HQ Card generator 8.x

All languages ZEN http://www.mediafire.com/?ewt02dnzuqj

The Planes update has to wait a bit as at the moment it works only with English text. I'll get it fixed during the weekend.

i have problem because this program doesnt print symbols(rare,common or uncommon) from ex. Nemesis and Tenth edition, from M10 is good.

If you have the preeighth and eighth directories in the root of the card generator, move them to the images folder, so it looks like images/preeighth and images/eighth.

If you don't have those you can get http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zanhnujxmwj

uff Thank You much!!! Much better...
Now i have next problem, tried to print Jace Beleren in set DD2 (Jace vs Chandra)[i found only full, but cant find crops], where to download this hq crops for this set, and maybe some other, because i dont have all sets, need maybe 2-3 sets more, but can't find them.


Also i have some clue, perfect size for card borders is 25, then you need only to cut-round edges.

hm i still have problems, look:



and in output file 3 cards(2x ajani and jace, as it looks in this file below) from M10 and LRW are too zoomed up http://i35.tinypic.com/2j5l6br.jpg


ok now all is good i made new folder DD2 and added 2 pics from Jace vs Chandra set hq crops.


Also downloaded this file http://rapidshare.com/files/134858777/P ... r.rar.html and added images to both folder: LRW and M10, and now generating these cards is very good.



Have one more question, can i made my own language(polish) for examply 100 cards, how to do that?

Hi rynio,

You'll find the instructions for Russian at this link:
http://www.slightlymagic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=465&p=10420&hilit=russian#p10514

Make sure you find a font that works with the language you are trying to use.

[rynio]

its possible to print special promo/foil card ex. Shivan Dragon, maybe with little different colors or something like that?

[Nyth]

You'd have to use a photoshopfilter after you've generated your images in order to get that effect. If I am not mistaken, Magic Set Editor has a plugin that does that.

Amazing work here !

A few minor remarks :

-I was wondering if there's a way to have the same font size in the three textboxes of a planewalker.
-I'm getting an error message for Bolas and the three planeswalker of the Zendikar set ("missing legality change from legal text")
-Are there fullart+overlay around for zendikar's planewalkers yet ? (Halfcat maybe?)

How to make Foil/Promo cards?

[rynio]

Hello , i made matrix and photoshop scripts to well printing cards in HQ CARD Generator, didn't make instruction for use this yet, but if you need, just write on my msn from profile.

Wow, this is a cool utility. Thanks for all the hard work. Nice that you use the updated rules text too.

For those on Vista (ugh), a trick to get the drag and drop to work is to shift and right click within Windows Explorer and choose "Copy as Path" and then paste that into the window.

Here's an update to the addDecklist function in ImageWriter.php.

It makes the decklist generation play nicer with EDH and other higher card count decks, by breaking the list into (default) 50 card chunks. That gives you a nice 2 page list for a 100 card deck and keeps it from overrunning each page with all the unique (and often longer named) cards or from triggering the sideboard code which might make the individual pages look weird.

Code: Select all

   
      if ($this->decklistOnlyOutput || $config['render.decklist']) {
         $count = count($decklist->cards);
         if ($count <= 75) {
            // 75 or less and we assume this is a standard 60 card deck with upto a 15
            // card sideboard.
            $decklistRenderer = new DecklistRenderer();
            $decklistRenderer->cards = $decklist->cards;
            $decklistRenderer->writer = $this;
            $decklistRenderer->outputDir = $config['output.directory'];
            $decklistRenderer->outputName = 'Decklist - ' . $decklist->name;
            $this->renderers[] = $decklistRenderer;
         } else {
            // Enough cards for a multi page list.
            $cardsperdeckpage = isset($config['output.decklist.cardsperpage']) ?  $config['output.decklist.cardsperpage'] : 50;
            echo "\n";
         
            warn('Large/Highlander deck detected, going to ' . $cardsperdeckpage . ' card per page lists.');
            
            $cardsrendered = 0 ;
            while ($cardsrendered < $count) {
               // slice out each card block.
               $thesecards = array_slice($decklist->cards, $cardsrendered, $cardsperdeckpage);
               $decklistRenderer = new DecklistRenderer();
               $decklistRenderer->cards = $thesecards;
               $decklistRenderer->writer = $this;
               $decklistRenderer->outputDir = $config['output.directory'];
               $decklistRenderer->outputName = 'Decklist - ' . $decklist->name . ' page ' . (floor($cardsrendered / $cardsperdeckpage) + 1);
               $this->renderers[] = $decklistRenderer;
               $cardsrendered += $cardsperdeckpage;
            }
         }
      }
