How to include a deck from openCards into Deckbuilder?
Posted July 11th, 2008 by WebMaster
You can include all ST2E decks you find on openCards into ST2E Deckbuilder. All you have to do is download the XML File representation of a particular deck and then open that XML file on your computer with ST2E Deckbuilder!
Step by step guidance
- First, open the deck on openCards you like to include. You can use the deck search section to find decks by players, affiliations and so on.
- When you open a deck you find a link to the XML file representation of that deck (right above the Mission cards).
- Click the right mouse button above this link and choose the option "save target as". Then a window should open to store the XML file on your computer. You can select any destination on your computer to store this file - but there is also a common destination within you ST2E Deckbuilder installation: if you use the default installation path for ST2E Deckbulder you can use "C:\Programme\uct\db2e\decks\other" for your downloads.
- After saving the deck on your local computer you can open it with ST2E Deckbuilder. Click on the "open Deck" Button or use the menu "deck-open" in the main ST2E Deckbuilder window. After the "open"/"öffnen" window shows up, select the directory where you have stored the XML File. After selecting the file press the "open" / "öffnen" button and the deck appears in your Deckbuilder. Now you can user all Deckbuilder functions with this deck as usual - you can analyse or modify the deck by your needs!
