I've made some custom hi-res frames which you can get here: (Download by clicking the icon on the top right, then just unzip the archive in the data folder that's inside the MSE folder. If you already had an older version, allow overwrite upon extraction. It might take a while.)
Here are some examples of cards made with these templates:

They kind of feel like a mashup of the Mystical Archive frames and the Zendikar Rising expeditions. I like the look.

I got a big problem. Literally I download your templates but I'm unable to use them because they are literally too big and I can't do anything with them when I open MSE

lux go in the Edit menu -> Preferences... -> Display tab, and set the zoom to something smaller like 50%.
You can also manually type in a smaller value if you need to.

Oh that worked thank you. Only one last thing. When I want to make a "print review" the card size in this case are weirdly... very small size (and doesnt change how much I zoom in that case). Usually, if I print for one page, I fill 9 cards for page at a normal card size. With your templates I fill 36 cards in only one page, so are unprintable for proxies because they're too small. How do I fix this?

Yeah, that's due to a blunder I made. I was gonna fix it in the next version of these frames but have still not had the time to properly update them.
Anyway, to fix it you need to do this: Open your MSE folder and navigate to the following folder:
data/magic-genevensis-00-main.mse-style/
In this folder, there is a file simply named "style". Open that file with a text editor. Around line 33 or so, you will find the following:
card dpi: 600
You need to change that to:
card dpi: 300
If you are using other frames like the planeswalker or adventure one, you'll need to do the same modification in the corresponding folders
data/magic-genevensis-01-planeswalker.mse-style data/magic-genevensis-03-adventure.mse-style
etc...

Will there be a Battle Template coming soon? I LOVE these frames, and they look fantastic for a custom set I'm making for me and my friends!

Yeah, I'll try to put together the update I've been putting off, and it will contain a battle frame.
I can get it done within two weeks, can't promise any sooner.

Alright, I finished the update. Will have to make another one in the future, cause there was a ton of stuff I couldn't do.
I updated the link in the original post. The update includes: - A battle frame - A prototype option for the main frame - A paragraph highlighting system for the main frame, for dice rolls and such - A choice bar for the main frame, for cards like "Cryptic Spires"
- 5 and 6 abilities walkers with adjustable textbox - An optional textbox for the full art layout of the class frame
- And a lot more tiny improvements here and there that I forget
Tell me if you encounter any problems.

You can also manually type in a smaller value if you need to.
Can you tell me where I must type the smaller value on style on par with the normal templates so I don't have to zoom each time?

You can't have a different value for each style unfortunately.
But if you use a zoom of 75% or 80%, you should be able to see both hi-res and normal-res cards at an acceptable size.

It's the one called "Full Art".
You can also make tokens with the type line at the bottom by using the "Class" frame, and in the style tab, set the "layout" to "full art". You can then make the rarity symbol disappear by typing "0,0,60" in the "shrink rarity symbol" field, and you can make the textbox smaller by entering a number in the "Chop global textbox" field.

Update MSE by downloading the Lite pack to fix the card stamp issue.

Literally just made an account on this forum to say how much I love these frames. They are drop-dead gorgeous. And the fact that they are brand new and still being updated?? On a different note, is there any support (or planned support) for double-faced cards? (I know I can make two cards, but it feels a little clunky) Keep doing what you're doing, please  |

GenevensiS is there any future possibility for a clear card template? Not a ful art one, one that it's like the main.

I just pushed a micro update. You can get it from the link in the original post. Tell me if I broke anything.
mooseinahat Thanks for the kind words. I don't plan on making a DFC template. Unfortunately, the way MSE works, DFC templates require a ton of redundant work. You can't just say: put that template on the front and that other one on the back. You have to re-code every other template into the DFC one, and you can't just copy paste either, you have to specify how they interact, etc... it's a huge mess. I'm honestly in awe that cajun had the courage to do it for normal frames.
I do however want to provide everything needed to make each side of the card separately. You can add transformation symbols, reminders, and the update I just pushed allows for transformation notches:
Tell me if you want me to add anything else that would be useful.
Sanfonier of the Night With the new update, you can do the following to get something resembling a clear frame:
Walker template
Namebox opacity percentage: 60
Typebox opacity percentage: 60
Number of textboxes: One
Textbox opacity percentage: 60
Textbox color: Use Card Color (light)
Extended art: Yes
(also the walker frame actually has a power/toughness box on top of the loyalty box)
And to get the best results, once you've changed options that increase the size of the image, it's best to double click on the image and re-import it, that way MSE gets an updated crop from the source image. Otherwise it's just going to stretch the old crop it had.
dukearchibald To get chapters in the Saga template, go in the style tab, and under "snap chapter to box", write the ability numbers where you want the chapters to be. So for example, if you want chapters I, II and III to be in ability 1, chapter IV to be in ability 2, and chapter V to be in ability 3, you would write: 1,1,1,2,3
