If you are using an older version with Google Sheets you may run into issues.\n\nYou can get the latest information related to the changes here: https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/issues/123\n\n# CardMaker\n\nCardMaker is an application that generates graphics via data sources. It has a graphical user interface for designing layouts and offers scripting functionality.\n\nThis application was created to help me generate components for a board game. You can put all of your variable data into a CSV or Google Spreadsheet and then create layouts in CardMaker. This separates your layout and data so you do not have to manually re-create each card. \n\nCommand line based export support is in development (coming soon!). Soon you will be able to build CardMaker into a workflow!\n\n## Download\n\nLatest stable (I hope) release binary: [Latest Release](https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/releases/latest)\n\nLatest releases (may be a bit unstable): [Download Releases](https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/releases)\n\n[Download The Game Crafter templates for CardMaker](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/nhmkdev/cardmaker/CardMaker_TGC_Templates.zip)\n\n## Guides / Help\n\n* [CardMaker User Guides Section](https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/wiki/user)\n* [BoardGameGeek CardMaker Guild](https://www.boardgamegeek.com/guild/2250) - Good place for bugs/request/discussions\n\n## Sample\n\n![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/nhmkdev/cardmaker/readme_sample.png)\n\nThe above image was generated by the following input data row from a CSV:\n\n| Count | Name | image | skill1 | skill1value | skill2 | skill2value | ability |\n| --- | --- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- |\n| 1 | Siani Malia | che.png | T |  3 | B | 4 | Ranged Battle: +1 on all die Rolls @[opt] | \n\nWhile there is some interpretation of the data by CardMaker to generate the final result, many of the values are direct references. The layout configuration in CardMaker controls the details of how to actually present the data.\n\n[Further Details on how the Elements for this Layout are configured](https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/wiki/user-readme-sample)\n\n## Code Status\n\nCompiles with Visual Studio Community Edition 2019\n\nSee more details in the [Developers Section](https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/wiki/developers)\n\n[TODO / Wishlist](https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/wiki/developers-todo)\n\nToxicity Level: Medium-High\n * Needs more comments\n * Needs warning cleanup\n * Needs some shuffling to allow for more narrow and focused unit testing\n * Needs more unit tests!\n * Every method should be implemented based on an interface and classes should implement hundreds of interfaces (just kidding!!!)\n\n## The Google Issue\n\nIf you plan to outright copy the parts of the code that operate with Google Spreadsheets please be aware that the source\ncurrently uses the client id that is associated with my CardMaker application. [Code File](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/master/CardMaker/Card/Import/GoogleReferenceReader.cs)\n\nYou will need to modify this code to correctly use your application.\n\n## Games Developed with CardMaker\n\nCardMaker played some role in the development of these games (prototyping or otherwise). Let me know if you have a game that should be listed here.\n\n| Game Link(s) |\n| --- |\n| [Cardpocalypse](http://cardpocalyp.se/) \u0026 [Cardpocalypse Steam Link](https://store.steampowered.com/app/904400/Cardpocalypse/) |\n| [Cave Paintings](http://rnrgames.com/cave-paintings) |\n| [COBRA](https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/cobra1) |\n| [Context Switch](https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/context-switch) |\n| [Executive Shuffle](https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/executive-shuffle) |\n| [Fairness](https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/fairness) |\n| [Full Sun](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/359956/full-sun) |\n| [Hard Stop](https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/hard-stop) |\n| [Iliad: Heroes of Troy](http://www.escapevelocitygames.com/iliad/)\u003cbr/\u003e |\n| [NEVO](https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/nevo) |\n| [Root Cause Analysis Team](https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/root-cause-analysis-team) |\n| [Town Builder: Coevorden](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/255633/town-builder-coevorden) \u0026 [(Publisher page)](http://www.firstfishgames.com/our-games/town-builder-coevorden/) |\n\n## History\n\n2009 - First created and publicly released CardMaker\n\n20XX - Lots of bug fixes and features\n\n2015 - CardMaker goes open source\n\n2017 - CardMaker is finally marked as 1.0.0.0 for no specific reason.\n\n### The Name\n\n\"CardMaker\" and \"Card Maker\" are both references to the same application. I just never standardized the name.\n\n## Special Thanks\n\n* Eric Raué\n* Mark Vabulas\n* Kolja Geldmacher\n* Everyone that has contributed to the project through emailing bugs and requesting features\n\n## Original Author\n\nCardMaker was originally created in 2009 by Tim Stair.\n\n## Disclaimer\n\nI am providing code in the repository to you under an open source license.
