Cajun Style Templates (UPDATE 3.0.5, Rooms, UB, MSE 2.5!)

How do I do a colorless, Eldrazi style card?

These templates are great! Thank you so much for all this work.

I have a small, request for the Mainframe planeswalkers.
When planeswalkers don't have a loyalty ability in one of their stripes, and instead have a passive bonus, the indentation for that text is different! (such as those which can be your commander or the recent planeswalkers from War of the Spark)



If anyone would like the indentation, it's a pretty easy fix. For each "level X text:" in the style settings, replace the "padding left" with a little script that checks if a loyalty cost is used.


level 4 text:


padding left:

script:

if (card.loyalty_cost_4 == "")

then -8

else 6


I keep getting the error below, it does not hurt anything really, but I am just wondering if there is a way for me to clear it? I did a quick search and a forum search and did not find a file similar to the

My apologies if this is something that was discussed withing the 9 pages ... Thanks for any help

p.s. thanks for all the hard work for updating the frames and adding sweet things to continue my addiction <3

M15 Mainframe has a Nyx style option.

Don't know if this has been asked, but do you have any plans to add some of the additional "Mainframe Walker" options to the "M15 Mainframe" template? Like Borderless mode or the option to turn off "Default Image Size"?

Interesting, I am using the same font that comes with the Advanced MSE 2 that was linked previously in this thread if I recall 

cajun okay thank you very much for the help <3 also for all the work on the Mainframes, they have made a world of difference in the more wordy cards I have created and made the overall look of them MUCH cleaner

Now I am off to look into creating my own Mana Type for my set because everyone keeps crying about the Phyrexian mana... sigh C'est la Vie

m15 mainframe does have popout options

cajun silly question... how difficult do you think it would be to make a "Merge Planeswalker" Card/s Template? I have a "Interesting" idea but I am not sure now difficult it would be to create a template for it in MSE. And as most people just say "You should take this question suggestion blah blah blah, to Cajun's Thread" I figured I would skip all that and take a moment to ask you here respectfully understanding that this is probably a little rude to just "Slap it here" and but here we are... <3 

cajun you are hands down the most amazing and wonderful contributor haha I am sorry I bothered you with that. It is about 90% of what I was looking for. Basically you have laid the ground foundation which is amazing, I would love to have Walker abilities on both sides, but hey I beggars can't be choosers and I will work my idea around that. 

This second question is slightly unrelated, and if you'd like me to keep your forum clean I can PM you directly. Thanks again for this <3

Sorry I should have been a little more clear as to what I was meaning when I mentioned  "Both Sides" there are technically 4 sides in the case of the cards, 2 Fronts and Melds for both back sides.



Hopefully that makes it a little more clear to what I was meaning, but after looking at the Template it would be much too cluttered and difficult to pull off cleanly I would presume. So to make my life easier and the life of anyone who makes templates willing to help, I will just adapt my idea around the way it is now.

So about my second issue, I posted it in the Template forum as I would presume it is the best place to add it, I was trying to add a custom mana symbols but I have hit a snag, I This will keep it cleaner then explaining it all out again. Needless to say, I cannot seem to jump the last hurdle. Thanks for being cool and helpful Cajun as always

Just add the new sparker images that you want to the style file. Open it in a text editor, find the current "sparker" images, and then add a line choice for each of your new ones. For example, it currently has options such as "sparker colors blue", just add a new entry below every instance you see of that for your new color hybrid. Include the images in the folder, under the "planeswalker" subfolder (as that's where the current "sparker" images are located).

Now, it looks like you changed some of the choice options there. I'm not an expert with these cards, so I never fool with the formatting. I'd assume there's something wrong there, so I'd put it back to the default, and then just add your extra sparker choices under where the originals are. (The coding might be set up to look for some VERY specific options.) And since it's a double-faced card, remember there are 'extra options' for both the front card and the back card, as well as the image template for both the front card and the back card. So four spots you potentially have to hit.

so proboards stopped telling me about people posting here oops

k you both overcomplicated this
take a close look at that image you posted



and maybe the instructions in the first post :^)
well i don't know what code you used so my guess is you've reduced the opacity to some unknown degree. Which you can do in whatever editor you used to make the watermark to get the same effect from the mainframe watermark

dunno what you mean by blend styles. if it's the color thing, can be done, but would require a consistent image size from the watermarks
