Forge Beta: 04-12-2013 ver 1.3.12

[Chris H.]

Thanks for the new version.

Is Flashback implented? I was not able to figure out how to cast from the graveyard (specifically with Lava Dart).

 
The forge wiki at:

Where do I use Flashback or a similar ability that is in an External area?
 

Click on the Lightning Bolt icon in the player panel. Since cards with External Activations aren't as clear to activate, we created this shortcut for this specific purpose.

Thanks Chris! I was unaware of the Wiki.

Exsanguinate does not allow you to add mana for X and the text on the stack reads "you lose life equal to" instead of "you gain life equal to"

Description: Ended the turn. I did press the space bar fairly quickly to skip through phases, but that shouldn't be a problem for the program.

I clicked on the Deck Editor button. This bug was present in the previous version, and hasn't been attended to.

You didn't read instructions in the topmost post

- Deck Editor and Match layout file issues -
On several occasions people have noticed that the Forge deck editor and/or quest mode card shop would not open or display. We have also received reports that some of the tabs/panels in the deck editor are missing. There has also been reports that Forge will crash while creating/populating display components during start up or crash when a match is started. One or both of your layout xml files may be corrupted in some fashion. Try deleting the file(s) named "editor.xml" and/or "match.xml" that are now located in your userDir/preferences/ directory. This should force Forge to then use the default layout xml files instead.

Whenever I target an opponent with a discard or exile effect (Karn, Liberated first ability) The AI exiles a card from MY hand. same with praetor's grasp it only exiles from MY library which isn't even a legal target.

When Culling Dais asks me to sacrifice a creature, the "Cancel"-Button is greyed out.

ai cast Cunning Wish for a Force of Will. It appeared in my hand not the ai. Yes I have got version 12.

AI can activate Phyrexian Prowler without removing fade counters from him.

I think flicker effects are not working correctly (i.e effects that exile a card then return it immediately) - my understanding was that the card that gets returned is effectively an entirely new card, so any spells that were targeting it before it was exiled will no longer be targeting it when it returns. For instance if I use Ghostly Flicker on a creature targeted by a spell the spell will still have its effect. Also other status effects are still on the card - if it was tapped it will still be tapped when it returns, but exiled cards should lose all these effects, or at least that was my understanding.

Maybe this is an issue with Ghostly Flicker? I just tested with Restoration Angel and it works just fine.

Edit: Yep, the scripts were slightly different. Should be fixed for the next version. If that card is important to you you can open the corresponding .txt file in /res/cardsfolder/ and replace it with:

I am so glad that i dont need to press enter all the time anymore. That skipping is really helpful.

ai cast Cunning Wish for a Force of Will. It appeared in my hand not the ai. Yes I have got version 12.

Did the Force of Will come from your sideboard?

Edit: It must have, the Wishes didn't have any restrictions over which Sideboard it could retrieve from, and obviously only cards you own can go into your hand.

I just tested this and it worked just fine. Please be sure you are using the version from 4-12, because this bug has been fixed that existed in the last one.
