Hey, what all needs to be there for the software to read my plugin? Cause I'm working on my own card game, but the software still won't let me choose my plugin for me to run it.
Follow all directions here: http://lackeyccg.com/plugintutorial.html (http://lackeyccg.com/plugintutorial.html)
That didn't help. It still won't work. The tutorial was the first thing I did.
How about getting specific. Possibly post a link to your plugin? You can't just say "FIX IT NOW" and expect anyone to know what to do...
I'll try to figure that part out as well.
Plugin (http://warriorsofthekingdom.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=pz&thread=1) There's the URL for the plugin. Couldn't attach it here, the attachment size was an inhibitor.
Looking at your plugininfo, I noticed that you were using spaces instead of tabs.
I also noticed that you have a TRANSFERCARD without the needed numbers behind it to tell it what to do. You only use TRANSFERCARD if you want a function of moving a card in one specific spot to another (like milling in MTG will always take the top card of library and put in graveyard).
You were also missing GENERALFUNCTION6.
I have attached a fixed copy and will look at the card data next

In your card data baseset.txt (and BTW, if you ever plan to make more sets in the future I suggest you just rename this as carddata.txt and change the setlist.txt accordingly) I found some extra items under the set column without a card name, which could give you trouble. I also put in a temporary name for each of your card image names, which you can sort out later.

I notice that your image folders are not set up exactly right. Inside your sets folder you need a new folder called setimages. You will need to place your general folder inside setimages. So you will have the following file structure LackeyCCG\plugins\Warriors of the Kingdom\sets\setimages\general
Should be like this
(Folder with the name of the game)
plugininfo.txt
setlist.txt
Packs (Folder)
packdefinitions.txt
SamplePack.jpg
Sets (Folder)
SetImages (Folder)
setinfo.txt
General (Folder)
cardback.jpg
spawned.jpg
First Set (Folder(can name it whatever your first set is called if you wish))
????.jpg (your set folders other than general hold your card pics)
those files seem to benn 100% required no if ands or buts about it.
What issues are you having?
Well, it runs, but now it crashes Lackey, so I dunno.
Can you put the plugininfo.txt in a post please so i can look at it
and i'll also need carddata.txt/setinfo.txt
that way i can find out if u mess up in one of those
http://warriorsofthekingdom.proboards.com/index.cgi is the website to find the plugin. Go to the Plugin Zone board to download the main one. It should be the first reply to the Main Plugin thread.
just put it here, not in the mood to sign up for more stuff this week.
already signed up for like 6 forums trying to find artists for my game
It's too big. It won't let me upload it.
Here it is.

so your columns are setup in your card file?
YEah
Here's the card file.

Check list
setlist.txt = correct
plugininfo.txt = looks fine
baseset.txt = columns are there so its fine
1. your missing baseset(folder under setimages to hold the pictures of your cards) not the problem though
Good
Files you should atleast add to the plugin so it atleast looks more complete
in your plugin folder
defaultchat.txt
updatelist.txt
recentdesks.txt
Folders (still in your main folder)
packs (for dafts incase you wish to let ppl play that way)
sounds (custom sounds for your game)
saved (idk what this is for just add it anyways lol)
images (custom images for your phases)
One possible reason it will run but will crash lackey is because of the name of the plugin. All the other plugins have a single word name like Magic, VTES, harrypotter, etc. perhaps your should change the plugin name (folder) to be WotK and test it out again.
It works now, so I dunno that the name was ever a problem.
