Card Creation Request Thread

Another "minor" issue, the game cuts the image in half and compresses it.

[thefiremind]

I'm afraid it means that lands can't have full art in DotP2013 no matter what.

Yeah, I figured that was the end of the road on that one. Thanks for all your help though. I am going to just add the art of the Return to Ravnica/Ravnica City Guilds art instead:

Ok Success. The new lands have been implemented:




For anyone that wants these new lands just download this deck:

It also contains a new loading screen and new planeswalker personas to choose from.

EDIT: If anyone still has DotP 2010 I would appreciate it if you can give me the TDX images for the Heart of Worlds deck.

Here is the art for Plains and Forest from the Heart of Worlds deck.

Another "minor" issue, the game cuts the image in half and compresses it.

Did you try adjusting the Masks as well?
G_BASIC_LAND_FULL_MASK.TDX -> G_BASIC_LAND_MASK.TDX
W_BASIC_LAND_FULL_MASK.TDX -> W_BASIC_LAND_MASK.TDX

Just a question i know tdx are 512x376 or multiples oficial 4 does the game accepts smaller sizes ? M14 slivers crops loose quality when i stretch them

It should accept smaller sizes as long as they are multiples of 4 (and try to keep the proportions, 512x376 is about 1.36:1, otherwise the card will stretch them), but you'll see the bad quality when you zoom the card anyway.

Hi, a few requests/questions:

Would it be possible to code Immerwolf and Moonmist? I can make new Werewolves extrapolating from the existing ones, but I wouldn't know how to do those two.

And is it possible to code Maze's End, specifically the checking for gates with different names?

Thank you Riiak but I am still missing the frames for the Mountain, Island and Swamp not to mention I was not able to find the last island image. With that said, thefiremind mentioned that we cannot force the game to use one particular frame so how did 2010 manage that with Heart of Worlds?

EDIT: I tested it with the land masks and nothing happened, it still cuts off in half. Also the images you gave me from 2010 are not compatible, they actually look worst. Thanks for helping me anyways.

any word on the guildgates and maze end ? i'm curious if they are available

[Master Necro]

any word on the guildgates and maze end ? i'm curious if they are available

I'm making all the guildgates and they will be in my new released decks in a week or so.

I am having problems creating Svogthos, the Restless Tomb , because I don't know how to code "This creature's power and toughness are each equal to the number of creature cards in your graveyard.", the only similar code I found is with Consuming Aberration and I don't know how to edit it so it works for my graveyard and only creature cards.

Code: Select all

  <STATIC_ABILITY active_zone="ZONE_ANY">

Works like a charm! Thanks man!

Thank you Riiak but I am still missing the frames for the Mountain, Island and Swamp not to mention I was not able to find the last island image. With that said, thefiremind mentioned that we cannot force the game to use one particular frame so how did 2010 manage that with Heart of Worlds?

DotP 2010 allowed for specifying card frames so in 2010 framing was just an issue of finding or creating an appropriate frame then specifying it in the card's xml (using the FRAMECOLOUR tag). 2013 does not allow us to specify the frames in the card xml so we can't force specific frames.

As for the images I gave you the original DotP 2010 images which have a black box around the actual image, it should be relatively easy to convert them to PNG and crop out the actual image to use.

Since using the land masks didn't work then that probably means we have a model issue, I'm not sure if the game still uses the CARD_FLAND.CNT model definition and if it does it may be structured differently from the CARD_FLAND.CNT used by DotP 2010 so they may not be interchangeable.
