Sounds good. But is this really ready? The DA store website says "With the release of Fantasy Grounds v2, Digital Adventures is working to convert our ruleset products to that format. At the bottom of each product is a statement indicating what version of Fantasy Grounds it is compatible with. Currently, all adventure products work in both versions of Fantasy Grounds, though in v2 some internal links may have to be reestablished."

Sounds like DA is still "working to convert our ruleset". Is this the case or can I download and things will work fine?

The CSRD is not a ruleset anymore, it has been broken down into modules for use in FGII. We still have actual rulesets that still need converting. I would not have been able to send you a discount coupon if the product was not for sale.

I would not have posted the product for sale if it was not ready.

I didn't read this entire thread (it's 80+ posts and counting so maybe it was already discussed) but I didn't know if the ruleset was changed to a module. Then when I saw recent posts about bugs here, I decided I'd ask. Anyway, thanks for the info.

Anyone besides me having issues with not all the modules being visible on this?

Are you saying that you see some of the CSRD modules but not all of them in the list of modules? With 4 in the default and 7 in the CSRD, you may need to scroll down to see them in the module window. Otherwise, I can't think of any reason why you wouldn't see them all if you have placed them all in your modules folder.

Sorry, I was rather imprecise in this.

I can see all of them in the module area, however, if I look in the 'Library' area to actually use the content, I don't see them all.

In the module area, I have the following settings (These are all DA products)

Complete SRD Basic Rules (Allow)
Complete SRD Epic (Blocked)
Complete SRD Monsters (Blocked)
Complete SRD Spells (Allow)
Complete SRD Divine (Allow)
Complete SRD Magic Items (Allow)
Complete SRD Psionics (Blocked)

However, when I open up my library (as the GM), I only see Complete SRD Spells, Complete SRD Divine and Complete SRD Basic Rules. The Complete SRD Magic Items is not available to me, nor are any of the blocked ones. I'd like to think that as the GM, I'd have access to all of these.

Any thoughts?

Did you open (activate) the modules so they are open? They won't be available unless you "open" them. Do so by double clicking the module thumbnail (green or blue book) this should cause the brown book to be open. If the brown book is not open then you will not see the module in the library. Even if you do have the book open you may need to scroll down to see all the CSRD books on the library screen. The allowed/blocked/Force are rights for players who connect to you and have nothing to do with activating the modules.

Funny you should mention that; I figured that on my own about an hour ago and hadn't had a chance to post back. So now I can see all of the ones I have in the Library view but I when I tested with a lite license, one of the ones I have 'allowed' is still not showing.

It should be two of the modules are not allowed. Both the Complete SRD Monsters and Complete SRD Magic Items are DM only modules (the ones with the green books). DM only modules can only be seen by the host reguardless of access settings. I didn't mention it but the permissions only affect client or common rule modules.

Ok, well, I think that explains the rest of it. Thanks muchly for the time.
