Eodin Posted September 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Forgive me; I'm sure this is out of place; I hope it's not in bad taste... I've been offline for a rather long time, but I was waiting for Traveller Hero... I checked the HERO store, but can't find it. Can anyone shoot me a PM or some-such thing on where I can purchase it? It's a licensed product, so it's not in the Hero store, it's over at ComStar games. Go to the link in my signature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jkeown Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Any thoughts on when or how the missing HDPs will be made available? We're starting up a game on Friday if all goes well. One of my players was visibly drooling at the prospect of Traveller HERO.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eodin Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? I'll send a message to Polaris on our development board, and see what the procedure is. I'm hoping that, from what I've seen, it will be an "update", so if you've checked the "notify me of updates" box when setting up your account, you'll get an update and can download the update. Hoping As far as timing, either Shadowcat, Tancred, or I will have to go into our development area and pull all the HD files together to make sure we haven't overlooked anything, so at least a few days.

Mastermind Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? any word on when the printed versions will arrive? I saw blurb that they were sent from the printer to ComStar. Are they en route to the buyers yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eodin Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Mastermind....For printed copies, I know as much as you do... as soon as they arrive at the ComStar warehouse, they'll immediately ship them out to those who've purchased the print books. Jkeown.... Polaris tells me that as soon as we get all the files together and rezipped, it will be posted to the site with a link available for those who purchased to get the updated zip. I'm hoping by the end of the week... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bygoneyrs Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? For the record I just got in the mail my two Traveller Hero books. I am so happy that they finally reached me, there is nothing like Hard Copy printed books. Also I think the books are nicely put together too.

Lord Mhoram Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? I just got my books in the mail, and am going to be reading them over the next few weeks.

Eodin Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Is the correction for the chart error in Traveller HERO bk 2 out yet in pdf for those of us who bought online? I left a message with Polaris, but we made the correction to both the print PDF and web PDF versions of Book 2. I'm just not sure how the notifications are sent out. I'll post when I hear back.

Bygoneyrs Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? You know the one drawback to ComStar Pub, the guys that brought us Traveller Hero/1248 Era, is that alot of their stuff is only out with .pdf's. I am one of those folks that do not care for PDF's but rather have Hard Copy printed versions of the books instead. I do not care that it costs more, I just want the product in a printed/professionly bound format only. I have spoken to or rather email a few of their people about my request and they have responded to me about it. They are not opossed to the idea, but I feel if we have more folks to say they would also like the resources in HC as well we might at least get a chance to get a limited HC printed copies of the PDFs.

Alathan Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? It might be worth it to see if ComStar can hook up with a POD (print-on-demand) service like LuLu (like what RPGNow uses) for their PDF-only products. It doesn't cost a lot more to use a POD service from what I understand, and the quality is on par with other professionally printed products. You might want to pursue this as an option with ComStar as well. I'll also bring it up with them as a suggestion (since I'm working with them on some ship deckplans).

SCUBA Hero Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Ordered the print versions of Books 1 & 2 earlier this week. Looking forward to crunchy Hero goodness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eodin Posted November 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Have the revised versions been posted? I've asked the question on our dev board, waiting for an answer. My understanding is that if you created an account when you downloaded the PDF, you should be able to re-download the PDF and it would be the new book 2.

Polaris Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Hi all, I am sorry it took me so long to get in here... but anyone that purchased the THero pdfs early enough to have not gotten the corrected one, you can download the updated version at the store (if you bought it at our website, then it is in your My Account area). If you have any problems with it, please just let us know at customer-service@comstar-media.com Thanks! William ComStar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently Released: Traveller HERO, books 1 and 2 GAS 1 and 2 1248, books 1 and 2 In Layout: GAS 3 GAS 4 GAS 5 GAS 6 GAS 7 GAS 8 In Design: Grand Fleet THero To be converted: Robots Patrons ...and others To be created new: we want to add your input to what we have in mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eodin Posted February 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next? Just a quick update: GAS 3-8 (THero PDF versions) should be available in the next week or two. Other supplements are in various stages, either waiting for approval or in layout, so watch for more books soon. And Polaris may have a related update, if ComStar can work out some details.
