[QUOTE="Alphastream, post: 5604427, member: 11365"] I'm not particularly knowledgeable in the underpinnings, so I can't share much on the deep technical side. As a user, you want to install MSE and then a template you like. Some people like to install MSE once for each template, having the executable into that subfolder. I use this technique, as it keeps things clean. Fire up the MSE executable that you have for that template folder, then open any of the template .mse-set files. I like [URL="http://www.creativegremlins.com/marketplace/product-list.php?pg1-cid4.html"]Tintagel's core set here[/URL]. Once open you can create a card very easily, typing in the power. Making a low level PC is a fast affair once you have done it a few times. As you level you usually just need a new card at a time, which isn't a big deal time-wise. You can make some simple changes by looking inside the data directory and opening the files you find in the Game or various Style directories. It takes a bit of practice, but you can do things like change the background image (I like having an image of my PC in the background) or adjust how things are arranged. Make a copy and work slowly. You could try PMing some of the guys that made sets and see if they can offer more help. Also, the site where you get MSE has forums. They are mainly focused on Magic, but they do discuss general templating. [/QUOTE]
