Zendikar Basic Lands

I like the Zendikar basic lands and wanted to use them in Forge. For those of you who might be interested as well, I thought I'd save you some effort and provide the steps.
First, remove all four copies of Forest, Island, Mountain, Plains, and Swamp images (e.g., forest.jpg, forest1.jpg, forest2.jpg, and forest3.jpg) in the res/pics folder.
If using HQ pictures, replace the basic land definition lines in card-pictures-others.txt file (in the res/pic_links folder, first 20 lines in my copy of the file) with these lines:

Code: Select all: forest.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Forest4.full.jpg forest1.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Forest1.full.jpg forest2.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Forest2.full.jpg forest3.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Forest3.full.jpg island.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Island4.full.jpg island1.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Island1.full.jpg island2.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Island2.full.jpg island3.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Island3.full.jpg mountain.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Mountain4.full.jpg mountain1.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Mountain1.full.jpg mountain2.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Mountain2.full.jpg mountain3.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Mountain3.full.jpg plains.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Plains4.full.jpg plains1.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Plains1.full.jpg plains2.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Plains2.full.jpg plains3.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Plains3.full.jpg swamp.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Swamp4.full.jpg swamp1.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Swamp1.full.jpg swamp2.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Swamp2.full.jpg swamp3.jpg http://[server]/ZEN/Swamp3.full.jpg

If using LQ images, replace the basic land lines in card-pictures.txt (in the res folder, again the first 20 lines in my copy of the file) with:

Code: Select all: mountain.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0242_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg mountain1.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0243_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg mountain2.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0244_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg mountain3.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0245_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg swamp.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0238_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg swamp1.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0239_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg swamp2.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0240_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg swamp3.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0241_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg plains.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0230_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg plains1.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0231_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg plains2.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0232_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg plains3.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0233_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg island.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0234_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg island1.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0235_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg island2.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0236_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg island3.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0237_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg forest.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0246_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg forest1.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0247_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg forest2.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0248_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg forest3.jpg http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tcg/products/zendikar/h1bs2y5wfz/EN/0249_MTGZEN_EN_LR.jpg

Then launch Forge and download the images.

In the past I went to the magic card market web site and set the filter to display lands:

http://www.magickartenmarkt.de/?mainPage=browseCategory&idCategory=1&idExpansion=&rarity=L&onlyAvailable=

From here you can hover your mouse pointer over the small icon on the left side of the card name/type and you will get a pop up pic of the card. This can allow people to see the land arts for different sets.

Find a set that you like and you can modify the card-picture files just like AC. Use the land arts that you like best.
