Laterna Magica version 2010/09/04
Posted: 04 Sep 2010, 16:57
Proudly announcing the first version of Laterna Magica!
I think it's clear from the feature list that this won't give you the most fun Magic experience, but if you want to try the GUI and possibly give a little feedback, go ahead.
After Unpacking lm20100904.7z, unpack lm20100904-lib.7z besides the contained jar.
On the first startup, Laterna Magica will unpack some resources and finish the "installation". After that, these directories will exist:
- Requires Java 1.6
- Building and saving decks
- LQ gatherer card pictures and symbols
- Playing against yourself (you are both players) using the new combat rules (in fact, everything that *is* working should work according to the newest rules.)
- currently only lands and vanilla creatures (oh, and Llanowar Elves)

I strongly suggest to have Laterna Magica in its own directory.Download Laterna Magica: lm20100904.7z
Downlaod required libraries: lm20100904-lib.7z
The libraries are separate so that you don't need to download them along with subsequent versions (they take ~9.4MB).
On the first startup, an error will be shown. Just click it away, it should not show up again.
