GURPS Basic Updates

Dalzig · 01-02-2018, 12:44 AM

I was poking around the errata page and noticed that Characters was up to at least a fifth printing. The PDF for it on Warehouse 23 appears to be the third printing (using the previews and what I've downloaded), which has some decent errata in place.

Would it be possible to get that updated?

I kind of figured the PDFs would generally be kept up to date with the hard copies. I guess I'll have to work my way through the errata list and mark up my PDFs.

Edit: In general, the PDFs available on DriveThruRPG are more up-to-date. Characters and Campaigns are both 5th printing there while they're 3rd/4th printing on W23. That seems odd.

That's peculiar. My Campaigns PDF is 5th printing, and that's what I get when I download from my W23 library. The preview is 4th printing, but I expect that's a separate file on W23, which would be far simpler to implement.

I have the bundle (SG31-3999) instead of the separate books (SG01-0001 and SG01-0002). Maybe that's the only one that needs updating?

My Characters PDF is third printing, and that's what I get from a new download. I did not buy the bundle, so the separate Characters seems to need updating on W23 as well as the bundle.

The PDF of Characters available in all locations is the Third Printing, while the Campaigns PDF is the Fifth Printing.

The combined version on Warehouse 23 needed to be updated for Campaigns (which I've just done and sent out an update), and the preview on Campaigns needed to be updated (although the file itself was the most-recent).

I'm in the process of updating a bunch of files everywhere, but I went ahead and pushed these because I had the files handy.

I guess I shouldn't try to stir up trouble at 1AM if I'm going to get the details wrong.

Thanks Steven!
