Spellweaver ist ein Sammelkartenspiel (CCG), dessen Wurzeln in Magic: The Gathering liegen, das aber einige neue Mechaniken verwendet. Der Card Designer erlaubt die Gestaltung eigener Karten, nur so aus Lust an der Freude. Das Programm verwendet sGUI von Muttonhead.

Introduction

The Card Designer allows to create own cards (only as a fan creation, of course). It supports the established mechanics:

Card Type: Artifact, Artifact Creature, Creature, Instant Spell, Spell (Heroes and Shrines are not supported)
Multi Aspect Cards For one or two different aspects, the designer choose the right design. You can create cards with three or more different aspects anyway, but only the first two aspects determine the design.
Dual Levels
Description field with support for Exhaust, Aspects, Mana and Energy
Invocations
Support of a tooltip box for keywords - if you enter a keyword and a description, the tooltip is shown (otherwise not)
Add game art (only PNG, JP(E)G or BMP)
Save card image (only PNG), save and load card to/from a text file

Description

Mana Cost / Attack / Health / Energy:
You can use any number from 0 to 99, or leave the entry empty to disable it (e. g. for cards with no energy). It's also possible to enter "X" or "?".

Level requirement
Just enter the letters of the aspects, you want to use. For example, to create a card with double nature and a third colorless level, use "NNX".
Level requirements support dual levels. You can enter "W/D" to add a dual level Wisdom/Dominion. Dual levels as a level requirement currently don't have a meaning in the game, so you have to decide by yourself what you want to do with it. ;)

Speed
For Speed, you can use a number from 0 to 4, obviously.

Description text
The text field support shortcuts for different icons. All of them begin with a backslash \

Exhaust: \z or \zzz
Level symbols: \o \w \n \r \d \c \x. You can use the full name like \order or \colorless, if you want.
Mana symbol: \m or \mana for an empty mana symbol; \m1 or \mana1 for a mana symbol with "1"; \mX or \manaX for a mana symbol with "X"
Energy symbol: \e or \energy for an empty energy symbol. Like in \mana, you can use \energy2, \eX and so on.

The Energy icon isn't very nice - I can't manage outlined text, so I had to simplify the icon. I'm sorry about that.

Card art
The program works with PNG, JP(E)G or BMP only. The image is scaled automatically; for best result you should use 900x630 px, including space on the left side for the mana/level requirements (about 130 px).
When you save a card into a text file, the art isn't saved. So after a reload you have to load the art separately.

Save card image
You can only export a card image as PNG. It's size is 1000x1400 px, or 1552x1400 px when using a tooltip. The tooltip box will only be created when you enter a keyword and a keyword description.

Card preview
You always can see a small card preview on the right site. Click on it to see a larger preview.

Examples

Please don't care about overpowerd or underpowerd cards - they are only used to demonstrate the card designer.
Click on the images to see them in full size.
NB: all the pictures are painted by myself, so don't worry :D

Venus Flytrap - a normal creature:

Uncle Sam - a spell with dual level requirement and a tooltip box:

Lupus the Lycanthrop - an invocation spell with some icons in the description text:

Growing Constrictor - variable stats and bigger font size:

Changelog

v0.3.190112:
Tooltip box added

v0.3.190113:
Bugfix: loading of some settings wasn't possible
Added: "X" and "?" for stats (Mana/AT/HP/Energy); different alternatives for font size

v0.3.190412:
Cards without stats (e. g. spells or artifacts) now use the whole available place for the text box.
Subtype and dual level requirement weren't shown correctly after loading.

v0.3.190609:
The Program uses FreeImage now to load and save images. Therefore you can import JP(E)G, too, and card image export will be done as PNG.

v0.3.190610:
Card preview is resized by FreeImage now, so you get a better quality then before.

v0.3.190611:
Performance update: Card preview is generated much faster.
