That's huge, great !
Huge !! Indeed… Thank you for this work.![]()
I decided to make Definitive Edition navigable with links to make it useful at the table.
I've added a markdown specific Quick Convenience Links at the top (for SG/players most pressing needs).
The TOC is now a linklist. So are Virtues, Flaws, Spells Index, Spell Guidelines Index and Bestiary Index. Note that the Abilities are not headings at this time so can't be linked. I'm considering to reformat it (but it's not in that shape in DE pdf).
That's amazing, thanks.
I uploaded a few minor spelling corrections.
Lords of Men: done. ![]()
It was a real nightmare, but I think I pulled it off.
Started working on City & Guild
And me on Hoh - Mystery Cults.
Sounds great, thanks for the help guys. I'm aaaaalmost finished with the enhancements I wanted to make for DE so linking, index etc is complete and it'll be faster and better to use at table than the original pdf - but not as beautiful :).
A few people asked me to, so I've added a 3rd-party folder where any other open license 3rd party content can be put - voluntarily. I'm not about to scrounge around for it or convert en masse, but it might be nice to have a collection in the same project of some stuff that's already in markdown or people want to put. I've added two of my own to start.
For those using Linux to clean up the .md files, I’ve put together three tiny helper scripts that are already saving me a lot of time:
- one fixes OCR-mangled title capitalization
- one adds
>at the start of every line - one joins copy-pasted PDF lines back into paragraphs without destroying blank lines
Nothing fancy, just small practical tools — but they make repetitive cleanup much easier.
Happy to share them if useful.
Update 2026-04-15: I'm now "done" with Definitive Edition to make it a fast and convenient reference document. Completed links for "convenience" at beginning, TOC, Virtues, Flaws, Abilities, Spells Index, Spell Guideliens Index, Bestiary Index and complete (and tested) Traditional Index.
@frederic sounds nice, feel free to share though I have some similar things in python and keybinds in Visual Code. However, something that can be used in windows subystem for linux could be useful.
@OriginalMadman Congratulations on your work on the Definitive Edition. I find it both very useful and very impressive.
Quick question about page 22 of HoH: True Lineages:
the last paragraph seems incomplete, as the final sentence ends with “Naturally, the Redcaps charge for this service...”
I could not find any errata about it.
Does anyone know if this sentence is missing its end, or whether it continues somewhere else?
PS : The scripts : https://drive.google.com/file/d/18QT7wgAuzx0nGyzW81DnpM4D18U0UUvk/view?usp=sharing
The only thing the sentence seems to be obviously missing is a period. The Redcaps charge for the service of distributing the Folios.
Thanks for all the hard work, I’m quite enjoying the option to read AM5 books in obsidian! (And thanks to Atlas and the backers for making this possible!)
OK, thanks. I thought the sentence might have been something like: “Naturally, the Redcaps charge dearly for this service.” Or something like this.
But if it is just a period, that’s fine. No worries, I’ve already moved on.
I think this is just use of ellipsis - the three dots suggest the author addressing you and leaving the statement hanging there. It is a stylistic device rather than a typo.
I was initially going to say that, but I checked, and there's no ellipsis in either the PDF or in the Markdown file, just in Frédéric's post.
As published, the sentence simply doesn't have any ending punctuation. That makes it most likely an omitted period.
It’s OK, guys. I greatly appreciate your help. I added a period, and I’m now close to finishing the book. ![]()
