Version 1.6
3.2 Mb
Last updated
2002-06-29
This the 1.7 version.
It is not a full
setup. You must first
install 1.6 then copy
this 1.7 version
on top of the old
1.6 exe file.
Make sure you do a
backup of your 1.6
projects before you
open them in 1.7.
There should not be
any problems, but hey
I'm a programmer
and we do bugs. :)

The Talisman Card Set Creator
When designing the cards for the Faerieland expansion I started out using Word for storing the texts and PhotoShop for the creating of the cards. It worked but it was a tideous process.
Then I discovered Duane Hauts Taliman Card Creator and designing cards become so wonderfully easy.
But after a while I discovered some more things I wanted a card editor to do so I had two options. I could tell Duane and wait for him to implement them, if he liked them. Or I could write my own program. The latter was faster so the Card Set Creator came about. And since I hade such a good use for it myself I thought, why not release to the community.
The big difference between my program and Duane's is that his program is focused on creating a single card at a time, although all kind of cards. My program is focused on designing a whole set of cards at the same time, although only adventure-type cards, large cards and character cards, and then create all when the complete set is ready.
So please, download the software, install the program and tell me what you think of it. I'm afraid there's really no help in the program and F1 only lists a few shortcuts but I'm working on an online help for it. Until that's up you'll have to experiment with the program. But I think it's fairly robust though. But mail me with critisism, both good and bad.
