You can't move cards from one quality classification to another within Card
Vault. So.....
The solution is to export the cards to XML, do a text conversion on that
file, and then bring the data back into CV. Where it gets complicated is if
you only want to do this to a PORTION of your entire inventory. I'll assume
that you want to process the entire inventory. If that's not the case, let
me know and I'll outline how to do this for a portion of the inventory.
1. MAKE A BACKUP! The steps I'm going to outline will be physically
changing (read: destroying) your existing inventory. So save a backup just
in case things go horribly wrong. The file you need to save is named
"inv.cvz" and will be found in the folder where the game system data files
reside. For example, if you are working with LotR and CV was installed in
the default location, the file will be "C:\CardVault\data\inv.cvz".
2. Launch CV and go into the inventory manager for the game system.
3. Click on the "Tools" button.
4. Select the "Save to XML" option, then specify the file to create via the
"Browse" button. Make sure to check the 3 options for what to include, but
do NOT check the "Restrict Output" option.
5. Click on the "Save XML" button to generate the XML file.
6. Open the XML file you generated within a text editor.
7. Do a global search and replace from [quality="unknown"] to
[quality="mint"]. Then save the changes.
8. Click on the "Tools" button again.
9. Select the "Reset Inventory to Empty" option, then click the "Reset"
button at the bottom. WARNING! This will DELETE your current inventory. You
DID save a backup, right? Just checking.
10. Click on the "Tools" button one more time. Third time's a charm, right?
11. This time, select the "Load from XML" option, and specify the same file
you just created and modified as the file to be loaded.
12. Click the "Load XML" button and your modified inventory contents should
now be loaded.
Hope this helps,
Rob
