Anachronism (0.3.8)

[artfreakwiu]

Included with this update: African Kingdoms, Carthaginian, Italian, & Korean cultures; drop-down word lists; and automatic card frame selection based on the culture and card type input (so choosing Norse and Warrior from the drop downs will give you the Norse Warrior frame); and custom flavor text height, and improved foiling via the Style tab.

*NOTE: Due to the massive number of frames used in Anachronism (116 to date), the frames have been divided into subfolders and must be downloaded and installed separately. This has been done to reduce the overall size of the installers which were too large as a single installer to be uploaded here.

Preview:


All fonts are included in a separate zip file.

I've added this to the official list of templates now, on this page.

hey, for a first swing at the template, looks good.
I'm dling the file right now... so after i tinker with making a couple cards, i'll speak me mind on the MSE Forums.

[Ultimuus]

I did see one thing that irks me to no end... it has to do with the print size... on the printer with color ink that my mom has, the cards printed out to about 1/4 the size of a normal card... maybe it's someting to do with the printer i used...

Thought i would bring it up.

[artfreakwiu]

Alright, it's updated, print settings are fixed as well as the Turkish culture cards (improved watermarks.) Link in the first post.

[Ultimuus]

Cool, the printing works fine now... however... if you notice cards like Longbow and Crazy Horse's weapon (can't remember it, though it's mostly with bows,) their warrior triangle is in the back row, something not possible currently, as far as i know... is it too hard to do or what?

[Big_Jim]

I can't seem to get it downloaded... 403 error every time. What do I have to do to get access?

[artfreakwiu]

It seems that the upload link provided by SweetRein in my first post wasn't working properly. Thanks for pointing it out, and it's now been replaced with a functional link.

[Ultimuus]

well, everything is good, but i gotta ask. is there any chance that the red triangle could be moved?

you know, so that long range weapons could be done?

sorry for asking again on that one.

[artfreakwiu]

Yes, what I'll do is add another input area and put it where the triangle is now, as well as make it invisible on non-equipment cards. For that to work, I'll have to add a symbol font just for that triangle, but you make a valid argument, it is needed.

I don't know when I'll be able to do it though, due to how busy I am with final projects for the semester right now.

[Ultimuus]

trust me, i know what you're talking about. finals are next week, and i'm trying to get my stuff done... however, i was thinking of a different style for this, one that could be used for futuristic stuff, like in scifi... when i have the images from my friends, i'll put them up.

I posted the update, see the first post. Once again I'm having problems uploading it to here, and the orbitfiles link won't work for me... so let me know if it does for any of you. If it doesn't, I don't know what I can do about it, but I'll figure something out.

[Pichoro]

The download doesn't work for me. I was going to download it and attach it for you, but the site claimed the file was deleted.

[artfreakwiu]

Hmm... I'll have to work on it. Downloading and attaching it doesn't work either, Rein tried the same thing and the download came up as not having permission to access it. I'm on cable internet, so I don't know why speed and timing out should be an issue. If you want to see the gist of it Pich, Rein and I have been talking about it outside of the public boards.

[Pichoro]

Yeah, I've been watching the conversation on the matter; just silent because I have nothing to contribute. I actually haven't done an attachment since coming to these new forums. Guess that says something about how long its been since I released a template.

Perhaps you can bounce it across to me as a messenger file, and I can see if I can do anything?
