Basically you need to make a change to your Windows installation to allow renaming of file extensions...

I think your game-box.xml file's first line should be the same as your .zts file's first line:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>

That sounds strange - I know of no issue where the size of the mask would cause such an error, but you do need to ensure that the mask file is exactly the same size as the graphics file it is associated with.

Currently the only way to do it is to lay your hand (one by one) on the "table" for inspection.

No not yet...

Yes, but you also need to use "face-left", "face-top" (and so on) rather than "front-left", "front-top"...

Well done! As for your question about card backs - yes it couldn't be easier. Here's a snippet of code from my Borodino 20 module that does just that: <counter-sheet name="Cards" front-image-file="Borodino 20 Cards.png" front-mask-file="cards-mask.png" front-resolution=...

Well apologies for my impatience (I'd had a hard week at work) :wink: And thanks to Gary for reminding us of his very useful utility. It just goes to show that people will chip in and help out whenever they have the time :D I was simply trying to make the point that to get the most out of ZT (or any...

Seriously (and please don't take this the wrong way) if you can't work out the counter coordinates, then game box building is not for you...

I use a program called "Irfanview". It's great (and free):

While it's undoubtedly true that the best way to understand how to build game boxes is to examine ones already created, you can't always be sure that they incorporate the best methods :wink: I'm happy (and others too) to try and help out if you have a specific problem, but unfortunately until ZT v2....

Well OK :wink: Make these changes (in red) to start: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?> <game-box name="Talisman" description="Talisman Revised 4th Edition" copyright=" Games Workshop Limited 2008" startup-scenario="here.zts"> <...

No, it won't (I've just had a look at the rest of your code). You've made a couple of basic errors and appear to have some unnecessary duplication. I suggest you read the instructions again and look at a few more existing game boxes to work out where you're going wrong. Failing that, I think you'll ...

After this line in your scenario file:

<layout board="board-Talisman" />

You need to add this line:

<layout board="Characters" />

Regards, Bill.

I agree that it's not ideal, but you can move a stack of "cards" by pressing "Cntrl" and selecting the bottom one in the stack...
