How to install tokens
by kilosi » 26 Sep 2016, 21:12
Hello,
I have been able to figure out how to install images. Next up, is how I can install the token images.
For example, I have the EMA tokens and want to put them in the Forge\Cache\pics\tokens.
the names here are like "w_1_1_spirit.jpg". The tokens I got for EMN are named "Elemental1.full.jpg".
So I assume, I need to transform "Elemental1.full.jpg" to the proper format like the spirit tokens. I suppose if there was a way for Forge to tell me what file name it is expecting for each token, that'd be great. However, I am not sure where to get this information at.
Thanks!

You have to rename them. Go to /res/cardsfolder.zip and look up a card that has the token and see what the filename is.

So you can look in the cards, like Oath of Gideon for example and see "TokenImage$ w 1 1 kor ally". This gives the name.
Most excellent!

That's it. Don't forget to put underscores instead of spaces in the filenames.
Since there are many tokens, hopefully you are only doing this for the new set.

Yep, I am really only doing it for the decks I play. If I could write a program to convert them all I would probably consider doing that (like I did for the images. It can read the zip files and then unzips, looks at each file and renames it accordingly).
Thanks again for the help.

Note that I try to maintain an archive of HQ tokens here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/h2t5w ... ns_EMN.zip
It's updated when the HQ pictures for new sets come out.
