Posted: Sun Jun 12, 2011 9:03 pm
As you may (or may not) have seen on the site, you can download some files required by MWS to intialize it's database with the correct cards.
In this topic, I'll explain for those who don't know what are the provided files and how to use them and for the others, they will be able to find here direct links to get the files.
1- The install dir: all the files you'll download have to be copied into some folders of the install dir. This directory is in most cases C:\Program Files\Magic Workstation or C:\Program Files (x86)\Magic Workstation
2- Sets.dat: this file contains information on all the sets loaded into Magic Workstation, this is basically a link between a Set Name (Heroes of Azeroth) and it's set code (HOA).
It should be copied in the Data folder of the install dir.
You can download it here
3- Databases: These files are the list of all cards that can be used to create decks. These files only contains card names and basic information but not all details/pictures associated with the card.
The file could be anywhere on your disk, you will have to pick it as default masterbase from the file menu.

4- Sets: These files contain all details for cards withing a given set. These set files are linked with the masterbase to provide a complete and detailed list of all the cards.
