Mage team glad to introduce new version of Mage!

Mostly it contains bug fixes, stability improvements, ui changes and about 750 new cards. More details of the changes done since version 0.7.3 can be found here:
http://code.google.com/p/mage/wiki/ReleaseNotes

We thank a lot all people who participated in creating this version as well as those who helped us to test beta, beta-2 and beta-2.1

Probably we'll release 0.7.5 with major fixes if needed, but now our main goal is version 0.8 with as many Type 2 cards as possible.

Meanwhile version 0.7.4 has the following Type 2 cards:
M11: 249/249 (100%)
ZEN: 174/253 (69%)
ROE: 147/248 (49%)
WWK: 70/145 (48%)
SOM: 220/249 (88%)
MBS: 122/155 (79%)
NPH: 113/175 (65%)
M12: 182/249 (73%)

Enjoy Mage

I have installed Mage 0.74 but I am unable to get the application to recognize a new images directory when specified through the Preferences GUI. When I manually add image sets, such as SOM, to Mage's client plugins\images folder and use the default image directory, the images appear. When I set the Preferences image directory to non-default at a location such as G:\Folder\MTG, with the directory SOM residing within MTG, Mage does not show any images. Is there some naming convention I am missing?

I noticed the same deal with the bleeding edge version.

I got around the temporary setback by using a symbolic link in Windows 7:

Code: Select all: cd C:\Games\Mage\client\plugins rmdir images mklink /D images G:\Games\MTG

Mage resides on an internal drive (C:)
Images are stored on an external drive (G:) in the MTG folder.

jeffwadsworth> you should use the same format of storing images as it is in plugins\images
so to make sure it works, run Mage with default image path, download images, then move them to G:\Folder\MTG, so there will be G:\Folder\MTG\images\SOM\Abuna Acolyte.full.jpg. to use these images then, set "G:\Folder\MTG\images" as a path in Preferences dialog.
