Cockatrice on Mac doesn't download images. Hi everyone, since I haven't found any working solution here or elsewhere I would like to ask for help again. Advance map download mac. I'm new to Cockatrice and running it on a mac. I downloaded and converted the database with the oracle tool and have created some decks in Cockatrice.
This is in a very rough but workable build. Not all card images are in but will be updated when HQ images are provided. Keep in mind that much of Hearthstone is automated, and this will be much slower. However, this is a good way to get started theorycrafting with your friends and having fun!
Update: Build 1.2: Card database now online! Added a few tokens.
Installing HSPort
- Download and Install Cockatrice (Windows) or Cockatrice (Mac)
- Download the HSP Package. (~200kb)
- Open Cockatrice, File > Settings, Path>Cards database, and point to cards.xml in the HSPort folder (this will most likely crash the client, it should still apply however).
- In the same menu, Path > Tokens, point to tokens.xml in the HSPort folder
- In the Appearance menu, Path > Card Back, point to card_back.jpg in the HSPort folder
- Connect online at Address: play.woogerworks.com Port: 4747
- Create/Join a game (Note: this community is primarily for Magic: the Gathering, play with your friends!)
Importing a Deck
- Basic decks can be found here.
- To build your own deck, use ctrl+N to start from scratch and add cards in manually.
- To use custom decks, Deck Editor>Import from Clipboard and paste in the pre-built deck (Format is simply [# CardName] per line, no brackets)
Setting up
Cockatrice is configured for Magic: the Gathering, but with a few changes it can house a basic template for Hearthstone.
- Set HP to 30 (Left click HP).
- Remove your Hero Card from the library (Right click library, view all cards, drag and drop to center field). Your deck should have 30 cards without your hero.
- Set up often used tokens. (ctrl+T brings up the token menu. Fill in the title field, with capitalization, exactly as written. For example, on Thrall it would be wise to create all 3 totems and place them on the sideboard for when needed).
- Add an initial mana crystal. (ctrl+T + title: Mana Crystal) Use ctrl+J on this token to add a mana crystal each turn (max 10). Tap the crystal to “consume” it for the turn.
- For rules on how to play Hearthstone, refer to http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/forum/topic/8414831807
Gameplay Tips
- This is best played with a voice server.
- Any time an effect creates a token, use ctrl+T and type in the name of the minion and its power/toughness. This will auto-create a minion with the correct art.
- Keep in mind cards do not tap in HS, however, the tap motion can still be used to signal the motion. The draw arrow feature can also be used for targeting.
- Abilities that use random effects can use the die. For example, when using Thrall’s totem ability, a player can have each totem represented by the die landing on 1, 2, or 3.
- Copying a card is done by the command ctrl+J, if the card needs to be put into a player’s hand, a new token needs to be created with the do not destroy box checked.
Gameplay Workarounds
- “Armor” – Can be shown on the hero using counters
- Additional granted mana (Innervate + others) – Blue mana counters
- Sense Demons and other “random search library” cards – View library, check for number of creatures > roll die for number of creatures.
- Thoughtseize – Right click library, show library to other player. That player then creates a token of two cards (check Do Not Destroy).
- “Secret” cards – Drag and drop the card from your hand while holding down shift to play a card face down.
Please provide feedback for any additions or corrections to the game or to this website.
