Forge 07/31/2010 (unofficial BETA) version

(Quest icons used created by Teekatas, from his Legendora set http://raindropmemory.deviantart.com)

3832 cards in total.

This version is based upon the revision #1600 which is found on our SVN. Your game settings are now saved to a preferences file and they should be maintained between program launches. We have a new battlefield display and it may take some time to get used to it, but it is nice. We have a lot of new cards and a few bug fixes and several cards now have a slight improvement in the AI code.

I removed the ".SVN" and the /res/lib/ folders from this archive as they are not needed. The archives are now compressed using the 7z format. There are utilities for Windows, Mac OS and the various *nix's that can be used to decompress these archives.

Fixes/Features:

- Updated the rarity files.
- You can now save your settings to a preferences file.
- Added additional AI decks to quest mode.
- Code cleanups.
- Added RevealYouChoose method to spDiscard.
- Minor fixes for Necropotence and Yawgmoth's Bargain. Can only pay life that is available. Cards are still gained even if Necro isn't in play during the end step. Bargain now uses the draw function. Pay life function is needed for the minor necro update.
- Replaced some "Zoo" cards in Bamm Bamm Rubble 1 with some new domain cards.
- Added sortByTextLen, first used by spDiscard.
- Added check for targeted parameter to AI_getBestEnchantment.
- Added activatingPlayer to SpellAbility. Rakka Mar and Captain of the Watch now use the activatingPlayer which is locked in when the ability hits the stack.
- Fix descriptions for Gemstone Mine and Vivid Cycle lands.
- Converted some existing cards from code to keyword.
- Fixed Ajani's Pridemate and Ageless Entity to only trigger when the controller gets life.
- All console output gets saved as forge.log and is deleted at next program
execution.
- Code cleanups.
- Downloading pictures errors are now logged and don't pop up error messages.
- Added Hellfish' newest bug fix.
- Fix for AnyPlayer Abilities to checked for each ability, not just the card.
- Fix to add AnyPlayer abilities to Computer section that is actually used by the AI.
- Fix AI_handToLibrary function that was discarding in certain circumstances.
- Moved abAddReflectedMana to CardFactory to be more widely usable.
- No flickering at the start of game in Hand area.
- No ghost cards in Hand.
- Improved the AI for Phylactery Lich.
- Pressing enter doesn't skip 2 phases.
- More options saved.
- Added Arcane subtype to Kodama's Reach.
- Added Madness keyword. Updated Reckless Wurm, Ichor Slick. Notes: Madness 0 cards are autocast when discarded. This probably should be more delicate. AI needs to be smarter when using Madness with spells that target.
- Fixes to the new preferences file system.
- Fixed playCard(Card) to check canPlay of each ability before giving the choice to the player.
- Dimir Guildmage canPlay now uses canCastSorcery() instead of checking
activePlayer and the phase.
- Changed Tradewind Rider to be Optional in case two creatures aren't available to be tapped during resolution. This should be changed back to mandatory when the cost is paid on activation.
- Fixed Psychatog's 2nd ability.
- Femeref Archers should be able to target attackers attacking planeswalkers (made similar fixes to Tor Wauki and Lady Caleria).
- Added Suspend keyword.
- Updated Shade of Trokair, Giant Dustwasp, Pardic Dragon, Viscerid Deepwalker with Suspend keyword.
- Added Ancestral Vision, although it currently doesn't draw cards due to a
upkeep/draw phase bug that doesn't let you draw more than one card during your draw phase.
- Reprisal now uses AllZone.GameAction.destroyNoRegeneration().
- Fixed Keldon Halberdier First Strike keyword.
- Fix for suspend that broke just before submission.
- Added a StaticEffect keyword.
- Improved the AI for Crib Swap.
- Should not be able to use Isochron Scepter anymore when it's tapped.
- Minor fix to the spell description line made to Giant Dustwasp.
- Added the keyword "CARDNAME is blue." to Ancestral Vision.
- Fixed a bug with cards having 0 toughness dying straight away.
- Added Time Counter ability to Pardic Dragon.
- Some of the cards that are removed from random constructed decks no longer slow the computer down or are no longer not fully completed. Commented out these card removals. Cards impacted include: the Incarnations, Aether Membrane, Hand of Cruelty, Hand of Honor.
- Improved the AI for Visara the Dreadful and Avatar of Woe. Added checks for canTarget() and for Indestructible.
- Improved the AI for Intrepid Hero. The AI will no longer target creatures with Indestructible.
- Added an easy and a hard version of the Treefolk deck called Treebeard 1 and 3.
- Added opponent deck descriptions for quest decks Treebeard 1 and 3.
- Added an Arcane/Spirit deck called Totoro 2.
- Added a Saruman 2 deck.
- New play area, there might still be some rendering glitches.
- Sun Titan fix.
- Removed Klaas, Elf Friend; Tortuga; Test Destroy
- Added cardsScript.py a python script to synchronize cards.txt with appropriate pictures and rarity entries. Directions for Python are inside the script.
- Improved the AI for Royal Assassin.
- Improved the AI for Dwarven Demolition Team.
- Minor code clean ups in CardFactory_Creatures.
- Small tweaks for displaying names of Suspended cards and displaying name of spell when needing to target a player (useful for Ancestral Vision being cast)

