ACE SPEC cards (40 printings) now match PTCG Live's strength and texture. The old recipe drew diamond outlines that reached only about 0.6× of the game's strength. The game's ACE SPEC foil is a fine vertical-dash texture that flares the art toward white.

What changes

  • ace-spec rebuilt on FOILKIT_COMPOSITE (the hook added in tinsel-ii rebuilt as the modern client's tinsel film #12):
    • a soft 45° diamond lattice, pixelated onto a fine 192-cell grid whose columns alternate between bright and dim;
    • the lattice is coloured through a ramp, then desaturated;
    • inside the plate, the art is colour-dodged by it after a sweeping white band is overlaid into it.
  • The stripes and the ramp are our own analytic shapes, built to the measured statistics.
  • There is no canon file, so no canon changes. The old values and measurements are in DECISIONS.md.

Measured (local reference render of 3 SV ACE SPECs; each card's own art, plate and etch on both sides; statistics only)
