If I purchased Rise of the Runelords off of Steam does this mean I will not get the PDF from Paizo even after linking account?

Not in the short term; however, we are working on an update to our patch system that should allow this once we complete that development. For that reason, you'll be looking at a delay at getting the PDF of probably about 1 month and then all purchases will be available for instant synchronization between Steam -> FG -> Paizo.Quote:

Any chance Smiteworks will get a head start creating FG content for Starfinder before it's released? Is Starfinder on the FG roadmap?
Doug did mention it is something they would want to do in an earlier post but the conversion would take time
Thank you for the quick response this stuff is fantastic can't say enough about how happy I am with it. My players are going to love it. Keep up the great work.
So, after waiting an interminable about of time that seemed not unlike eternity, I excitedly purchased the Core Rules, APG, and RotRL AP yesterday only to find out that my wife had plans for me this week. I am sitting at a hotel totally surrounded by no computer and unable to load this up and see it for myself.
I envy you all, and I'm pretty sure she hates me.
She doesn't hate you, mate, it's for your own good....really
First of all, this is really great news that I am seeing 4 months late (been away from the forums since last June). The community PFRPG stuff has actually been wonderful, but what I've seen so far of this seems to really provide what I hope is an easy, useful, and attractive alternative.
I do have some issues preparing to give SmiteWorks another chunk of my hard-earned money, however...
I followed the directions to sync my FG store acct to my Paizo store acct. I have RotRL, KM and a few other things on my acct at Paizo as hardcopy and pdf. But the FG store did not seem to change the price quoted for items that I have already purchased in hardcopy and pdf from Paizo.
Also, seems odd the directions for managing all that were found by me buried somewhere in the respective website forums instead of even stickied somewhere. If I missed it, okay, my bad - but I look and I am not even sure I could locate the same articles again.
Can someone who knows where the "official" word is put a sticky link to how to sync accounts and get the discount (I think it was essentially cost of pdf knocked off the FG module price)? Should those show in the store or will it for some reason not show the discount until checkout?
And anyone know why it showed only 4 items sync'd across when I for certain have all 6 episodes of Kingmaker and the anniversary Rise of the Runelords? And how do I fix that?
Again, thanks to SmiteWorks and Paizo for making this happen.
Can't answer all of that, but for the discounts, just add the item to your cart, the discount will show up when you do.Quote:

Thanks for the feedback on the sticky info. The discount feature was added last minute once I saw that they were sending back the PDF info. Originally the method for getting a discount was only going to be available on the Paizo site and therefore this stuff wasn't planned out more fully.
An update from my side: I worked together with Erik Keith from the Paizo customer support, as further purchases of PF stuff again did not sync. Erik said he found the issue, so I hope this will be resolved soon for the future. You guys are doing an excellent job all over.
Done with this
The issue with the PDFs is identified and we expect to hear back from Paizo about this tomorrow. I will be unavailable tomorrow but we should be able to have this resolved by Friday evening. Once resolved, you may have to use the Sync page to resend the purchases again, but you won't lose anything other than a delay in getting the PDFs.
Well now. That was a bit dramatic.Quote:

I love the FG community with all my heart and soul.
I am not sure there is a reason to taunt a fellow player. Since their pöst is baffling and the person in question has been a member for a while, I'd much rather know whats up and if we a a community can mend it.
FWIW I did manage to get the Core Rules and Bestiary 1 with the discount since I already own the PDFs. I got the Core Rules Tuesday and Bestiary Wednesday. :)
If you sync your account and send us proof showing that you owned those PDFs before you bought it here, we can issue you a refund for those equal to the PDF. Email us at [email protected].Quote:

Note that I will be unavailable most if today since I have a family event. I will be able to assist anyone later this evening when I return.
Question - I'm considering getting the Rise of the Runelords Anniversary Edition FG addon on my next payday. Does this mean that (eventually) I will also be able to pickup the PDF from Paizo for 'free'? :)
Yes.Quote:

Ok :(Quote:

There is currently an issue with the synchronisation that will be fixed during the course of this day. Once it is, you can just hit the "send purchases to Paizo" button again and the corresponding product will appear. If you cannot wait until then, you can also contact Paizo customer support to manually add it - although they won't be in until 19:00 CET. Since they are fixing it anyway, I'd just sleep over it and the synchronisation should work properly tomorrow.Quote:

I just tested this for my Kingmaker 3 Purchase:Quote:

Thanks. I sent the necessary info over to the devs over at Paizo and I will have to wait and see what they say. I will let you know if we need another test.Quote:

excellent work! I bought the core and am loving it! will slowly start get the rest.
I can wait on the PDF :)
thanks again for such a wonderful product!
I went ahead and took the plunge and bought the Runelords FG Addon but I guess it takes a while to show up in my Paizo downloads.Quote:

Unfortunately, it appears not. See previous quote from Doug.Quote:

The Bestiary monsters are unbelievable and the links to every ability and feat is really useful. I used to have a bunch of tabs open on my browser with monster pages on the SRD/PRD to quickly check what things did, now it's all handled client side.
I'll most definitely be picking up each of the books as they come out.
My only slight gripe (I'm British I can't be 100% happy) is if you expand the chat window horizontally the shadow from the right side gets repeated, I tend to play accross two screens with the chat window using 1/2 of one screen so notice it a lot.
This as well.Quote:
