What's up?
Here I will post my latest comments on my builds and record my progress with the Game Pack for L5R.
Let's put this wikipedia to some good use!
I am currently hosting some files here (http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/~liinux/mws/) for you.
Progress as of 21th of February, 2005
I've completed the rendering of Events, Followers and Actions now. I will continue to make frames for the other card types, but I will have problems with the personalities, since my sets doesn't have any faction information.
In order to get around this I am making a Set Editor in java. I'm done with everything except the Editor part ;-) (that is, the reader and writer part is done). You can use it as it is now in order to reformat set files to my nice, clean, formatting. I've made it usable with ALL set files, so it might come in handy for others.
When I'm done I will be looking for some interested people that might want to help me with finding traits manually, adding them to a separate field, and removing them from the text box.
Progress as of 14th of February, 2005
I have completed the set files, they can be used for playing but they are incomplete for collecting. All cards should exist in their most recent printing, but they doesn't show in all of their earlier versions. I really want them to include traits information as well, but that might be hard to do right now. Later...
Regarding the play module, I have created the playing zone using two decks and two separate discard piles. The next important step is to implement the provinces in a good way. I really want to make the provinces work somewhat like the hand, but if I cannot find any solution I will have to use the solution in L5R-the-game and Gempukku, that is a small manual playing field without any automatic functions. I have currently asked Detonator for help, I'm hoping that his expertise will help me.
Regarding card rendering, I am not really a graphic artist, but I have succeeded to render the events in a good way. I will post a screenshot soon. Franky will probably help me with getting blank card frames (by photoshopping, yay). I am lacking the correct card fonts too, the one used for card text is "Concorde Nova", and the titles use "L5Rfont" (their own font). The title might be substituted by "Tempus Sans" or "Cezanne", I've also had "Lafcadio" and "Caricature" as examples for replacment title fonts. I have no suggestions on what to use instead of "Concorde Nova" though.
