Hi,

I recently bought the game Seven Leagues, through the "find more info" link on the Bookshelf, but when I bought it I was redirected to an RPGNow page to download the game.  The game is still not unlocked on the Bookshelf, which I find a bit disappointing because I like having the security of being able to re-download the game whenever needed.  Is it now policy to list games on the Bookshelf purely as advertisements which are not actually part of the Bookshelf download system?

Thanks!

This might be a side-effect of all the software changes over the last year or so. If so, then it's a Clinton question, big-time, as I have zero knowledge or ability to deal with it.

On the other hand, it might be a side-effect of the author first using the Bookshelf, then switching to RPGnow, which is not integrated with the Bookshelf in any way. I suggest contacting the author directly, because only they can authorize you for downloads.

I don't know which is the answer, but those are the options.

Best, Ron
