Moving of cards that are currently revealed by "look at top X cards of library" to another zone becomes buggy after searching your library. After you search your library in a match, if you do "look at top X cards of library" and then try and move those cards anywhere else, they no longer disappear from the revealed cards window when moved. Prior to searching your library it works correctly.

Possibly with a custom filter settings, but that is not necessary.

Bug so far http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/46/bug-so-far Sat, 17 Mar 2012 00:15:58 -0400 endersblade 46@/forum/discussions
It seems you have a few sets in VPT that are listed with an "&" sign in them, or there should be, however, within VPT it's just double spaces. Example: "Gateway WPN Promos". I tried naming the folder itself "Gateway & WPN Promos", as well as "Gateway WPN Promos", and neither of them will show up. Premium Deck Series - Fire & Lightning has the same issue.

Giant Badger, from the Book Inserts, doesn't show up, but all the other book inserts do.

Revised (Limited) has no cards under it. I'm also not sure what this is, as I've never heard of a Limited Revised set.

I'm in the process of downloading the image file from this site, though the torrent is going insanely slow. Any other anomalies I find, I'll post here. Otherwise, I really love this program! So much so, I already uninstalled MWS, and I'm an actual paid customer of MWS!]]>

does anyone know where I can find big fulls?
I am lacking full scans with 440*640 or 480*680 pixels from the newer sets, the Scars of Mirrodin and Innistrad Cycle.

Card images have blurry text http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/63/card-images-have-blurry-text Fri, 04 May 2012 19:56:36 -0400 aldwyn 63@/forum/discussions Helpful Template Deck File for Download http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/62/helpful-template-deck-file-for-download Fri, 04 May 2012 18:17:57 -0400 MeVII 62@/forum/discussions AAA(wgbrba)(Nil-C00)Template-01.deck - - - - -

Note: While it is still free, 4Shared has changed there download permission authorizations
requiring an account to download files.
This file comes from my account and it is a safe file.
If you need to create an account, know that Ive had a 4sahred account for years,
and for as long as Ive had it, Ive never gotten SPAMMED by the account.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Since for the moment VPT does not have this information available in the deck editor,
to save the time needed to looks things up or the effort of memorization,
I made this for myself and my friends.
I thought it may be useful to others as well, so I'm posting it here.

- Contents -
In the sideboard, listed as groups, the template deck has the following...
Block expansion / core set pairs,
and
A full list of banned and restricted cards for,
Modern, extended, block, vintage, legacy and classic game formats.
(Lists acquired directly from WotC web site.)

Also I figured Id explain my deck naming system.

AAA = Initials of the deck builder
wgbrba = White, Green etc... if its CAP cards of that color are used in the deck, if its low, there are none.
Nil = Block set abbreviation
C00 = Core set
Template = Deck name
00 = Deck version


Hope this is found useful by some. :)

Create a .DECK file http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/61/create-a-.deck-file Tue, 01 May 2012 20:53:33 -0400 octopusnumber4 61@/forum/discussions Feature Could Solve All My Problems! http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/57/feature-could-solve-all-my-problems Sat, 28 Apr 2012 14:50:41 -0400 Quagie 57@/forum/discussions
What would make my life easier is an offline "Free Table" mode where I can type in the card name, drag the card onto the play area (custom sizable play area with scroll bars for areas exceeding the window size as I prefer windowed mode) using the VPTable UI and arrange everything, add counters, tap/untap manually from there. Adding players is not really even necessary, I can use a creature no one uses and use Counters for life (Woohoo, a use for Mungha Wyrm!). I would actually prefer cards to have no area protections either so I can overlap cards like in normal play.

You kinda see where I am going with this. I don't care about cheating, or online connectivity, or automatic rule checking, or phases. Just speed and manual input. As long as I can manage the 3 other players at the host table mentally, I will be very happy. I may not know much about programming but it looks like most of the foundation is already here. I really hope the team here can help me out.]]>

On "Tower of Murmurs" it should say "on its surface are warnings," instead of just "warning."

On "Tower of Fortunes" it should say "They end," rather than "The end," and "a being called Memnarch," instead of just "call Memnarch."

On "Imperial Edict" it should say "Emperor Xian," instead of "Emporer Xian."]]>

I've sent it to Symantec for analysis and I encourage you to contact them to discuss this with them. Norton is one of the leading antivirus companies so a lot of people will have problems installing or using your program as long as it is detected as malware.]]>

Is there any way to change what packs you chose or to save certain profiles of packs, like the current ones.

For example when we used to use MWS we would each chose three packs and play sealed with those.

Sometimes we would have like 5 color only decks and chose like 8 packs or only artifacts, but you get what I mean.

Any thoughts or input from anyone would be great.

Server down? http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/47/server-downs Sat, 17 Mar 2012 17:26:10 -0400 Jeanne 47@/forum/discussions Small Bugfixes/Features http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/19/small-bugfixesfeatures Sat, 22 Oct 2011 17:37:28 -0400 Kamahl 19@/forum/discussions 2. Searching should cause the card list to become active, since it already selects a card.
3. The card downloading dialog shouldn't be modal, it should be possible to download while making decks.
4. Cards don't always use the latest edition, if I add a card from duels of the planeswalkers to my deck, it's shown it with the old-school border.
5. The portable version of the program takes quite a bit to load the first time (not very important).
6. Remove Item and Decrease Count work almost the same (except decrease count doesn't completely remove the card), you could just make a fifth decrease count remove the card, and Remove Item should remove all cards.
7. Small addition: Make the number of Creatures/Spells/Lands always visible, specially lands.
8. Deck info does nothing (button should be disabled if the feature isn't implemented)
9. Group feature doesn't make much sense (how do I select to which group cards go?).
10. Ctrl-S to save decks :)
11. Filter doesn't show multicolored cards (awesome work on making it show hybrid cards though).
12. Binoculars button next to the search does nothing (should re-search what's written).
13. "Garruk, the Veil Cursed" is Green/Black, but shows as green in the preview.

It's cool to see that Magic Workstation is being remade (in Qt, which means cross platform yey!), the new interface is much more streamlined, very nice. The new game mode is unfortunately similar to the magic workstation one, which I never liked. Still, it's in development and will no doubt become better.

Will you also be making a pro version of this software? Or will you have an alternative form of revenue?

Best of luck to you guys!]]>
Switch Control of Cards? Edit: NVM, found the solution http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/45/switch-control-of-cardss-edit-nvm-found-the-solution Sat, 10 Mar 2012 19:43:53 -0500 cdstephens 45@/forum/discussions
Edit: Nvm, I found that you can use crtl+C/shift+ctrl+C to copy cards by looking through more discussions. My bad.

Btw, awesome software! I used it yesterday with my friend to teach her how to play Magic, and we ended up playing for 10 hours >_>]]>
Tournament Sign Up - Sunday 2/19 http://www.virtualplaytable.com/forum/discussion/35/tournament-sign-up-sunday-219 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 01:46:52 -0500 casion 35@/forum/discussions
This would be a Standard tournament. Which means any cards from Magic 2012, Scars of Mirrodin, Mirrodin Beseiged, New Phyrexia, Innistrad, and Dark Ascension would be fair game in deck creation. If you need more information you can ask in this thread.

Anyway...I have a tentative list of people I believe want to participate. If you would like to be added or removed from this list, just let me know.

Spheniscine
Bonesaw
Sanguinus
JNSiQwa

I would like to have an idea of the participants by the end of Saturday 2/18. So let me know if you're interested at all, even if you're not sure.

I can also be contacted via email: swanton2095@gmail.com

Let's make this happen people!]]>
