ML3 Installation FAQs

Q: The game crash when I try to run it in Windows Vista/Windows 7?
A: Please be sure to put Magic.exe into the white list of your antivirus.
For Avast user, please put the location of the Magic.exe in the Trusted Processes white list in the Behavior Shield tab (example).
Try also to disable visual theme in the compatibility tab of the executable properties (right click on Magic.exe > Properties > Compatibility tab > select Disable visual theme option)

Q: Everything installs fine, but the text for the menus / cards is missing.
A: Restart your computer.

Q: Will these new cards be added to Shandalar?
A: No. None of the new features apply to Shandalar.

Q: Can I play in multiplayer with ML3?
A: You can, but multiplayer code was not modified since Manalink 2.0, so many new cards will not work or desynch the game. Check the Multiplayer Dueling section.

Q: The download says the files contain a virus. Help!!
A: Don't worry. No viruses here. The Magic.exe program shuffles a lot of files around (including deleting files), so it sometimes gets recognized as a virus. Do not be alarmed, that program is perfectly safe.

Q: One card or Challenge/Draft is bugged
A: Any card or bugged gameplay can be reported in the Bug section, please use the appropriate format described here for submitting a bug and if possible attach an screenshot or a savegame to it
