Unless Lone Wolf gets a license from WotC, they can't make anything for D&D except the SRD. I don't know if such a license is pending, but I would guess not based on what I'm reading on Wizard's message boards.
Some (most?) of us are working through parts of source books that are interesting to us or that are of use in current games, since it is a huge effort to get everything in. The possibility of trading files has also been asked by some who are working on extending Hero Lab. As for me, I have worked through parts of Races of the Wild, and gotten somewhere between 1/4 and 1/3 of the cleric domains from the Spell Comendium entered. And I'm kiind of skipping around....when I get tired of entering domains, I do something else (the main reason I started entering Races of the Wild stuff). Of what's on your list, wizard (or any class) substitution levels cannot currently be done, although I think it's on Lone Wolf's to do list. I haven't looked closely at the other stuff your list (I already have too many source books sitting around my computer), so I don't know how easy they would be to implement. But I find it mostly easy to get stuff in with the editor. |

I would also like to put in my vote for at least the additions of the Complete Mage, Warrior, etc... VERY helpful on those books. I'm new to this so I'm not sure I would make the best mods...

As has already been pointed out, it is illegal for any company to include the material from the above books with their software, unless they obtain a license to do so from Wizards. Unfortunately, Wizards has opted to withdraw all licenses associated with D&D, so no one can do so. That means that users will need to add the material they wish to use. We've been steadily refining the editor to make that process as easy as possible. There are detailed tutorials included regarding the editor and how to add your own custom material. I recommend you take a look at them and you ought to be able to add you own stuff pretty easily. |

I don't see why not. As long as we're not businesses, and we're not making profit from it. It's a mod.

I had briefly considered putting stuff I completed up on my personal website for download, but comments from Rob in another thread got me thinking that it was probably not a good idea to do that. While I don't really care one way or another if someone is using data files I created, I don't really want to get in trouble with Wizards (not even a "take this website down or else" e-mail). I won't repeat the other thread, but Rob did have some interesting thoughts on file sharing between users. |
