#THE TROVE BOOKZ HOW TO#

At that point I will post suggestions on how to proceed. The point is we need to get organized in this, we won’t be able to play it by ear any more once the world is in full swing.įor now, I’ll keep refreshing the Trove 20 times a day until it’s back. And then a couple times a year we update our backlog backups for good measure. Thankfully, since I plan to track all this stuff from now on as Insomnia starts reporting on TTRPGs, I can save the new stuff manually every month, once we have secured the backlog. Paizo publishes new stuff every month, maybe half a dozen products including Starfinder, and Wizards publishes one or two new things every few months. But the world would be much poorer and less interactive without the extra choices. Every month new material is released that we will need down the road, even if we don’t use all of it it’s still needed to populate the overworld and give the players choices, even though they will only end up picking some of them. It’s worth expanding on what shubn said, that making a backup once a year is not good enough for us.

The Trove has more data in terms of GB, but I found some stuff in that backup not present in The Trove (e.g. I haven't done a thorough file comparison check between that repository and The Trove, but it bears to say that a lot of their files can be found in both repositories. This is complementary to a torrent I posted some months ago on Discord about a full backup of a defunct website that, as far as I understand, was the predecessor to The Trove. The downloads got stuck a couple of times, but I simply closed the app via task manager, deleted the last half-downloaded file, and ran the downloader again, which checks for already downloaded items. I tested it and downloaded everything from the Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder, and Cyberpunk folders. Found a useful utility to download contents from The Trove in bulk:
