Xyz's and Cardmaker Redesign

[Night]

Yes, the long awaited Xyz's are finally going to be implemented into the cardmaker. It has also been decided that while we've got the support of YCMaker a complete redesign of every template in the cardmaker would be ideal. Besides the change in aesthetic design, YCMaker stated the cardmaker will be re-written to have better text effects, other changes in regards to both the writing and differences in aesthetics are still being conceptualized as we are still in the early planning stages. I'll try my best to update the public with any info I come across pertaining to the former, and will almost surely produce updates regarding the actual design so that the community can play a part in the design of the templates. 

 

As for who will be designing the templates, I've decided to lead a small team of capable designers to ensure quality and uniformity are prioritized. As far as specifics on the designers, it's still yet to be decided, I've got two in mind but I'm still very much open to the possibility of variation. For more information pertaining to the actual design process or to apply for a position on the team, see this thread.

This is so exciting! Just applied ^_^

 

Maybe we will finally get Justified text. whoooopeeee

[OmegaWave]

If the cardmaker is being rewritten, does that mean it could become possible to use bulletpoints for the card effects finally instead of "-"?

Can we add more numbers then just 4 digits in ATK and DEF?

Since no actual card in the game has stats like that, the answer is most likely no.

[Synchronized]

This is actually exciting news.  I'm shocked.

[DragonDust]

Oh.... I was going from the anime. .__. Oh well. I'm really excited!!

*Blinks eyes repeatedly in disbelief*

 

My mind is blown. Or what was left of it.

[DragonDust]

Xyz Xyz~ We're getting Xyz~

The anime doesn't have BASE numbers over 5000.  Any monster can have 5 or more digits for ATK or DEF if raised (by a card effect) to be above 9999.  Obvious example would be Five God Dragon equipped with Megamorph would have 10000 ATK, but that's not its printed Original ATK (which is 5000).  There's no such thing as a printed original ATK/DEF at any more than 5000 (let alone 9999, let alone 5 or more digits).

 

 

So unless we're missing some very obscure occurrence from Doma Arc or something (which I hope you mention in that case), it didn't happen as Original Stat.

[Aix]

Yes, but it'll be fun to have a monster with 10000 ATK.

The card maker was designed to make realistic cards. There's no point for a realistic card maker to include the ability to exceed the four digit value for ATK and DEF, if the real cards themselves have yet to do so. You don't like it, you can go and use an alternative card creator.

[DragonDust]

*Twirl twirl* What about the monster Dartz summoned in the 4_th Season~? *Twirl twirl*

[◇ Void ◇]

That serpent? It used the infinity symbol. Does not count in this case.

 

And that also goes for the Knight of Destiny that Yugi used to slay it.

[DragonDust]

*Twirl twirl* No the one before that~ *Twirl twirl*

[宇佐見 蓮子@C94]

How are you not tired of spinning yet?

 

I have to say, I'm really excited for all these new changes YCMaker is finally going to implement. I wish the best of luck to 'Night and his crack team of visual artists. 

 

Hurray for actual change!

[DragonDust]

*Twirl twirl* So am I~ *Twirl twirl* And I can't help it~ *Twirl twirl* I'm a Kirlia~ *Twirl twirl*

[Aix]

It will also give YCMaker more income as more people will be coming to this site instead of Yugico/Magic Set Editor/Photoshop and etc. -_-

But doing everything on this site will be really convenient.

 

Also, can we get a "Show Everyone The Cards You Made" button beside the "Save" button and "Buy Yugioh Cards" button and leads to the Realistic Cards Forum so people notice the forums more? After all, we have all those members who only make cards and many of them probably don't even know the existence of the forum.

Princess stop spamming. This is a News update, not a chat room.

Orichalcos Shunoros?

 

Shunoros has ? ATK, its ATK is changed to 20,000 by its own effect per the effect of Kyutora.  Its printed ATK is ? (as in undetermined until decided by the conditions of the card itself).

 

 

This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except with "Orichalcos Kyutora". This card's original ATK is equal to the total amount of Battle Damage reduced to 0 by the effect of the "Orichalcos Kyutora" that Summoned this card. After damage calculation, if this card battled an opponent's monster, it loses ATK equal to either that Attack Position monster's ATK or that Defense Position monster's DEF, depending on its battle position. When this card is destroyed while its ATK is 0 and you have 10000 or more Life Points, pay all of your Life Points and discard all cards in your hand to Special Summon 1 "Divine Serpent" from your hand or Deck.

 

 

4-digit stat is the normal and likely to never changed and there still has never been even a single occurrence of a monster having a printed ATK/DEF with even more than 5000, let alone over 9999.  Any time a monster comes out with higher, it's a monster with ? or 0. 

 

Therefore, not happening here and there should be no expectation once-so-ever of that happens with any updates to YCMaker.

Shinobi, stop being so tight and enjoy the fact that we're  finally getting Xyz's ^^. Also that the cardmaker isn't completely ignoring this site. If I said that in any way that offended you then sorry before hand.

I don't use the YCMaker in the first place as I have always had my own self-made template that includes Xyz's (updated as recently as 2011 and I even included proper Dark Synchros in it, even if I never use that option), so I don't care at all personally about there being Xyz on YCMaker or not.  It's nice that other people will have it available since (and nice they will stop complaining to people who will actually be doing all the work) and I suppose it will be nice for YCM itself to have the traffic kept within instead of being dragged from YugiCo or wherever. 

 

Regardless, most of this news doesn't even affect me in any way, I'll be more interested in "Duel Portal" news (which I think ironically has had Xyz's for a while now, funny that).

 

 

 

I also don't see how I'm being uptight just discussing the 5-digit stat issue, I really didn't even say anything about the Xyz part of the news (for the forementioned reason).  I wouldn't have posted at all except for wondering why someone would think 5-digits on a card would be featured at all in an update.
