How to hide official decks?

[terrysong]

Hi, I have built several custom decks and I'm trying to play in 2014 with AI. I would like to play random decks but the official decks were in the pool so most of time I won't be able to play my custom decks. I don't want to select a particular custom deck but rather want to play random custom decks without the official decks involved.

So is there a way to hide the official decks so that they won't be selected by either myself or the AI when choosing random?

thanks!

You could create an override WAD with copies of the original Deck XMLs with an additional attribute, never_available, set to true. For example:

D14_AJANI.XML Adjusted | Open

Code: Select all

<DECK personality="D14_AJANI.XML" deck_box_image="D14_Ajani" deck_box_image_locked="D14_locked" cheat_menu_filter_deck_type="Standard" tus_save_data_id="10" ios_id_1="D14_DECK_UNLOCK_8" ios_id_2="D14_DECK_FOIL_8" steam_id_1="213908" steam_id_2="213909" android_id_1="d14_deck_unlock_08" android_id_2="d14_deck_foil_08" cheat_menu_filter_datapool="D14" content_pack="0" uid="10" is_white="true" name_tag="D14_AJANI" never_available="true" description_tag="DECK_DESCRIPTION_AJANI">

If that doesn't work you could always try changing the attribute cheat_menu_filter_deck_type from Standard to Challenge or Encounter.
