Yes, Yugico works exactly the same way, pretty much. You have to go to the card's page, copy and paste the link, and upload the image. Easy as that.

 

Also, check to make sure that you're folder settings for that set are set to Public, otherwise you'll get an error.

 

I meant use a wiki image of the card so I can just use that instead of going through the other trouble of cropping out the center picture and posting it using that. >>

 

Also, is there no one using this or something?

I am excited to hear this :) Can you tell me over PM or is it a surprise?

 

Nothing much of the sort. Remember when we had the tourney when DP first started up? I was thinking of bringing something like that back. There would be a cut-off point like how TCG does cut-offs with certain Boosterpacks (i.e., anything past ORCS is Forbidden and can't be used, or anything past DT07 can't be used, etc.). Just something like that of the sort.

 

A lot of effort to go through, I know, but it was simply a suggestion when everything gets fixed.

 

I would be on a lot more if there was support for cards made by MSE, or at least an option to upload your pictures from your hard disk :/

 

Yugico is way better than MSE anyway. :|

No it isn't. At least not for realism.

So how does this actually work?

 

 

It should go without saying that reading 30+ pages of posts with 600+ replies is a little daunting.

 

 

I read the first post, but the registration link hasn't been working at all, even if it says it's not necessary (but obviously proper protocol would mean one should anyway). So this is a program that has to be installed right? Like YVD? Beyond that, how does one actually upload their own cards if one doesn't use YCMaker itself or Yugico (I make all my own cards using Photoshop and a template of my own design and maintenance, obvious example of one is in my signature).

 

 

How often are the instructions on the first post updated? Are they up to date?

Basically, you upload cards and play with them against others.

Hmm, you are right. I haven't gotten the chance to check that link since just recently because it was blocked from my university server.

Everything you need is in that zip file, so it's just a download.

 

Beyond that, how does one actually upload their own cards if one doesn't use YCMaker itself or Yugico (I make all my own cards using Photoshop and a template of my own design and maintenance, obvious example of one is in my signature).

Right now only YCM and Yugico cards are supported. I'll support other images in the next update.

 

If it's any consolation, the images are shrinked down to 55 x 81 pixels so you probably won't notice any major differences between the templates.

They are fairly recent, except for the chatroom registration you just mentioned.

I mean is it text based and I still get to just write in cards of my own that don't have images into the program or do I have to use YCM anyway to upload my cards? I don't get too much time to experiment with programs lately.

 

You upload cards by using the Code Creator in the program. You write the effect, give the appropriate stats, attribute, and Type, and then the program converts it into YVD format to use within the program. YCM is merely icing on the cake.

It does it in YVD format on its own? I'm so used to converting my own work to YVD format for this sort of thing anyway (since I normally use YVD). The problem with that originally was someone having to have your cards in their "master" file for them to show so you could only test with friends. I started thinking about keeping one "master" YVD file on Google Drive shared for sync with various friends to add in their cards and then we would keep copy pasting the text of the master file into our own masters when we played each other.

 

 

Who wrote this program?

And anyone can play with any of the cards I upload or just whole decks I save? As in if I wanted to put some of my cards in for other people to try for me and tell me what they think (because just me using them wouldn't really give me proper feedback on strategies).

 

 

I mean I would think that would be the TRUE feedback on our work, not how we, the creators, use them but how others use them and play them their way with their own personalities and mentality showing through. Like I said on the Bloodwater thread, most people wouldn't know how to run that sort of deck even if they copied unless it was made to be more "push-button-win-here" sort of cards and I try to avoid that as much as humanly possible, but I still have to see how other people would use them that I maybe wouldn't.
