How do I change card art and graphics in general?

[Kieran]

Okay, we've been playing for some time now and although MTG has some amazing art the time has come for us to change a few. Are there any programs / tutorials available? I searched the forum and found a few tidbits of information that's pointed me in the right direction but is there a complete tutorial with step by step instructions?

This tutorial is still valid for DotP2013:

if you need to know how to optimally set the TDX plugin when saving a file, scroll down the topic to my post:
viewtopic.php?f=65&t=2956&p=81034#p81034

This is the preferred way to save TDX files, while I'd suggest to convert TDX files to PNG through Gibbed Tools (drag and drop the TDX file onto Gibbed.Duels.TdxConvert) when you need to open them: some don't get opened properly with Paint.NET without first converting them.

If you also need to know how to open a WAD file (in order to add/change TDX files inside) try to follow the last link in my signature, that should help. Anyway I always recommend not to change official WAD files, you are safer if you make a new WAD file that overrides the contents of the official ones. You can start from the test WAD file in my tutorial, or from the "cosmetic" WAD in my mod (which already overrides the loading screen picture and the expansion symbols).

Thanks! I'll get started right away.
