Hey All,

The newly updated version of the Redemption plugin for LackeyCCG can be found at

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dqk9n95kpleizw7/AAA5iwAihZEGsu4M2yaCXIWka

There are three files found here.  You will only need one of the three...

Full-1.2.1.zip is 147 MB and contains all of the cards. It is intended for people who have not installed the Redemption plugin previously.

Update-1.2.1.zip is less than 4 MB and contains the configurations for all sets, but only contains images for the Early Church set. It is intended for players who have been using the Redemption plugin previously but have not upgraded to the 1.2 version.

DecksAndPacks-1.2.1.zip is a 500kB patch file that contains only the newly updated decks and packs files. This is for players who previously updated to the 1.2 version of the plugin, and then found that the starter decks did not work and that they could not play booster/sealed.

Each of these zip files contains a README.txt and another zip archive. The README.txt contains installation/upgrade instructions. Please *read* the README.txt before you install/upgrade  your system.

Notes: The cards and card abilities are those of the 2nd printing, as I was not sure how cards in the original printing were to be handled. Now that that information is available, I will create a second, smaller update that has just the 1st printing cards which are different from the final versions. I will let you know when that is ready.

During the original 1.2 update, I changed the set names to reflect the actual name of the set, and retired the field RealSet from the configuration file. This was done to clean up the plugin, to make maintenance easier. Unfortunately I did not realize that this would break all existing decks that had been created. This update contains new version of the starter decks, but all previous personal decks will need to be rebuilt, and I apologize for that. If anyone has a deck that they cannot recreate, please figure out a way to send me the original and I will update it for you.

Thanks to mathman1550 for updating the starter decks (and providing some new ones). It would have taken considerably longer to get this out, had I needed to do the work myself.

=========================================
    Previously in 1.2
=========================================
This is the update to support the second printing of phase 1 of the Early Church release. In this upgrade changes were made to the names of some of the existing cards that were reprinted in The Early Church. So, for example, The Apostles version of "Blinding Light" became "Blinding Light (Ap)." This was done to keep the naming uniform with what had gone before.

There are some other notable changes:

• The Set name is now the actual set name, and not simply "FirstSet." Related to this, the parameter "Real Set" has been done away with.
• The Artifact, Land of Bondage, and Set Aside zones have been done away with.
• The default card size on the table is now smaller.
• Things have been cleaned up considerably

A major shout out goes to mathman1550 who did the lion's share of the clean up work in the 1.2 release and has implemented a number of other changes.

Lastly (but not leastly ) thanks once again to Rob Anderson for providing permission to and support for distributing this.

Bugs List

• The majority of books/verses are wrong.
• A noticable fraction of cards lack images.
• Some TexP cards are "huge."

Does this program work on both Windows and Macs?

All I want to say is, thank you. Thank you very much for adding Redemption to Lackey! I like it a lot more than RTS. 

when I click the link to mega I get a cloud with a red M in the middle of it and then nothing else happens. Any thoughts?

What browser are you using? I just tried downloading and everything works fine for me with Chrome and Firefox, but I get a (seemingly) similar freeze on IE.

I was using IE I have not made the move to chrome but it's already downloaded I guess it's time lol

 


 

I can understand that...I used AOL e-mail for longer than I care to admit...

I may have done something wrong but keep getting this message when I try to the run the application.

The program can’t start because RakNet.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem. 

I redownloaded all the pieces twice but continue to get the same message.

@jbeers285: After you unzip LackeyCCG you should see a file named RakNet.dll in the same folder as the LackeyCCG.exe executable. Do you see that file?

If not, can you go back to Lackey download (this should be named LackeyCCGBetaWin.zip and be found in your Downloads folder unless you chose to save it under a different name or move it somewhere else), and check to see if the zip file contains the RakNet.dll?  It should be in the folder named LackeyCCG of the zip file.

@Chris: It sounds like your LackeyCCG installation does not have permissions to write to the preference file.

The preferences should be being saved in the Preferences.txt file located in the LackeyCCG/secure folder.  (Secure should be parallel to the plugins folder.) The first thing you can do is bring up the properties for secure and Preferences.txt and check to see if you have write permissions.

Could you also try starting LackeyCCG by right-clicking on the app and then selecting the "Run as administrator" menu option?  Does that appear to work?

I found this on the LackeyCCG site, so it sounds like I may be on the right track.

I've got Lackey up and running if anyone is up for testing with me. Prefer Type 2 but T1 is fine also.

Message me if you're interested!

Running as admin fixed my problem. Thanks, MJB.

I was playing RTSM and what he saw was not what I saw.  It was weird.
