I find trying to extract layers of the PDF maps exhausting and unnecessarily difficult in using an AP (which I'm a current subscriber of).
Most aren't situated as rural as myself. I am finding I'd love to run a couple games/week on Roll20 but the conversion time is prohibitive to doing so.
I guess my main question is how can I create online campaigns using Pathfinder APs and adapt the maps without a major conversion process? Why can't I just have access to each layer without a difficult process of separating the labeled layer from the 'map version' layer?
I apologize for resurrecting an old thread. I have gone as far as getting the print editions so I feel I should be able to quickly and easily download the PDF and copy/select/paste a map or image to my online campaign. So far the complexity has kept me from even bothering to get into running an AP online, that it's actually easier to search and download someone else's low res map from an AP from the net than to use your quality hi res map that I paid for from your AP. I find this to be anti productive to my wishes to get back into GMing (after 30+ years). How can I remedy this (other than unsubscribe or make my own unlabeled maps)?
Thanks for considering your online GMs as well (a growing subset)

As someone who really enjoys the immersion of a game I want to recommend this Kickstarter as being high on sound quality and extremely affordable.
He rebooted this kickstarter tonight after lowering the price, shortening the time until fulfillment and even adding separate categories for those who may like ambient (background) music and sound but not the SFX (weapons, traps, monsters, etc.) with more a la carte levels.

Here's the track list so far (upper levels allow backers to collaborate with Wes, ie. I'm in for $100 Monster level to create (10) Pathfinder-TYPE Goblin tracks for Monster sounds - available to all Comlpete Reward levels as well!):

Here's the link for those interested in adding sounds to their live OR online gaming:

(NOTE: collection is one word in case you are seeing it split like me)
You can also just search for it on kickstarter by the name of this thread.

I was in on his first Kickstarter (as were over 1300 others) and was VERY happy with what I got. As a Complete Rewards backer for $50 is 266 MP3's (not factoring in stretch goals or upper backer levels) I believe. And Ambients and Music are 10 minutes each. That's less than $0.19/MP3. There are also $25 levels for those who only want Weapons & Spells, Monsters & Traps OR Sounds & Music.
Enjoy!

Please forgive me if this is covered elsewhere. I looked for 30 minutes and so not see it anywhere. I asked a related question regarding the bones but this is Pathfinder-specific...

Why is there no Beastiary decks? (one side artwork of the beast to show players and the reverse side specs/feats/etc. as well as quick lookup page number/volume)?

I'd imagine one deck per beastiary and it would be a must-have for most GMs (IMHO).

I'd see folks paying for Beastiary decks before they would pay for magic item decks?

Please tell me if there are such decks as I'm looking to buy!

PS. I'd also love to see someone make a Pathfinder-specific (converted) stats cards for Bones line (that so many have invested in).

Thanks!
