Collectible Card Game Headquarters

New version: lots of new cards, lots of new features!

Fixes/Features:

- Merged rares' quest changes code (if I understand correctly, AI opponents encountered are divided between easy, medium and hard), and included Chris' latest quest files.
- Fixed lands with tap abilities being able to use mana to pay for those abilities (Mikokoro, Center of the Sea, Kher Keep, Pendelhaven, etc.).
- Added different images for basic lands (change them to your favorites in card-pictures.txt).
- Fixed some problem with fetching Rebels/Mercenaries if cancel is pressed.
- Fixed Hush Cycling.
- Fixed Cover of Darkness.
- Fixed Guardian of Cloverdell AI lifegain?
- Lightning Helix cast by the AI should not cause crashes anymore.
- Fixed Stalker Hag.
- Added "Changeling" keyword (only works on creatures for now though I think?), and fixed existing cards that were supposed to have Changeling, thank you Chris for pointing them out.
- Added "Deathtouch" keyword (only tested this for a bit).
- Added "Protection from creatures" keyword (haven't tested this a lot either).
- Fixed Demonic Tutor (can only cast it during your own turn now).
- Fixed display of -1/-1 counters (it would show a negative number).
- Fixed Lockjaw Snapper.
- Fixed some issues with the AI targeting side of Oblivion Ring.
- AI Guiltfeeder should attack now.
- Fixed crash with Aether Vial for AI... however, turns out the thing is still broken, for now, don't put this card in any AI decks.
- Fixed Zur the Enchanter, will only be able to get enchantments with manacost 3 or less.
- Vampiric creatures should not receive +1/+1 counters as they're hitting the graveyard anymore.
- Fixed a crash with Faceless Butcher when its target is null, and the AI shouldn't play it when there's no targetable creatures in play...

Very cool, thanks again fellows. What is the total card number now? I think that's a good number to announce with each new release.

Sweet! Thanks Dennis!
Wirewood Lodge. WOOHOO! That one will make my elf decks even nastier!

1606 cards total.

Plus a number of bug fixes and feature additions.

Rares, Dennis, Rob and jpb have done a wonderful job. There was also a couple of coders who stepped in and contributed there own code but I can not remember their names at this time.

Yes, this new version of Forge contains the newest update to the quest files.

There are now a total of 66 decks:

11 easy
14 medium
41 hard

Chris pointed out I missed some stuff:

- card pic URL for Steely Resolve ( steely_resolve.jpg http://www.wizards.com/global/images/ma ... esolve.jpg).
- latest version of the set editor rares posted (check attachment).
- original rarities (check attachment).

Very, very nice Dennis. I think I'll really love deathtouch, pow!

"Added different images for basic lands (change them to your favorites in card-pictures.txt)." Very nice also, I'm glad that I checked before I tried adding this, thanks again.

I like the different images for basic lands. I visited the http://www.magickartenmarkt.de site and set the filter to lands. I found a number of interesting land images. Some sets come with 4 images per set and I found that it was easy to choose a set of pictures that I could enjoy.

I also like these pictures Plains and Island which I posted on my blog and this is a direct link to the picture.

Cool, glad you guys like it! By the way, I can increase the number of different images per basic land if you like (currently it has four).
I think allowing different selection of different land images in the deck editor (and preserve this selection) would be tricky to implement, but I'll give it a shot some time.

Being able to add several versions of lands is nice. I am happy with 4 for now.
If I want different images, I just grab/swap them from that german website mentioned a few posts up.
(this forum desperately needs the "tumbs up" smiley)

I didn't realize that http://www.magickartenmarkt.de let you view the images of the lands by just moving the mouse to the small picture to the left of the card, very cool. You can also find more lands by changing the "Seltenheit" option to "Special".

I'm pretty rusty on my German. (That was a joke because I never knew German, ha.)

I noticed in the code for the Zuberas, that you "fixed Changeling" by modifying the code from just using getType("Type") to also checking getKeyword("Changeling"). It works to be sure, but I think you should've modified the Card object's getType method to do the check, then there would be less of a chance of missing the check for future type-based effects.

Rob,

Ah believe me, I've thought about that too... but how? Since getType() returns an arraylist of strings (which represent the types), and Changeling is a keyword, what would I check for in getType()? I think this check I would have to do in the contains() function I call on getType()...

Anyway, I did in fact do a similar check for this in CardList.java (so for things like cardlist = cardlist.getType("Goblin"); it would also keep creatures with Changeling in that list).

Code: Select all

 public CardList getType(String cardType)
    {
   CardList c = new CardList();
        Card card;
   for(int i = 0; i < size(); i++)
   {
          card = getCard(i);
       if(card.getType().contains(cardType) ||
               /*(cardType.equals("Sliver") &&  card.isCreature() && card.getType().contains("Shapeshifter")*/
             ( card.isCreature() && !cardType.equals("Legendary") && !cardType.equals("Planeswalker") && card.getKeyword().contains("Changeling") ) )//changelings, see Lorwyn FAQ
      c.add(getCard(i));
   }
   return c;
    }//getType()

However, when calling getType() on a Card object, I'm not sure this is possible, unless I were to somehow override the contains() method.
