Custom card deck builder for Marvel Champions: TCG
Project description
MCdeck
MCdeck is a custom card deck builder app for Marvel Champions: The Card Game (MC). Decks are constructed by adding card images, and possibly card metadata. Decks can then be exported to the supported export formats.
Cards can currently be exported to PDF documents intended for printing custom card decks, either for two-sided printing or "fold & glue" printing.
MCdeck uses functionality from lcgtools for PDF exports. Lcgtools is an alternative command line based tool for generating PDFs, made by the same author.
Note that this tool is entirely fan made, and is in no way associated with or endorsed by owners of MC intellectual property. It is intended entirely for using with custom user generated content.
We recommended Hall of Heroes as a resource for information regarding custom user generated content and related communities.
License
MCdeck is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. License details are included with the source code.
Alpha software
The package is an alpha release and is still in development. Though we strive to make each release functional, some things may not work as expected. As the tools are in development, tool usage and APIs may undergo changes between releases.
Installing
The library with source code can be installed from PyPI. Dependencies include:
-
lcgtools for PDF generation
-
PySide6 Qt bindings for python (see the reference for more info)
-
setuptools for building from source
The app has been tested to work on OSX, Linux, and Windows (tested with python from Microsoft Store and Anaconda). Unfortunately, it does not (currently) work with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) due to lack of PySide6 support.
MCdeck can be installed from PyPI with the command
pip install MCdeck # Alternatively python3 -m pip install MCdeck
To install MCdeck from source, run this command from the top directory
(which includes the pyproject.toml
file),
pip install . # alternatively "python -m pip install ."
You may wish to install MCdeck with virtualenv in order to separate the install from your general python environment.
