2nd Printing PDF download problem
I received an email tonight stating that the DCCRPG PDF has been updated on RPGNow.com. I just finished downloading it only to find out that it is 100 pages long. Something tells me that it wasn't actually supposed to be a truncated version of the rulebook. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks.

Same here, including the two emails.
Thought something was weird when the download page said 120 mb and the file ended up 34 mb, especially since the first printing PDF was something like 50 mb.

Looks like it is better now. Just downloaded and it appears to be the full book with index

Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
It's some sort of glitch in the RPG Now upload process, as far as I can tell. After a third time uploading the same file, it appears to have finally worked.

Thanks Joseph! The download worked for me this time.

It worked for me this time.

Each of these modules is self-contained. No other books are required other than the three AD&D rulebooks (or a similar set of rules if you prefer).

Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
Will it get updated at Paizo's site too for those of us that purchased it there?

Yes, although their system for publisher updates is not automated like RPGnow so I am not sure of the timeline.IronWolf wrote:Will it get updated at Paizo's site too for those of us that purchased it there?

Is the 2nd printing hardcover out yet? I still have to get my hands on a real book.

And we’re glad to report that the second printing of DCC RPG is now available! If you missed your copy the first time around, DCC RPG is now in stores again.
Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
As of 11:20 tonight, it is still not updated on Paizo. I sent them an email yesterday asking when they thought they'd update it, but did not get a response yet.goodmangames wrote:Yes, although their system for publisher updates is not automated like RPGnow so I am not sure of the timeline.IronWolf wrote:Will it get updated at Paizo's site too for those of us that purchased it there?

Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
Yeah - Paizo is a bit slow with approvals. I know when Purple Duck Games released Bone Hoard I was waiting and waiting to grab it from Paizo and eventually just bought it off RPG Now's site. Their approval process seems quite slow, likely even slower if it involved humans being right after Gen Con.Pesky wrote: As of 11:20 tonight, it is still not updated on Paizo.

Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
The pdf from DTRPG is downloading garbled and with a bunch of blank pages at the start for me. Anyone else having the same problem?

Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
At least you guys are getting e-mails saying that you can upload the new version. I haven't even gotten one of those.
I'm surprised by the issues I'm reading about on this thread. All of the PDF sources listed so far (Paizo, DTRPG, RPGNow) are usually extremely reliable.

Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
I'm in the same boat as Fin, I have not received any emails notifying me of an update to the PDF.

Re: 2nd Printing PDF download problem
For the folks that got it at Paizo, you should be able to check your My Downloads and see if the 'Date Download Last Updated' column shows something recent (mine says Thursday). Even if you didn't get the email, I think your download will still have been updated.