- Fix for targeting in new GUI ex. Chandra Nalaar always targeted itself.
- Improved the AI for Reprisal.
- Several minor code cleanups in CardFactory.java.
- Added playerTurn, a string to keep track of whose turn
- Replaced getLastPlayerToDraw with isPlayerTurn in a few locations to play nice with cards that skip draw phases. Note: Whenever keyword uses getLastPlayerToDraw but wasn't sure what it was doing. Probably should use isPlayerTurn instead.
- Added a bounce keyword spBounceTgt.
- Fixed the target selection prompt of spBounceTgt.
- Added the option TopofLibrary to spBounceTgt.
- Fixed Thran Quarry/Glimmervoid bug where it was only sacrificing on active players turn.
- Added Sac-<Type> as a cost to abDamageTgt.
- Added the option Exile to spBounceTgt.
- In the past a number of cards were converted from code to keyword. The original code objects were commented out when they were keyword-ed. We have deleted these commented out code objects from CardFactory.java.
- Fixed Disperse.
- Added Sac-<Type> and Sac-CARDNAME to abPump keyword as a cost.
- Some of the inputs will now check if an ability has AfterPayMana for Sacrifice effects before putting the ability on the stack.
- Updated Phyrexian Plaguelord to use updated abPump keyword.
- Removed accents from Deja Vu.
- Updated the Grampa Simpson 1 deck.
- Added Ability_Cost.java to combine Ability costs for Keywords. Will ease implementing additional costs to any keyword.

The opponent icons for Forge 07/31/2010:

Quest_Opponent_icons_07-31-2010.7z

This archive contains an updated version of the run-forge.jar file. This is from rev 1612 on the SVN. It also contains a new en.properties file and this file should be placed in the /res/lang/ directory.

Forge Fix r1612.7z

This archive contains an updated version of the run-forge.jar file. This is from rev 1619 on the SVN. It also contains a new en.properties file and this file should be placed in the /res/lang/ directory.

This version should allow you to choose one of the look and feel Display Options and to then restart Forge without an error exception. Thank you Snacko.

It's possible that your landpanel size is set to some tiny number... on your netbook, try replacing the contents of display_layout.xml (found in /res/gui) with the following:
`
This is the replacement display_layout.xml file that Dennis mentioned in his message. Download, uncompress and place this in your Forge/res/gui/ directory.

With this file you should play with the New GUI check box unchecked. All five zones/panels will be visible.

display_layout.xml.zip

This archive contains an updated version of the run-forge.jar file. This is from rev 1651 on the SVN. It also contains three new files and they should be placed in the /res/gui/ directory. These files are named:

display_layout.xml
display_new_layout.xml
gui.properties

The battlefield layout for the new and the old GUI displays now use separate display_layout.xml files. You will be able to shift back and forth between the new and the old style GUI battlefield displays. Once again, we thank Snacko for his efforts.

Wow, look at that list of fixes and features! Plus, 264 new cards, and suspend and madness are now supported!

You guys never cease to amaze.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have Forging to do.

Awesome, best yet version! Thanks Chris =D>

It would be sad if a new version is worse than the one before. But yes, at least the number of new interesting cards is staggering.

Thanks for preparing it for the public Chris!

If only I had updated the list of cards that don't appear in AI decks (since I know a few new cards with which the AI has problems).

Thank you guys for the kind words. I am just starting to discover how much time it takes to put this all together as a package for downloading. :wink:

I have to say, I love the new GUI for a couple of reasons. Really great work there.

However, I do sometimes play on my netbook, and for netbook users, the new GUI has issues. And when I switch back to the old one, the cards I play don't show up on the battlefield (I can put land out, but I can never tap it because I can't see it). Is this a known bug or just an issue on my end?

(maybe make a backup first of your version, just to be sure)

Awesome new version guys.

That is one HUGE mana pool icon :shock:

Too bad you fixed the lifegain bug in Ajani's Pridemate :twisted:

Just kidding...

Keep up the good work.

Yeah, it might just be an issue for me. Some kind of weird bug.

It's possible that your landpanel size is set to some tiny number... on your netbook, try replacing the contents of display_layout.xml (found in /res/gui) with the following:

Okay, I'll take a look at that.

Also, it still doesn't change the fact that I do love the new GUI. On my main home computer, it works brilliantly. And it looks fantastic.

The new GUI on the netbook, however, has some weird issues. Like the window that shows the various phases/steps of the turn is no longer visible. I can't pull it down either. I can hit the buttons on it fine, but I have to keep track of what phase I'm in mentally.

The card pictures look all blurry now (even the HQ ones). They didn't before. You can barely read the cards now (and yes, I realize you can read them above the picture where some card info is displayed, but I love reading them from the actual card art as it feels like I'm looking at real cards). So, something has changed there as far as how the images are displayed.

Just keep in mind that these aren't complaints so much as that I'm just pointing out issues people might encounter on netbooks that run the 1024x600 resolution with the new GUI. I tend to play Forge much more frequently on my main home computer anyway, but it was nice having a version that worked when I was between classes at school.

We can probably write a script to make that easier too :-)

It's possible that your landpanel size is set to some tiny number... on your netbook, try replacing the contents of display_layout.xml (found in /res/gui) with the following:

I tried a game with the New GUI check box unchecked and had the same problem. There were only three rather than five panels visible. I tried your suggestion and I now have all 5 panels displayed.

But when I check the New GUI check box I have to resize these panels again. The space taken by the land panels become a very large border between three zones. A screen shot might help.

Yeah, in the new gui, you don't really use the land panel.

Okay, I'll take a look at that.

Also, it still doesn't change the fact that I do love the new GUI. On my main home computer, it works brilliantly. And it looks fantastic.

Probably the reason the pictures don't look as nice is because some low quality resizing algorithm is being used (faster, I guess?). I wonder if it's possible to use a nicer one.
