Paradox Interactive, a new hope?
- Thread starter RavenX
- Start date
It would be great to see a mage, geist or demon template! I really hope that Lone Wolf does this soon. From what I could tell on the forums, it was CCP not LW that was the issue.
Onyx Path had said to me they wanted to do more with the licensing, but since CCCP held the IPs they couldn't really do anything with approval from them. Now CCCP is completely out of the picture since Paradox outright purchased the IPs. Onyx Path is still writing new content too. I'm happy to see that we finally have a shot at getting new licenses hammered out. CCCP bought out WW for nothing. They canned the WW MMORPG in favor of working on Eve Online's MMO after it was nearly finished. CCCP's only role in published content was pretty much approving the proof copies before final publication.
I'd like to see a bit more added here, then I won't feel like I wasted the money I've spent on nWoD
I don't feel like I wasted money on the software, as it helped me to maintain all my npcs and storytelling data in one convenient place, but at the same time the limited scope always bothered me. I want to add on to it but that's hard to do without under the hood access. Though I am getting somewhat proficient with adding tabs and a lot more comfortable working with the xml now.

Communication from Paradox Interactive
Hi. After reading this thread I wrote an email to Paradox Interactive.
I informed them that I was an avid player of World of Darkenss over the years and I also told them about Hero Lab.
I asked them if, as new owners they knew of the relationship between the previous owners and if there were any plans to update the licencing agreement so I as a GM/storyteller could use Hero Lab with the latest editions of the various rule sets.
A week later the CEO of Paradox Interactive emailed me. He told me that they did not know of the licensing agreement. He also asked me to put him in contact with the relevant people at Lone Wolf Development because they would like to reach a licencing agreement with Lone Wolf Development and make the latest editions available for Hero Lab.
So, how do I pass on the contents of that email to the relevant people at Lone Wolf Development? How do I pass on the contact details of the CEO so that you guys can get a talking and I can get a playing?
I will also send this message via the support mechanism as I am not sure how often this particular thread is checked.
Thanks in advance.
PS - If you are an official Lone Wolf Development employee, you might want email me at the address associated with this forum account as I do not check this forum as regularly as I do my email.

Please advise if there is anything we can do in order to progress this.

sedmeister, did you include the email you received from Paradox into the email you sent to support@wolflair.com? It may help if you do, since they'll know who to contact from it.
Additionally, I would try emailing Colen or sending a private message to Mathias since they're Lone Wolf staff. You may have better luck getting in contact with them.

Sedmeister;
Kudos to you for doing this, I've been in the same boat, except that I'd love to see a Exalted 3E and later on Trinity & Scion data packs. Any news on if anyone at LW got in touch with PI?

I've been fighting for Storypath on HL as well.

I've just started playing 2e, and I love it. The ability to use HL would be icing on the cake.

Perhaps someone should give the authoring kit a spin to make a 2e system?

2e of what? The "Chronicles" of darkness 2e or the 2e of old world of darkness?

Hell if I know, ask Mumblewump!

The reason I asked it that there are significant differences between Chronicles and old world of darkness. Old World of Darkness products were not compatible with each other. If you ran Werewolf you couldn't easily integrate Mage or Vampire products into your games. The Storyteller had to do a lot of work to make it fit, which is why mixed games were not a thing back then.
I don't have the new edition of Chronicles of Darkness, so my ability to code it is limited by the fact I don't own the book for it.

Hey all, at the risk of sounding like I am being negative, White Wolf (World/Chronicles of Darkness) were very fast in replying to me and very responsive.
However the Lone Wolf guys were not very responsive and failed to respond to my last two emails.
Therefore I would have to conclude that for whatever reason, it was not a priority for Lone Wolf Development.
I understand small companies need to prioritise and make decisions about what they can and will do, especially in terms of what will keep them afloat in terms of income. However, an honest communication along the lines of "this is just not a priority for us as a conmpany right now" would be really appreciated.
Even better would be if Lone Wolf could make it possible for the WoD community to have access to what we need to do the work for them for free.
If for whatever reason this has himply fallen through their cracks and they are keen, I apologise in advance for the critical response.

Very small company. Paizo releases get highest priority, then Shadowrun.
