Hi

First to all thanks a lot for this game. New xp version is really pro :mrgreen:

Now some noob question

1)I have many card that have wrong pictures(acid rain have scuta pic or firebreathing have novablast wurm pic etc) but i download the ultimate pic rar :|. why?

2)Where i go to try challenge mode? I beat gauntlet 35-36/50 best of 1 without ante with a simple AngelMoat deck(using correct limitation for vintage,1black lotus,1mox etc)but i don't unlock anything

3)When i try draft mode, after the first challenge game crash :| and i can't play other match. why?

4)For draft mode there isn't other patch to upgrade new set?

5)Game don't save file of face editor that i created. Why?


for now it's all :P






Thanks and remember to use simple english :P

1) The new pictures have to be put into the CardArtNew directory. Create it if it does not already exist and unzip them there. Some pics are wrong even in the newest upgrade, but 99% of them are correct.

2) When you run Magic.exe, click on Duel, then Gauntlet, then check the box labeled 'Challenge Mode'

3) I don't know. I've never gotten draft mode to work.

4) see #3

5) No idea, I have never used this feature.

First of all, when you want to draft use magiclimited.exe.
Secondly, you need to choose "Human Draft Deck (0)" and choose "Opponent Draft Deck (1-7)",
because the game need to save the deck here. Remember to clean the saveddeck, after playing the draft, you can do this in TOOLS.

Looking at the image, you must have an older version of manalink. Go to the St. Valentine's Day Massacre thread and install the files found there.

I download the only link that work at st valentine day topic,and I replace all image but have the same problem. Many card have the wrong pic(i think thats why i don't unlock nothing)
Also i don't have magiclimited.exe on directory(i see on all folder)and can't see challenge mode :|

I download the the torrent iso that i found here viewtopic.php?f=25&t=2349 so that is the standard manalink game....or not?

There are two things to keep in mind for all challenge modes:

1) All decks must be Type 1 legal. This means you cannot be playing with four Black Lotus, for instance. If you are not familiar with the restricted list, it is here:
http://www.wizards.com/Magic/TCG/Resour ... sfrvintage

2) Some challenges have further restrictions on how you can build your deck. Information about the challenge rules are here:
http://www.slightlymagic.net/wiki/Challenge_Mode

There are also threads on the forum where people list decks that they have been successful with. Look in the Decks and Strategy section, but there are spoilers in those threads :)
