Cactus Game Design Message Boards

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

Could you explain what you mean?

I noticed the TxP cards were not showing up for me unless i resized the image.

Some of the books that the cards were from were wrong like alot of TheDeck characters.

Im reloading the Redemption plugin just in case.

All TxP cards or just some of them?  I just did a quick check and I don't get an image for Jaddua, son of Jonathon.

Didn't get the image where--in the deckbuilder, the game, both?

Crud, I see the bad books.  I must have mucked something up in one of my table sorts. This one is going to take a bit of time to fix (as in maybe not til next week or so). Sorry 'bout that folks.

I went out with green/teal Aaron and Moses, but he saw green Aaron and Moses and the Elders.  After that we realized that we saw none of the same cards.  Some were close, like I saw the new cheribim, but he saw the old one.

Weird. There is a description of something similar on the LackeyCCG boards. I am guessing one of you have a bad card data file, as all of the above could eb caused by an off by one error.

We both reloaded, and I was able to play someone else fine.

RTSManiac will have to get back to me if he sees this happening with other people and the above link from the Lackey site doesn't help.

Also is there a reason that some cards do not have pics?

Yes--those are called bugs.    I have added it to the list of things to chase down.

I am going to make this my official bugs list that I will be updating.

At least half of the TxP cards are huge.  Is there any way to make them the size of normal cards?

Can you provide me a couple of example of "huge" cards and a couple example of "normal-sized" cards?  That will help me track things down.  It could just be the foils that make them look bigger. 

Also, thank you EmJayBee for this new way to play online. It is awesome!

The TxP cards that are enlarged have a larger file. When I edited the size of the card to the same size as the normal cards it was fine. Much like when you create an avatar on a forum and if its too large it wont show up.

I played Red and Mitchrobstew and everything was fine except for thier enlarged TxP cards because of thier file size of the cards I'm sure.

Against Nameless I have no idea and we havent played again yet...( I'm usually available after 10 pm est BTW )

Alot of the pics of cards with " " in the name have no pic.
Some cards have double pics (in my file anyway) like Pretention with a (TxP) version and a (Tp) version

np- just playing around with the program. kinda fun

There is no Kings purple King Saul.

The pic is in the file as well as the special ability. It seems that the special ability is linking to the brown brigade Kings pic though.

I'm just now getting around to playing with Lackey, and I can already see how much work must have gone into imputing all the data. Thank you, MJB, for spending so much time on this.

I would like to try this, but I also want to wait until the download is cleaned up (there is a lot of junk on this computer). How big is the download right now?

The original beta download is still the only download available (so 175 MB or so).

I am in the process of putting together a new distribution that should be ready in the next couple of weeks.

Items already fixed:

• Card scripture reference (in the original beta if the reference is right it is a complete luck).
• Over-large TexP images

Items still scheduled to be fixed:

• Missing/incorrect/bad card images.
• Card names with tons of meaningless quotation marks

I also will have a couple of "how are you using Lackey" questions I will post in a separate thread that may cause some changes.

This distribution is also going to be a full bundled distribution and will overwrite the existing files. So it is going to shrink by a few 10's of MB (at most).

Following this, I am planning on working on a release that separates cards by set/expansion. That will provide the foundation for moving forward on implementing Sealed and Booster Draft.  This may or may not be a bundled distribution. I believe it will, however, take me a month or so to get it ready.

Many thanks for making Redemption available and possible for online playing to whomever is/was involved!

One question: Are there any other Redemption Starter decks also already available for LackeyCCG?

Any way to edit card details? I'm just now trying to build a deck on this and it's hard to edit because some dominants are "Lambs" and "Reapers" and others are "Dominants". Some souls are "Lost Souls" and some are "LS", etc.

Hey Joey.  If you modify the card details you run the very real risk of not having your version of the plugin play nicely with others. In that case, you may see different cards than your opponents or you may not work at all. If you would be willing to get me a list of what the preferred choices would be, I can incorporate it into my version that already has all of the Scripture references correct. 

I apologize to all for the delays in getting the updates out. Life just always seems to interfere.

I downloaded everything to my laptop yesterday and I'm having the "huge" TexP  cards bug. I downloaded the plugin off Mega, should I try the other one?

Thanks again for your work on this Matt!
