I can't save a new deck

Hi, new user from France and old player of the original MicroProse's game.

I've downloaded ManaLink 3.0 and installed it on my Windows 7 64 bit computer,
when using Magic.exe I can play duels and watch the cards on the deckbuilder but when creating a new deck it doesn't saves and shows this error message :
There was an error opening ***.dck. The deck has not been saved.


What could be the problem ? did I missed something during installation ?

Thanks in advance for your help, it's always fun to play with new cards.

Hi Mirrodin26, welcome to Manalink 3.0.

I don't remember seeing this error before. Please attach the deck you want to save and make a list of all files in the main file of the program to see if something is missing.
At first glance this seems more of an issue with something getting corrupted while downloading.
Also if you have installed this in C/program files don't do that it could cause issues.
Which update have you installed?

Thanks for your reply, I've installed the last version available on the site on C:\user\magic\manalink\
But I've found that the folder C:\user\magic\ had read only attribute and no modification allowed, after modifying the parameters on Windows I can now create, save decks and play with my decks.
Also seen some missing cards (Mycosynth Lattice, Myr Matrix, Fold into Aether...) and sometimes get a "bad parameter" bug which I'll report on the dedicated forum.

Glad to know you fixed your issue and please do report bugs you find and read post on how to post bugs, thanks.
About cards missing you can always ask in dedicated top 10 wishlist for cards you want and if they can be made in Manalink 3.0 we will try to fulfill your requests. For now I have enabled and fixed Myr Matrix which was coded but was never put in updates.
