Phylo for MSE
I've 'finished' the Magic Set Editor plugin for Phylo, and added all the cards to date. Cards can be exported as images, and at some point the whole thing will be exportable to Lackey.
Download MSE from: http://magicseteditor.sourceforge.net/download
(For PC or Mac)
Download the Phylo plugin from: http://www.werepenguin.com/phylo/phylo-mse.zip (250kb)
(unzip it to c:\program files\magic set editor 2\data\)
The set I have is at http://www.werepenguin.com/phylo/currentset.mse-set (1 MB)
The plugin requires the Verdana and Goudy Old Style Italics fonts. Both should be easily available, although I noticed Windows 7 didn't come with the latter (and I can change them).
---
Ideally I would:
- increase the size of the border to exactly 10 pixels
- fix the script which should remove the numbers from the foodchain label
- use slightly faded versions of terrain images
- centre some uncentred labels
- find the font used for the numbering and adjust accordingly
- and the only large bug, find some way to add the hex transparency
But it works perfectly fine without any of those fixes.

Re: Phylo for MSE
I've been debugging the MSE to Lackey converter. In the process I had to change the name of one of the variables. What this means in practice is that I've replaced both of the files I linked to above: please download and replace any other version you might have.
The good news is, with the converter done the bulk of the work for putting it on Lackey is done so you can expect to be able to playtest online within a week.
(Also, with some help I fixed the foodchain label; and I learned I can't get the colour transparency working in MSE. There's no reason why I can't have a coloured background though - if someone can send me a list of a dozen hex colours used I could experiment. Finally, I picked one of the suggested cardbacks to use, even if it's not the final one.)
