3PP and other products are highlighted on the Paizo Blog including HL and RW. HL is used internally by Paizo developers to create statblocks for books. Its talked about everywhere as the go to Pathfinder character creation software and has an official Pathfinder license hence the reason it has an official Pathfinder image. Guess I don't see "its advertised in the back of a book" as any type of game changer in the year 2018.... Or I am totally confused on what your saying...

I would NOT want Paizo to 'officialize' any given 3rd party product, for fear it would discourage development of other alternatives. Leaving the landscape open makes for better products for all.
As an example, I fully expect a large number of pf2e character generators to come about in the next year or two - and based on the number of people who dislike HLO's model, I can see a number of them doing just fine. |

Just wanted to jump on this thread and cast the votes of the 10+ people I play with who use Herolab classic for pf1e. Specifically we ask that you please bring pf2e to herolab classic. Please charge us more per data package as a subscription based model is dead on arrival for us. So is an online only solution like HLO as we frequently have internet issues. If Pf2e/starfinder were both in herolab classic you'd have all of our money for many more years to come.

This also allows them to not have to worry further MacOS and IOS support since they'll just be supporting one platform... the web. |

On top of this the CORE engine of HLO is exactly the same as HLC. This means as was recently done with Unique ID’s, HLC gets the same Improvment as HLO does. So again what LW is actually doing contradicts what you are saying.

I do hope that HL will continue investing in HLC. I must say that since HLO I sense that there wont be any further development in new materials to the HLC, and thus, I am looking for another software. thanks for 15 years of fun playing, but it seems our paths must separate. |

Have any members had trouble logging into the store recently. I sent herolab a email about my problem. Just wanted to know if anyone else had any issues. I am planning on buying HLO as soon as the store will let me. I wish PF2 was avaible on HLC.
