How to add a cube?

PostPosted: 24 Sep 2018, 13:56

Hey guys, I'm sorry if this is obvious/already been answered, but I can't seem to find a clear path -

I want to add a cube to the list of cubes that can be drafted. This is my own cube. I made the list using a .dck and saved it under cubes in /res, but no luck as far as Forge detecting the cube. The formatting appears to be the same, besides the line breaks in the .dck itself, and when I removed the line breaks myself in Notepad, it did detect the cube but then caused Forge to crash, so obviously there is something I'm not doing right.

I was just wondering if I was on the right track (manually adding a cube via editing the .dck in notepad) or if there is a more obvious path I'm just not taking?

Thanks for the help!

What I do to create my own cube:

    Use default Forge deck editor to select which cards to add to your cube then save it.

    Locate your saved .dck file and edit it using any text editor (Notepad++ is my favourite)

    Your file must be formated as:
Code: Select all
[metadata]
Name=<your cube name (must match .dck filename)>
[Main]
4 Aegis Automaton|AER
1 <card name 2>|<set edition code>
<blablabla same format as above>
....
    Make sure your file saved in ANSI encoding
    Save your file to forge/res/cube as .dck file
    if you want to play your cube as draft create new file in forge/res/draft (also in ANSI encoding) following format:
Code: Select all
Name:<your draft name>
DeckFile:<your cube filename in forge/res/cube
Singleton:False

Booster: 15 Any
NumPacks: 3
Now enjoy your cube. Try restarting Forge if error occured.
Apologize for my broken English, but hope this help you.
