Flat Tokens Asset Pack

This unofficial TaleSpire token pack includes tokens for making flat (card-board like) standing tokens in a number of styles. Includes a tranparent style, glass style and opaque style with single sided and double sided images. As a bonus, the pack also includes a coin token. The coin token can be turned over but cannot (at this time) be randomly tossed (flipped).

Thanks to simsete for the custom transparency shader.

This plugin, like all others, is free but if you want to donate, use: http://LordAshes.ca/TalespireDonate/Donate.php

Usage

All of the tokes are appear in the Creature categroy of the library under the group name Tokens. It should be noted that while all the tokens appear under the Creature category, most of them are implemented as Effects in order to be able to utilize transparency. The following tokens are available:

Note 1: Images ignoire a small amount of border around the edges of the image.
        Avoid making the contents of the image do to the very edges of the canvas.
Note 2: Side by side uses the left half of the image for the front image and the right half for the back.
Note 3: The opaque options implement the token as a Creature and thus the token supports the hide function.
        Non-opaque options implement the token as a Effect and thus do not support the hide function.

The coin can be turned over using EAR Animations (Default LALT+1 and LALT+2) or flipped using LALT+~ Note that for LALT+1 and LALT+2, if the coin is already in that state, nothing will happen.

Custom Token Texture

Single sided tokens use the entire image (minus a small frame around the edges) for both the front and back of the token. As such no UV template is necessary to create such tokens.

Double sided tokens use the left half of the image for the front of the token and the right half of the image for the back (minus a small frame around the edges of the image). As such no UV template is needed to create such tokens.

The Coin token, on the other hand, has a specific location for the front face, back face and the sides. A UV template is provided with this plugin in the CustomData/Images folder.

Limitations

Currently the tokens are very sensitive to light. When viewed in the correct light they will produce good colors. When viewed less ideal light conditions, the colors will be darked with the content being completely black when the token is not getting any light. Similarly the glass tokens will be (visible but) clear when viewed with good lighting conditions and less clear when viewed under other lighting conditions.
