Magic Set Editor
Posted: 17 Jun 2016, 20:40
At my Local Gaming Shop we were talking about doing a Beta sealed deck league. I figured the easiest way to do so would be to recreate all the cards in Magic Set Editor. I ended up making Beta/Arabian/Antiquies and was half way through legends before I had computer problems and lost all of the files. Though somehow I still have a pdf of ABU. In the past this is how I've made proxies for my cube. I liked doing this project so I'm starting over now.
MSE has some advantages (and disadvantages) over some other methods.
*It is easy to print new packs
*When making the sets it's easy to have the current oracle wording on the cards.
*Consistant borders between sets.
Disadvantages
*You have to indivdually add the cards, making the entire process time intensive.
Does anyone want this? Would this be kosher to post on this site? If I were to remake the earlier sets on here would other people want them? Would anybody be willing to recreate a set. Be it anything from Arabian Nights to Eternal Masters. It's pretty easy and I could recreate the set symbols easy enough for people who don't feel comfortable with the vector part of the project.
Edit* Looking around I found out how MSE stores its set information. It's pretty much just a notepad file inside a zip file. If I could make a program that would take a set spoiler and changed the format to match MSE format all I would have to do is manually imput the picture files and check everything for correct formating. I just have no idea how to do that.
