[QUOTE="Scurvy_Platypus, post: 5505490, member: 43283"] While I'm not quite sure how much I'd agree with the "difference in play" part (that I didn't include in the quote above), I'll definitely agree with the part I did quote from paradox42. There's been a _bunch_ of changes done in Pathfinder and you've got to watch out for them. In a lot of ways it's like the update from 3.0 to 3.5; you've got your overall basic system mastery, but enough has shifted that you're second-guessing yourself because you don't know if what you remember is _actually_ what the rules say now or not. And as was also pointed out, in addition to things like Skills, feats, and spells changing, there were changes made to the monsters as well. Not just the stat-block layout but the stats themselves. If you want to put this out in Pathfinder format, you should make sure you find yourself someone that's really up on the rules. Adamant put out their book "Tome of Secrets" and were almost immediately taken to task for the errors. To their credit they did go back and address the complaints, but gamers have a long memory and you don't want basic rule errors to be the first thing that pop into people's mind when they hear your product/company's name.
