Advanced Export Import Question

[kbs666]

Oh, sure, post while I'm working on my mighty wall of text.

The thing is, unlike rules content (and stat-blocks) (Mechanics content), material from the APs, Player Companions, and Campaign Setting books (Story content) is not open content. Meaning, the Community CANNOT make its own version. All of that content is Paizo's alone to publish as they see fit.. and the version released by LWD under license from them would be the only legal version. Anything else would be a violation of Paizo's rights as owners of the content, subject to legal action, etc.

I was unclear. I meant refactor the content and then give it back to Paizo as a new and improved version. The CM is designed to allow for really simple versioning so if we, as a community substantially improved their product and said "here, sell this, its better." I doubt they'd sue us.

Maybe so, but I also doubt they'd be all that eager to accept second-guessing from the Community.

And you're assuming Paizo is preparing the content. That may not be the case, just as it is not Paizo staff who does the preparation of content for HeroLab.

Paizo aren't preparing the content. LWD are.
