Wagic team member leungclj has announced on the forums that there's a new version out for wololo's Magic the Gathering homebrew game. Lots of changes in this one, including some sweet GUI updates and a further increase in the number of cards available.



Here's the full changelog for Wagic, The Homebrew ?! v0.9.1:
  • Around 500 new cards. Wagic now allows you to play with more than 3500 cards out of the box. Wagic allows you to play with cards from Zendikar, Magic 2010, and 30 other expansions. This is not counting all the extra content you can get from the forum at http://wololo.net/forum: Naruto, Final Fantasy, and lots of other user-created sets.
  • New shop GUI, with original graphics(see the cool screenshots above). Many thanks to Jhotun for the background image!
  • New user interface inGame. It is highly customizable, check the options. Wagic now has some smooth animations, youÂ’ll love the new manapool!
  • Deck Statistics in the deck editor now show you how well your deck performs against the AI, and various useful information (average mana cost, etcÂ…)
  • New Profile and Theme systems to customize your play environment. Check the Jade Theme! Also come to http://wololo.net/forum to get new themes!
  • Various card bug fixes
  • Deck Editor improved, you can now rename your decks directly in Wagic without an external text editor
  • Improved card graphics (Thanks J and Jeck)
  • Parser: new keywords (@damaged, @tapped, deathtouch, initimidate, “other” keyword for targets, “this” keyword for targets, kicker, “X” as part of abilities cost, shuffle
  • New caching mechanism, no need for you to setup the “size” of your cache anymore, the cache automatically uses as much Ram as possible.
  • New cool Game manual, check it out, it teaches you how to play Wagic!
  • Small AI improvements
  • More than 20 new AI Decks (Thanks Psyringe,Niegen,Abrasax and everyone who contributed)
  • Added an exception plugin to prevent the PSP from crashing in case of a bug. Instead, youÂ’ll get a blue screen. (Thanks to Sakya at ps2dev)
Known issues:
  • Purple Screen of Despair: If the game has a weird purple look and feel at startup, you just got the Purple Screen of Despair. But donÂ’t trash your PSP yet, thereÂ’s hope. We are looking for solutions to this problem, and a few techniques can be found here
  • Blue Screen of Death: We recently added an exception handler to avoid your PSP from badly freezing. If you get a blue screen of death, itÂ’s a bad thing because it means you found a bug in Wagic, but itÂ’s a good thing because your PSP didnÂ’t completely crash (so you donÂ’t have to reboot it, and PSP3000 users know how important it is to not reboot their PSPs)
  • Check the list of bugs before you report an issue, thanks :)

Thank you Wagic team and other contributors!

This is definitely one of my favorite PSP homebrew. If anyone has a problem with the new version while using PSP-1000 5.00m33-6, you could rename the included alternate.pbp to eboot.pbp. I don't know what is the actual difference of the files (except eboot.pbp is bigger). Maybe someone could enlighten us. Before this I saw two small screens with a purple background even though I made a fresh installation.

People that have CFW use it to pirate not to play crappy Magic Homebrew games which is like 90's ***** on their PSP

ROFL

portable: by the looks of it there is no point trying to cram some sense in that head of yours



Just get the ***** off and stop with your pointless comments if you dont like it dont *****ing comment you dumb ass



There are some people that actually appreciate awesome games like this and would like to play magic the gathering on their psps



custom firmware is not only to pirate games yes that is one of the biggest reasons for getting it but its about running cool homebrew like psptube, emulaters, wagic and lots more as well

wow

really great piece of homebrew. this is what CFW was made for people. wololo is a *****in god.

I like it.....

Can't stand the haters.... just for the record I am not a fat ass, and Magic was not around when I was in high school. I think the Wagic version is an excellent start at creating a mobile version of the game. There is an easy solution for the haters, don't download it. Go back to playing checkers since thats all your brain can handle.
