ManaLink Updates & Info

[HarryPitfall]

But this mean... that I lost my bird of paradise.... Rest in peace QuickClaw in all your 17 levels of grandeur! - A moment of silence please...

Ok, I can release a pack ready to rumble about that manalinkex.asm, with yasm.exe, gcc.exe and ld.exe, the only needed files to compiled the code.
Also, I'm playing a bit with macros...
I'll release after I manage to code at least 2 real cards using direct assembler in that way (will be sufficient to prove that is effective!)

[jatill]

Hurray, I've finally made Voltaic Key, on my third attempt. (It helps that my knowledge of this program has quadrupled between attempts)

I'll patch this in this weekend once Harry is done playing with the new asm stuff.

[HarryPitfall]

You can release anytime, the coded dll is something that only comes to game in about 1 or 2 weeks...

The only new is that editor assembler... i'm using now 2 types of dissassembler, one of then make the code almost like olly...

Ok guys, please remember to post the next update release as a new topic and I will sticky it and remove the ManaLink Update: 0902.26 one from sticky status, keeping it easy for our members to find the latest update.

So for example, whoever posts the next update, say Jatill does tomorrow, please title the topic as:

ManaLink Update: 0902.28

I will then sticky it and remove the older one from sticky status.

And please, don't post ANY update links here in this Topic. I want this to stay as a discussion thread for all you guys.

It's real important to keep things organized, so I need you guys to please do it this way or I will have to create a new topic and copy and paste the info there, deleting the originating post. My job is to keep this place as organized as possible, something I really want to do to make finding things easy for everyone.

Thanks for your patience and understanding on this!

[HarryPitfall]

Hey Jatill... after you next release, I'll code the shocklands... since people already did it and it's 'lost', so, it's time to code it officially... ok?

[mathusalem]

Well harry if you could be so kind as to add Solkanar as well ? you made it sound so easy....

[HarryPitfall]

ok, so, since now he have code size a lot... how about just make the angels feather/demon horn/dragon claw/etc cycle? they are like the old ones, just don't have the cost... (play spell, trigger, click and gain life if you want...)

With demon horn coded.... solkana's is a piece of cake... just a legendary swampwalker... correct?

So, after next jatill update, I'll code these things... oh... i learn to make art correct too, did you notice?

[mathusalem]

I did notice for the art yes

OK, deal for the feather, horn etc...

you really don't like old cards, do you ?

[jatill]

Harry-
Why'd you have to promise him Sol Kanar? I was going to make him fill out the shock lands / signets / karoos in exchange You and me should be doing to hard cards and learning. Less experienced people should to the lego work, as Mathu puts it.

If you end up doing Sol Kanar, make it so I don't have to click it. Otherwise it's just an approximation

[HarryPitfall]

If I remember well... the dragon claw/angel feather/etc is 'you may gain 1 life', so, you need to click it... i already coded it (the generic proc, very easy, really very easy - just some nops on the original gain 1 life procedure... LOL).

They are may, sol kanar is not. Not a big deal, but...

> The jump table uses jump near, this make jumps with 5 bytes instead 2 or 5 bytes (dependent of how far the code label is)

Thanks for fixing that, as I must have overlooked it and it would be bad if the jumps would change from short to near after a couple of coded cards.

You should have been quicker to answer
