Cactus Game Design Message Boards

I've add the new promos Shobach, Goshen and Spirit as a Dove as well as updated the TexP release to correct a few errors people pointed out in the original version.

Download the TexP RTS file with all the new promos(!!!) by clicking on this link.

Extract both files from the download using your favorite zip software.

Save the cards.txt file to your C:\Program Files\RTS folder.

Save the pics folder to your C:\Program Files\RTS folder and say "Yes" when it asks if you want to overwrite existing files.

That should be all you need to do.  If you encounter problems let me know and I'll try to help you

Blessings!

Stuck'd

GOshen is the only one that we can use in RTS right not though correct?  because it is the only one that is released so far that I know of.

We couldn't use Haman until after a State and we couldnt use Gates until after a Regional so I'm not sure that we can use them all.  I would like to know when they are going to be released though so I can know when to put them into my decks

I'm pretty sure you just made that up.  

People were legally using both Haman and Gates as early as March when I added them to RTS.  You don't have to own a card in real life to use it in RTS or ROOT.

ANd I was told by Xcalebx that a deck that I made with Haman was illegal when I played it in early April since there had not been a state.  He forced me to use it as a no SA card.

This has been a CONSTISTENT problem with ROOT.  The rules are not clear and too many people have interpretations that cause confusion when games are played online.  We cannot always appeal to a "judge" for a quick ruling on things so it is best to have CLEAR rules outlined about what can and cannot happen that is easily accessed for these games.

So For the Record, ANY card that can be found on RTS at ANY time is legal? 

yes, well thanks for your opinion, but I would rather have an official response to my query.  i.e. someone named Soul Seeker, Prof Underwood or BrianGabe.

Apparently at that time I was told you couldn't play unreleased cards.............................sorry?

So...you actually listened to Caleb?

You are a mean person.

For the record, both Spirit as a Dove and Goshen were added to the tournament application for this fall's local tournaments.

Also, Gabe, the link did not work for me...told me the source file could not be read... help... 

Sorry for the delay.  Everything should be live again.

Gabe, downloaded the file, unzipped it, nothing happened. Don't see anywhere special where I need to save the files as you suggested, what do I need to do?

He answered this in the first post:

Save the cards.txt file to your C:\Program Files\RTS folder.

Save the pics folder to your C:\Program Files\RTS folder and say "Yes" when it asks if you want to overwrite existing files.

My RTS guide has similar instructions for finding and replacing files as well.
