Collectible Card Game Headquarters

If I had the app and access to internet connection on my phone and turned on my phone, a tab on Google Chrome would appear claiming that I got viruses from visiting "adult sites". I deleted Forge, and sure enough, the pop-ups stopped. Please fix this if you can- this used to not happen with Forge, and I REALLY love this app.

First I've heard of anything like that. What version did you see this with? I will certainly investigate.

Two issues:

First, I've been having a lot of trouble downloading updated card pictures. Specifically, it takes forever to scan existing cards; this may be because my SD card is slow, but it'd be nice if there was a way to do it more quickly somehow or to store a database of what cards it already has images for. Worse, my phone goes to sleep if I wait too long, ending the check so I have to manually keep it awake (it stays awake once it begins the download, but not while checking what cards it needs to download.) Even when it downloads, it seems to be skipping everything new -- it skipped over 1400 cards, and refuses to download the last set in Theros or anything after that.

Second, when I start a quest and choose 'custom format', tapping 'define custom format' doesn't do anything. I don't seem to be able to define custom formats no matter what I do.

I have an error whenever I try and load my quest mode but the site won't let me post the error (says it's too spammy for a new user) is there anyone I can PM the error message to?

Request for update to r30369 for the c15 cards. Normally wouldn't ask but font think there is going to be a win release for a while. Thanks!!

I just released 1.5.48.003, which includes all scripted cards from Commander 2015. To complement the new cards, I've also gone ahead and implemented the requested Tiny Leaders format on the app. Tiny Leaders is a subset of the Commander format that restricts the available card pool to cards with CMC 3 or less and has its own ban list. I've even made it so when creating/editing Tiny Leaders decks, it restricts the catalog to only valid CMC 3 or less cards (something I eventually hope to do for the desktop app as well).

This release also includes the requested fix to prevent Forge images from appearing in the Android Gallery by creating a ".nomedia" file in the Forge directory.

Let me know if you have any issues with the Tiny Leaders format or still encounter Forge images showing up in the Gallery after taking this update.

Thanks and enjoy.

Hello Dan!

Thanks for this update! I really appreciate your efforts on making this the greatest software to play MtG!
Trying out the new Tiny Leaders format, here is some feedback:

- Previously I played by using commander decks with 50 cards (49+Commander), by disabling Deck Conformance on Settings and setting life to 25 (dev mode) when I enable Deck Conformance, none of my decks with valid 49 cards plus a commander are recognized as valid ("X's deck should have no more than 49 cards"). Even tried creating a whole new deck through Forge by selecting Omnath(2G) as commander and 49 forests, but the error is the same.
- If I disable Deck Conformance again, something odd happens, after selecting my custom user decks for both players on Tiny Leaders, the game starts with 2 random Commander decks (they are more than CMC3 and the library has 99 cards), although with 25 life.
- Strangely enough, if I choose "Random Deck" and click "Generate New Deck", the generated deck seems correct, 49 cards with CMC<3 and a CMC<3 Commander card, if I save this generated deck and try to use it, I get the maximum of 49 cards conformance check error again.

Cheers and thanks for all the efforts, I would love to help test more.

Thanks for the quick feedback. I just released 1.5.48.004 which should fix these issues. You should now be able to start Tiny Leaders games with either generated or constructed decks.

Why do you always fix issues so quickly?
Thanks for your contributions.

during my adventures in quest mode i found a problem with a card

"Amulet of Quoz" does not resolve once tapped, you cant even tap it

also "Krark's Thumb" should be tested with the card


was extremely disappointed with Magic 2015, then i found forge, big thanks to everyone involved in this project
i now enjoy going to work

You should probably post this in the main Beta thread since this issue isn't specific to the app.

Thank you very much! It works perfectly now!

Any advances on network support or the wonderful planar conquest mode?

I just released 1.5.48.005, which includes a fix so poison counters appear properly, an enhancement so your experience counter count appears over the corner of your avatar, and an enhancement so that you only need to pick the order a given set of abilities go on the stack one time, and thereafter if the same abilities would go on the stack, the order you chose previously is used automatically without you being reprompted.

Unfortunately it's been a very busy last several months for me and I've barely had any time to work on Forge. So nothing new to report on either of those at this time. Maybe I'll get inspired over the holidays and find some time. It's nice to know Planar Conquest hasn't been forgotten.

It hasn't been forgotten Dan... I personally just lurk on the forums hoping to see that one entry from you stating... New release .. Including Planar Conquest!!

Hoping you will be inspired to finish it.

I just released 1.5.48.006, which contains the following fixes and enhancements for deck selection and editing:

• Prevent partially complete Tiny Leaders decks being filtered out
• Make it so only valid commanders are shown when first creating a Commander/Tiny Leaders deck and so double-tap sets the commander in that state
• Make it so once a commander is set, only cards that match its color identity are shown in the Catalog
• Pull in commander name as default for deck name prompt when saving new Commander/Tiny Leaders deck
• Make it so Advanced Search filter automatically prompts to select a filter if Advanced Search previously empty
• Fix crash when clearing Advanced Search filter by selecting "(none)" for filter option
• Fix so text-based Advanced Search filter options remember their previous value

Hopefully these changes should make building Commander and Tiny Leaders decks much easier.

Thanks and enjoy.
