The online PDF supplement to Dungeon #144 is now available. This supplement contains all the maps from the issue, as well as player handouts and NPC illustrations.
Thanks very much! it is well appreciated, and, judging by the posts, that we get everyweek, very much anticipated :)
Thanks the quality is amazing!
Woot! You guys rock! Question though, any intent to provide further conversion notes for FR and Eberron? Or even better conversion notes for Pathfinder?

I think they said no official conversion notes for pathfinder, but Eric (L. Boyd) would join conversations here on the board...
FOR STAP, i hope the notes would still come!

w00t!!!
Thanks guys, you rule!
The hope and plan is to get as many more of these guys up and online this week and next as we can. Wish us luck!
Thank you for the Dungeon 144 supplement! I greatly appreciate the work, and I am eager to see the rest!
Wonderful!
Thanks gang!
So what's the status of the rest of the Dungeon Supplements?They're bottlenecked in the layout stage; I'll see if I can get the rest o them moving today, though.
What's going on with the Conversion Notes, too? Will we start seeing the rest of them too?

I mentioned this in another thread, but the Conversion notes will not be continuing, it looks like. That's actual content that uses Wizards of the Coast intellectual property, and our license to use that property is now officially over. It's unfortunate, but we did get up and online everything that Keith and Eric did get to us—we're not sitting on any "unpublished" conversion notes. It's VERY unlikely that we'll be able to post any more of them, but fortunately there's been several threads posted by readers here that have taken up the mantle of suggesting conversions for these campaigns.

Not that it really affects me, as a Greyhawker, but it seems rather petty if WotC won't let you post conversion notes for adventures you guys published. Would allowing you to publish them cost them any sales, or establish some sort of bad legal precedent?

What does this mean for the online supplements (art, maps, etc)? Or is there a distinction?

It would establish a precedent of cooperation as opposed to exploitation -- the Hasbro Overlords would have them flayed.
OK, a bit unprovoked, but WotC/Hasbro hasn't been working real hard lately to keep my loyalty :)
Honestly? I'm only interested in the maps. There can't be much of anything left in Savage Tide that needs adapting yet I'm totally in to using the untagged maps for battlemats.
Attractive maps are 88% useless if only the DM gets to see them.
So who should we politely mail to ask them to let you publish the conversion notes?
It'd only make them start a digital initiative to get us to buy them (form WotC, not Paizo) at $10/page... or paragraph :/

Mayhaps some smugglers are hiding stolen diamonds in the long delayed Dungeon Supplements. Would a gang of meddling kids and their talking dog have a chance to free them up?

And so does the situation. Trust me, it's insanely frustrating to me too, but apart from me taking the files home and buying Adobe Reader and teaching myself how to do layout so I can create the PDF... there's not much more that I myself can do at this stage but continue to remind folks here that the art and map supplements haven't yet been created.

Eek! In my business, guys who 'volunteer' to do that sort of 'extra credit' suddenly become SMEs (Subject Matter Experts), and it becomes an additional duty! Like doing a good job washing the dishes when your wife is sick; all-the-sudden it's your regularly scheduled chore--forever! Don't want to go down that thorny path!

I can guarentee you that I WON'T be doing this step myself. I'm already doing 60–70 hour work weeks on Pathfinder. Adding a few more would send me gibbering into the rafters, and management would have to buy a tranquilizer dart gun to get me back under control.
a T-rex in the rafters ? Now THAT would be a sight to behold...
/jk,
take it easy JJ, after all, the maps and printouts are nothing that a visit to the good old copy shop with a xerox cannot resolve either. or just do some handouts of your own at home with the PC... photoshop, word, some exotic fonds.... can work wonders !
...and to be honest, how did us old folks (thirty-somethings ) manage to even GM before the advent of the internet and omni-present online content, in the digital stone age ?
PS - Btw what size of tranquilizer dart to you use for a t-rex ? Single- or double-pint load ? And can you deliver it without use of an anti-tank missile launcher ?
