Forge 01/14/2011 (unofficial BETA) version

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

5995 cards in total.

This version is based upon the revision # 5148 which is found on our SVN.

Sloth, Dennis and Choppic worked together to contribute a neat, new feature for the New GUI Battlefield display. There are now three symbolic icons that will overlay creature cards. These icons are used to denote summoning sickness and whether a creature is attacking or blocking. Please note that you must use the new GUI battlefield display. The battlefield icons are 32 x 32 pixel .png type pictures. You may be able to replace them with icons from one of the PD icon archives that can be found on the internet.

The New Game window that is displayed when you first start Forge now has a nice picture used as a background. The current picture is just a temporary picture to give you an idea of what this will look like when finished. If you want to replace this picture then copy a new picture of your choice into the /forge/res/images/ui/ folder. The code will look for a file named "newgame_background.jpg" in this folder.

The constructed mode deck editor card filters are now icons rather than the old style checkbox type filters. The deck editor filter icons are now 24 x 24 pixel .png files. The constructed mode deck editor now includes three textboxes that you can use to apply additional filtering to the cards that are listed in the All Cards table. These three filters allow you to filter by card name, type, and text.

I found a utility to remove the hidden Mac-related files. 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.

- Another deck editor mod. Tooltips and the three textboxes will now grow in width as the window enlarges. A minor change to the text displayed for the card totals allows the text point size to be returned to the larger 14 point size.
- Cleaned the card text for Lavaclaw Reaches and Slow Motion.
- Revamped methods called by Ability_Cost.toString() to make generated text closer to oracle text in the the case of ability costs like "Cost<1/X>".
- Fixed NPE in Identity Crisis.
- Fixed potential NPE in Psychic Drain.
- Converted Kabira Crossroads to keywords.
- Started working on Single-Pane Quest UI.
- Renamed book icon for consistency.
- More work on new Quest UI.
- Completed rewrite of Bazaar panel. New code is not active, but can be seen by invoking forge.quest.Gui_QuestOptions.
- Added ValidPlayer parameter to Sacrificed trigger mode.
- Added "kicked" and "notkicked" to hasProperty.
- Separated tap & untap trigger modes again.
- Added ValidPlayer parameter to SpellCast.
- Fixed ValidPlayer parameter of Sacrificed triggermode.
- Forge will now read cards from cardsfolder/cardsfolder.zip if present; this might improve startup time on some systems.
- Replaced the 32 x 32 deck editor filter icons with the new 24 x 24 deck editor filter icons.
- Minor edit of the deck editor.
- Moved the damage prevention of Protection to staticDamagePrevention.
- Removed the canDamage function.
- The Player can now also manually distribute combat damage when an attacking creature with trample is blocked by only one creature. (This fixes the trample + lifelink issue and is correct ruleswise).
- Improved the AI handling of trampling creatures.
- Minor text edits for a few cards to more closely match Gatherer.
- Cleanup of combat damage assignment. Fixed a bug with Double Strike.
- Improved the AI handling of trampling creatures.
- FindBugs inspired housekeeping.
- Fixed what appeared to be a slight bug in the chump blocking code for ComputerUtil_Block2.getBlockers.
- Another deck editor mod which should help to limit the width to a max of 1400 pixels. Useful for large screen monitors.
- Added new keyword: Split second. Added Wipe Away (from Time Spiral) as an example of Split second.
- Updated Quagnoth and Take Possession which had hacked or no implementations of Split second and converted to the real thing.
- Updated Celestial Crusader to have Split second.
- Fixed Fault Line (AB -> SP).
- AF_Token stack description tweaks for drawbacks and readability.
- Added One Dozen Eyes (from Mirrodin). This is a reasonable example of how to do Entwine.
- Fixed calls to runTrigger regarding Taps and Untaps.
- Removed End-of-phase trigger option.
- Triggerhandler now runs all triggers in APNAP order.
- Removed a bunch of debug output that might cause more of that string compatibility trouble we've had before.
- In an attempt to make triggers work with the dreaded "intervening if" clause, the trigger handler wraps the triggered ability in another ability which does the checking again. Works with "ETB with Metalcraft" guys like Bleak Coven Vampires at least.
- Added PresentZone and PresentPlayer companion parameters to IsPresent.
- Added a Clear Filter button to the deck editor. It appears to work correctly.
- Moved trigger points for Attacks-mode.

