Savage Worlds Initiative and the Card Deck

Seems I ran across a post nearly 3 months ago that this action does not currently work with Roll20. Yet I saw a Youtube (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKGlqLF096g" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKGlqLF096g</a>) video from March showing it work. I follow the instructions and cannot make it work. So what am I doing wrong if anything?
i just checked and it does work. but i just drew some cards from the standard deck. did you try to do something especific?
I did the same thing, just drew cards from the default deck. Made sure all tokens were attached to a sheet, made sure they were added to the initiative tracker, clicked on the card deck edge, card flips over, drag it to the initiative tracker, let go, drops to the VTT. No idea what I am doing wrong.
It's a bit tricky and I'm hit or miss with the functionality. &nbsp;What I have noticed is that you have to drag the card directly from the draw pile to the Initiative tracker AND when you drop the card, make sure your mouse cursor is over where the number would be in the initiative tracker. &nbsp;It seems if my cursor isn't right over that number (or pretty dang close to it), the card drops below the Initiative Tracker. Personally, I think I'm just gonna have the players draw their own cards, that way I don't have to worry about edges and the deal can move faster. &nbsp;Then we'll just do the count down and may be manually move the initiative tracker order if we feel it is necessary. Hope this helps.

If the&nbsp;initiative&nbsp;tracker number highlights yellow you are in the right place. Otherwise, yes, it will drop onto the table.&nbsp; - Gauss
Thank you guys for the help and the speed in which you did it, Kudo's to all. I was able to make the card based initiative work. Thanks you again. I went on to make a bennie deck from the generic 4 token set.
If you are familiar with the Adventure Deck, you can create that too. &nbsp;And pardon the pimping of my own site a little, but if you use the Adventure Deck you can also create custom cards here: &nbsp; <a href="http://www.geeksville.us/swcard.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.geeksville.us/swcard.php</a> Or, you can see cards others have made here: &nbsp; <a href="http://www.geeksville.us/advcards.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.geeksville.us/advcards.php</a>
