So, is there any chance that WOTC and LWD will join forces like you did with Paizo and add 5th Edition / Next to Hero lab?

We do not have anything to announce right now with Wizards of the Coast. We would love to support D&D Next through Hero Lab and are currently in discussions about doing so. If that's something you would like to see, we definitely encourage you to share that with WOTC as well.

Adding dnd next support would be great but those of us left with stacks of Dnd3.5 books were left floundering somewhat, even with the Pathfinder support. Just my 2 pennies worth.

Maybe something like 65%-75% supported... not any more than that. the rest is being bug fixed by folks who upload data to my site below.

I never bothered with D&D4e. So I presumed the DDI downloader was fully supported. Thanks for the clarification.

As to the issue of D&D Next, I have in the meanwhile a version on my PC which partially implements the D&D Next rules (work of the past few evenings) from the playtest packages (not sure how far I will put this, but if I complete it, the people from Wolflair can have the code from me). It is still a LOT of stuff missing, though (basically it is a "far modified" 4e version). Licence issues are of course another thing there (I will still continue to work on the 4e Hero Lab bugfixes I am doing, my group is currently not planning to move to Next, we enjoy playing D&D 4e too much for that).

Our 3.5 support cannot extend beyond the SRD due to the need for a license from Wizards to do so. We have approached Wizards in the past about this, but they ultimately were not interested in doing so. If we secure a license for Next, we may perhaps be able to also secure a license for 3.5, which could make this possible. However, we're only in discussions at this point, so there's nothing concrete to share at this time.
