Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Then you most likely did not install the core wad of this mod. A mod's core wad generally contains cards, artwork, and functions that are required for the separate decks. Without the core the decks will not work properly.

Oh. Am I missing something here, unless I missed something in thefireminds thread his decks dont need a wad? Under the requirements there was only the game, the bypass, and the fixes which should be optional. It seems like it happens to custom decks from a bunch of other packs too, the same weird error of only having 5-6 cards. Well they have a ton of land cards.

Edit: so that core file is the wad then? It should work then right? I installed it as well. Ill try reinstalling everything.

I'm guessing this is the problem:

thefiremind wrote:[Deck_1999_Core]: this WAD contains cards and illustrations. It's the heart of the mod, and this means: don't just download the decks without this "Core", or they won't work.

and if you downloaded it, check that you downloaded it entirely, maybe the download got interrupted.

Most large mods have core wads, and decks from those mods will not work without them. Generally, when you see a bunch of land in a deck instead of the cards you should see, this means you are missing either the core wad or a wad from another mod that the deck is dependent on.

Hi, I have a problem.. When I'm winnig a game I can't unlock any new cards for my deck. What can I do for making it work? ):

Nothing: in my decks there are no unlocks that need winning to be unlocked, only promo unlocks. Read the section "Promo edition" decks on the first post.

Hi there.

I loved playing these decks on DOTP13 but is there anyway i can get these decks working with DOTP14?

I have already downloaded and installed your 2014 dlc pack which works fine, but i cant get these 2013 ones working, not sure if its to do with any new rules or the way game reads the wad files or new coding or something? but would be gr8 to have these decks too.

cheers. dave.

All DotP versions are different, you can't just put old mods in new games. Maybe one day I'll release a couple of those decks updated for DotP2014, but for now I prefer to spend my modding time inventing new ones, for personal enjoyment... after all, that's what a game is about.

yes thought that would be the case, but its no problem really, i can just fire up dotp2013 when i start to miss your old decks!

anyway havnt even tried your new decks on 2014 yet, only just got it, so i look forward to trying them out later.

cheers for the quick reply. dave.

My Sedris seems to work - I just grant the exile trigger abilities to the cards too. Check it out:

This would be a real blast if it works... but I can't understand why you wrote it in my DotP2013 mod topic...

I just searched for "Sedris" and picked this topic for some reason. From the tests I've done, it exiles correctly at end of turn and if the creature would be destroyed, there's no haste or exiling if you reanimate a creature with Dread Return, and there were no problems unearthing 2 creatures in a turn and having them die at different times. So... pretty sure it works.

I just tested it myself, and yeah, it seems to work fine! This is great news, I posted it on the right place.

Firemind, I've registered just to say "thank you so much!". This is a fantastic work, I really appreciate the translated cards and the detail you put on this.

Very glad to hear it.
My motto is: either you do something well, or you don't do it at all. And it's not just a fine answer for this circumstance: it really suits me.
