Official Hero Lab Online FAQ

Q1: When buying Starfinder/HLO what does the $35 bucks include?
A: (BJ) When you purchase the core rules, you get free service time (180 days) along with it. After that expires you can choose to pay for 180 days of service at $14.99 or 365 days of service for $24.99.

Q2: HLO is now available for purchase. Does that mean it already supports all the game systems herolab does (such as shadowrun)?
A: (Aaron) HLO currently supports starfinder, we plan to expand it to other systems in the future, but don't have a precise timeline for what systems will happen and when.

Q3: Once Pathfinder has been added to HLO and I transfer my Data sets to HLO when I buy new Data sets is it one purchase for both HLO and classic or do I have to by the data set twice to use on both programs?
A: (Mathias) So long as your purchase is available in both versions of the program its a one time purchase.

Q4: HLO lists that it supports 1 Concurrent Device. How do I get more? How do I use my Hero Lab Classic secondary licenses like it lists in the official FAQ?
A: We do not have an 100% official answer and most likely won't have one until Pathfinder gets moved to HLO. Currently Starfinder HLO supports only a single device.

Q5: So how do things work for those of us who own Herolab Classic? Especially when Pathfinder/Shadowrun support is added?
A: (Ian) For people who already have content purchased for existing game systems in HL Classic, we’ll have a minimal transfer fee (still to be determined) that will cover everything you already have for a game system. You won’t need to repurchase all your content. After that the ongoing pricing will be the same as a normal HLO purchase.
A: (BJ) The cost to transfer will be less than 20 dollars and include 180 days of service access.

Q6: Currently you have to buy service time in either 6 month or 1 year amounts. What about those of us that want month by month payments?
A: (BJ) We've been discussing the possibility of a month to month purchase. I can't promise anything, but it may be something we provide in the future.

Q7: If I stop paying for service time do I lose all access to my characters in HLO?
A: (Ian) If your subscription ends, you won't be able to change your characters, but you'll still be able to access them for viewing, printing, etc (as well as any export functionality once we get to adding that).

Q8: I would really like to save my characters from HLO locally on my own computer. Is this currently possible or coming soon?
A: (Ian) We’re planning to have statblock export, a data blob export that can be imported using a different HLO account (we have a user-unfriendly version of this already for admin purposes), and eventually a formatted JSON export suitable for use by third-party tools.
