draw from 120 Random cards, PC windows, just put your own card artwork in.

I had a program to draw a random card from a total of 120, you have to provide your own artwork for the cards, its a blank template, runs on windows PC and is free.

I don't know why I made it 120 cards , I think I was doing upfront card game, but It may be of use if you want a random card from a deck, or you can draw 3 cards at once

IVE UPDATED THE FILE TO V12.0 NOW HAS MOUSE CONTROL, AND NOW has a help section for a reminder of what you want the symbols to mean in your game

you should be able to increase the width of the mask file, to get wider cards

Have you tried creating cards in the Battlegrounds RPG engine yet?

No, I watched a video though, you have all your cards in the same folder , then select the back image and create deck, I think that was for BGE. I'm not in full flow yet, I like to learn before I get stuck in. but your right it may be better to use BG I did really think about it properly

Ive updated the top post file with a new version, all your older decks will be unchanged

in the base folder you will find a file named signs.png, you can edit this file, it shows up on screen, so you can give your self a bit of help by putting descriptions to symbols and signs that appear on the cards, you will probably change the use of the sysmbols and signs in differrent decks or game types, eg a flag may mean surrender in an war game, but may mean setsail in a cruise ship game
