Now, tokens are combined with their parent set, where they belong, so you won't have to go looking for them. Previously, tokens were separated from their parent set and put in a token folder. Split cards are denoted uniquely by a hyphen surrounded by spaces: Now, flip cards always have an underscore with no space: This release gave me a chance to fix that, and to do so I had to decide on a convention. Throughout our history flip cards and split cards have not been named consistently. This is what Magic Workstation always did with crops and fulls now I have taken that paradigm and expanded it. #Decked builder split cards softwareI did this not only to address the deficiencies outlined above, but because I think the game software should be able to choose between the different pics without the user having to specify different directories for essentially the same pics. The result of all this naming is that all different zip files can exist in the same folder, and be unzipped into the same folder, and there is no need to overwrite or choose between them, and this without bringing any added complexity to the arrangement. Now, all archives are identified by contents: So, you couldn't have zipped crops and zipped fulls in the same place, and the only way to tell the difference between one 4ED.zip and another 4ED.zip (without looking at which folder they were in) was to look at the contents. In the previous torrent all sets were named the same and identified by folder. With the next update, which will likely include sets like Promos that are not accounted for on Gatherer, I'll have to figure out something. #Decked builder split cards updateNot every set has a Gatherer code, but this first torrent update only includes the sets that do. I don't think Gatherer even existed before. #Decked builder split cards codeNow everything has a three-letter set code that corresponds to Gatherer, So Alpha becomes Limited Edition Alpha = LEA. Previously, I used whatever Magic Workstation was using, which means Alpha was "A", and there were a lot of two-letter set codes as well. Now there is a unique four letter identifier for every card type: So if you tried to unzip XLHQs into the same folder as tiny fun crops, you had to choose one or the other, or keep them in separate directories. Until now only crops and fulls were uniquely identified in the file name of the pic. The capitalization on our cards is likewise inconsistent. I didn't have too many corrections to make here, but I did have to make some, since capitalization has changed over the years. Otherwise users will have to rename cards to support each software, which means lots of different sets floating around, which is confusing and wastes bandwidth. If you write software which uses these pics, please consider supporting these changes. ![]() I have implemented many changes to this new torrent.Ī lot of the changes are related to naming. I'm going to cover every change between this torrent and the old one, it will take me some time to finish. ![]()
