Format of the XML Spreadsheet Yourname_CARD_TEXT:


If you want to see some of the capabilities of a MOD download this fake dlc, uncompress to your MTG DOTP directory. This add Some cards from the Alpha set
http://www.mediafire.com/file/d2umorjzlzh/Data_DLC_9999.rar

We can mix and make any deck we want to play against the AI. Any group working on making cards? I can pack and unpack the .TDX but each card is numbered and don't want to mess up anything if someone is going to add some cool things to this.

Sadly, and no explination our mod group was shut down at Steam. Waiting on some offical word as to "WHY".

Have fun.

Yes we are working on this tutorial to make it a little extended. ill post here the cards i already have from alpha set im trying to finish Nevinyrrals disk but crashes the game still ill post the rest today. hope to see you here again.

Thank you for the fast response!!! Looking forward to your tutorial.

I understand mostly what the text in the cards call for effect,sfx,art, and so on. I need someone with more knowledge about this. I guess I could trash my Core_Wad if I mess it up, but was hoping for a group of others interested in this, and getting on the right path. Right now I have tools, and a few obscure posts.

Thanx Uresti!!! I get a whole lot of PM's from folks that want to at least edit their decks. Just would rather have contact with a group of peeps that know what they are doing.

Have a awesome day!!!

BTW Great Job on the Alpha cards. Now if we can get a bunch of peeps working on this.

Tell those folks at Steam to come over here. This topic will not be deleted.

About the numbered TDX they dont need to be numbers thast just the format DEVs choosed, mines have they respective name for easy access, we will cover that later . Like Huggybaby said tell to all the people we are starting a comunity safe from steam hands

Ok, will post. One banned steam account coming up. doubt thread will stay long.

Keep the good stuff coming.

Now, how do you flag a deck to be usable without unlocking it? I am talking about the ones you make.

<MULTICARDS>
<DECK always_available="true">
<CARD>
<UID uid="1145389901" />
<DATASET name="Constructed_Deck" /> Use the same UID in the DATASET file in the same name folder

Don't forget the power of the private message.
<edit> I just saw all your messages over there, good job.

thanx Huggybaby!!! I don't want to get to the point of changing their code, or do anything that would cause loss of sales. There are no laws against adding to content, as long as the original content remains the same. If that were the case, then nobody could type a paper using microsoft Word, as that would be adding to their word document.

Still a little unclear on making a deck "Not Locked"
ones you create, not original's. I could just unlock them all, but defeats the purpose.

Use the same UID in the DATASET file in the same name folder

I thought the UID was just a number for different decks or the ID for the deck. I must have went to the dataset "Folder" I'll look for a file called that.

Have fun.

thats the line you should add, and if in some case that doesnt work. delete your profile.

Duhhhhh. Delete your profile...........delete your profile...... Oh, my gosh. Why the heck I not think of that?? Of course, the profile would only contain the decks I have unlocked according to what was saved when I first started the game.

Done, and working I even got my black deck showing as black now, when before it would not.

<COLOUR black="true" />

Thank you for the help.... been looking at this for hours. (Slaps self again.)

Have fun.

It taps creatures!!!!!!

gave up on trying to get it to tap artifacts and lands.

I think it best to just change the flavor text, once I figure why my text is missing string and messed up.

Cool! hope we get an Icy shortly.. why you dont try something like:


ClearFilter()
Object():GetFilter():NotTargetted()
Object():GetFilter():AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_LAND )
Object():GetFilter():AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_ARTIFACT )
Object():GetFilter():AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_CREATURE )
Object():GetFilter():AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_ENCHANTMENT )
Object():GetFilter():AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_PLANESWALKER )
Object():GetFilter():AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_LAND )
return TargetPermanentNeutralBad() <--Or PermamentBad is you only want tap opponents
ChooseTarget("blah blah blah")
