I see it is still having problems with BANISHING_STROKE_623637.XML and BONFIRE_OF_THE_DAMNED_623705.XML in your version of Deck_0621_ST.wad. Other than that though all the other "Errors" seem to be related to a problem in the card/deck (Bad Multiverse IDs [which should still load the card], invalid XML) or just informational (UID Conflicts, multiple localizations, etc...).
So you are still getting "Out of Memory" exceptions? I guess I could remove the image cache (probably just add an option and default it to turn off the cache) and see if that helps. It will mean it will take longer to build the images because they will have to be loaded each time they're used.

Also, since that last crash, I am no longer able to save decks either by Save or Save As... and even when it prompts me when I close the program it does nothing.

I have just put up a new version which will allow the image cache to be turned on and off (off by default). Without the image cache the card preview images will build slower and it will take more time to load up (will load some images several times to build the casting cost images). I also built a 64-bit version so that the program can use more memory if you want the image cache on.
I have not seen anything that would stop it from saving (though I did see a bug that would prevent built-in personalities from being saved to a deck). I'm still able to successfully save out partially built decks using both "Save" and "Save As" and there hasn't been any code changes to the save functionality (other than just now to fix the built-in personality bug). Are you sure you are checking the directory where you saved to (because you can save anywhere)?

Bumbled around and made two different decks with no crashes and with the exception of when I scroll a long way really fast, the lag is hardly noticeable.

Well, cool that probably means we got rid of the "Out of Memory" exceptions. Just out of curiosity, which version were you using the 32-bit or 64-bit version?BloodReyvyn wrote:Bumbled around and made two different decks with no crashes and with the exception of when I scroll a long way really fast, the lag is hardly noticeable.
Edit: I guess I should probably mention that when you start scrolling I turn off updating the card preview while scrolling and for 0.1 seconds afterward specifically to cut down on lag.

Hi, I have a problem (probably a stupid one). I'm trying to cleanse my decks of every mox I can find, but when I try to export it I get this message "unique id conflict detected". I read the "readme" file and found that I had to "...change the Id Scheme options to help prevent unique id collisions with other modders", which I think is the problem. The thing is that i dont know exactly what to change. All I did was change the scheme type and some numbers under that, but I still get the same message. Help please!

The Id Scheme is to try and eliminate UID conflicts, but this assumes that once you have set up an Id Scheme that when you are creating a deck you go into "Deck Information" and click "Get First Available Id" which will find an unavailable Id given your Id Scheme settings.Jorlap wrote:Hi, I have a problem (probably a stupid one).

If you are using the default settings and you create from an existing deck with a UID greater than 99 (highly likely unless you pick one of the built-in game decks) then you will notice that the Id in Deck information is set to 99 (I clamp it to the nearest number in the valid range). Once you have exported one deck like this the next one will say there is a UID conflict unless you changed the Id in the deck information.
You can export with the same UID as another deck, but it is very likely to cause problems in game if you do so (hence why I give the message when you try to export).
I should also note that this tool is not intended to "edit" decks, but is to "create" decks so outputs from this tool will likely show up separately in the deck manager in game from the original deck you "edited".

Thanks for the fast answer.
I did try to create a deck but there are a lot of cards that are missing. I'm not sure where the list gets its cards from, so I sticked to the cards I have seen and played with in-game, but still there where some missing.
I noticed the extra decks being created so I just erased the original.

It gets the card list from the WADs you have installed. If you remove a WAD you may also be removing the cards you need to make a deck work properly. When this tool creates a deck it does not copy the cards into the new WAD due to the complexities of checking card dependencies. If you look at the readme that is generated for each deck it will tell you based on the cards you picked what WADs are required for which decks.

I found a couple other minor issues:
When trying to set my filter for creatures' power I got this error:
And also, if I out anything at all into the sub-type filter, it filters every card.

I have not been able to reproduce this as it should limit all input in those boxes to either a star "*" or a number. If you can tell me how to reproduce this it will be helpful.BloodReyvyn wrote:I found a couple other minor issues:

Regardless I have added an extra check in the filter object itself, so that if it detects an invalid value it will report it in my error log along with the card value it was checking along with the check value you specified for the filter. If it detects an invalid value it will ignore that specific check rather than crash or disable all filters.
It seems to work fine for me. If I put in contains elf it gives me all the cards with elf in the type line. If I just put "sh" it gives me shamans, shrines, shapeshifters, jellyfish, fish, and viashinos. Granted I'm using English as my interface language.BloodReyvyn wrote:And also, if I out anything at all into the sub-type filter, it filters every card.
For all of the filters that accept text (Name, Sub-Type, Abilities) it will check based on your chosen interface language. So for example if your language is Japanese (日本語) to search for elves you would enter エルフ instead of elf. In Italian you could search for elfo (though in the case of Italian elf would also work because elfo has elf in it).
If you set it to Equals then it will look at all the sub types and only show if the entire subtype string equals (case insensitive). So in this case if you look for equal elf in Italian you would get no results because the cards would have type elfo instead of elf. The reverse is true for Not Equal if you put in not equal elf for the sub type and your language is Italian then you will still get elves like Ambush Commander and Caller of the Claw because they are elfo not elf in Italian.
Given the complexities there with language and comparison being possible issues to try and replicate your problem I'm going to need to know exactly what string you typed in to the sub type filter as well as what you set for your display language.
Once I can confirm (and/or reproduce) the problem you are having with the sub type filter I should be able to release an updated version that will fix that problem.

I set the filter for power to be Greater than or Equal to 5. Only other filters I was using was Blue, Black, Multicolored, and Red with "Any Combination Of."
As for as the other filter, I tried to put in Gate, but then realized after looking at the Gates, the program doesn't seem to use the custom specs and instead returns "CARD_SUBTYPE_GATE" as it's type, so I guess the program doesn't recognize custom SPECS, which is fine because there really aren't many anyway.

This works perfectly for me, so I don't know what went wrong. I guess it's possible there is a card with a bad value somewhere in your installed mods.BloodReyvyn wrote:I set the filter for power to be Greater than or Equal to 5. Only other filters I was using was Blue, Black, Multicolored, and Red with "Any Combination Of."
The deck builder doesn't read the SPECS at all, because it doesn't really benefit the program.BloodReyvyn wrote:As for as the other filter, I tried to put in Gate, but then realized after looking at the Gates, the program doesn't seem to use the custom specs and instead returns "CARD_SUBTYPE_GATE" as it's type, so I guess the program doesn't recognize custom SPECS, which is fine because there really aren't many anyway.
Actually, the filter shouldn't have any problem handling custom types as long as they are added to the localization. If you see something in the program come up as [<some string>] then that means that the program could not find a localized string in the localization for it. For example in DECK_AMONGST_GODS, Urza's Power Plant has the wrong subtypes set for it the author of the card used "POWER" (unknown subtype) and "PLANT" (creature subtype) instead of "POWER PLANT" (land subtype) so it shows up in my window as "Land - Urza's [CARD_SUBTYPE_POWER] Plant" because CARD_SUBTYPE_POWER is not defined in the localization. In your case if you wanted to add Gate to your localization you could simply add:
- Code: Select all
<STRING key="CARD_SUBTYPE_GATE"><![CDATA[Gate]]></STRING>
Searching is similar if you were searching for contains gate it should have still shown up because gate is part of [CARD_SUBTYPE_GATE], if you were looking for equal gate then it would not have shown up due to missing the localization.
Edit: v1.0.2.1 is now up and has an additional check for the power/toughness filters and the localizations have been updated with the "Gate" subtype added.
