Manalink Update 7/14: M10 + Facelift

[somacat]

Thanks again for the updates, jatill and math! Yeah, Standstill et al. don't really belong on the list, which is why I created a special category for them... I just left them on there mainly so we don't get duplicate requests to fix them (Standstill was mentioned a couple of times in monopoman's thread, for instance).

Have a great vacation, jatill!

its so unbelievable that all these years later this game is still being improved. thanks again for all the hard work.

are the old art areas going to be added? like the phase and attack phase vertical bars?

[Wally]

Hmm. I updated and can see the new art (and its great!) but I am now missing most of the informational elements of the game. I can no longer see how many cards in either mine or the AI's hand. I can no longer see the power or toughness of creatures.

Any idea what has gone wrong?

In the duelart zip there is 2 folders, you need to extract both in the duelart folder of your Magic folder, 1st the folder duelart then 2nd the duelartNew.

[Wally]

Yeah I did that, with this result. I also tried copying the old duelart back over the new duelart to give me back the old art (better old art with info then no info) but I just ended up with the old art and no game info!

hmmm.....starnge. I do not experience this bug.

actually the phase bar is already done but causes the game to crash along with some other arts that can't be added for the moment (like my naked feary for the start game menu and my brand new buttons ).

[Wally]

Resolved. Problem gone after reboot. I cant explain but whatever, it works now And looking good!

hmm, any ideas why these certain art files crash the game? I hope you and Jatill and figure that one out.

that old phase bar sitting there in the middle of all the great new art is jarring.

the new skins are so cool that I feel like if I'm playing on a texas poker table

[gmzombie]

the reason is the phase bar didnt come out right when i tried to get the original artwork into a bmp format. it cut off the top and math had to estimate the size.

[mathusalem]

That could be the reason, but apparently the startduel menu (which I know the exact size) crashes as well.
Jatill says the trouble might come from images that come on top of other images. although the cast spell images (the one with the goblin) does work.

Who said computing was an exact science ?

Hi, just a note for the ones that were using my filtred version: I've updated it for the last time and written instructions about how to do it, since with the summer heat I prefer to do other things the thread is here: viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1076&p=17426#p17426
have fun!

Hi guys just wondering if it can be uploaded on another site. Been waiting for 2 days cant seem to get rapidshare to work. Says too many active users or i am currently downloading, which i am not.

So thanks in advance !

[Huggybaby]

The Rapidshare link was extremely slow for me too. Here are the two files from the first post (the cardart and manalink updates), minus the two thumbs.db files:
