Discard Deck and Lim-Dul's Vault

Just a Discard Deck. It doesn't contains any text permanent AND it has the DIMIR image. You need the DLC with DIMIR.


PS I need to implement Lim-Duls Vault. But i have a lot of problem because i'm not very skilled on card implementation. If somebody can help me i will be grateful

Whoa, Lim-Dûl's Vault is one hell of a card to make... don't feel frustrated if you can't code it. It will probably give some problems to me as well, but I should be able to get it done with some patience.

I have put my version here (so we can always find all the requested cards in one topic, otherwise it's a big mess) but it suffers the same problem.

AI can't use combo cards what do you think they will get with Lim-Dûl's Vault? Couple basics or some Underground Sea :lol:

About TEXT_PERMANENT.
I need to know some information. If i include in my DECK a folder named TEXT_PERMANENT and inside it i put my texts permanent XML files, it should work fine, because so happens in most of decks of other modders i studied.

But when i try to do that, my decks still don't have Name and my text permanent about DECK is not read at all.
Viceversa, some TEXT permanent as the one firemind put in the Lim Duls Vault , works really fine.

I seen the TEXT PERMANENT for a DECK NAME. It seems to me that the only job to do is to copy another TEXT permanent and adds rows with the name of the deck in the various languages.
There are some other links that i don't see??
The name of the TEXT PERMANENT FILE should be particular?

I beg your pardon for the noise i'm adding to you.

The name of the directory TEXT_PERMANENT must be TEXT_PERMANENT, but the names of the files inside it don't matter. The contents of the files do matter especially due to the namespaces that the file references.

For example this is a pretty minimal Text Permanent file:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?mso-application progid="Excel.Sheet"?>
<Workbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet">

    <Created>2013-05-24T11:05:29Z</Created>
    <Company>
    </Company>
  </DocumentProperties>
  <Worksheet ss:Name="Sheet4">
    <Table>
      <Row>
        <Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Ident</Data></Cell>
        <Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Comment</Data></Cell>

        <Cell><Data ss:Type="String">New Deck</Data></Cell>
      </Row>
    </Table>
  </Worksheet>
</Workbook>
It has an XML Declaration, an XML Program Directive (saying it is an Excel Spreadsheet), defines a Workbook, Document Properties (the properties may not be needed), a single Worksheet (with the name "Sheet4" since all of the official ones use "Sheet4"), with a table, a header row (to identify the columns), and defines a single string "DECK_100045_NEW_DECK" as "New Deck" in all the languages.

It should also be noted that XML is CaSe SeNsItIvE, so "cell" != "Cell", "WorkBook" != "Workbook", etc.... Also the ss:Name, ss:Index, and ss:Type attributes are more than likely required as they are defined as required by the namespaces. Same with the xmlns attributes to define the namespaces.

The data in the first cell of each row (other than the header row) is the string defined for that row. It must be the same as the string you are trying to define (in uppercase). So if your Deck's filename is "D13_1234_My_New_Deck.xml" then the data in the first cell of the row should be "D13_1234_My_New_Deck". If you see a string in the game with [] around it it is because that string is not defined (or not defined properly).

Edited because apparently it doesn't uppercase deck names for the string look up.

So, my deck name is DECK_FammiGiocareUB_108 (the name of the XML DECK file)

I used your code like this.

    </Table>
  </Worksheet>
</Workbook>
It is in a XML File in TEXT_PERMANENT folder. But i still have the deck name between square brackets [DECK_FammiGiocareUB_108]

There's some link i miss, maybe some OTHER file that have to refers to this Text Permanent file??

This:
Code: Select all
[DECK_FammiGiocareUB_108]
tells me that it is looking for "DECK_FammiGiocareUB_108" which means it actually does string look ups using the exact name of the deck instead of the uppercase name of the deck. So in your text permanent file it should be:
Code: Select all
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">DECK_FammiGiocareUB_108</Data></Cell>
Most modders make all their files UPPERCASE so they don't run into problems like this.

That is exactly what i done before opening this topic. Because nor in that way the text works.

That could mean there is an issue where the game won't load it unless it is in all caps then. Have you tried making it all caps in the text permanent file AND making the deck filename all caps?

Re: Discard Deck and Lim-Dul's Vault

PostPosted: 29 May 2013, 22:59
by libertyfighter
Finally get rid of that.
So the name must be in uppercase AND the name of the TEXT PERMANENT file with the deck must have the same name of the deck xml file, except for DECK_ and TEXT_

That is at least what it seems
