Mtgjson developer confirmed they dropped the field. He explained me how ImageName was calculated so now I am re-implementing the same calculation in Mtgdb.Gui. The algorythm itself is easy, the difficulty is that there are exceptions to it, which are plenty. Correcting them all will take some time. The good thing is that we do have time, because you pointed me to v4 early.

Hi, fantastic app, thank you so much for your hard work.
Today just got the new update and few new sets where added but there seems to be a problem with (MPS) set.
.....
Failed to download C:\Users\xxx\Downloads\Mtgdb.Gui.v3.7.2.4\images\Mtgdb.Pictures\LQ\MPS.7z from drive google com / uc?export= download& id=1YF613NQDLr7VvHHwE2G5I09DaubJ9fQj
Looking up downloaded images...
Art: 0/1 directories, 0/7947 files
LQ: 226/227 directories, 35531/35585 files
MQ: 226/227 directories, 35531/35585 files
(can't post urls by the way, that's why the drive google link is all over the place, sorry)
It seems that it is trying to download the same set of MPS_AKH instead of just MPS.
Thanks again for your work and the next update.

Hey man!
Firstly thank you for your work.
Im having some troubles importing collection from mtg arena. I installed it on other D:/ device, and when i click import collection it tells me "mtg arena installation was not detected" and indicates me to change the config file.
I already did it but problem still appears, also i found what i think is a mistake on the file bin/Mtgdb.Gui.exe.config where instead of etc\ it is placed Etc\ with that E on uppers ( not sure if on windows the caps matters on paths ).
Anyway y tried all, re-unziped the program on other folder ( not on desktop nor root ), changing the config and the default config but I didnt found any solution.
Could you help me?
Thank you very much

You are welcome!
I need 2 things to figure out what went wrong
1. Send me (attach to reply) a .zip file with \etc directory so I can see how did you modify the config.
2. I need to know the full path where you have Mtg Arena installed.
P.S. did you restart Mtgdb.Gui after changing the config?
Captialization does not matter in Windows so Etc and etc are the same thing.Im having some troubles importing collection from mtg arena

Can't thank you enough for your amazing app, makes the process of searching for specifics cards so much more easier.
I am not sure if I am missing some tooltip info but I can't seem to figure out how to quickly reset filters inserted as text in the search bar as we can do with the others buttons using that fantastic middle mouse click shortcut.
I think it would be cool if we could do a middle mouse click in the bar or click at the a magnifying glass, and remove all text/filter in one go instead of having to select/triple click on it and press a backspace key.
Just a thought.
Thanks again in any case.

Hi Qumojo, you are welcome.
I think it's a good idea to add a possibility to clear the search bar using mouse only, including middle mouse click shortcut, for consistency with other filters. The same applies to legality filter, which misses fast clearing functionality.
Finally I would add another single button to reset absolutely all filters.
I am missing the possibility to quickly reset all filters too.
UPDATE: done in 3.8.0.0

Hi, how to re edit the ect file as if i change the directory path like old rule like this
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ" Zoom="Any" >
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\Zoom" Zoom="Any" >
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\No Zoom" >
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\software for magic the gathering\Mtgdb.Gui\images\Artworks\Artists" Art="True" ReadMetadataFromAttributes="False" />

Hi Aidscoi! The configs should work as before without any changes from your side.
Send me a .zip with logs, I believe the log specifies the failed position within config file.
If it so happens I cannot figure it out by logs only, then I will ask you to send me a .zip with etc files.
Sorry for breaking the app.
P.S.
you should close directory tags to keep XML correct:
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ" Zoom="Any" />
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\Zoom" Zoom="Any" />
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\No Zoom" />
<Directory Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\software for magic the gathering\Mtgdb.Gui\images\Artworks\Artists" Art="True" ReadMetadataFromAttributes="False" />

Hi, as the new version messing with my bitdefender so i accidently replace the old ect config files with the new one. It's ok to try setting with new path as the set from new json file changed, you just need to tell me how to edit the path to get the right config
example
<Root Name="XLHQ" Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ\XLHQ Mega" Exclude="100DPI;100 DPI;200DPI;200 DPI;Crops" />
<Root Name="Promo" Path=" this one i think i have to reposition as changed before " />
<Root Name="PTour" Path=" like above " />
<Root Name="Torrent" Path=" like above " />
<!--
<Directory Group="xlhq" Zoom="Any" Root="XLHQ" Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ\XLHQ Mega" /> don't know if setting like this ok or not
<Directory Group="xlhq" Zoom="Any" Set="dvd" Root="XLHQ" Path="DDA - Duel Decks%3a Anthology\DVD-EN Cards 300DPI" /> change in v4 i think
<Directory Group="xlhq" Zoom="Any" Set="evg" Root="XLHQ" Path="DDA - Duel Decks%3a Anthology\EVG-EN Cards 300DPI" />
example
<Root Name="XLHQ" Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ\XLHQ Mega" Exclude="100DPI;100 DPI;200DPI;200 DPI;Crops" />
<Root Name="Promo" Path=" this one i think i have to reposition as changed before " />
<Root Name="PTour" Path=" like above " />
<Root Name="Torrent" Path=" like above " />
<!--
<Directory Group="xlhq" Zoom="Any" Root="XLHQ" Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ\XLHQ Mega" /> don't know if setting like this ok or not
<Directory Group="xlhq" Zoom="Any" Set="dvd" Root="XLHQ" Path="DDA - Duel Decks%3a Anthology\DVD-EN Cards 300DPI" /> change in v4 i think
<Directory Group="xlhq" Zoom="Any" Set="evg" Root="XLHQ" Path="DDA - Duel Decks%3a Anthology\EVG-EN Cards 300DPI" />

You can use @Root attribute to set base directory and @exclude (optionally) in one <Root /> tag for many <Directory /> tags:... Root="XLHQ" ...
don't know if setting like this ok or not
- Code: Select all
<ImageLocations>
<Root Name="XLHQ" Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ\XLHQ Mega" Exclude="100DPI;100 DPI;200DPI;200 DPI;Crops" />
<!-- path is empty because there is nothing to add to Path from Root tag -->
<Directory Group="xlhq" Zoom="Any" Root="XLHQ" Path="" />
<Directory Zoom="Any" Set="dvd" Root="XLHQ" Path="DDA - Duel Decks%3a Anthology\DVD-EN Cards 300DPI" />
<Directory Zoom="Any" Set="evg" Root="XLHQ" Path="DDA - Duel Decks%3a Anthology\EVG-EN Cards 300DPI" />
...
<ImageLocations />
Path="X:\Magic the Gathering\Card sets\XLHQ"
Exclude="100DPI;100 DPI;200DPI;200 DPI;Crops"
to all Directory tags whose @Root = "XLHQ"

I suppose you have the old collection as .json file.Is there any best way to re import the collection from old version ( using jsonv3 ) ? as i check the app will show the cards in Arena collection correctly but nothing show with the old collection
Mtgdb.Gui.v4 looks at
- Code: Select all
history\<formNumber>\<tabNumber>.json
- Code: Select all
history\<formNumber>\<tabNumber>.v2.json
1. move history\0\0.v2.json file away from history directory (first form/first tab)
2. open previous version of Mtgdb.Gui v3
3. import your old collection
4. close Mtgdb.Gui v3 to make it save history\0\0.json file
5. run current version of Mtgdb.Gui v4
v4 will see history\0\0.json and create history\0\0.v2.json from it
with the collection you imported in v3.8
P.S. maybe you can replace steps 2, 3, 4 by just moving your saved .json with collection to history\0\0.json
