Also, I cannot make cards that require paying life, like "Whenever blah does such and such, you may pay 2 life"because the "pay 2 life" becomes "pay life". I'd rather have to go "pay [2]" than not be able to pay life.
This was addressed earlier in the thread. Use ]2[.
I suppose it might be a nice feature to be able to have an option as to whether you want the program to assume mana symbols or not, though.

Is there a way to stop keywords reminder text when you dont want it?
If you go into Set Info, you can change the Automatic Reminder Text. The three options atm are Yes, No, and Only for Custom Keywords, so if you set it to no, it should turn it off...but then it'll be off everywhere and you'll have to type it in.
Is there a way to control the empty space held for flavor text? It seems like it gets automatically determined according to how much rules text you have but sometimes longer rules text gets scrunched small with large spaces on the top and bottom.

I'd like to install MSE, but it said that it only ran on Windows unless somebody compliled it, and I have no idea how to do that. Has somebody done this yet, and if you could they send me the Mac version?
It is time for a bugfix release, version 0.2.4. This version just contains fixes for some of the recently discovered bugs, as well as some older ones:
- Rotating cards outside box
- Exporting split cards is fixed, printing still needs work
- Fixed errors when switching styles
- Fixed the keyword disappearing text problem
- Finally fixed the disappearing text bug related to MSE1 import
- Add a new VS system template (not that you would care :))
Since there's no precedence here (that I know of), I can't say for sure, but with multi-color cards that involve more than two colors, it seems that some of the pencil-borders are off...for instance, take a look at this example. The border on the first p/t box is red instead of blue/black...and I'm not sure that you're supposed to be able to see any border at all, much like the lower p/t box....thoughts?
Every time I type "Splice onto", the <name> field, where you type the name of the mechanic, is right beside onto without a space... as well, anytime I try to put an N in the field, it immediately goes out of the name field... is there any way to fix that or just wait for it to be fixed? I do know the N thing happens with the Enchant <name> field...
and even though my "keywords always on" is off, the <name> field shows up, probably for formatting...
I love the program, even with this problem.. all my proxies are now made by this program!

Yeah, that happens. It's because of the parametre values. It will default <name>, but you can override it by clicking on your "Keywords" tab on M.S.E.2, then by adding a new mechanic. Then in the mechanics data type in "Splice onto" for the name, and select [NO PARAMETER] in the parametre bit.
The parametre "glitch" isn't controlled by "Keywords' Automatic Reminder Text".
I too have a problem. The program is for some reason not showing any text I try to put into the text box or show any numbers in the mana cost. The text works fine in the name and type fields however. Is there something obvious I'm missing?

That's some random glitch that occurs and it wipes info; the way I used to counteract it was to uninstall the MSE 2 program, then reinstall it. Note, this does not annihilate your custom-created sets from your computer.
Having reinstalled, you should be able to load you saved set files, and rework.
As MSE 2 says: "Save frequently". Take the advice seriously, because at times it will crash.

I think it's US$20 per quarter year, or something. I'm not to sure about it, ask people in other threads, as this is a thread about Magic Set Editor 2, an awesome card creation program by Twan van Laarhoven ("twanvl", as he is known here), and his team.
Go twanvl! Thanks for creating it.
Does anyone know when M.S.E. 2 will be updated to even incorporate D.C.I., F.N.M. watermarks and foil frames? Does anyone know how to do it?

As I understand it, when someone submits such things. I believe that's how most of the other visual elements were added. Twanvl is mainly working on the code side of things.

So someone has to submit something.

Oh, wow. That blank "waste" of space has a purpose. I'm not blind, just didn't realize that you could use that for anything.
Thanks.

Go to Set Info and doubleclick on the symbol field. The interface is a bit tricky to figure out but once you get the hang of it it's pretty good.

i got printing splits to work
You can always make the tokens through the Promotional frame. Although it isn't quite the same.:)
M.S.E.2 is just such a great program. Thanks twanvl.;)
very true. this is a great program! i use it to make all my proxys.

Thanks! Worked perfectly.

No problem, it was my pleasure to help.:)
I wonder when a patch that incorporates the new token style, and the guild sigils will be made.
