If I remember well you need to select the card and press "enter" or "y".

Did you try to double click on the selected card?

In the 'Trade for Amulet' screen, select the card you want to trade for, and then click on the card itself.NoNe666 wrote:How you can take card with amulets? every time when they offer me to do it i cant take it. i can select card and when i press done i dont get it...you suck without those cards...pls assist
A question below the card will appear saying something like:
"I'll trade you 1 'whatever card' for X colored amulets.
Do you wish to trade?"
Below this there will be two answers:
"Yes, I'll trade."
"No Thanks."
Click on "Yes, I'll trade.", and the question and answers will disappear.
Exit the Trade screen by clicking 'Done', and go to 'Edit deck/Sell cards' screen to see if the card has been left in the card pool at the bottom of the screen.
Works for me.

Guys i have a question about new cards. I'm trying rebuild the UG madness deck but couldn't find wild mongrel. I saw one card named fissure but the art was the same with wild mongrel except its red? Also i noticed apprentice wizard having a call of the herd art but blue. I just downloaded the update cardartnew and overwritten the present one. I'm not sure what i missed or something i did wrong.

Sounds like you haven't downloaded and installed the correct update - posted in the first post. If you install any other update than this one it will corrupt the game.terrantado wrote:Guys i have a question about new cards. I'm trying rebuild the UG madness deck but couldn't find wild mongrel.

Im running the MTG ISO on Win7 in XP SP3 compatibility. I have the torrent file. When i try to play a fetch land (say flooded strand) the game freezes...like its thinking but doesnt ever stop. Ive read a couple threads on this forum about the same problem but have not seen an answer...any suggestions?
Also...is there anyway to booster draft on this thing?

Answering in reverse order:
If booster drafting wasn't in the original game then it won't be in this one so check the manalink forum for that.
The ISO version doesn't need to be run in any compatibility mode, did you have trouble?
I don't know. For that kind of help it's best to look in the manalink forum.

Update! Septermber 14, 2010
by Huggybaby » 16 Sep 2010, 03:54
Today Sonic continues in his relentless pursuit of perfection with another update to the ISO. But this time we get even more than our much loved picture refresh. This time we get new exe's! Replacement Magic.exe and Shandalar.exe programs, to be exact.
Here's why new exe's were needed. (It's technical.)
Next, all the cards images have been re-encoded to a slightly higher JPEG quality setting. This has been done in order to remove the blocky pixelation with some of the card artwork in the Shandalar buy/sell and deck builder screens. This was not easy because the problem is intermittent.
BEFORE (Worst Case):
AFTER:
The problem only affects Shandalar and the new encoding has no noticeable affect on the Duel Games. Thanks to KING-TYPO for reporting on and and testing this. If anyone has heard from him since his hard drive blew up let us know.
And on to the pics: This update includes some new artwork for the cards, and this includes pre-release and rewards artwork for:
More: Also included is alternative token artwork for:
Plus, the latest artwork from M11 for:
Juggernaut...
...and Mana Leak
And now, the link:

Thanks to NoobWizard, KING-TYPO and again to Sonic for the hard work, and attention to detail, put into this CCGHQ quality update.
PS And thanks to kevlahnotafor the formatting tags I stole to format sections of this post.

- | Open
- To resolve an issue with cards which have their Creature Type encoded within the programs themselves, such as the Zombie, Goblin, Merfolk, Dwarf, Efreet, Djinn, Rat, Elephant, and Mammoth. It seems some of the creature cards of these types would not gain PowerUp and Landwalk abilities even though their Manalink.csv file entries were found to be correct. Setting their Creature Types within the actual programs seems to have resolved this.

Installed fine and played a couple games so far on Vista x64, no problems perceived.
Thanks for the hard work on a classic game.

Need a bit more info.
What OS are you using? Have you installed the latest update? Is the game installed in the correct folder - C:\Program Files\’ or ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\’ if using Windows7 x64)?

Thanks for your reply! I'm using XP SP3 and default ISO version, i didn't install any updates (where can i find them?). I installed to C:\MagicTG, i don't remember exactly where but i think i read something about long directory routes could cause issues...Sonic wrote:Hi Asta666Asta666 wrote:hey guys!!! this is great, but i have a bug sometimes in Shandalar when i enter a city none of the menus pop up, just the background image of the city is shown, and music and sounds can be heard but i cant exit or do anything, just have to alf+f4 and load again, after a few tries sometimes it gets fixed but sometimes it doesn't :S any ideas why this happens or what can be done to solve it??
