#40k incomplete card skins in card catalog

Hello, I'd like to register a little complaint. I was remaking my 40k commander decks via downloads in order to get the appropriately themed prints, and when I was going through the card catalog in deck editor, I found that you guys only had one faction's card reprint for a lot of the 40k cards (I.E. only having the chaos wayfayer's bauble and not the necron one). Was there some trouble coding in all the arts for all the cards? I just would like to know, since I kind of want to make sure each 40k commander deck has the appropriate skins for each faction. I'm kind of a perfectionist that way. If you need it, here's the official 40k universes beyond card list just in case it helps you code the remaining cards into the card catalog, but I just want to let you guys know that if it was too much for your coding team to code all of the skins in I fully understand and accept that. Thanks! https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/card-image-gallery/warhammer-40000-commander-decks

Actually, I just googled if you can scan card pics into forge after going the #images section of our discord group, and I think I might be able to scan in card pics that way and add them to the card catalog, but I may need some help doing it. Could anyone help me with that by giving me a list of instructions on how to do it? Thanks!

I can see that you're on the latest snapshot so you're up to date so that's good

#

For starters, we don't "code" in the card art. The way it's done is a singular script is made for a card... so in your example Wayfarer's Bauble, this was first scripted years ago when it was first printed

#

For the art, they are defined inside edition files. So for 40k the edition file should show as follows (which it does)

#

That shows there are four available for this set (two necron, two chaos)

#

Here they are showing in Forge

#

Can you check if in your deck editior you have this ticked?

#

Unique Cards Only

#

If ticked it will only show one

#

@blissful leaf I ticked it but the only one I had was this one.

blissful leaf
#

Can you untick it and show me the 40k edition?

celest shadow
#

I only have the chaos one.

blissful leaf
#

and the second one is a chaos one too?

celest shadow
#

Yep.

blissful leaf
#

Are you using the mobile port?

celest shadow
#

I'm on mac book.

blissful leaf
#

I can see Kev typing he might know more about why

#

i think there's a bug on snapshot since I purposely disable the etched art (and other duplicated art... I really don't like duplicated etched with the same art)... guess I fixed it here on my local copy... should be fixed on next snaps..

blissful leaf
#

Ah there we go

shut vortex
#

if you want all card art (including the etched art and any duplicate art) you might want to use release version @celest shadow

celest shadow
#

@shut vortex I'm on a mac book air and I'm not sure how do everything on forge. I'd appreciate some help.

shut vortex
#

you can't unless you edit the source code and compile it by yourself

celest shadow
#

@shut vortex Can you give me directions on how to do that?

blissful leaf
# blissful leaf

I think what has happened is Kev has disabled the etched artworks... if you look at this image here

#

the art is numbered.... so 1 normal, 2 etched, 3 normal, 4 etched

#

You have images picking up 1 & 2 which is the same card twice (normal and etched)

#

But just a guess

#

@shut vortex I went to the content downloader and clicked download skins, but I'm not sure what to do from there.

@blissful leaf Well then, I'm really not sure what to do unless the forge admins go back and start adding in all the card images for the 40k cards.

@blissful leaf Ok, but you also have not added in Seeker of Slaanesh to the card catalog as well. I hope you can take care of these bugs and get all the 40k card faces into forge in the next update. Thanks!

#

@blissful leaf Ok, I added tectonic giant in its place due to googling a recommended update for the chaos deck. I hope the bug gets fixed soon.

@shut vortex How do I search for an art id and collector id as well?

blissful leaf
#

should be fixed on next snaps..

#

Just wait and try the new snapshot in a day or two and it will be fixed

celest shadow
#

Ok, I was mostly asking because I was having trouble finding the 40k plains in deck editor. Is there a way to advance search a specific set for cards in deck editor?

#

@shut vortex Out of curiousity, why was seeker of slaanesh so hard to code into forge?

celest shadow
#

@blissful leaf Oops sorry!

blissful leaf
celest shadow
#

@blissful leaf thanks

#

How do I set it so that I only see 40K cards?

blissful leaf
celest shadow
#

@blissful leaf Would that be commander.

#

Sorry but I can't hold your hand through this, explore the program

#

The arrows are drop down, click them to expand

celest shadow
#

@blissful leaf Sorry, it's just that I've never done this before. I usually have my sister's boyfriend help me download and create decks via finding them on sites like tapped out and moxfield.

Got it, though I do wish that there was some way to select all the check boxes I want to turn off at once. It's a bit annoying to have to check every single one off by myself.

blissful leaf
#

You select the ones you want to see not the ones you want to turn off...

celest shadow

@blissful leaf I just figured that out, but thanks!
