It's not final yet. There are a number of smallish bugs and such that need to be fixed up. That annoying thing with the text, for example. It's workable, though, and IMHO it's better than MSE1 at the moment.
Meteo, I think you'll be pleased with the way the frames are handled. They're very flexible and cover many permutations that WotC probably won't do for another 10 years.
You are correct, wizards has never used this frame combination. I do not think that it would be popular either. It was for my own purposes, perhaps in time someone will make it.
what do you mean by pre-8th color for artifacts in an 8th template? do you mean the brown color?
That's probably what lossy meant.

Currently MSE2 does support for magic: Hybrid frames (2-5 color hybrids), the new gold games, split and flip cards. Supports also Guild Insignia and Guild Mana.
Does it actually have the Dissension guilds' (Azorius, Rakdos, and Simic) insignias?
yeah least in my patch that i put up earlier does. Think twan will include those in the next update with correct overlays instead of my 50+ insignia files currently needed to do correct coloring.
Ill tinker around with the template colors and see if I can get brown to work
Im not good at actually making a new template. I took the current Art temp and tried to get it close to old school brown. Not sure if you want it any browner, i can try but this is what i have atm
It's nice, but it still has the metal look. Although it would be incredibly more difficult, I wonder what a more rock or pottery based border would look like.
I tried yet again with some different effects and this is my result, I think this is pretty brown like. I hope you all will like. If not I can always try a different brown
EDIT: Changed the Artist Paintbrush to white. As far as scripting for white text ill see what i can do.
Heres a Sample artifact with the new card template I made, the Art line would have to be scripted different but unfortunately i dont know how to do that
Im not sure exactly how to recode the script for this:
# Does the card have a color that requires a white font for copyright/artist?
white_font_colors := filter_rule(match:"^(hybrid 2 color)?black|^land")
font_color := {
if white_font_colors(input:card.card_color) != "" then
rgb(255,255,255)
else
rgb(0,0,0)
}
To work with the brown card template I created for use, I just dont know enought about the different pointers needed to make the font white on the brown art cards but not the current gray/silver
EDIT: I found out how to edit the script only problem is I honestly dont know how to filter it so that only the Darker Artifact color card is made white font and not the gray/silver
As far as putting in a fix if you only are going to use the brown card, edit the style file in Magic Set Editor 2\data\magic-new.mse-style. Go to this line:
Also you can either replace acard or oacard with the new temp (as I dont know how to a) script for another choice and b) add a new card template). But for now its a quick fix for those that like the brown template
A little tidbit to consider for (one of) the next update(s): 1+*/1+* (such as on Allosaurus Rider) doesn't currently fit in the power/toughness box.

What about the 8th edition frame with the pre-8th coloring for artifacts?
You are correct, wizards has never used this frame combination. I do not think that it would be popular either. It was for my own purposes, perhaps in time someone will make it.
I am patient.
Sounds like it. Brown with the funny patchy colour text box. That would be cool.
That's probably what lossy meant.

EDIT: Changed the Artist Paintbrush to white. As far as scripting for white text ill see what i can do.
EDIT: Compare it to the old template
# Does the card have a color that requires a white font for copyright/artist?
white_font_colors := filter_rule(match:"^(hybrid 2 color)?black|^land")
font_color := {
if white_font_colors(input:card.card_color) != "" then

a. old token a bit bigger?
b. The font on the tokens can they be made bigger?
c. New token also bigger?
Thanks in advance
