Hello again guys,
I wonder what has happened to the DeckPadd. Is it no longer updated?

Yeah I think @Mugato hasn't updated DeckPADD in about 3 years.

Thx for a quick reply.
Any chance to talk him (or anyone else) into updating it? If not, what are the current tools (not counting the premium deckbuilder)?

hi Vlad,

have you tried my deckbuilder?

Whaaaaaat, how did I not know about this? Nebula broke on my MacBook years ago, wish I'd known about Virtual Folder.

Would you consider making this open source so that others can contribute too?

sorry i've never made any big announcements here because there were DeckPADD and Nebula, and i didn't want to step on anyone's toes...

not right now, as i'm in the middle of a huge rewrite... but i'll consider it once that has reached a sharable state (or should i give up).

Thank you Steven, I will give it a shot. That being said, I do like deckpadd. Had been using it for many years up until I stopped playing. I wonder why no one bothers to update it. Some legal issues? Technical issues? or does everyone else but me use premium deckbuiler and/or your database?

[Fritzinger]

I think the maintainer (was it Tyler?) disappeared from this site and probably stopped playing.

@Mugato maintained DeckPADD and yes, he has been inactive for awhile now.

I think this guess is correct. Also, I know some people happily build decks in Lackey too.

Guess the update doesn't look too complex, just needs updates. Keywords; Skills (why just Leadership x2?); Errata; Cards from Zero Hour and up all need work.
What are the special freatures of Deckpadd?

Yeah, I've not been able to stay active but I still sign in from time to time. I still love the game and this community.

The card list was extracted from the trekcc database as a text file. There were a couple of small modifications I had to do (like the number of staffing icons on U.S.S. Relativity, Federation Timeship was larger than the text box I had originally created. If I can get a new exported text file, I can test it and document those steps so anyone can update it in the future.

I did have a drive failure a few years ago. What I thought was the backup of the source code was not the most recent version so I don't know that I can update the DeckPADD UI for new headquarters, filters & such. I'll see if I can find it again.
