MSE - Easy Army Card Creator (V2.5) (New Glyph Cards)

[DanieLoche]

Hey guys,

Some of you would be interested in a rectangular army card style looking like the example bellow ?



Other version, with a small layout change :

Spoiler Alert!

I have a question:

I printed out cards directly from MSE yesterday and see that they are kind of faded and blurrier than the cards I printed off from pdfs in HoSS and C3V. Can I get better results by saving or exporting from MSE and then printing insted of printing directly or how do the profis in the art departments do it?

I export to jpg or png before printing so I can insert them into a publisher document and make sure they print the right size.

Yeah, save as to png and then convert to PDF. That might help.

Thanks.

Next question:
How do I manage the auto-fill reminder texts? I found how to turn them off, but it still captializes, upper cases and bolds the text. Quite annoying if you are doing something like: This power may not be used if power-with-reminder-text is used.

I too would like this fixed.
I misspell words to get around it, often with spaces and then edit in art program using Arial Narrow.

It is annoying. I keep a separate card set with the keywords turned off.

[DanieLoche]

I always switch the feature off. ^^

An option is to edit the "keyword" file, located in [software folder]\data\heroscape.mse-game. And add 2 spaces at the end of the "match" lines (May take a few minutes to do it for all the special powers, I know ^^). This way, when you want to use the feature, just write the power name, followed by those 2 spaces before the line break.
And inside the text, usually you will never add a double space after the power's name : no more trouble. ^^

I'm having a little trouble with pronoun scripting. From what I understand, {HIS()} should simply insert the unit's pronoun (as determined by the dropdown box in "style") correct?

[Pumpkin_King]

Nevermind! I figured it out. I didn't see the "options specific to this card" box and was wondering why the cards would swap pronouns a bunch.

Alright, I came upon this problem again - trying to make a Tracking Rockets Special Attack just keeps popping up with the Brave Arrow ability Tracking. Hitting the (...) disables the auto-fill for Tracking Rockets Special Attack. Is there a way to bypass this?

[DanieLoche]

Again, I see only 2 solutions.
- Delete the autocompletion feature for Tracking by deleting the relevant lines in the file "keywords".
- request for double space at the end of the power names to trigger the autocompletion feature. I actually changed my file this way. You can find it here, and update it with your own powers if you want (then don't forget to add two " " characters at the end of their names to get the same behavior as the other powers.
