Download XMage FACE images

Precursor steps

IMPORTANT!

  • Go to the directory where modo is installed. Look for the .xml files and copy all of them to where you put the perl files.

Brief overview

  • Make sure you did the precursor step
  • Run get_mtgo_artids.pl and redirect the 'echo.*cut.pl' type statements out to a batch file called dl_face.bat
  • Change wget_image to wget_image_test_force in the resultant dl_face.bat file (both will work but wget_image_test_force cycles thru all known variants of the image and then downloads the biggest possible image for the best quality).
  • Run the bat file - will take around 24 hours..
  • Copy all the directories that are created (ones like AER etc) to $XMAGE_IMAGES_DIR/FACE/
  • Ensure that you have MTGO Rendering option enabled inside xmage.

STEP 1) When you run get_mtgo_artids.pl, you should run it like the following:

(From a cmd prompt):

d:
cd D:\perl_programs\modo_2021
get_mtgo_artids.pl | find /I "echo" > dl_face.bat

(Note the unfiltered output from get_mtgo_artids.pl should have "Finished reading ~24300 names" or else you don't have all the correct xml files from modo)

D:\perl_programs\modo_2021>get_mtgo_artids.pl
Finished reading 24205 names
Hypnotic Specter;1E;DOC_547;artid=118;;(ID2_10177) << current line (1000th line..)

4E;DOC_4454;;Clone=(4453) << current line (1000th line..)
etc
Lavaglide Pathway;ZNR;413290;
  echo "1" | cut.pl stdin "http://mtgoclientdepot.onlinegaming.wizards.com/Graphics/Cards/Pics/413290_typ_reg_sty_.jpg" "ZNR\Lavaglide Pathway.jpg" wget_image
Throne of Makindi;ZNR;415142;010
  echo "1" | cut.pl stdin "http://mtgoclientdepot.onlinegaming.wizards.com/Graphics/Cards/Pics/415142_typ_reg_sty_010.jpg" "ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg" wget_image
Plains;ZNR;413279;020
etc

STEP 2) Edit dl_face.bat and modify all wget_image to be wget_image_test_force

  • You can then use notepad or gvim or whatever to open up get_all_face_cards.bat

STEP 3) GO AND DO STEP 99!!

  • aka make the 200 odd directories like AER, ZEN, ZNR that the face images will be copied into

STEP 4) So, now, run a test script to make sure that cut.pl is actually working and downloading the FACE image file correctly:

echo "1" | cut.pl stdin "http://mtgoclientdepot.onlinegaming.wizards.com/Graphics/Cards/Pics/415142_typ_reg_sty_010.jpg" "ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg" wget_image_test_force

(Note, output should look like this):

D:\perl_programs\modo_2021>echo "1" | cut.pl stdin "http://mtgoclientdepot.onlinegaming.wizards.com/Graphics/Cards/Pics/415142_typ_reg_sty_010.jpg" "ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg" wget_image_test_force

Save in ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg
http://mtgoclientdepot.onlinegaming.wizards.com/Graphics/Cards/Pics/415142_typ_reg_sty_010.jpg >>> ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg

STEP 5) Run the download batch file.

D:\perl_programs\modo_2021>dir dl_face.bat
 Directory of D:\perl_programs\modo_2021
18/10/2021  19:52         4,656,605 dl_face.bat

... 24 hours later..

STEP 6) Rerun the get_mtgo_artids.pl script and get out the copy commands

d:
cd D:\perl_programs\modo_2021
get_mtgo_artids.pl | find /I "copy" > cp_face.bat

STEP 7) Run the cp_face.bat

  • This will put copy of all the duplicate FACE images into the appropritate spot.

STEP 8) Make a directory called FACE in your xmage_images

  • For example, my xmage_images directory is d:\xmage_images, so I made a directory d:\xmage_images\FACE

STEP 9) Copy all the 200+ directories you made across

  • Check that all the directories have images in them
  1. You should have a file at this point called: D:\perl_programs\modo_2021\ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg
  • Copy the directories and contents across to d:\xmage_images\FACE
  1. You should have a file after copying the directories and contents called: d:\xmage_images\FACE\ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg
D:\perl_programs\modo_2021>dir "d:\xmage_images\FACE\ZNR\Throne of Makindi.jpg"
 Directory of d:\xmage_images\FACE\ZNR

30/07/2021  09:28            18,133 Throne of Makindi.jpg

STEP 99) You have to make the directories as well (so you can run these commands when you're in the directory with get_mtgo_artids.pl as well)
