I'm not sure without looking if that's possible or not. If it was, then using just numbers would suit a more minimalistic, abstract diplomacy mod like the other option available in Core quite well I think.

However for my mod, the intention is to keep the look and feel of a card-playing game, and to me those columns of counters are very much a part of that.

I'm sorry if this question has been covered before but I'm interested in moving my cards around in the library. There are even some cards that I would love to remove from the library and bank them because I don't use them at all in my current level and most strategies. Some may feel that would not be a wise thing to do because you never know when you might need that card for a parley, but I'd still like to be able to do it. Its probably not even possible, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Also, I love the new beta version your working on, I love the idea of being able to have the little presence mini window there with the toggle rod. A huuuuge time-saver, since I'm so lazy . Keep up the great work!

Thank you soooooooo much for this wonderful diplo ui mod, it has made diplo that much more enjoyable for me

The library is effectively one big list of all your cards, you can't remove some of them, sorry.

The little presence window is actually finished, though the parley window will take some time to complete. I guess I should probably release a new version with the presence window in it, and the parley window can follow later.

MiniCards v1.1

I've released a new version which now includes the miniature presence window. Also some very minor improvements to the button graphics.

Enjoy.

I cant get this to show up. Im pretty sure i follwed the install directions, would a modded abilites window present in DroxUI cause a problem?

it shouldnt cause a problem as the diplo window is from a different file than the abilites window.

MiniCards v1.2

As mentioned in the patch notes, there's a new version of MiniCards for the deck management commands added in today's patch. Woohoo!

Changes:

• Added two banks of buttons to the strategy window to load and save 10 different decks of cards. These are colour coded to prevent over-writing saved decks by accident.

• Buttons added to the strategy window to open/close the banks of load/save buttons. Added a button to clear all cards from the current deck.

• Added a modified parley window, with the same miniature cards and a more compact design. Also displays the full names of the player and the NPC opponent. The speak and listen buttons have been removed since they are directly available on the strategy window.

Downloads & Installation:

MiniCards is included in CoreUI3 and CustomUI, however these will not contain the new version just yet, and since there are some new files as well, a little editing of the index files will be required.

I've also created a version of InfoMap for stand-alone use which contains the MiniCards mod as well. This will give all other UI windows as per the default UI.
(There's an interface page on VGinterface, but it hasn't appeared yet as I only just uploaded it.)

Or MiniCards for self-installation is here:

does the DMCSavedDecks.xml need to go into the idex.xml file also?
or does it just need to be in the Windows folder.

Nope, no need to be added to index.xml... just make sure it is in the same folder as the rest of the DMC files.
