Manalink update 16/11/2013 : Portals to Theros
by Gargaroz » 16 Nov 2013, 15:48
Ok guys, the wait is over ! Here's the probably most epic patch we ever release for our beloved Manalink !
It contains so much stuff and improvements that I couldn't post all here, but if you're curious I'll attach a full changelog below.
In shot, here you could find almost all the cards from Theros and the best from Portal / Portal 2 / Portal 3 Kingdoms and Starter.
With this, all the existing expansions of Magic are covered, but there's still work to do !
Apart from improving stuff, fixing bugs and implementing previous impossible abilities / effects, from the next patch we're going back in time to Arabian Nights and starting re-adding stuff that was missing and that I left off when I originally released my Golden Years mod.
The objective is to have almost complete sets until Fallen Empires and then keeping only the best stuff from the other set until Urza Destiny.
Before the link, the usual list of thanx :
- Korath, our new programming mastermind, his help is immense and guys, be sure to offer him 10 drinks if you'll meet him in person !
- Sonic, for the usual data insertinon and artwork management. You know you rock !
- Stassy, for the work with AI values. You rule !
- Foolosopher, for the work on the Draft section. Too bad we were unable to insert his latest work in this patch, but it'll go surely in the next !
- Everyone else who is helping and supporting us, in particular the Bug Hunters bunch !
Ok, no more babble, here's the link and then Sonic's corner : http://www.mediafire.com/?9ila0m4g38cai8a

Unfortunately we are unable to source a full set of HQ artwork for Theros at present. Subsequently most of the new Theros card artwork included in the archive is currently LQ, and will be updated as soon as the HQ card art becomes available.
Archive includes alternative artwork for:
Blessing
Capashen Knight
Lay of the Land
Lightning Talons
Millstone
Nightmare
Opportunity
Spell Blast

The horsemanship icon, Drawcardlib configuration, and Drawcardlib frame artwork got left out of the release package. (Clearly we need better automation.)
The frame artwork is at http://www.mediafire.com/?g9ro26fp0rgvgsn. (It's unchanged from the package I posted to the "Drawcardlib revisited" topic in Development on 16 Oct 2013, so there's no need to download it again if you've already gotten it from there.) Unzip it directly into your Manalink 3.0\Program directory.
The icon and Drawcardlib configuration are attached here. Unzip it directly into your Manalink 3.0\Program directory as well.
---
The released binary has a dependency on libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll. A statically-linked build is attached.
---
To be absolutely clear, you need ALL THREE of the files here in addition to BOTH of the files from Gargaroz's release above.
If drawcardlib complains on startup that it can't find files named "png", it's because you either didn't install the frame artwork linked on mediafire in this post, or didn't unzip it directly into your Manalink 3.0\Program directory.
If magic.exe complains on startup that it can't find libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll, it's because you either didn't install ManalinkEh.zip attached to this post, or didn't unzip it directly into your Manalink 3.0\Program directory.
If drawcardlib complains on startup that it can't find files named "pic", it's because you either didn't install horsemanship-and-dclconfig.zip attached to this post, or didn't unzip it directly into your Manalink 3.0\Program directory. That's very nearly half of you, judging from the download counts on the attachments.
If everything seems to work, but you don't have any Theros or new Portal cards, it's because you didn't install the main patch from the first mediafire link in Gargaroz's post above.
If everything seems to work, but the Theros and new Portal cards all have blank artwork, it's because you didn't install the artwork from the second mediafire link in Gargaroz's post above.
The frame artwork is at http://www.mediafire.com/?g9ro26fp0rgvgsn. (It's unchanged from the package I posted to the "Drawcardlib revisited" topic in Development on 16 Oct 2013, so there's no need to download it again if you've already gotten it from there.)

Never mind the prior error report, I found the missing dll elsewhere on my PC, copied it to the Manalink directory and am back in business. Thanks for the awesome update!

The best update ever with the removal of the dreaded Draftsets file 
Some notices though, I am getting different card frames for different sets : that is normal right?
Also some words are a bit displaced, I do remember I was able to fix it previously with frame test but I don't remember how
List of coded 344 new cards according to new cardimage archive, cleaned from token and special card effect image :
Attached are 3 test decks containing them, good luck bug hunter and don't forget to update your PDA!
Also new moderators are incoming as soon as they are validated by Huggy

Well, there is no /modern folder in the CardArt posted, and the game wants a lot of CardArt/modern files.

You need :
drawcardlib-media-20131015.zip
horsemanship-and-dclconfig.zip
ManalinkEh.zip
The 1st one contains the files needed and is in Korath post
Also, beware of non english OS, some cards and card arts will not be shown in the DeckEditor if your language system does not support special chars such as Pang Tong, "Young Phoenix" or Déjà Vu

The thing is I downloaded it all and think I've overwritten something, could be the reason. I'll try and d/l it all again.
Ok, it's working, thanks a lot. Figures redownloading it all helps after all.

All archives should be extracted in root folder of your Magic folder, be sure that there is no others CardArt folder inside the same CardArt folder
