Magic Items from Chronicles Books

I am about to delve into the Authoring Kit but wanted to check quickly to avoid a duplication of effort. Are there plans to incorporate the information from the Pathfinder Chronicles books such as the Ioun Stones found in the Pathfinder Society book or the extra devils in the Princes of Darkness book?

Thanks!
 
I have been working on Seeker of Secrets. I have added the spells and items from it. I have added the feats - but only Boon Companion is set up correctly as of right now. I have also added the magic items, but have noticed things might not be all that correct (like the Pathfinder Pouch, which can act like a bag of holding - which I don't think I did).
Because there are so many of the Ioun Stones in SoS, I figured I'd add those in later, after I'd figured out the rest of SoS and making sure it was correct.
However, I am more than willing to send you the .user file if you would like to use that as a base (or to help correct the items).
 
My current plan is to do the Adventure's Armory, but in small pieces. I am doing all the weapons currently and then armor. As I am short on time I will release smaller .user files instead of waiting until I have the whole book done like before.

I can already tell a few items are going to be really fun to script. :):eek:
 
Thanks for the replies! Just the quick glance I've taken at the scripting has me shivering in my boots but I'm more than willing to give it a shot. Once upon a time, I was a programmer so here's hoping it's like riding a bike -- a little wobbly at first but then it comes back to you. hehe

I'd love to see what you've done, if nothing else to use as a jump start for my own endeavors. I, too, am more than willing to share once I get rolling.
 
One other question... do I need to purchase the Savage Worlds in order to get to the Authoring Kit? Sorry for the newbie question.
 
I've done a couple of things with the Adventurer's Armory. I've been working on the Scizore - but don't have it complete (I copied the Thing Armor Klar for the armor aspect). I can give you what I've done so that you can either fix it or use it as a base.

Thanks Theocrat, but I guess I missed when you said this. :p

I finished inputting and scripting all the weapons from the Adventurer's Armory and uploaded the .user file up to d20pfsrd.

Its funny how one line of an ability is so easy to write, but so much harder to script. :) In a few places I had to make my best guess for how a rule was to work as I couldn't find anything official. Turns out the errata for this book won't be released until they print the 2nd run of it.:confused:

If anyone finds something I am off on compared to an official ruling I am happy to try and fix. Just point me in the right direction with preferably a link to the paizo forums.

Figure I will do the armors next, then feats and traits, and finally the adventuring gear......

If anyone wanted to help out by just inputting all the Text for the Adventuring Gear it would be most appreciated. Then I can then just focus on the scripts. If anyone does this just add Pc as part of the Unique ID to help keep things unique. For example the Area Map would be gPcAreaMap.

The text I have been doing for my monsters works well when you cut and paste off the PDFs

Very true. As I purchased the actual book I have been using the text from d20pfsrd, but still takes time that I am short on is all. So figured it certainly can't hurt to ask. :)

So how can i do the text for you and send it to you

I want to get all the ion stones from the seekers of secrets book
 
Someone could for example create a new Data File(ie .user file) and just start creating new Gear items in the editor from Adventurer's Armory. Do all the easy data entry of the items, but no special scripting. Then they could just send me that .user file which is my user id at yahoo.com and I could then just do the scripting.

Sort of like team work. ;)

If say someone already has a bunch of stuff entered, but in a .user file with lots of other stuff I can always just copy it out. The .user files are just XML so I can just copy and paste using TextPad.

Not familiar with those Ion stones as I purchase few 3PP books. Do they do really strange things or pretty common adjustments to things?
