Hi, i really need help with this. So ive made a bunch of cards with this

viewtopic.php?f=99&t=9780

When i finished i tried to make them into a deck, using several of the programs in the utilities section of this site and none have worked for me. Im not sure what to do. IS there any way someone could explain this to me? I would really appreciate it.

This is for 2013

Try to start from an existing WAD file, so you don't need to think about the WAD structure and you can concentrate on the deck only. Follow the tutorial on my signature.

I have made a wad now that works, Though there is not enough land in it.Your guide was very helpful and i thank you for that. Can you tell me how to increase the land count in a deck?

The basic lands are added until the deck reaches 60 cards. If you are planning to make a deck with more than 60 cards, you must add the basic lands manually to the deck list.

I do that by just adding land cards like i would add any other spell? I tried to, and it did not work. I believe my other spells are not above 60. But if i added land cards it would go above 60. Would that have any effect?

The effect is that it won't go above 60 automatically, because decks in DotP are planned to be 60 cards excluding unlockable cards, but introducing unlockable cards would give even more problems, so let's try this: do you have a line that starts with <LandConfig in your deck? If you have it, substitute it with the following, or just add the following if you don't have it already (before the first <CARD line):

Code: Select all: <LandConfig ignoreCmcOver="0" />

This should basically shut down automatic land adding. Then add all the lands you need as you do with the other spells.
