Has anyone ever made the HQ cards in a 2.5" x 3.5" format?

Wanted to see if they were out there before diving into doing it myself.

That's poker size, which is just barely a mm less wide on the side and 1 mm shorter on the top (closest match in a standard size) than the remake cards (the classic cards for the NA HeroQuest are just 1 mm shorter on the top than US Game Card size). I'm fairly certain people on these forums have.

Thats the hope. If its already out there it would save me a ton of time which would be awesome.

If not, I'll figure it out and make em myself and post here when its done.

I did

It's just my version, but as I made myself a little software which outputs several formats, I did them all.

Not sure that I published them all, so tell me if you find something missing

Here, the exact file is this one

Thanks, I snagged a copy. It looks like it has a bunch of custom stuff in there also. I noticed there were no card backs Do you not use them?

The backs are not used by my little software;
so I often forget to add them into the repositories.

Those are enlarged and cleaned versions of the US backs, I usually cut them as I need them or add the EU frame for EU cards on top.

Do you have those?

Hi, check my custom adaptations to NA card backs style in this thread, I think it is what you are looking for...

Hispa, these could totally work, but I cant seem to download them from the gallery. giving me an error message. Do you have these in a dropbox or google docs at all?

Also, by chance do you know what the file dimensions are for your images?

I gave them the generic chaos spell background. I did not prepare supersized versions of these. You need left and right about an eighth of an inch additional picture, freely invented for poker card size, and the rest of the image needs to be resized, denoised and sharpened.

If you make them, be sure to share, like that me too, I profit from this exchange.
