Quick question in regards to Shrine of the false Gods and Eldrazi Temple. I noticed that eldrazi temple is in the game and it got me thinking to look at the card code for it. Is it just me or does that land just give you an extra mana when an eldrazi is going to be casted? If so this leads me to another possible answer for this shrine card. what if the card was coded like eldrazi temple but only activates when the land count is proper. Since it is apart of the mana it should autotap when you try to cast a eldrazi. At least that would make it pretty close to as acurate as i can think of with the current engine. Also i was thinking about how you explained to me why the other ally lands like ally encampment haven of spirit dragon and so on wouldnt work properly with the current engine. Is it possible to make the lands untap if the cancel is used and mana unspent is flushed from the pool? Im sure you have already tried that but like i always say im here to think outside the box. 
can I maze of ith your snowstorm?

@Korath - Yes I know what I said about posting a full list of the artwork you needed. But I had a few hours to kill so I decided to get some of this Shandalar card art out of the way whilst I had the free time. viewtopic.php?f=56&t=17888&start=30#p190889
The archive contains the artwork as listed in your post above, except for two - Argent Mutation and Wirefly Hive - both of which are already in the CardArtManalink folder.

Post a list of whatever else you need whenever you get the time.

Additional non-Manalink cards and tokens I've added since then (as of commit e7f1b00, so I don't have to track it down again):

Ere we go. The new batch of Shandalar card art processed and added to the previously posted archive. (Can't be doing with half filled zip files littering up the place.)
As before - http://www.mediafire.com/download/ueqsf ... ardArt.zip
Only file missing from the last posted list is the token artwork for 'Sheep' as it's already in the CardArtManalink folder.

Niiice. This would add more cards to an already intriguing next release for Shandalar.
When playing, card text is important. Read and understand it. It will usually prevent most errors.

I hadn't planned on posting another list until OGW scans were out, but that seems to be taking longer than usual for a small set, and I don't expect to put in any other non-Manalink cards this release.
Edit: Also, while I have your ear, Island (44).jpg is the same image as Snow-Covered Island.jpg.
- As of 9e94b15 | Open
- A bit longer than the previous list, though not by much | Open

Current state of play: About halfway through the latest Non-Manalink card art list, and just grabbed the OGW HQ card art - which I'll probably make a start on at the weekend.
No rush.

Some of the Snow-Covered Lands card art was reused in the Coldsnap Themes Decks release as Basic Land - I'll have to check the other land types as well.Korath wrote:Edit: Also, while I have your ear, Island (44).jpg is the same image as Snow-Covered Island.jpg.

I've updated the ShandalarCardArt.zip with the latest non-manalink card art requests. There were quite a few duplicates in the last list, and the tokens listed are already in the current CardArtManalink folder.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/ueqsf ... ardArt.zip
Here's the OGW artwork. This is the complete set - the unused artwork is in a separate folder.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/yl1nw ... ardArt.zip
As to the duplicated Snow-Covered Lands issue. As this will be the first release of the year, and I need to do the annual recompile of the card art archives. I'll release the new archives with the artwork fixes included.

So you're aware (and in case I accidentally implied otherwise), there isn't going to be a corresponding Manalink release. Unless Gargaroz returns or another maintainer steps forward, I don't expect there to be another one for quite a while, likely not until the end of the year.
I'm going to begin packaging the Shandalar release. Should I point folks at the ShandalarCardArt.zip link above, or do you want me to wait for the full recompilation?

I didn't realise that. I simply thought that as you wanted the OGW artwork it was for a Manalink update. No matter.Korath wrote:So you're aware (and in case I accidentally implied otherwise), there isn't going to be a corresponding Manalink release.

I've done the recompiling for the 2012-2015 card art archives and set up a March archive for all the non-manalink and OGW artwork. On the assumption that the Shandalar (non-manalink) card art is now going in the CardArtManalink folder - is that right?

TBH, I'd prefer to maintain the CardArtManalink folder as a 'one size fits both' group of archives, rather than post individually named Manalink or Shandalar card art releases. If that's ok?Korath wrote:Yes.
I can simply rewrite the card art instructions to reflect the fact that the CardArtManalink folder now serves both parts of the game.

That would be ideal - part of the reason I set up Shandalar this way was to remove the need to separately maintain the Shandalar artwork installation.

Sorry, I thought that's what was going on. I got slightly confused when you mentioned pointing folks at the ShandalarCardArt.zip link, as the archive contains the separate Shandalar card art folder we used to use.
OK how's this:
The updated archives will be up in a while - barring any unforeseen uploading disasters.
Should be OK to go any time after that.
Edit:
MediaFire not playing ball today. Yesterday - upload speed fine. Today - watching paint dry. Have to try again tomorrow.
OK how's this:
Any edits you think might be appropriate... feel free.Important Information: The 'CardArtManalink' folder is now used to store the card artwork for both the Manalink 3.0 and Shandalar games. Card art updates will still be released identified by the month of any patch release, whether the patch services one or both games.
The 2012 'CardArtShandalar' archive is now redundant in terms of development, but can still be downloaded from older patch announcement posts for use with the 2010 ISO. Please read the archives instructions in the announcements.
Annual Archive Recompile – Please Read:
The main ‘2012_CardArtManalink’ and ‘CardArtUpdates_2012_2014’ archives have now been recompiled to include any replacement artwork from last year, and the separate 2015 card art updates have been recompiled into a single archive. Please download these archives again – see notes and links below.
CardArtUpdate_March2016 – http://www.mediafire.com/download/fhs2t ... ch2016.zip
Please Note: This card art update only contains the card artwork for the March 2016 Manalink/Shandalar patch.
If you are downloading Manalink or Shandalar for the first time, or your currently installed ‘CardArtManalink’ folder is older than the March 2016 release, please download and install the folder and files in the following archives:
‘CardArtManalink_2012.zip’ (Main Folder / Artwork) – http://www.mediafire.com/download/nhis2 ... k_2012.zip
‘CardArtUpdates_2012_2014.zip’ (Compiled 2012-14 Card Art Updates) – http://www.mediafire.com/download/btxf2 ... 2_2014.zip
'CardArtUpdates_2015.zip' (Compiled 2015 Card Art Updates) – http://www.mediafire.com/download/gs02z ... s_2015.zip
Delete your currently installed ‘CardArtManalink’ folder and replace it with the folder in the CardArtManalink_2012 archive. Then copy the artwork from the CardArtUpdates_2012_2014, CardArtUpdates_2015 and March 2016 archives into the newly installed ‘CardArtManalink’ folder.
Updated number of image files in the CardArtManalink folder: 16625
The updated archives will be up in a while - barring any unforeseen uploading disasters.
Should be OK to go any time after that.
Edit:
Note to self: Remind me not to tempt fate, again.barring any unforeseen uploading disasters.
