Thanks for this update, i'm going to use it to générate HQ french cards, but you doesn't include the updated french database.
Any way to extract the full french oracle database to use it in your great software easilly ?

Thanks again

Hello.
I've extracted form a french website the french cards translation and have converted them to a csv translation file for HQ Card generator but on lots of cards i get this error message : "Error matching card data for card...."
If i look in the cards.csv, i found the same name for the original name.
So i think my csv is probably not formated correctly or have some type of corruption.

If you can help me.

thanks.

as a new user fo the forum i can't post full urls so the csv database is at yatoshi "dot" com "slash" cards-french.7z

[Snacko]

there is some corruption in the names

rathi Berserker -> Aerathi Berserker

need to use symbols instead of escaped sequences so:

R&amp;D's Secret Lair -> R&D's Secret Lair
&quot;Ach! Hans, Run!&quot; -> ""Ach! Hans, Run!""

wrong English name:
Indomptable Archangel -> Indomitable Archangel
Sashi, Daughter of Seshiro -> Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro
Kill Destroy -> Kill! Destroy! (and other UNG/UNH cards)

legal text error:
example: Fasting
"faim" needs to be ""faim"" as inside text to get quotes you need to double them

all the split cards nned to be changed from:
Boom // Bust -> Boom/Bust

the longest card name is truncuated in our databse so it has to match

Our Market Research Shows That Players Like Really Long Card Names So We Made This Card to Have the Absolute Longest Card Name Ever Elemental
->
Our Market Research Shows That Players Like Really Long Card Names So We Made th

All avatars need to be in the format of:
Ashnod -> Avatar: Ashnod

Planes: (dont have all planes in db atm so some may show as erros)
Truga Jungle the legal text ends in line 1 with ", you need to delete it

Tokens:
no tokens in db so these will error Dragon Welp, Beast, Elephant

Schemes:
no schemes in db yet, and there is no renderer to support them so these will error

Separators for split, flip, transform:
// -> -----
}———————{ Flip }———————{ -> -----

B.F.M. may error, I need to check and probably fix translating cards that special

Once you fix these the list of errors should go down to schemes, some planes, B.F.M..

I'll update the db to include schemes and newer planes so these errors should vanish soon.

[satsuki]

thanks a lot, i'll looking for it as soon as i get home !

[satsuki]

Hello,
i tested your correction and have some errors fixed but i'm steel having lot of error i desn't understand.

for exemple:

the card database
Marsh Casualties,ZEN,B,Sorcery,,,U,{B}{B},"Kicker #(You may pay an additional as you cast this spell.)#
Creatures target player controls get -1/-1 until end of turn. If Marsh Casualties was kicked, those creatures get -2/-2 until end of turn instead.",,Scott Chou,101\249

my french database
Marsh Casualties,Victimes des marécages,Rituel,"Kick .
Les créatures que le joueur ciblé contrôle gagnent -1/-1 jusqu'à la fin du tour. Si les Victimes des marécages ont été kickées, ces créatures gagnent -2/-2 jusqu'à la fin du tour à la place"

i don't understand there is the error, that's why i think about a struture error in my csv.

Thanks again

[Snacko]

This one looks correct, however they migth be corruption in the previous or nearby entries. Reupload the whole file again and I'll recheck it.

[satsuki]

I have uploaded a micro csv file (same link as before) with just one card (the marsh casualties).

the cvs file is only:

/////////////////////////
Marsh Casualties,Victimes des marécages,Rituel,"Kick
Les créatures que le joueur ciblé contrôle gagnent -1/-1 jusqu'à la fin du tour. Si les Victimes des marécages ont été kickées, ces créatures gagnent -2/-2 jusqu'à la fin du tour à la place"
////////////////////////////////////////////////

but i get always the same error, i miss something obvious, but what ?

it just means that the English database doesn't have those schemes while the flavor french database has them

[satsuki]

No, i mean :
"Error matching card data for card: Marsh Casualties"
I have about 2500 error like that when i try to generate all card
I don't use french flavor for now

Have you generated sucessfully the french card in the cvs i linked or do you have the same error as me ?

[satsuki]

I made a test with a notepad build csv

works:
black vise,test nom vf,test type vf,"test texte vf"

don't works:
marsh casualties,test nom vf,test type vf,"test texte vf"
Marsh Casualties,test nom vf,test type vf,"test texte vf"

so it seems that's only the name of the card witch bugs, but the name is exactly the same as in the cards.csv

[Snacko]

It works just fine here. As long as the name is the same as in cards.csv it should work.
