[Hero Lab] Version 6.15 of the Pathfinder files for Hero Lab are now available! Blood of Fiends & Isles of the Shackles!

[Mathias Gehl]

Version 6.15 of the Pathfinder files for Hero Lab are now available from the automatic updates mechanism within Hero Lab.

This update adds Blood of Fiends as the first book in our new Player's Companion: Golarion #3 package. This package is available for $4.99, and will get 1-2 other books from the Player's Companion line added in future updates (the exact books are still being determined).

This update also adds Isles of the Shackles as a free update for anyone who already owns the Campaign Setting #7 package. This package is available for $4.99, and already includes Lands of the Linnorm Kings, Book of the Damned Volume 3: Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Dragon Empires Gazetteer, Mythical Monsters Revisited, and Distant Worlds.

For those with the Bestiary packages, many of the variant monsters from these books have now been added.

Even more in this update - content from the Skull & Shackles Player's Guide and player content from Pathfinder #55: The Wormwood Mutiny is available to all users.

For those of you interested in the various multi-companion archtypes (Broodmaster, Pack Lord, Beast Master), those are now fully implemented in this update.

If you're not familiar with Hero Lab yet, please head over to the Hero Lab page of our website. There, you can download Hero Lab in demo mode. The only things you're restricted from doing in demo mode are saving and printing (although you can view the print preview), so that you can get a good look at our program before you decide to purchase it.

Another way to try out Hero Lab before you purchase it is with our Hero Lab for the Pathfinder Beginner Box program. This is a separate program from Hero Lab itself, and it only covers the beginner box, but it's free, and it allows you to save and print the characters you create.

Edit: Just updated and not getting the skull and shackles traits showing up.

I'm not seeing an ability to choose tiefling heritages. Is this something that's included in this update (and I'm just not seeing it)? If not, will it be included in a future update? The heritage thing seems to be something Paizo'll focus a bit on in future products (Blood of Angels and Blood of the Night) and so it seems to be a good thing to include. :)

GeraintElberion, have you turned on the Skull & Shackles option in the configure hero window's settings (ctrl-k)?

Ravenmantle, The display of the tiefling heritages is currently bugged - the workaround is to make sure that the Council of Thieves option is turned on in the configure hero window's settings (ctrl-k) to see them.

Aha, good catch!

Cheers.
