Any plans to make the m20 token template (with a legendary version)? Now that it's confirmed to be the new token frame going forward, yes |

When I use the future sight frames, the mana symbols are just replaced with letters. I checked and I think I don't have the folder with the mana symbols for the future sight frames. I tried re-downloading the future sight frames zip file, but the mana symbols aren't in the zip file. Any idea how I can fix this?

caste symbol The Haldor Collective (RGW): script: set_combine(combine:"shadow", input:set_alpha(alpha: 0.65, input:"/magic-watermarks.mse-include/watermark_haldor.png"))
I have this code inside my magic-watermarks.mse-include/watermarks
I believe this is the set combine function is what is allowing the color to show up on the watermark. Not knowledgable on the mainframe coding or how it would be possible to apply this to custom watermarks.

Downloaded everything, but the engine is saying that it the variable "card_number_m15" is not set and a bunch of stuff is out of date. Help?

I can't seem to get a custom symbol to work for the mainframe DFC template. I can use the ones that are provided (comedy and tragedy) but I can't get my own to work.   Additionally I'm having some trouble with the floating P/T overlapping the flavor text, is there a way to shrink the sides of the flavor text box like you can the top and bottom? |

Downloaded everything, but the engine is saying that it the variable "card_number_m15" is not set and a bunch of stuff is out of date. Help? your script file is out of date. make sure you properly overwrote the magic.mse-game folder I can't seem to get a custom symbol to work for the mainframe DFC template.

Additionally I'm having some trouble with the floating P/T overlapping the flavor text, is there a way to shrink the sides of the flavor text box like you can the top and bottom? your code looks correct, reload MSE and make sure it's not just the caching. it doesn't currently have a narrowing style, you can usually flub it with the other options though. |

Turns out I was being an idiot and placed the images in the folder where I downloaded the mainframe package originally, not the actual working directory. It's all good now. I'll try and make it work by flubbing it, figured I'd have to but thought I'd ask. Something new I'm seeing is that the floating P/T doesn't seem to follow the same font as the rest of the numbers, do I just not have the right one installed? It also looks a little bit too high in the frame.  |

Okay, I got the templates themselves working, but the fonts aren't showing up right within the templates?
Also, how do I get the separation lines within the planeswalker template?

Loving all the templates, Cajun. Been using them on and off for a long time.
Just a quick question; is there any chance you'll be making big text templates in the future? I ask because the current ones don't have any support for any of the new card types, like legendaries, vehicles, or anything color-shifty.

These templates are awesome!
I'm having a little bit of difficulty with the subtype compressing everything like the margin is too far left. I'm not sure if it's my set symbol width, or something in one of my template files, but not matter how many subtypes I have, it compresses it further and further left leaving the empty space just before the symbol. This happens on both the regular M15 as well as the legendary one. Any ideas?

This happens on both the regular M15 as well as the legendary one. Any ideas? Go to \data\magic-m15.mse-style (or the legendary mse-style that you are using), open the "style" text file, scroll down to "##################### Card type" then you will find "type:" and "width:". You can modify this width number here. |

Figured out the root of the problem. In preferences, I had my zoom set very high so the exported card images would be higher resolution. When changing back to 100% it fixed the problem, but subsequent rezooming caused it again. The style sheet adjustment just messed up the 100% zoom one which was already working.
Still not sure of the fix.

Hi, I just grabbed the big pack with everything in and unzipped it to my MSE/data folder but nothings kicking in. Are the fonts included in that pack or do I have to go elsewhere, as that's the only thing I can think of that might be causing it to not work?

Dragonlover open the fonts folder and install the fonts individually if the templates aren't showing up at all, make sure you've put the big stack of folders into MSE/data and not just the Megafile folder |

I did a little searching in the code, and for the M15 stuff it says that for the Name Line, Card Types, etc. (which is what I was having a problem with), the font is Beleren Bold. I'm gonna guess that I do not have Beleren Bold, and it was not supplied in the original download. Anyway to fix this?

Go to preferences, set your zoom to 250% (have to type that in) go back to your cards and check the cards to see if the type line gets smushed to the left. |

Hey Cajan,
Timmy here, with Rudy's Investments.
Many Magic: The Gathering Homebrewers ask "Have you ever considered making Mainframe Extra?"
I would love to see Mainframe's customization and ease of use with the custom colors. I used to template WAY back in the dark ages, so I would even help out, assuming I remember enough to be useful at it.
I know you have a lot on your plate and tons of requests, but that's because we love you.
Together we are the sixth, seventh, and eighth colors of magic.

Any plans on an Adventure template? Looks like it's going to be a bit tricky. template work can't really begin until after release and we have big enough scans to work on blanking. the code side should be fine (aside from the flavor bar which is gonna suuuuuck) as it's basically aftermath but arranged differently. |

Post by arthurxiv on Sept 20, 2019 7:05:45 GMT
Tesagk So either you go directly to the Leveler template folder and copy the level up pics from there to your new template folder or you add a paragraph in the style file of your new template that says that it depends on the Leveler template and then it the text you add the path leading to those pics that are still in the Leveler template folder. The easiest for this would be to start from copying the Leveler template and then add the masks/images that you want instead of starting from the Legendary or M15 or whatever template that is not Leveler, because of the coding of the text fields. cajun would probably give you a better explaination than me though.

MSE\data\magic-m15-leveler.mse-style\lvlup_texture_1.png, etc.. But you also need the color blending that is done in the template style file. {Blending} lvlup texture 1:

render style: image

lvlup multiply 1:
