Online MTG: Forge

[nixrage]

hey forge, thx for the great work, im playing mtg forge everyday!!!
btw, i was wondering if you can make your program work with connecting to the internet, so users can battle at net?

[mtgrares]

Ideally MTG Forge could let you play against the AI and other people on the Internet, but it can't. You can use Incantus or Firemox to play others on the Internet. Both programs enforce the rules of Magic.

Thanks for the praise. Magic is a great game

in Fire mox? can i play with AI?

[mtgrares]

Firemox and Incantus do not have any AI. Only MTG Forge has AI, another project called Magma also has an AI. (I don't have a link to Magma on hand even though I have tried it.)

[Incantus]

And wagic (http://wololo.net/wagic) has an AI (and it runs on PSP, Windows, linux and mac)

Oh yeah I forgot about Wagic. I couldn't get it running in my Windows machine but now he has a fix. I'm downloading it now. I'll probably post Wagic on my blog sometime.

Ah it does run on windows? I must not have been paying enough attention.

[mtgrares]

Yeah it runs on Windows. The screen is small and you have to use the keyboard. I am thinking about zipping up Windows Wagic and posting it sometime on my blog. Using the keyboard is really hard so I'm going to try to find some sort of program that maps my gamepad to the keyboard, it would be it alot better.

Fullscreen and a user friendly keyboard configuration will hopefully be added in the versions to come. Well, fullscreen, at least, will be available in the next release (It is just a bigger version of the psp though, it doesn't allow to have more cards on the screen or a better layout)

Hey mtgrares! I'm lovin' MTG Forge and really looking forward to V.2! If you want a good, clean tool to map your keyboard onto a gamepad, try out JoystickCursorTool.

I use it for my emulators mapped onto an XBox 360 controller. Works perfectly.

Thanks for the program lonewarrior. Playing Wagic with my Sidewinder joypad should be pretty easy, it has shoulder buttons and everything like a PSP.
