I don't frequent the forums very often so I'm having a tough time finding if this exists. Does anyone know if the Dragon Compendium has been created for the Pathfinder module? If so where would I look for it?

I know that the d20 community files had some content from the Dragon Compendium (I remember the Force Missile Mage was there at least, because one of my players needed it). I don't know if anything from that book has been entered for Pathfinder though.

I found the d20 version and downloaded it. I wonder if I could look at the source in the editor and make it for pathfinder. I'm not sure how much the d20 and pathfinder scripts differ from each other, and I'm not a guru at making things in Hero Lab.

I am sad to say they are very different. The "Things" themselves may come over but the scripts that run the "Things" won't work without changing the logic and fields and tags.

I program for a living so I shouldn't have a problem managing that. I just have problems finding good documentation for the scripting language. If I had a list of all the fields and tags then I could probably convert some of the stuff, and maybe even post it back to the forums.

Honestly instead of "converting" you would be much better of rebuilding as many new features exist in Pathfinder that do not exist yet in d20. So if willing to learn you would better to learn Pathfinder scripts and just write it fresh. It will end up working better in the long run.

Thanks a bunch. I'll have to give these a look this weekend. This should be fun.
