Q: Does Starfinder NEXUS work for both Starfinder 1e and Starfinder 2e?
A: At this time, Starfinder Nexus supports Starfinder Second Edition.
Q: Does Starfinder NEXUS work with Pathfinder NEXUS?
A: Yes! You can turn the content from the other game “on” by going to the “Preferences and Rules” section on the first page of the character builder. There, you can slide the other game’s content ‘on’.
Q: How do I sync my Paizo.com and Starfinder NEXUS accounts?
A: Visit the “Account Settings” option in the top-level Demiplane menu, then select “Sync Accounts” followed by “Paizo Connect.” Follow the instructions in the screen to generate your code and connect your account. If you’ve already done this for Pathfinder, you won’t need to repeat the process.
Q: I already own this book on Paizo.com, do I get a discount for Starfinder NEXUS?
A: Yes, if you own a copy of the PDF for that book. When you connect your Paizo account to Starfinder NEXUS, you can get a deep discount for any PDFs you already purchased through Paizo.com. The “digital” access must be unlocked through owning the PDF - hardcover-only purchases do not qualify for the discount.
Q: Why doesn't my Paizo Connect discount appear with preordered content?
A: The way that Paizo Connect works, we can only connect to what Paizo has “available” in their store API. That being the case, we can’t credit what we can’t see. The Paizo Connect feature usually goes live within 24 hours of a book releasing. If you still don’t see your title within 24 hours of that time, Please reach out to our Support team and we will get that resolved for you as quickly as we can.
Q: If I buy the digital book through Starfinder NEXUS, do I have to buy it again on Paizo.com?
A: No, you do not! When you buy the digital source through Starfinder NEXUS you will automatically unlock access to the PDF from Paizo.com as part of that purchase (unless you already owned the PDF on Paizo.com - in that case, you will receive a discount for the Starfinder NEXUS source instead).
Q: What is a digital toolset?
A: A digital toolset is a term we use to describe the comprehensive set of features that you’ll have access to through a Nexus! It includes (but is not limited to):
- Digital Reader: Official game books in a web format, for easy reading. Includes cross-linking to find exactly what you need, and tooltips to keep the rules at your fingertips.
- Game Compendium: The game rules and options in searchable, filterable listings. Find what you’re looking for when prepping for play or to run games! Plus, in Paizo NEXUS Platforms (Pathfinder and Starfinder), all of this content is available FREE!
- Character Tools: High quality character tools built specifically for the game. Build characters in a guided format, make customizations to suit the rules of your table, and play directly from the sheet with everything right where you need it.
