Clefaria's Magic Workstation bundle

I've completely reorganized my little 'one-stop' method of distributing everything one needs to play Magic via MWS. No need for me to be constantly seeding everything; it's all available on Mediafire now.

I tried to make it as fool-proof as possible, whether you want to get updated coming off of my Zendikar torrent, or being completely new to Magic Workstation altogether.

Info's in my signature, which will be updated, as will this thread, as Worldwake updates leak in from around.

So far, I've manually updated my token list to include the token types Worldwake introduced, and added the Gatherer scans. Waiting on the HQ scans, of course, but even more important than that are the masterbase/sets.dat files.

P.S. A lot of the card scans I've got up are available elsewhere, but I really want one to be able to get EVERYTHING one needs from one source. I set things up so that it should be painless to keep up to date, and I won't have to upload anything more than once. :P

Reuploaded DIS.rar to Card Scans section, replacing a corrupted crop with a manual crop from the full card's scan. Subject to another reupload if the crops are obtained in a more 'official' way than just pulling a 417x305 rectangle out of the full-size scan.

Partially because of 200-character limit on signatures (that bbcode adds up), and partially because I love feeds, I changed the updates section in my signature to simply a link to an RSS feed of all new uploads. When something gets updated, you'll know right away and can update your copy. Extremely convenient, imo. :)

Recent updates

Both are Worldwake-ready, and gotten from here.

Updated TK.rar in Card Scans folder with LQ Worldwake scans. Also arranged files so that Worldwake tokens always take priority (for when there are multiple tokens with the same name and power) on the table.

A bit more information's been added to the Base readme.

Token scans moved out of 'other' and put into the root of the card scans folder.

Updated TK.rar (tokens), rearranging to make 4/4 tokens use the scan of the 4/4 token in the group (mostly for Sarkhan Vol), and added a scan of the 1/1 with flying/devour token that Dragon Broodmother uses. Should come up correctly when 1/1 Dragon is chosen in MWS. :)

Fixed some idiotic mistakes in token list.txt.

Replaced LQ Worldwake 'scans' (which I had forgotten to mention contained fulls and no crops, but doesn't matter now) with the HQ scans just released.

Also, just noticed dumb stuff in my tokens .rar, fixing that now.

Fixed up tokens .rar. Worldwake tokens still LQ for now, unfortunately.

Tokens updated with HQ Worldwake scans, and optimized for 'summoning' in Magic Workstation, especially for those like me who primarily play Standard.

Basically, what I do is set up the scans in the folder in such a way that when you summon a token with the same creature type and power (those are the two things MWS looks at when deciding which .jpg to use for the token) as one of the ones in Worldwake, it will use the Worldwake scan, as opposed to an older scan.

For example, there has been more than one 5/x Dragon token, but I think most players would prefer to see Worldwake's 5/5 Dragon token when they summon a token today, rather than 10th Edition's 5/5 Dragon token. So I set it up so that that's what you will see.

After all, what's the point of updating your tokens if you don't get to see the new ones?

Hope that made sense. :P

lol, finding more miscellaneous 'mistakes' and unoptimized things in my token folder. Going through it again, will probably update it once more, soon.

EDIT: Going to rework my tokens folder completely, will take longer than originally thought.

Phew, biiiiig overhaul to the tokens is finished, should be really easy to update for future sets this way, too. Lots of renaming, deleting duplicates, fixing stuff up, should be perfect now.
