Is Complete Warrior in OGL and in the SRD?

[jmucchiello]

I can't say anything about Deities & Demigods of Manual of the Planes. I know that material from neither appears in the SRD. I'm pretty sure Deities & Demigods is completely closed content; I'm not so sure about Manual of the Planes, but I believe it is closed as well (note: the SRD does contain a "Planes" chapter that is an overview of the basic D&D planar cosmology. I believe the same material appears in the Dungeon Master's Guide, and does not come from Manual of the Planes).

Essentially correct, and wrong at the same time. The content in D&DG is closed content. However, most of the crunch from D&DG is reprinted in the SRD. The Planes chapter from the DMG is different from the planes section in the SRD but they are similar. The UA is already OGC and there is no reason to add it to the SRD.

To answer your first question, Louis: no new material from Complete Warrior has been added to the SRD. Whether material in CW is open content or not is a question answerable only by someone who owns the book, and thus beyond my capacity.

Correct and no open content is in any Complete books. However, there are things in the complete book that ended up in the SRD because they came to the Complete books from the Epic handbook or psionics handbook. The SRD has two feat files: DeitiesPowersandFeats.rtf that contains some divine feats that have since ended up in Complete Divine. EpicFeats.rtf also has some non-epic feats in it. as does PsionicFeats.rtf.

And to reiterate some others here: why couldn't you just look at the SRD to see if anything from the complete books was there?

Probably the easiest way to get an asnwer to this question was to..err.... look at the SRD.

I did, just wanted to make sure I didn't over look something.

A lot of people suggested checking the SRD, I thought I'd go a step further and provide a couple links.

In addition to wizard's offical site, there's also this site which I like a lot. It's searchable and everything.

Some spells, such as Bolt of Glory, and some prestige domains from the D&DG book are in the SRD. The presitge domains are not called prestige domains in the SRD if I recall.

Seems my downloaded collection of SRD .rtf files is missing the Deities material. No wonder I thought none of it was in the SRD!

Essentially correct, and wrong at the same time. The content in D&DG is closed content. However, most of the crunch from D&DG is reprinted in the SRD.

Absolutely right, and a key semantic difference that I overlooked. The three core books are not open content... the SRD is open content. My hat's off to you for correcting me.

Hey, I will take a moment to pimp Creative Mountain Games' SRD pack. Mark does free updates. I use my SRD pack a lot and I am just a player/DM. For a publisher, I imagine it would be very worthwhile.
