Did you check the "Content Downloaders" in "Game Settings" ?

What is "Content Downloaders" in "Game Settings", where is it?
I can only show you a screenshot of the mobile version, but there are buttons in desktop Forge "Game Settings" to download all pictures as well.

Why do you need .exe or .zip so bad?

I don't have all the cards reprinted, it takes time to do. I'm uploading two cards a day at the current pace.

In the exe? I really don't think that it will be done since it would make the download more than 1 GB instead of around 100 MB.

In a zip? Here are some links :

- https://mega.nz/#F!p8RBBT6Y!ksgSGJbMsKU0HX_ho-QS5g
(there are probabably other links if you want to get all the remaining cards, just browse the forum if you need them)

And here are the screenshots on the PC version. Just choose between High quality and Low quality pictures.

There is also an option in the settings to download missing cards automatically (usually tokens missed by the "Content downloader").

A card database/editor similar to MWS, I think(?), with which you can actually play Magic with, in multiple formats/playstyles (draft, constructed, commander, etc), vs (several) Ai(s) or even human players (which is a very short overview of what Forge is capable of). Did I mention it's free and open source?
Here's a more detailed description:
https://www.slightlymagic.net/wiki/Forge

You can download each latest version in the Forge forum thread on slightlymagic:
https://www.slightlymagic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=29077
There are versions for other system architectures as well, even Android(!)

In Forge > Game Settings > Content Downloaders you can download individual card pics in either Low Quality (which is what MWS uses, it seems) and High Quality, which will take several hours though(!)

THAT would have been very useful to know from the beginning... #-o

Anyway, if you're stuck with MWS, I can't really help you there.. it seems not to be updated that regularly anymore, in favor of its successor maybe.

All these picture.exe-files from mwsgames do is copying LQ pics to individually named set folders in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Magic Workstation\Pics
for example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Magic Workstation\Pics\XLN

If you follow these guidelines:
http://mwsgames.com/mws-install-guide.htm#Pictures
you can get the latest pictues from the links I pointed to in your previous post and rename them yourself.

Anyway, if you look for answers to Magic Workstation, it'd be better to ask in the right forum:
https://www.slightlymagic.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=28
Mostly because of the way picture import is handled in MWS is very MWS specific..
