It's the ISO version, which is Manalink...before the new cards.

Attached is BFZv2, a bugfix version for the Battle for Zendikar release. It contains no new cards or features, unless you count cards' rules text being updated to their most recent Oracle versions.

It should install cleanly only over a Manalink-3.0 installation already updated to BFZ (December 2015). If you haven't yet updated to BFZ, you must fully update to that version first. If you have, all you need to do is to unzip the attached zipfile into your existing installation directory. (It's good practice to first delete your src/ subdirectory, but not strictly necessary this time.)

Like BFZ, BFZv2 is incompatible with versions of Shandalar released in 2015. Installing either release into a Shandalar-2015 installation will destroy it. Just don't.

I'll build a full release zip that, like BFZv1, can be installed over any version of PtT (November 2013) or later within a couple days and edit it into the original announcement, so people can skip the intermediary step.

I followed the instructions and it now will not open, will not let me move, delete, copy or uninstall, I get a message saying it is currently open in another program, but only firefox and the normal windows services show in the task manager, I'm on windows 10 I downloaded and tried the .cmd file, but that did not help. At this point I just want it gone, could anyone help me with that?

There is no .cmd file, so I haven't the foggiest what you're on about. For the general case, I've had good experiences with LockHunter.

He was probably referring to yasm.exe and csv2dat.exe which are not needed to run Manalink as user only and/or the native w10 antivirus.

No issue so far with BFZv2 when running ML3...

I think there is a version out there that puts a .cmd file to try and fix compatibility but I can't remember where it came from. I'll look when I get back to my computer

I forget where I got my original install, but there is a play_manalink.cmd in the installation folder. I've just never used it.

Hey, DrLambda here (can't access my old account, can't remember the mail i registered it with.) Is this patch supposed to fix the Windows 10 problems? Because after installing everything, i still can't launch the program. It opens, is visible in the Task Manager for a few seconds, then disappears and creates a crash dump.

This is what i see from the windows protocol (sorry, it's in german, but you probably can run it through a translator:)

Folks who downloaded BFZv1 and the separate BFZv1-BFZv2 upgrade will want to grab this, which re-enables Bitterblossom, the five Honden shrine enchantments from Champions of Kamigawa, and nine other much-lower-profile cards that got accidentally disabled in BFZv1. It's already included if you upgrade from FRF or earlier directly to BFZv2 via the monolithic patch now in the first post.

Ty, totally forgot about that. It worked. It's very obscure and probably should be somewere in the install instructions. When you wrote it I remembered having te exact same problem last time, too.

Wish I knew what caused this. The font-loading and text-displaying functions aren't, so far as I can tell, doing anything unusual. (Other than, you know, going directly through low-level w32api. But they appear to follow the API as documented.)
