The gamebox can be downloaded
here . I don't know why it's not working - maybe you will know what's wrong. Here's a code from game-box.xml:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<game-box
name="Untitled proto"
description="Untitled proto"
copyright="© Artur 'samur' Roszczyk"
startup-scenario="At_Start_Use.ztg">
<map name="The Board" image-file="plansza.jpg" resolution="300 dpi" />
<counter-sheet name="Pieces" front-image-file="elementy.jpg" front-resolution="300 dpi"
front-mask-file="elementy_mask.png">
<counter-section columns="1"
front-left="19" front-top="22" front-right="268" front-bottom="244" supply="100" shadow="20" />
<counter-section columns="1" rows="4"
front-left="307" front-top="23" front-right="496" front-bottom="277" supply="1" shadow="20" />
<counter-section columns="1" rows="2"
front-left="778" front-top="149" front-right="901" front-bottom="406" supply="100" shadow="20" />
<counter-section columns="1" rows="2"
front-left="778" front-top="149" front-right="901" front-bottom="406" supply="100" shadow="20" />
<counter-section columns="4"
front-left="83" front-top="304" front-right="686" front-bottom="427" supply="100" shadow="20" />
<counter-section columns="2" rows="1"
front-left="565" front-top="19" front-right="769" front-bottom="121"
back-left="881" back-top="22" back-right="980" back-bottom="124" supply="100" shadow="20" />
<counter-section columns="2" rows="1"
front-left="565" front-top="133" front-right="769" front-bottom="236"
back-left="881" back-top="22" back-right="980" back-bottom="124" supply="100" shadow="20" />
<counter-section columns="1"
front-left="778" front-top="22" front-right="871" front-bottom="125"
back-left="881" back-top="22" back-right="980" back-bottom="124" supply="100" shadow="20" />
</counter-sheet>
</game-box>
I also added counter-section type="TwoSided", but that's not working too. So what did I do wrong here?
Games... Possible biggest invention?

You need to provide a back-image file...

Hmm so it's working different than cards? I had something like this in a gamebox, that I made before:
Code: Select all
<counter-sheet name="Spanish Cards" front-image-file="spanish_cards2.jpg" front-resolution="300 dpi" front-mask-file="spanish_cards2_mask.png">
<card-section rows="1" columns="3"
face-left="81" face-top="63" face-right="3154" face-bottom="1450"
back-left="2160" back-top="4340" back-right="3145" back-bottom="5727" supply="1" />
<card-section rows="1" columns="3"
face-left="81" face-top="1495" face-right="3154" face-bottom="2890"
back-left="2160" back-top="4340" back-right="3145" back-bottom="5727" supply="1" />
<card-section rows="1" columns="3"
face-left="81" face-top="2918" face-right="3145" face-bottom="4313"
back-left="2160" back-top="4340" back-right="3145" back-bottom="5727" supply="1" />
<card-section rows="1" columns="3"
face-left="81" face-top="4331" face-right="3145" face-bottom="5727"
back-left="2160" back-top="4340" back-right="3145" back-bottom="5727" supply="1" />
</counter-sheet>
And it was working OK. And I didn't include any back-image file, because I had back of the card in the same file as all of the cards. I'm trying to do the same here. I still don't understand why I have to include back-image file... I would understand if every counter would have different backs, but here every disc will have the same back side..

Yes, card-section and counter-section have different requirements. I don't think there's currently any way round it...

Si pones columnas, tienes que poner también filas, se te olvido en 3 lineas de codigo, por eso no te va.
Sustituye en las lineas que te puse lo siguiente
rows="X" la letra X por un numero o borra toda la linea de código de columnas y filas "columns="1" rows="X"

If you want to email your counter scans to me, I'll upload them to my server and then you could use this tool to get your x,y coordinates:
