My GM and I like the Dream Scarred Press psionics system better than vancian spell casting. However, the effort to rewrite an AP to use psionics instead of or in addition to spells is daunting.
I was looking for an AP or at least a series of modules using the psionics system. Our local shop doesn't carry anything like that.
Are there some out there?
Dotting for interest
This is in the area called "Compatible Products from Other Publishers" because I was wondering if anyone knows if there already is something from some other publisher.

Ähem, yes, there actually is one - at least the first two installments. Ultimate Psionics put it on the hold, but it may resume soon.
I think they look great! Thanks muchly!
From your reviews it looks like it is intended only for psionics. Meaning no standard PF magic allowed. Is that correct?
Your review looks like your have read through it in detail. Have you played through or GM'd it?
Sweet! That is exactly what I am looking for. I will have to get those in the very near future.

Third one should be done end of this month and released in April. :)

Oh good, someone linked in the Third Dawn stuff. I can't swear to this, but I was chatting with Andreas a little bit ago about the Magic of Incarna project and Third Dawn came up as kind of an ancillary discussion because of the original Incarnum conversion class, the Flowshaper, who was specifically designed for that setting. I believe there are some additional materials coming out for Third Dawn in the very near future, though I'd need to touch bases with one of the boss-dudes to verify that.

Popping my head in here:
AdventureAWeek.com is releasing a series of psionic adventures soon. All the maps are in and we're waiting on a little bit of art before the first gets released. :)
Keep an eye out for Varakt's Halo: The Great Pubo Hunt sometime soon (especially if you enjoy a bit of humor).
Thanks!
Excellent! More psionic joy.
The setting of that AP is a world without traditional magic, just psionics.I think they look great! Thanks muchly!

So does that mean the players can't play many of the traditional classes like ranger or paladin that get spells? Would it work out ok if they picked one of the archtypes that gives up spellcasting?

That would work. And though out of date/previous edition intended, there were a couple of variants, like the ranger and the thoughtsinger/bard that used psionics in place of magic for some classes.

As mentioned, we actually had variants of the bard and ranger in our 3.5 release for use in the campaign. The paladin is a trickier subject, because Third Dawn also doesn't have traditional "get all up in mortals' business" deities... but a non-casting variant might be able to work in the setting.
And as for Adventure-A-Week's stuff - I had the pleasure of reading the Great Pubo Hunt - I definitely recommend it. :)

We'll also be doing a Third Dawn Kickstarter later this year, which will update the campaign setting to Pathfinder and add lots of player options, once we get stuff sorted with Ultimate Psionics and the Miniatures. :)
