06/01/2014: Commanding the revision of Ice Age.(V2 out 12/1)

[Fizanko]

I gave a try to Sarlack's Graphic mode and it didn't changed anything regarding the tooltips lacking from the deckbuilder.

Then after putting back the original files, i then installed Sonic's graphic mod and it looks like it's not compatible anymore with Manalink3 recent upgrades as when trying to launch, the game is unable to use the .pic files apparently and will popup an error message related to it for every single picture from Sonic, meaning a tons of them.

So it looks like i'm out of luck on this problem as i'm the only one that has it happening.
Fortunately it's not important as with using the deckbuilder so many times with the game sealed pack tournaments, i know what are those buttons by now.

Still i'm really curious at why the tooltips, while working in the battlefield aren't working in the deckbuilder, while for everyone else they work , even on the same OS as me, very odd.

If you've simply copied all the folders in the graphic mod archive into the games 'Program' folder, you've probably overwritten the Duel.dat file in the 'DuelArt' folder.

This file, my old card frames, ability and counter icon files, won't work with Korath's heavily modified Drawcardlib.dll so you need to reinstall the latest game patch after the graphic mod.
Then reboot the computer.

Hopefully this will solve the problem.

[Fizanko]

Thanks for the explanation, i'll give a try.
edit : it worked after re-installing the patch over your graphic mod.
Unfortunately, it does not solve the tooltips lacking problem from the deckbuilder, but it looks really nice to my eyes.

Some update about the tooltip lacking from the deckbuilder.

I decided to give a try to

CirothUngol ML3 version
Drop Box

as the base Manalink3 instead of what i was using :

Korath archive updated up to Theros November 2013
http://www.mediafire.com/?gdl1kl4j319g2gr
Warning: this is a vanilla install and does contain no graphic mod

Then i setup his Manalink with the Install_Me_First!.cmd
After that i did the whole upgrade :
- Deleted the CardArtManalink from CirothUngol ML3
- Replaced it with the CardArtManalink from there :

‘2012_CardArtManalink.zip’ (Main Folder / Artwork) – http://www.mediafire.com/download/pnj15 ... nalink.zip

- Added into the CardArtManalink folder, as instructed the updated cards from there

‘2012_2013_CardArtUpdates.zip’ (Compiled 2012/13 Card Art Updates) – http://www.mediafire.com/download/p1i5a ... pdates.zip

- Added again into the CardArtManalink folder the updated card from there

And now… Manalink 2014
CardArtManalink_Jan2014 – http://www.mediafire.com/download/dsln1 ... an2014.zip

-Then patched with the Ice Age V2 patch from there

Here's the link and then Sonic's corner : V2 - https://www.mediafire.com/?620q54rum2nc7wn

- Replaced the Text.res by the corrected one from there

Update 30/01/2014
CIAv2 up to date Text.res file available here, extract the archive to the main Magic folder, this correct hint bar issues :
download/file.php?id=15490

Started then Magic.exe from C:\Manalink 3.0\Program\ (as that's the path to Magic.exe from CirothUngol ML3 directory structure)

Then i went to the Deckbuilder .
And the tooltips works there.

The only difference between that Manalink3 and my other one was the unpatched base that was the Korath archive.
So i guess the lack of tooltip in Deckbuilder must come from something inside the Korath archive, as the CirothUngol one does not have that problem.

Anyone of you that had the tooltip working in the deckbuilder used the "Korath archive updated up to Theros November 2013" as their base Manalink before patching ?
If none of you guys did, it could confirm that the problem is in it

[Korath]

Aha! That distribution was missing CueCards.txt. The filename, stupidly enough, is obfuscated within Deck.dll, so I didn't detect it as used.

[Fizanko]

Thanks to help me confirm i wasn't slowly going insane and not seeing things that were there
At leats it wasn't some odd problem with my system

[stassy]

Damn, for a moment I though to make a search within ML3 folder for file with cuecards text but I dismissed it, should have noticed it earlier

Well, at least we know a bit more about Manalink files

[Gilber]

The cue card option only disable tooltips in the bf

Thank you very much stassy for answer my question about "What cue cards option in duel options do ?
and i really appreciate it

[Gilber]

Ok, after some double crosscheck and some excel awesome programming, got some way to compare data and take the exact list of newly coded card for CIAv2 (a bit late but better than nothing ) without Schemes because Schemes are just evil and messed up my compare method

Have you had anything back from our mate CirothUngol about the PDA?

[stassy]

Which issue, the cardname one?
