Well hopefully that got everyone's attention! 
A new feature has been added to the HL binary program that I will be making use of in the next release. The good news is that the requirement to have all these different "Packs" because of official license issues is no more! This means moving forward all the packs will simply become a single download called the "Pathfinder Pack". This is same as what the d20 and 5E communities have already.
So what happens if you don't have a specific license? HL will give you a nice warning message about the missing Thing (ie a feat or spell or class ability) but the rest of the class or race will function normally. This means I don't need different Packs anymore and everything can become ONE SINGLE Pack!
This will make install issues a thing of the past. Saving me time in getting a release out the door and support hours spent helping those with license and Pack install issues. Saving time is a wonderful thing!
Now the bad news. Yes always a bad news. No automatic method exists in HL that will allow me to automatically take all the different Packs on your computer/iPad and merge them into one.
Meaning it will be left as a manual step but not one that is very difficult to do but still a manual step. Once I am ready to move things over I will cover the couple required steps but basically you delete all the existing Packs and then download the new "Pathfinder Pack".
This is just a "pre-announcement" to get people ready and start spreading the word. Hopefully LW will let me do another announcement in the official news letter to make sure those that don't visit the boards are informed. I will also do a post to the Paizo forums and hopefully those here will spread word to your local gamers.
Thanks!
