later on. I'll start a new thread in the 3.5E/Pathfinder section for any bug reports.
Here is the official newsletter announcement for those of you who are not signed up for it.

Any idea on an eta of Paizo having them available onsite with the discounts?
I asked for an updated ETA on that and will let you know what I hear. Initially it was going to be ready at launch and it delayed the release here. I know at least some part of the system is already set up over there, but I don't have visibility into one other steps might be remaining. The last estimate I heard was "2 weeks" but that was close to 2 weeks ago.
They put up a blog for it, so hopefully very very soon.
Just as a headsup - I tried to sync my purchases from here with the Paizo account. The steps worked, but the PDFs do not appear in my paizo account. I take it there is a delay?
Similar experience - following an email from Paizo to sync my Accounts ... none of the Paizo purchase pdf products (Core Rulebook etc etc) are actually available as FG products via Paizo.
Did you get a positive response from our site that the products synced successfully? I will check in with our contacts at Paizo to see if they can locate your synced purchases. This is all new functionality on the Paizo site, so you folks are our guinea pigs. :)Quote:

This is the reply I got from your side. It says it synced.
Just a clarification, I have most of the Pathfinder pdf's bought from a Humble Bundle in my Paizo account.
I sync'd my Paizo purchases with Fantasy Grounds and it says "link added" for several of them.
If I go to add say the Pathfinder Core Rulebook in the FG store and it is listed at 49.99, at what point should it show the discount and how is the discount calculated?
Is it based off of the current price of the pdf on Paizo.com, 9.99 for the Core rulebook for example, or is it based on what I paid for it when I bought it(ridiculously cheap per book as part of the Humble Bundle Im sure)?
Thanks
Getting the same thing - so to be clear here, for stuff we already own, we need to go to Paizo (once they have their end up), buy a discounted FG upgrade from their site, and then sync again to get the pull to work?Quote:

That answered my question as well, thanks Doug.
Do you need to have your client key logged here if you bought the client via steam?
The free PDF won't currently get assigned for Steam DLC purchases. Even if you bought the client on Steam, you can still buy DLC from here or Steam and so in this case if you want the PDF, you should buy directly on our site.Quote:

For those that own the pdf but putchased the FG product from the website now, will there be a price credit once the api is configured?
I was thinking more for the paizo side, I own the PDFs already, so I was wondering if I needed to steam version synced to your storefront for a FG purchase at paizo to load correctly?
Thanks for the clarification - I am sure we wouldn't be as confused if Paizo's end was working. :)Quote:

Wondering if any Doug or another SmiteWorks employee might be able to comment on wether or not the alternate classes will be added? One of my players is a samurai, and I'm interested in running a ninja. Also, unchained rules would be an incredible addition.
Last question - will there be any consideration given to discounting bundles, as is done with the 5e content?
I just thought up a way I might be able to hack the discount into place on our site. Give me a bit and cross your fingers that I don't break anything. :)
Yes, we eventually want to add all the splat books; however, there is a big back catalog of those. In our 3.3 update, we updated the system to allow you to build your own classes and races directly in the program and the existing modules should provide a very good example on how you can do this. That will hopefully keep your group satisfied until the official versions come out - and maybe even after they come out.Quote:

The discount showed up in the cart for me. I can't finish the purchase (my end, not yours, it's not in my budget this month unfortunately), so I can't test that far.
I just did the sync and tried to buy the FG products I already own on Paizo.com. The discounts applied correctly to all products in the FG store when added to the basket. However, when I go to checkout and pay through PayPal, the undiscounted total is being shown in PayPal. I got cold feet at that point and didn't proceed to pay.Presumably, the discounted total should be transferring to PayPal to pay?
Yup - it's working; Paizo's website is a horribly slow thing to navigate and not terrifically helpful - thanks Doug.Quote:
