    Proof reading Modules Before sale!

    First things first you all do a great job putting together the Modules that you offer. I am a big fan of the D&D 2ed. products. That being said it, is nobody reviewing or proofs the products? It all there but when add the text you change the format and should review it so that it looks and feels correct. I can't tell you how many of the 20+ books that have massive editorials errors and if I go through and correct them, then I have to do it again for each campaign. You guys could fix this by review and updating the products correctly. I know maybe it sounds petty, but I spend quite a bit here and would like to get a finished product. Example: The Wilderness Survival and Dungeons Survival guides. Just start reading one of them.

    If you report the errors, they will be fixed. Then you won't have to fix it in your next campaign.

    Usually DLC issues are reported in the sub-forum for the ruleset. I don't see a DLC thread in the D&D Classics sub or I would point you to that. I'll move this thread there so the right people have a better chance of seeing it.

    What they will probably want is something like:
    Wilderness Survival Guide
    - Story "Introduction" paragraph 4 "blah blah blah"
    - Story "The Valley" paragraph 1 "blah" paragraph 3 "blah blah"

    The more specific you are, the more likely your fix will be adopted because they will know where it is. Saying, "just start reading" is going to mean they will do that, and they will probably miss a large portion of the errors (edit: but other than WSG, they won't know which books to re-read), like they did they first time. But, if that's all you want to do, that's good too and I'm sure the developer(s) will do what they can.

    I see there is no response regarding the above issues. I could list the issues, but I don't think I could fit them on the forums page. I am pretty sure that is only for the Wilderness Survival Guide. But hey I will ask the Founder about the issue the next time I see him online.

    I notified James about your initial post and he will have notified the developer. I don't know the developer or their status but I can only assume things are being looked into. However as LE says in his post above more details would be helpful and those can be passed on as necessary.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    I will sit down with one of the books and put together list of places, but honestly it might be only a list of pages. As it effect the whole books which why I encourage people to just start reading one of them.

    Maybe just a couple of specific examples then? Screenshots help too.

    Here are the first two pages of The Wilderness Survival Guide

    WSG page 1 editorial issue.PNG.PNG
    WSG page 2 editorial issue .PNG

    It is this way thought out the book.

    I am also reviewing some of the other books, I am not finding the errors that I have remember (perhaps updated already?). I will continue to post what I find.
