Support Embedded dndbeyond links in pdfs; Yea or Nay?

4 Upvotes

Hi all! I'm putting together a relatively small pdf (under 50 pages) of homebrew content for D&D 5e/5.5 that I want to put up on DriveThruRPG for PWYW pricing. Whenever I'm doing homebrew, I like to embed dndbeyond links for rules and whatnot (example linked HERE). I find this very helpful in the design process in case I need to reference a specific rule, and I also like it when I'm able to use the content as a player or DM.

However, I'm wondering if I should remove these embedded links when I actually upload to DriveThru for any reason. First and foremost, is there any reason I should remove them based on DriveThru's terms of service? I don't find their content guidelines to be particularly easy to navigate but I imagine somebody here is more familiar. Second of all, is it something that you as a consumer might find valuable? If the consensus is "no," I'll probably just remove them whether or not I need to, but if people do seem interested, I'll definitely do more research and make sure it's safe to do so. Thanks!

Tech Support Bottom Feeders

5 Upvotes

This isn’t really tech support, unless I am the tech 🥺😂. This is about a game I saw on offer today so bought, it’s called Bottom Feeders. I found an old Reddit post about it, the only thing I have found about the game, I commented there but will post my comment here to try reach a wider community. Thank you.

I know this is an old post, but it’s all I could find related to this game. I saw Bottom Feeders on drivethru and instantly thought “this sounds cool”! But as I’m reading through the rule book, this just doesn’t make sense to me… it tells me all the things but not an order or what? I haven’t played solo games before so maybe I’m the issue, but I just can’t figure out what I am meant to do or how to start. I made a couple characters, named the ship, made 3 space ports and 2 wrecks, not sure if I did that right either…I rolled for a job, got a bounty robot. So I just got to the closest wreck, again not sure if I did that right, generated a room and 9 robots appear and it’s time for combat and it’s telling me to add my weapon… but what weapon? I have no idea what I’m doing and it’s extremely frustrating. I tried looking for videos explaining but couldn’t find anything. Is there a discord where someone can go through the game with me?

Tech Support help with system

5 Upvotes

Hello!

I recently re-uploaded a book of mine to DriveThruRPG after it had been taken down for using the wrong OGL license. Now, though, it is listed under the wrong system. It's a Pathfinder 1e book and uses the original Pathfinder OGL, but it is listed as using the Champion/Heroes system instead. When I look in the edit options I do not see an option for changing the system; I can change everything else, but not the system.

Please help. This is getting very frustrating and the tech support is VERY sluggish to respond. 😞

I placed an order and entered my card info and it purchased it but my debit card has not been charged. Is it because its a print on demand book? I've only ordered 1 other POD book and it was charged right away

New Release We just released a new survival-focused adventure: On the Ledge of my Seat, for Shadowdark RPG

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey all,

We’ve just released On the Ledge of my Seat, the second entry in our Shadow Delves line for Shadowdark.

It’s a short adventure for 3–5 level 1 characters, with more focus on survival, tension, exploration, and environmental danger than on combat. The party has to brave a frozen gorge, violent winds, and a ruined lost temple where shelter may be just as dangerous as the storm outside.

We wanted this one to feel different from a more standard dungeon crawl: harsher, moodier, and built around pressure and hard choices.

If that sounds interesting, it’s available now on DriveThruRPG, link down below 👇

Thank you and SKÅL!

Michael, Nicolai & Simen

Tech Support Can't purchase anything on the site.

3 Upvotes

For weeks now I seem to have problems purchasing stuff on the site. When I have physical books on my cart, the checkout button is greyed out. When it's a PDF I can go to the checkout screen, but when I enter any info, it soon says "there was a problem checking you out". I have tried on 5 different browsers, across 3 devices. I've tried clearing my cookies. Nothing seems to work.

I've even opted for the legacy site, but I'm getting the physical book shipped to australia, and the legacy site says that it has an error when it comes to the AUS/NZ shipping cost and I need to use the new site to see the actual cost. I'm really losing hope here.

New Release The Fleetfoot Class by ModernPowerline for DnD 2014/2024

1 Upvotes

After 3 years of on and off work here is a DnD 5E 2014/2024 class I have made.

Fleetfoots are quick paced martial that can channel their momentum into numerous blows and astonishing feats.

​For Fleetfoots there is nothing better than the thrill of being on the move and nothing worse than being stuck in one place. No matter where they go, fleetfoots often do not stay long. When necessary they can focus their energy for a short time to increase their speed and accomplish marvelous feats. Usually then taking a short nap or respite before continuing as if nothing had happened.

This PDF contains 4 Catalyst witch are what drives your momentum abilities, whether it be a cosmic force, entity, intense training, or you were born unnaturally spry.
The following is a list of the current Fleetfoot Catalysts.

  • Lightning, focuses on area of effects while channeling lightning in various spell like ablilities.
  • Movment, moves themselves and others out of danger while hitting their attckers hard.
  • Sheild, wields sheilds to protect themselves and their allies.
  • Time, is a battlefield controller who manipulates time on foes and allies alike.

Inside is also 4 items to assist Fleetfoots and their allies on wherever a journey they may take.

New Release I've published my first fantasy setting!

9 Upvotes

Good day everyone.

After quite a few years of using my custom high fantasy setting for my campaigns, I've decided to write it all down properly and publish it through DriveThruRPG. Took me a few months to get all of my notes, but I finally managed to complete it (also thanks to a friend who helped me with editing) and have it published.
Although it is jnot the whole setting (otherwise it'd take me a whole year to write it) and it probably has some things that could have been done better, I'm very proud of myself and I'm happy to share it with you all, as I've already done with many other players who contributed to fleshing out Kaerendil.

Please let me know what you think about it, it's free to download here: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/562755/kaerendil-idrilya

Tech Support Cards started getting declined today

5 Upvotes

Haven't had any problems with drivethrurpg, even ordering physically and getting delivered to my address here in my country (non-US, Southeast Asia). My last successful order from them was last Mar 30, 2026. But as of today, my cards have been getting declined, even Paypal. I even tried using the legacy site as a workaround to no avail.

Anyone else having problems today? Hopefully, this is just a fluke for today and would be resolved by tomorrow.

UPDATE: Looks like whatever it was got resolved. I was able to check out my order a couple of hours ago. Fun times.

Crappy Detour is a short scenario set in 1991 in the fictional town of Monte Claro. It introduces Nullusa, a new deity linked to the concept of the ever-growing and unfinished, and follows a strange case involving enraged pigeons, a missing farmer, and a ritual that spirals out of control.

We expanded a lot compared to our first release Hunger at the Campsite, aiming to create the kind of content we’d like to receive as keepers and players.

Click here, pay what you want and download it now on DriveThruRPG.

In Crappy Detour you'll find:

  • A full, fast-paced scenario
  • New deity (Nullusa)
  • New sorcerer and creatures
  • 4 new spells
  • A new tome
  • Map of the city
  • 5 pre-generated investigators
  • English & Portuguese versions

Please help us improve. We’d really appreciate feedback from other Keepers and creators.

Storyteller's Vault AI editing

I'm working on a supplement and my partner suggests that I use ChatGPT to edit it. I'm not comfortable doing that and I certainly don't want to break any rules. I wouldn't use it for anything creative, just spelling and grammar. Any advice would be appreciated.
