[quote]Merry Christmas. You have been good so there are lots of Manalink gifts to give. In fact, this release is probably my favorite ever, since half-a-dozen different people had a hand in its creation.
Just make sure you have a lot of free bandwidth, since there are some seriously heavy downloads. You may want to back up your magic folder before downloading, since there are lots of changes here.

Files (I would recommend getting them all)
Latest Code Patch (required):or

Non-Card Art (required):or

CardArtNew:or

CardArtLim: (the .jpg files should all go into a new folder called c:magiccardartlim)or

As always, don’t worry about virus warnings. One of the new files in the code patch specifically deletes certain files, which is practically a virus by definition.

First, the non-card updates
1) Switcher.exe is gone. Instead, there are now 2 separate versions that you can run directly (Magic.exe and MagicLimited.exe). Use one for constructed play and one for limited. If you want, you can also switch between the versions in-game through the ‘Switcher’ button. (Thanks to Snacko for answering lots of questions about dll’s, and Mathusalem for updating the art)
2) To delete old draft decks, you can now choose that option under ‘Tools’ while in the Limited version.
3) If you edit or create cards, use CardEditor.exe and CardEditorLimited.exe instead of SkyMagicEditor. (SkyMagicEditor is still required). You no longer have to run csv2dat.exe after making changes. On the down side, if you are using CardEditorLimited, make sure to close it out before running the game, or your changes will not work. Bad things will also happen if you close the command prompt window before closing the limited editor.
4) New deck builder art! You can thank gmzombie for writing the code and mathusalem for the art update.
5) A bunch of new challenges have been added, with 5 new cards to unlock: http://www.slightlymagic.net/wiki/Challenge_Mode#Challenge_Descriptions_and_cards_to_get_unlocked. There are also 2 new decks added to the challenge Gauntlet.

Emeria Enchantress: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/td/68

A lot of these cards are only lightly tested, so make sure to report those bugs, and include savegames when possible.
Known Bugs:
-Nether Void makes spells cost 3 more, and does not counter them
-Goblin Raiding Party does not have Pro White
-Goblin War Drums/Two-Headed Dragon: Multiple blocking works poorly for AI

Enjoy! Other than bug fixes, this is the last version I plan on releasing for at least a month.[/quote]
