New Game Card Templates (Updated 12/06)

If anyone is interested, I've created some new card templates for the game.

Edit 06/12: I've now created a new set of mana symbols to go with the templates.

Here's some pics taken from the game to show the difference.

Just drop the MANASYMBOLS.bmp and the 14 CARDBK_*.bmp files in the archive into the games 'CardArt' folder, and you're good to go.
Don't forget to backup the originals, just in case these new files don't work for you.

Any feedback appreciated. :wink:

I like it, but it seems that there is a slim white line on the left and the right side of the card art images with these templates.

That's strange. :?

They're made to the same dimensions as the originals, and I checked them at various resolutions and never came across that problem. Although, the best results were with a screen resolution of 1280x1024.

Could you post/send a pic to give me some idea what happening on your set up?

Edit: Don't bother with the pic.
I've now changed the inner white background to black.
It's made no difference to way the card art displays on my setup, but it may remove the thin white lines on yours.

I've updated the link above with the new files.

Hm... Sonic, what kind of changes have you done? Red template looks just more blurred, while artifact one looks "sharper"

Not sure what your referring to - viewed from within the game, or from the pics above.

Bear in mind, the pics above are jpgs. The original bmp files look a lot sharper when seen in the game.
