Sorry for the error. Lord Tirian made a corrective version on the UCS development forum. You can download it here : Ander00-UCS3.rar
I'm suprised by this error. What version of UCS and what version of the template do you have ?
I'm using the latest downloads from the website. Beta3 for cards and the templates for Beta3.
I do have one other question...the cards for Ander's do not show the nifty boxes on the side for all the to hit, damage, etc... What happened to those? I just grabbed the corrective version so now I can use them again.
Hi everyone I'm back again with some new stuff. The Manual of the Planes to exact. I think I went a bit crazy; you see at first I just did the Paragon Paths and Items but then I thought, 'Hey I may as well go through the whole book' so the result also has all the monsters, hazards, summaries of the planes and so on.
Just wanted to update everyone here on ENWorld about the UCS project. Currently, we're on Beta 3.1 of the project.
We have 5 designers who all have at least 1 template on this version with a few more expressing interest.
We've caught up and surpassed most card set's out there in that we've entered in the PHB, DMG, MM, FRPG, FRCG, AV, MP, MotP, Dragonomicon, Dragons #364-371, some of the Dungeons, most of the modules, and even some work here at ENWorld.
Our next two steps are the creation of Monster cards and we expect those within the next few weeks, and the creation of a DnDI Character Builder card creator that allows you to take the saved character file of the Character Builder and turn it into a series of customized (and filled out) Power Cards in whatever set is your favorite.
Drop on by over at toosigma (link is in my sig) if you're interested. We'd love to hear your opinions and / or advice.

The UCS Complete Set was just updated - now with 5116 (!) cards (though there are a couple duplicates).
If you'd rather deal with a smaller set - you can download all the cards from a single source at the Card Editors page. We're also working on getting content based sets built (Magic Items, Class-based, Races, Traps, Rituals, etc.)
All of the current templates have been fixed - the correct download links are on the Downloads Page
@Surina - The nifty boxes on the side are hidden by default. You can create them by choosing the template, returning to the Cards view, and then clicking on one of the dotted outline boxes on the side - type in some text for whatever you want the box to contain, and voila! the box appears. This "feature" is available on several (all?) of the other templates as well.
@Bayeur - I've just done a wipe/reinstall of the whole MSE/UCS stack. With MSE 0.3.8 and the latest links from the Downloads page, everything is working as advertised. If it still doesn't work - you might try deleting the template folders from your MSE data directory so you don't have any legacy files from older editions causing problems.
@catsclaw227 - the reason we don't have a "Race/Class Level" field is that it's actually separate bits of data. It would be ideal if MSE had multi-column sorting, but I agree that being able to sort by both values (instead of just either/or - as is currently availabe) could be useful. We'll see if we can work it in - in the meantime, you can always create a custom set by deleting all the powers you don't want (say, everything but the Ranger powers) and then sort the resulting set by a variety of criteria.
@anyone - if you have access to decent hosting, anyone is more than welcome to create some PDF versions of whatever UCS content they want. We realize not everyone wants to deal with installing a new program, and PDF versions are a great way to get more cards into more people's hands.

I'm still making PDFs but ran in to a memory issue. (I run out with a full swap file but can't change the swap file due to the file system. I'll be correcting over the weekend.)

I'm trying to figure out exactly which files to download to make them show up in my MSE program.... I got some of the older ones working, but the new ones keep saying they're missing a file. The Ander00 versions are my favorite... which files do I need to download to get them to all appear?
Thanks
Chris

Hirahito, I had one request...your cards are AMAZING, but can you add boxes for Damage and Stat vs. Stat?
Thanks again so much!!!
Thanks for the support!
First, let me open by saying, since I've been doing a lot of UCS work, this template is nothing but a Beta. Yes, there are quite a few things missing on it.
I've been playing with it some and have both cleaned up the look as well as thrown back in the optional boxes on the cards again with the Beta 3.2 release which should be coming out in the next few days.
This release will allow you to enter in text in the boxes, but it will NOT have any of that data there to begin with.
However, when Beta 3.3 gets released, I'm hoping to have the DnDI Character Editor convertor program working. This little beasty is something I've been cooking up in the back labs - it will take a character saved in the DnDI Character Editor and make a new MSE set for you that includes all of the cards applicable to your character in the style you choose.
Unfortunately, the Beta 3.3 still won't fill those boxes in on the first pass. That'll take a bit more work on my part - I'm hoping to have that ability in the near future.
Suffice it to say that I'm working towards cards that are auto filled in based on your character. (Because I'm inherently lazy and I hate it when I miss a rule that could have given me an extra +1 to hit or a +3 to damage)

For some reason, I still can't get it to work. What folders do I put everything in? I've been putting things in the data folder, but when I go to use the set file, it gives me an error...
Thanks
Chris (I really did get the original ander00 ones working)

Okay, somehow I managed to get it to work... (not sure how), however, some of the cards give me errors, and it won't let me save it without the program crashing...

When I unzip it I get one file "set" If I change it to "set.mse-set" I get an error. File not found: 'set' in package...
Is that Zip file ok?
ok if found the problem.
Quote:
IIRC, the answer was buried in this thread somewhere. IE has a problem with the file and renames it to *.zip rather than *.mse-set. If you just rename the file *.mse-set, it should work fine.
Maybe you guys should put that on the download page. So people know to rename the file right of the bat and not have a problem.

Reason: fixed problem
Well to let everyone know that the UCS templates and files are now working find after installing the updates. The cards look good and Dennis yours is impressive but I think it will waste a lot of ink and gamers are not rich for printing at home at a printshop.
Hirahito, I had one request...your cards are AMAZING, but can you add boxes for Damage and Stat vs. Stat?

Dreamwisp -
As promised, here's the first step towards my cards having what you asked for.
I've implemented side bars. Only 5 on this set, and right now there's only 1 look.
-- Hirahito
BTW - For those card designers that are interested, I finally figured out how to make conditional masking work on a field in MSE. The example is in my card set (on the toosigma site).

The new preview of the 'Shaman' class is at WotC and there is a new attack form -- Melee spirit 1.
So here is an icon to go with it. How you like it.
@Hirahito
Feel free to grab and go... for the UCS.
Misalo -
Need some work on an icon. I wanted to tweak the look of Beast Burst. I think the symbol you have in the center of your version is too small. Unfortunately, the version I came up with is pretty hideous.
If you could work out some sort of median between the two, I would be much obliged...
Here's what I came up with (I'm not responsible if you laugh so hard you injure yourself).
-- Hirahito
ALSO - I noticed your ritual icon and it got me thinking. The UCS has a bunch of card types that have no icons (like rituals). In fact, there are: Info, Ritual, Initiative, Trap, Class Info (or just Class), Disease/Poison and Social cards.
Ritual can be the book, if you get a wild hair and think up icons for any or all of the other ones, we'd be very much appreciative.
