Heroes of Faerûn NOT compatible with older sheets!

Ok this is a big fucking NO-NO for Roll20. You can't sell a godamn supplement if its not coded for the older sheets godamnit! This is absolute horseshit and completely unacceptable. Anytime I try to drag and drop one of the spells onto the older sheets it just adds it under the cantrips with nothing else in the spell except the name. FIX THIS

DM Deadman, is says right in the description that this this supplement is a  D&D 2024 Player Bundle . The D&D 5e by Roll20 (2014) sheet is not  (and will not be) compatible with the D&D 2024 compendiums. You can use the 2014 sheet, but any 2024 content has to be added manually.

Show me WHERE it says specifically that this content is NOT compatible with the older 2014 sheets, give me a screenshot from the product description please, I'll save you the time...you can't because they didn't state that anywhere in the product description.

The supplement states that it's a 2024 Player Bundle. It doesn't need to say that it's not compatible with any character sheet designed for an earlier version of the game (D&D 2014, 3rd edition, AD&D, etc.) When choosing the character sheet for your game the old character sheet says it's for D&D 2014 and the new one says it for 2024/2014. One solution you might try is to have both character sheets available in your game so that players who want to use the new content have that option (you can add the 2024 sheet as an option under the setting tab in the game). Compatibility issues between the old character sheet and the new content -  and the reasons for them-  have been discussed in several forum threads ever since the 2024 sheet was release. Edited to add a screen shot of the character sheet options under Game Settings and within the game:

I think it does NEED to say that due to the situation I and others are dealing with. A simple line at the top saying "Not compatible with the older 2014 sheets." is an easy fix to add to their listings vs a DM accidentally buying the product and now them and the Roll20 team needing to go through the refund process.  I dont want to use the newer sheets, because I dont like their layout and more importantly they have had the issue of wiping all the content from them TWICE, I have games that run for years and I'm not risking that on my players.

I suggest that you post a suggestion to the devs  to do that in the future (and maybe even retroactively for existing items in the marketplace). I'll be making the same suggestion myself, as well as posting it under the Suggestions section of the forum. I don't like the new 2024 sheet either, but my players and I are sticking to the 2014 rules and ignoring the new content for now.
