Hello,
So I made a Cockatrice patch for the new Final Fantasy TCG. My brother and I have been playing online now for a couple weeks and Cockatrice's UI is very well suited to the game.
To add the patch, just go to Card Database -> Add Custom Sets/Cards and load the FFTCG_Opus1.xml file, wait for it to be added, then close Cockatrice and re-open it. The cards should now be in the database. To get the pictures to work, take the OP1 folder and copy it to C:\Users\YOUR_NAME_HERE\AppData\Local\Cockatrice\Cockatrice\pics\downloadedPics\
If anyone wants to play on Cockatrice, you can add me as a friend and message me when I'm online, my player name is gortikus. I'm not super competitive at this game yet but I'm really liking it so far.
I've also made a Python script to generate sealed deck pools (9 booster packs), and save it as a deck file. You will need Python 2.7 in order to run the script, and it will create a ff_sealed.mwDeck file in the same directory as the .py file. Just load that into Cockatrice and you can make a deck with your pool of cards.
As for the sealed pools, I went with the information I could find on rarity distribution which was 7 commons, 3 rares, 1 hero or legendary (4:1 hero/legendary ratio), and 1 foil of any rarity. I know it's possible to get foils that are from the starter decks but I haven't added that feature yet because I was unsure of the frequency that they appear in packs.
So, if you're interested, here are links to the files:
Cockatrice Patch
Sealed pool generator (Python script)
I'm also working on a web app to do online drafts (similar to www.dr4ft.com) and sealed online.
Just thought I'd share my work to help the community. It'd be cool if we could build a FFTCG community on Cockatrice.
Cheers!
