CCGHQ MTG XLHQ Pics for use in Forge

[Wurm]

Hi people,

Seeing as I had quite some trouble making all the pics work in the Forge structure I decided to make a torrent based on the main XLHQ one. The import function did most of the work but quite a number of cards were left behind (including splits and doubles). After some manual moving and renaming I think I got all cards displaying properly. I used the available LQ pics as a base for the structure.

I also cut the rounded borders of the XHLQs so they are nicer to play with. The size went from 745x1040 to 705x1000. A number of sets in the LQs had to be left behind. They are:

VMA (Vintage Masters) and TPR (Tempest Remastered) -> Online only sets, no scans
VAN (Vanguard) -> A lot of these were never printed
MBP (Promo set) -> There's still no collection of all promos, so for now they're missing
S2K -> No idea what this is, some cards had the VI symbol.
BFZ (Battle for Zendikar) -> No scans for this yet

All the rest should have XLHQ pics. If you found any lemon or something missing let me know.

You should place the torrent in "\Users\[Name]\AppData\Local\Forge\Cache\pics". It already has the "cards" folder. Don't tick the "create subfolder" in your client when adding the torrent, else you'll have a "CCGHQ MTG XLHQ Pics" folder in the middle.

Hope this is useful to someone. Doesn't it look great?

S2K -> No idea what this is, some cards had the VI symbol.

I believe this is the Starter 2000 set. "VI" is for 6th edition which had prints just shoved into the starter packs, this was an odd "set" you can read about it here. http://mtgsalvation.gamepedia.com/Starter_2000

I think the set code used these days is S00.

Thanks Wurm!! Been looking to upgrade the newest sets to HQ.

Thanks a lot!
Though could somebody seed this? I have been downloading the torrent for quite a while and no seeder has showed up.
I'm affraid it won't finish downloading.

I'd like to second the request for a seed. The torrent has stalled in my client.

I third this notion, really slow to download, currently at 52% but been downloading since yesterday morning so.....

[reeeech]

Has anyone finished this?

I'm at 83% and it has stopped as well.

Would like to find out how did you "batch trim" the sides of XLHQ sides to become the torrent pictures you uploaded previously. Also, how did you "batch change" the names from eg. Blaze.xlhq.jpg to Blaze.full.jpg so that Forge can read them.

Many thanks in advance!

Personally I use IrfanView to do both at the same time. But you have to do each set by set. It's not a problem when adding one or two, but I wouldn't want to take the time if I had to do them all.
