Player's Guide
Player's Guide 2nd printing has gone from 53.1mb in size to 108mb in size. It's literally more than doubled in size.
It's very sluggish on my I7, 16GB RAM laptop :/

I'll look into that. It was probably some option that should have been checked that wasn't.
(I'm still kind of new to that end of things, so forgive me.)

Re: Player's Guide
Yeah, it was. I was exporting the PDF for (basically) "high quality" rather than "small file size". (It's a physical-print versus screen-image thing.)
The good news is, I'll be able to fix that fairly easily, but it will be a couple of days. I'm going back in and putting the background images in the book for the deluxe hardcovers, and I'll export a proper PDF when I'm done.

Re: Player's Guide
hmmm... either that hasn't gone through properly or something is wonky on my end.
Re: Player's Guide
Same here. PDFs weight on average 5mb less than before only.
Re: Player's Guide
That's weird.
I just checked the files on my hard drive, and they have the values I listed above. The values listed in FASA's cloud storage space (where I put them to be uploaded to the store and DriveThru) shows those same values.
I know they were bigger before (because I did a size comparison of old-versus-new when I was playing with settings).
But then I went into my store account to download the file and it gave me the previous update -- the one without the updated background. And it has the larger file size.
I'll look into it, but a question for those following: Does the new update have the darker, textured background to the pages or is it still the plain white?

Re: Player's Guide
They are fine with me. The player's guide is even smaller than the original
