Forge Beta: 03-19-2016 ver 1.5.50
15661 cards in total.
Missing SOI Cards

Release Notes
-------------
- Shadows over Innistrad is out! We have all but 4 of the cards, but there's still some residual bugs since our development is in a bit of a lull right now. Even still we wanted to make sure we got this out to you since everyone gets excited during this time of year. Feel free to report as usual. We'll try to get everything fixed for the next release.
- Many bug fixes and AI improvements! Most of them came from you reporting them. Thanks!
- If you haven't checked it out yet, Planar Conquest made it's first appearance on the Android platform. It's looking pretty solid so far. So kudos to all the development work (both coding-wise and to the Plane builders)
------------
Known Issues
------------
- Oath of the Gatewatch and Commander 2015 -
Forge now includes many new cards. It may take a few days/weeks before these new card pictures become available for downloading via the "Download LQ Card Pictures" button. The LQ set pictures tend to take a few more weeks/months to process before they become available for downloading via the "Download LQ Set Pictures" button. Please be patient. The Forge devs are not involved in maintaining the servers that house these pictures.
There is a known issue with Kodama of the Center Tree: its Soulshift X ability used to crash Forge, and until a proper fix can be implemented, a temporary fix was introduced which prevents the crash but makes the Soulshift X ability work incorrectly in certain cases (in particular, it doesn't work correctly with mass removal, and it may have issues when Kodama of the Center Tree is controlled by someone else other than its owner). In the basic cases (such as Kodama of the Center Tree being destroyed in combat or with a direct damage spell) should work correctly. Hopefully one of the developers will be able to implement a better and proper fix for this card soon.
There is a known issue with the cost reduction for cards that have color-locked X in their mana cost (e.g. Drain Life, Soul Burn). Cost reduction will not apply correctly to these cards if the amount by which the cost is reduced is greater than the amount of colorless mana in the mana cost specified on the card (e.g. 1 for Drain Life, 2 for Soul Burn). Fixing this issue likely requires rewriting the way announced color-locked X is interpreted and paid (most likely it has to be represented with colorless mana shards but still locked to the colors required by the card).
Several people have noticed that the cards displayed on the battlefield will fail to be displayed when the number of cards on the battlefield increases. Maximizing the human panel can help to re-display the cards.
Some time was spent turning the static ETB triggers into the proper ETB replacement effects they should be, mainly to interact correctly with each other. This work is not yet finished. As a result there is currently some inconsistencies with "Enters the battlefield with counters" (Not incredibly noticeable).
A recent contribution to the code base should fix some of the bugs that people noticed with cloning type abilities. At this time there is one remaining issue that we hope will be addressed in the near future:
Copies of cards that setup Zone Change triggers via addComesIntoPlayCommand and addLeavesPlayCommand will not function correctly.

Forge Archive Instructions
----------------------------
The Forge archive includes a readme.txt file and we ask that you spend a few minutes reading this file as it contains some information that may prove useful. We do tend to update this file at times and you should quickly read this file and look for new information for each and every new release. Thank you.
The archive format used for the Forge distribution is ".tar.bz2". There are utilities for Windows, Mac OS and the various *nix's that can be used to extract/decompress these ".tar.bz2" archives. We recommend that you extract/decompress the Forge archive into a new and unused folder.
Some people use the Windows application 7zip. This utility can be found at http://www.7-zip.org/download.html. Mac users can double click on the archive and the application Archive Utility will launch and extract the archive. Mac users do not need to download a separate utility.
Once the Forge archive has been decompressed you should then be able to launch Forge by using the included launcher. Launching Forge by double clicking on the forge jar file in the past caused a java heap space error. Forge's memory requirements have increased over time and the launchers increase the java heap space available to Forge. Currently you can launch Forge by double clicking on the forge jar file without a java heap space error but this is likely to change as we add in more sounds, icons, etc.
(Unfortunately, until our Release Manager who owns a Mac is back, the Mac application of Forge can not be distributed. Hopefully it'll be back sooner rather than later.)
- The Mac OS application version -
We can now package Forge as a Mac OS application. You can double click the Forge.app icon to launch the forge application on your Apple computer running Mac OS. This application will automatically increase the java heap space memory for you as it launches. This version does not require the forge.command file and it does not need to start the Terminal application as part of the start up process.
The Mac OS X app version apparently requires the Mavericks OS and is not compatible with earlier OS X versions. People with earlier OS X versions should use the Windows and Linux version and launch forge on their Mac by double clicking on the included "forge.command" file.

Well done. Awesome release 
On a sidenote, I've been having trouble adding token images. I see they are named in a strange way (ex: b_0_1_insect.jpg)
I've collected several tokens and I would like to know how should I add them.
Thank you.

The AI somehow manages to target no one with Goblin Lyre, causing it to fizzle.

SOI bug report: after my Skin Invasion transforms into Skin Shedder, I can't select Skin Shedder to attack or block. However, if I do an alpha strike with it on the board, it joins in the attack.

Even if you have your own tokens, this should give you enough information about how to name them.

Yep, that actually got fixed not too long after the release. It wasn't grabbing the right "state" of the card, so it's in an awkward state on the battlefield.Zirbert wrote:SOI bug report: after my Skin Invasion transforms into Skin Shedder, I can't select Skin Shedder to attack or block.

Description: The crash occurs when Forge is loading, during the "Opening main window..." bit.
I changed the "Title=" part of a quest deck that I was working on, then restarted Forge. The quest happens to be in the three duels currently offered (which is why I saw that I had made a mistake in the deck's title, which why I went to fix it). After a couple more tries I got Forge to load again.

- IndexOutOfBoundsException | Open
Yes. I put it in a quest deck to see how the AI would handle it. I took it out, of course. Still, the AI should not be able to make an illegal play, and it's not as if there was any actual choice involved.friarsol wrote:Isn't this card listed as Remove from AI decks?Xyx wrote:The AI somehow manages to target no one with Goblin Lyre, causing it to fizzle.

The Gitrog Monster's card-drawing ability sometimes fails to trigger when no other abilities would be below it on the stack, especially when a a cost is involved (i.e. discarding at EOT, cycling, saccing for one of Lake of the Dead's abilities).

Nice work, but the memory leak (at least on PC and Linux) still exists. After a couple of games, the memory consumption of forge's process goes through the roof and the game gets incredibly slow. I think this happens faster, the more creatures are present in the games. This would not mean, it does not happen at all if there are no creatures at all.
I can not tell when this exactly started but I think this exists for at least one year. Is there maybe a way to track the patch down, that caused this?

SOI bug: when I activate the second ability (scry) on Brain in a Jar, it doesn't matter how many counters I remove, it always scrys for 0 (no effect).

SOI bug: Weirding Wood works correctly, giving two mana of the chosen color when I tap the enchanted land for the ability, but the prompt is worded incorrectly. The popup choices are to tap the land as usual for its normal color, or to tap it for one mana of any color (not two mana of any one color). There's just an error in the SpellDescription$ promp, no doubt left over from copy-and-pasting from a similar card. Here's a corrected version of the script:
- Code: Select all
