Hi,
So after wrestling for a while with the updatelist.txt file, I finally got it to work. It gets up to the point where it wants to go find the CardImageURLs and crashes after telling me the app needs to reload the plugin. "The plugin has been updated successfully but the changes won't take effect until you reload the plugin". When I hit the reload now button, I get a window that says "Waiting for the plugin to load", then both the iPad and Mac client crash out completely after about a half second.
The CardImageURLs are all formatted thusly:
first/first_e001.jpg http://this-is-my-url.com/thisismypluginname/sets/setimages/first/first_a001.jpg
There are about 900 of those, then:
general/cardback.jpg http://this-is-my-url.com/mypluginname/sets/setimages/general/cardback.jpg
After that is the end of the file.
Any ideas?
Can you give the the actual autoupdate URL so I can test it? PM it to me if you don't want it public.
Hi Trevor, just sent a PM.

cardback.jpg and spawned.jpg should not be included with the card images but rather with the required plugin files at the top, and they should have checksums. I also suggest you save your cardback.jpg and spawned.jpg adjacent to your plugininfo.txt. There are 2 files a plugin requires to run: plugininfo.txt and cardback.jpg. What you were doing is not downloading cardback.jpg immediately, but rather "on demand" which doesn't work with necessary files.
Also, Lackey does not currently support ascii characters other than the basic set. So for example, I don't suggest you use the character for beta.
Thanks, Trevor. This seems to have worked on my computer. I'll try the iPad tomorrow.
Thanks for your prompt response!
