Just wanted to say that this is fantastic and just what I was looking for. Thank you very much!

Thanks a lot!  I'm glad you're getting good use out of it!

Small fix.  Updated app so that the card set view now works properly when the grid filters are on in case you need to compare sets while in filtered mode (wasn't working before).

Thanks!

Any chance we can get the final 2 packs on this wonderful builder?  

[Gamer257]

Yep.  Got the cards scanned in and just have to finish up the Octgn and Lackey keys.  I should have it out by the end of this weekend.

 

And on another note, I'm re-scanning my entire collection to have better looking images overall for the cards.  This is gonna take some time though....but once that is done, I'll release a "Completionist" edition of the builder with the complete card set recanned to high-res cleaner looking images (600 dpi).

[Gamer257]

The final two Force Packs have been added!

Wonderful work Gamer257!

[Gamer257]

Working on getting Legends of the Force added to the deck builder. I hope to have it available by this weekend.

Okay, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  Updated deckbuilder is out on my Google Drive here:

Thanks to Colby for the card images as I don't have the physical cards yet.  If anyone has really good hi-res scans of the physical cards, I'd be much obliged if you could send them to me.  Hope to see some of you on Octgn (or Lackey)!

 

Cheers!

First of all i want to thank you for all the work on the DeckBuilder it is an awesome tool and glad to know that you keep working on it...

 

I wanted to report some bugs:

 

- Objective Set Nº 248 (Threat from the Deeps - Scrap Metal) is a Sith objective and in faction appears "Smuggles and Spies" 

 

- I do not know if it a problem of my PC but I can't delete sets/cards from the deck once I add them

 

Best Wishes and Merry Chrismas to all 

[Gamer257]

Ah, thanks so much for the bug report, danielsan1008!  The objective set 248 objective card entry in Cards.txt has the incorrect faction in the flat file (i.e. typo).  I'll have that fixed in the next update and I am looking into the intermittent delete set problem.  I hope to have it fixed within the next few days if my work life allows it.  Thanks again for the feedback!

[Gamer257]

Well, turns out I had some time tonight to fix those bugs.  I uploaded a new full setup file to my Google drive for those who want the improvements.  I do suggest that you uninstall the old version off your Windows before installing this new one.

Had to change how sets are removed from a deck.  it no longer uses a double-click, but a right-click.  The ReadMe.txt and Update.txt files have the details.

 

Thanks again for the feedback!

Been using the online deckbuilder but just discovered this offline iteration. Really fantastic! Thank you so much!

[Miximus2]

This deckbuilder is great indeed! I might switch over to this deckbuilder completely haha. 

 

If I may make a request: Would it be able to add a box for the absolute and/or average Force Icons of the cards per selected objective sets in the deck stats tab? 

I've always desired that from the deckbuilder on this site

[Gamer257]

Great suggestion, Miximus2!  I've added it to my list of things to look into for enhacements.

I'm currently making the Octgn Set.xml for the Frozen in Carbonite Cycle.  This will allow me to easily incorporate it into my deckbuilder AND easily add it to Octgn (2 birds with one stone sort of thing.)  The Mandalorian Cycle will be next after this cycle.

 

As I'm going through and entering all the data from the cards, a question occurred to me, Darthbs.  When a card allows me to search through my deck and add a card to my hand, it doesn't say anything about revealing that card to my opponent before adding it to my hand.  Is this intentional, or is the reveal implied?  My thinking is that you should have to reveal the card to your opponent, to avoid any cheating (I know, I know....we're all honest here).   But other than that question, the Cycle is excellent!  Really great work you've done here!

[Gamer257]

Okay, latest update to deckbuilder is out on the google drive here: https://drive.google...sRY?usp=sharing

File is BIG (~431 MB), doubled in size because of Frozen in Carbonite cards added.  I was lazy and did not "downsize" them.  Upside is they look reeeeal pretty in the card viewer.  Let me know what bugs you find, if you could be so kind.  Thanks.

You can grab the pack now if you'd like, but it won't work until I get the Octgn plugin updated..  I have the update set done and ready to go into Octgn (cards only, no automation).  I just need to know where to put it so it gets to the right spot for plugin updating.  BolivarShagnasty, are you out there anywhere?  Anyone else know where Octgn updates get "placed" to be in the update path?

Mandalorian Cycle is next in line.

[Miximus2]

Great work Gamer257! Can't wait to see all the cycles included and make EVEN MORE decks than I already have haha.  I just love the theory crafting!

 

Another two suggestions from something I noticed.

1. In the deck editor tab, the colums cant be moved around or sorted (yet). If possible, I think that the option to set the card ability text colum as the 4th colum (for example) could improve the deckbuilder even more than it already is! 

2. During the development of the Mandalorian cycle, I was constantly scouring cgdb for existing abilities and previous wordings. The option to search for 'card text' really helped in that regard. So far I see you have used drop down menu's to filter on stuff like traits. Do you think a variable text search option would be possible? 

[Gamer257]

Great ideas Miximus2, and I've added them to my list.  One "secret" about software development, is that almost anything is possible IF YOU HAVE THE TIME.  Time is your most precious commodity and choosing where to spend it and how much of it is a constant struggle. 

That being said, the Mandalorian Cycle is up next and then the Return to Hoth Cycle (probably)....and then after that, time permitting, I'll take a look at the improvements/features list.  I make no promises as to when each will be done as this is all 'pro-bono' work because of my love for this card game and it's most excellent community of gamers that I've met surrounding it.

 

Again, excellent suggestions!  They are on the list of features to get to.  Thanks for your interest!

[Gamer257]

All card images have been updated for the Octgn image packs and that means they've also been updated for my Offline Deckbuilder.  Only drawback is that the installer file went from 432MB to 1.8GB!  But the cards are soooo much more appealing to the eye.  Another drawback was I had to change the download location as my personal Google Drive was running out of space.  So I "smurfed" another google account (swlcgguy@gmail.com if you want to email me anything about the deckbuilder or Octgn plugin). 

 

The installer is now here:  https://drive.google...EIe?usp=sharing

Thanks for your interest in this great game!
