Community Wad Decks

I answered in the other thread and it should be noted that when you post a question, especially when asking for help that you post in a single place and not in multiple threads.

Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum and also not completely familiar with custom decks on DotP2014.
But I downloaded Raiik's Deck Builder, I downloaded Community_Wad_core and Community Wad Art.
To be sure that I don't screw up my game, I used the Skidrow DotP2014 torrent for testing.
When I made a deck and exported the WAD and Directory to my game folder, I started the game.
I noticed that apparently only the cards from (original) DATA DECKS D14 are working and DATA DLC COMMUNITY CORE don't.

Can somebody please help me?

You need one more file: Rick's cracked DLL. viewtopic.php?f=99&t=10896 Drop it into your game folder.

EDIT: Yeah. I just answered, opened up the other thread, and noticed the question again. I promise, that's not necessary. Those of us that can answer will find your question in any of the DotP threads.

Sorry about that
Thank you so much for your help!

Xander, in your deck Defend the Sentinel there a 4 copies of Explosive Vegetation. Unfortunately there is not a single basic land in that deck. Is there a combat trick that I am not aware of?

Actually, that was leftover from when the deck only had basic lands. So, there's no trick, I just forgot to replace them. I've switched out a single Guardian Zendikon and the four Explosive Vegetation for 3 Sylvan Scrying and 2 Grand Melee. Grand Melee might seem like an odd choice, but in many cases, I've found myself wishing the enemy would attack. Whether because of Perimeter Captain or Sprouting Phytohydra, forcing the enemy to attack can often be a good advantage; especially when your creature are relatively unaffected. With Symbiotic Deployment, you can usually tap whatever creature you don't want to have to use to block, although for most of the defenders, it wouldn't matter because they can survive many battles.

Unfortunately, my game crashed when testing that setup before I could get the card out. But I'd already won at that point (I had out 10 defenders, one of which was Vent Sentinel).

Same here. Game crashed when resolving the life gain from Perimeter Captain with 7 defenders blocking. At least the life gain seems to be working, although it does not ask if I 'may'.

[Xander9009]

Alright. Either the problem isn't stemming from Perimeter Captain, or it's fixed. It's an incredibly simple ability, and there aren't many ways for it go wrong. I added in a couple of nil checks, but beyond that, there's nothing to be changed. If it still crashes, it's not Perimeter Captain. I added in a MAY tag.

[Kithkin]

Xander, in case you have not noticed. There is a user named ThisIsBull45 who keeps deleting deck files for no apparent reason.

[Xander9009]

No, I wasn't aware of that. I don't actually mess with it too much. I've been really busy with Pull from Eternity. Decks can no longer be added directly to the Decks folder. Instead, there's now a subfolder titled "Add Decks Here". Drop them there, and within about a minute of Google Drive syncing them to my computer, it'll be moved to the main decks folder. This makes it so anyone can still add new decks, but only I can remove them.

In other words: If someone needs a file removed, you need to tell me so I can remove it for you.

EDIT: I only saw two decks deleted. I readded them both.

[Kithkin]

Xander, GoogleDrive does not let me add files to the "add decks here" folder.

[Xander9009]

Try it now.

I've decided I want to upload my decks to the community drive (I only just noticed you have decks as well), but there are cards I use that aren't available in the community WAD. Some I've coded myself, and I'd be happy to make them available in the community WAD, if I knew how. Others are from mods that I assume you weren't able to get permission to use...so what can we do about that?

Also, all my decks have the Unique ID prefix of 1000, which I see is being used (not surprisingly), but I don't know how to change that using Riiak's deck builder. Does anybody know how?

[Xander9009]

CHange it riiak's deck builder by clicking Tools->Options and find Use Block ID. That will be 1000. Change it to a unique number and add that number next to your username here.

As for adding cards to the CW yourself, send me an email at Xander9009@gmail.com and I'll grant you permission to add cards. There are more instructions here in the original CW thread I made. Look at the section titled "ADD CARDS AS A MODDER".

Ignore the bit about approximations. I'd like for that to be a thing, but I know I myself have added a number of approximated cards that I didn't add to that spreadsheet.

Also, when it talks about the Requirements and Naming file, it's down a few levels in the CORE wad folder.

There were a few modders that never gave me permission (they never read the message in which I asked), so their cards haven't been added. But yes, I managed to get permission from almost every modder on the forums.

Alternatively (although I'd rather you try the above), you can zip the files and send them to me in a PM or post the code for the cards in the CW thread for me to add them.

Thanks, I'll see how I go.
