Shards patch?

Now that the full Shards spoiler is up on mtgsalvation.com, will there be an unofficial patch coming out soon? I'm not entirely sure if there's a specific timetable for releasing a new set's unofficial patch.

there is a slight possibility we will see one today, its alot of work, especialy when so many cards are put out at once.

So far, there's the unoffical patches on mtgsalvation.

Magic-league will not provide an official patch until after all cards are put to www.gatherer.wizards.com - That will be this Friday.

Just to make things easyier here is the completed patch. I also went in and cleand up a few errors originaly made in the patch.

http://rs534.rapidshare.com/files/148001938/Shards_of_Alara.txt

For those who dont know how to add a set here is how:

1. If go under Tools, Analize/Add/Remove sets
2. Hit Add new addition
3. Type in the name of the set (Shards of Alara)
4. Type in the edition key (Im using SOA)
5. Check "get data from text spoiler"
6. Browse and find the text file you just downloaded.
7. Click Next page.
8. Click Add Eddition
9. If it adds 249 cards with 0 errors you did it right.
10. Save you masterbase right now.
11. Restart MWS and you should be good.

Oh and if you downloaded the previous partial patch, remove it before adding the full set.

I have problems with this patch at generating sealed pools

Will it be able to tell the difference between a rare and a mythic rare in a sealed or draft pool?

I wouldn't count on it if I were you.

I think MWS needs to be adjusted for mythic rare's with sealed generator.. which is something only the dev's can do..

kinda logic when a new type of rarity comes out eh? Smile

it tends to change the rules of how cards are in a pack Wink

Full UNOFFICIAL Shards of Alara patch.
It is very well done and i noticed no errors this far, has flavor text and all.

Mythic rarity is still treated as normal rarity

Mythic rares can't be that harder to implement than timeshifted cards from timespiral block.