- Fixed canPlay for Meteor Crater.
- Fixed Unnerve and Witch Hunter.
- Simplified text for Worm Harvest.
- Fixed Unearth mistakenly being Exiled after it Resolves.
- Fixed emdash converted letter that Gatherer produces.
- Unearth really should be straight exiled, not sacrificed.
- Re-added Blocks-mode for triggers (Options are always good ^^;)
- Fixed typo in celestial mantle.
- Card.getText() was not appending the Champion text to cards with the Champion keyword. This is fixed and we no longer need this text in the text field.
- Fixed emdash C/P from gatherer in One Dozen Eyes.
- Fixed card text for Solar Tide and Barbed Lightning.
- Set a default button in the Deck Editor. Now you can type a filter, then hit enter and BAM! Filtered.
- Replaced the P0M1 counter with an actual M0M1 counter. (only affected Shield Sphere.)
- Replaced the P0M2 counter with M0M2 counter. (only affected Spirit Shackle.)
- Fixed the combat damage assignment bug.
- Fixed a bug where a trampling attacker controlled by the AI gets blocked by 2 creatures it can't kill.
- Little fixes and updates to card txts and themes.
- Re-added Blocks mode to triggerhandler.
- Added a clearTriggersNew() method for cards (turned out to be necessary when hardcoded cards want a trigger and provide an overridingability)
- Expanded the wrapper ability in triggerhandler. No, seriously, it's EXPANDED. Mostly to fix problems with targeted triggered abilities not targeting, but also to cover all possible similar corner cases (seeing as hardcoded overriding abilities can use any one of those methods theoretically.)
- Added a red burn theme.
- Updated the BR Goblin theme.
- Added a tool tip to the apply filter button. Some clean up of the deck editor class.
- Converted Astral Steel, Brain Freeze and Scattershot to keyword.
- Converted Dragonstorm, Grapeshot and Tendrils of Agony to keyword.
- Converted Haze of Rage to SP$PumpAll.
- Converted Scourge of Kher Ridges to AB$DamageAll.
- Updated the SetInfo.
- Added TurnFaceUp trigger-mode.
- Fixed setInfoScript.py to be platform independent.
- Fixed Elvish Vanguard stack description to be for Elvish Vanguard instead of the card coming into play.

Yep, thank you.

Oh, we should not forget the many bug fixes.

[slowe]

Awesome, as usual.
It's nice to see so many new cards I was wishing Forge included - heck, it's great to see so many cards period! Big thanks to all the contributors.

[Zay]

I would like to thank you guys for all your work on Forge. I have been really enjoying playing it.

Hi all,

A few testing foci for this version:
1) Vesuvan Doppelganger
2) Astral Slide
3) Cryptic Command
4) Reaper King
5) Temporal Aperture (1 known bug for not being removed from zone properly; see Bugs thread)
6) Lich
7) Research the Deep

simply because they were complicated to program.

Also, have a look at:
1) Championing
2) abilities/spells that "damage all"
3) watch the AI playing cards that cause lose life when enter the battlefield

Outstanding work! My thanks to all involved.

It may just be a placebo effect on my part, but the deck editor seems to be working much faster now. I've got a huge, stupid deck with 4 of however many cards I've felt like adding so far (about 10,500 cards in the deck so far - it's a bit tedious manually adding them all, so I just do a few at a time). That deck took forever to open or change in the last beta's editor, but the new one has no problem with it.

It's still pretty slow to play, but that's the price I pay for doing something ridiculous.

Maybe I'm just running fewer background processes, or even imagining the speed difference, but I'll take it either way!

Have you had a chance to try out the new filtering? Do you like the icons?

[anikitin]

Great work! Thanks to all the devs!
Absolutely love the summoning sickness counters - very useful addition! Don't know what the purpose of hints in card shop is - when I point at a word or number, a pop-up appears with that piece of text right next to the text itself. I think it's a bit unneccessary=)
Also, in my opinion, attackers and blockers kind of blur together in the combat log window. I think blocking creatures would stand out more if there were no "---<" before their names, just empty spaces.
By the way, what's the purpose of "play sound" checkbox in menu? Are there any sounds in Forge now?

[Chris H.]

I think that the pop-up tool tip is to display the full price of a card. Some cards have a price that is too large to display in the column and they tend to get cut off. I always wondered how much was that Mox in the window.

There is a sound file located in the /res/sound/ folder. Turn the option on and try it out.

[anikitin]

I tried it and nothing happened - I'm assuming tap.mp3 is played when a card is tapped?
By the way, hint pop-ups for opponents are great - now "opponents notes" button is pretty much obsolete!

[Chris H.]

I tried it with both of the GUI display modes and did not hear a tapping sound. Recent changes to the code base may have deactivated this code.

This sound was added at the same time as the HQ pics and people noticed a number of stack heap type error exceptions. I would ignore it for now.

[timmermac]

Are the new deck editor icons supposed to just be in the main window deck editor, or should they be in the quest mode deck editor as well? I've not opened the main window editor yet, just the quest mode, and the new filter icons don't seem to be present there.
