Forge Beta: 12-27-2013 ver 1.5.8
13412 cards in total.
Release Notes
- Improved dialog appearance -
Many message and confirmation dialogs now use skinned look with rounded border dialog on top of overlay.
- Deck Editor usability improvements -
You can now mark a card as a favorite in the Catalog by clicking the star icon in the first column. This will default the card to sort ahead of non-favorite cards if you sort on that first column (which is now the Forge default).
You can now add or remove cards from a deck using +/- buttons that appear on either side of the quantity for each card.
Filters are now available on Current Deck pane, replacing the need for the static stat labels.
A new filter has been added to allow filtering on specific Converted Mana Costs (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6+), as well as displaying the card count at each CMC.
Color and Type filter buttons no longer wrap, instead growing or shrinking as needed (along with the font the count string is too long).
Color and Type filter buttons can now be hidden, as well as be added from the Filters menu (formally "Add filter").
The Total stat label has been removed in favor of showing a caption and (# SHOWN/# AVAILBLE) ratio above the table. The caption is "Catalog" for the Catalog pane, and the deck name for the "Current Deck" pane.
Checkboxes are now available for each filter type, allowing that filter to be disabled and re-enabled without losing the configuration of that filter (such as chosen sets).
Adding a filter for formats, sets, and quest worlds now merges into existing filters of that type if possible to apply OR logic, rather than both appearing as separate filters with AND logic applied, likely resulting in no results.
Pressing Ctrl+Enter to add a filter for the current search now adds another editable search bar rather than just a label.
Cards added to deck are now selected, even if multiple are added at once. The performance of adding and removing multiple cards at once has also been improved.
When some but not all copies of a selected card are removed from the deck, that card now remains selected in the case of multiple cards being selected.
- Constructed mode -
Recently a change was made to the constructed mode and this change now allows you to have up to 8 players rather than just two. The game formats that are located in the variants mode also allow up to eight players. The current user interface for this feature is fairly basic and is not very attractive. The settings tab allows you to set the number of opponents. The player tabs includes the same options that you used to see in the constructed mode.
Marc recently sketched out a couple of attractive mockups that look far more attractive than what we are now using. We just need someone with java skills and swing experience to modify the existing code.

- Commander 2013 cards -
Forge now includes many of the new Commander 2013 cards. It may take a few days/weeks before these new card pictures become available for downloading via the "Download LQ Card Pictures" button. The LQ set pictures tend to take a few more weeks/months to process before they become available for downloading via the "Download LQ Set Pictures" button. Please be patient. The Forge devs are not involved in maintaining the servers that house these pictures.

Something's wrong with Fact or Fiction. When the AI plays it, unless I put 4 of the cards (in this case, 2 of the cards had the same name) into the right side pile, there's no "OK" button.

That was a bug and I've just fixed it - find the solution in daily builds or the next release.squee1968 wrote:Something's wrong with Fact or Fiction. When the AI plays it, unless I put 4 of the cards (in this case, 2 of the cards had the same name) into the right side pile, there's no "OK" button.

. Mindslaver is still broken. When I activate it and the opponent's next turn starts, both the battlefields disappear and I can't get them back without deleting the preferences files.

Chris,
The images of the numbers and mana pictures that should appear during the game, when I'm paying for a spell, unhappily, don't. All the other images (cards, etc) are just fine. This is happening since the update in which you guys added such thing. :S
Thank you guys for Forge; it is simply awesome! :D
Att,

When I sacrifice Lion's Eye Diamond, I am not allowed to choose a color, it just adds 3 
to my mana pool.

I cast Sapphire Charm (phase out) on my opponent's Jugan when it was attacking. I still took 5 damage and Jugan didn't seem to phase out until the end of my opponent's turn.

Lion's Eye Diamond seems to be quite broken after the auto-mana patch; you can use it to pay for spells by clicking the auto button, ignoring LED's timing restriction.gos wrote:When I sacrifice Lion's Eye Diamond, I am not allowed to choose a color, it just adds 3

Seems that Trap Runner can target blocked creatures. It should be limited to unblocked ones.
EDIT: And it can target creatures that are not attacking.

Spellskite has been failing on me. Sometimes it goes into a infinite loop of some sort. When I was targeting Fiend Hunter's ability with it, the dialogue showed targeting error, but I think it should work since it says "you may exile another target creature". Then the game neither freezes nor crashes, but I can't do anything besides clicking the OK button, and nothing happens besides "Fiend Hunter ability fizzles". See attached log.

For the past few versions, I've been getting this error whenever I try to play a multiplayer game. (multiple AI opponents)
