Integration with DriveThruRPG Unlike previous projects we are not sending out coupon codes for DriveThruRPG. We're using a new integration between DTRPG and BackerKit.
Basically, here's how it works:
On your Digital Rewards page you will see a section that looks like this:
When you click ANY ONE of the "Go to my DriveThruRPG library" links, the system will automatically add all the rewards you have available into your DTRPG library.
You do not have to click through each individual link, any one of them triggers the process to load up your library. You may have to let the page run for a minute, the process is not instantaneous.
A few backers use a different email address for DTRPG than they do for BackerKit. We're working with both companies to address this gap going forward but in the meantime if you are one of them, email [email protected]and we will work with you to get the titles into your DTRPG account. (You can also just download the PDFs directly from your BackerKit rewards page, there is no need to use DTRPG at all if you don't want to.)
Shipping Underway! Yesterday we sent over the backer shipping file and our warehouse has begun packaging and shipping out rewards. A few notes about this process:
Addresses are now locked, so if you need to update yours please email [email protected] ASAP.
You should get an email notification when your package is scanned by the carrier. Note that this event doesn't provide enough information to predict when your package going to arrive, and that's not in our hands, so the email notification generated by our ShipStation software does not give an arrival timeline. Consider it more of a "heads-up."
If your rewards are damaged or defective, we will replace them at no cost to you. In any fulfillment operation like this, there are always a few difficult-to-spot defective copies or shipping mishaps. We're doing our best to make sure you get a pristine set of books but if you end up with a damaged or defective copy, just contact customer service at [email protected] with your shipping address information and one or two photos of the defects you’ve spotted in your copy, and we’ll figure out how to fix it. That’s on us, not you.
POD & Audiobook Status We've received an initial set of hardcopies produced by DTRPG for the POD offerings. We're waiting for everyone on the team to review and sign off of them. Once that happens we will distribute those codes as well. We'll post another update when that happens.
The audiobook versions are also still in production, we'll let you know when we hit a milestone there.
Thank you! We're excited to begin delivering this magnus opus of TSR history. We hope you enjoy the expansive work author Shannon Appelcline has put in. There are over 1500 pages of research and commentary across the four volumes of Designers & Dragons Origins!
Thank you for your support and patience as we approach the last few turns in the minotaur's maze of production.
