...You know, I feel like an idiot for not doing that the first time. Probably because I thought something different happened when I downloaded it before the updates.  After all, that is how I got it to work to begin with.  Issue resolved, it works just fine now.

Hiya! I've been playing for a couple of months with some friends and we play only by opening packs rather than picking from the large card pool of all available cards. I noticed some packs were missing which means some cards aren't ever able to be pulled. Is this by design or just don't currently have the time to put into it? Just a curiosity I had when I discovered Bloomburrow Commander packs weren't available.

Also, I dunno if it's a bug or just not available yet but opening packs for Edge of Eternities produces no cards.

In regards to the Mac version problems people are having here is what I've found. I'm not a mac person so this may be off base but what my research shows me is that the Mac adds a quarantine attribute to downloaded files (like the zip archive) to mark it as potentially unsafe. That quarantine attribute gets applied to everything in the archive and it goes through more strict checks. The validation checks are more aggressive. Because the code is unsigned, this is why MacOS is claiming that it's damaged (it isn't). If you manually unzip the archive to a location (open with -> archive utility) and remove the quarantine flags it should work.

Bug Report Forum / Mac version will not open
Last post by Hisuian Snow - August 26, 2025, 06:06:15 PM
Since some of the later versions of Lackey have made other editions no longer able to connect to the game server, about 2 months ago, I have been unable to update my Lackey. I've followed all the steps correctly, but now whenever I try to open Lackey I get the message ""LackeyCCG" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash." and it only gives me the option to cancel or move it to the trash.  I do not know if this is an issue with Lackey or MacOS, but as I am not very well versed in technology, I do not know how to fix this problem.  Anyone else have this issue, or better yet, solved it?

Last post by Alastair - August 23, 2025, 10:59:31 PM
The new version of LackeyCCG, 1.1.4 (August 23 2025), is now available for both Windows and Mac. The game server has already been enabled to allow connections from the new client.

https://www.lackeyccg.com/downloads.html

Fixes and Changes:
Spectators were still being considered in some visibility lists when they shouldn't have been.
Made it so the client version is visible in a player's info when clicked on in the game browser's player list.
You can now paste cards into their appropriate super zones if they're separated in the text that's copied to/from the clipboard.
Fixed decks saving and loading cards into the wrong zone.
Fixed library columns not being saved in plugins that didn't have card packs defined.
Fix for crash on MacOS for games going on for lengthy periods of time. Cards can't be both 90 degrees and 270 degrees at the same time.
Zone visibility was not persisting and was getting reset by plugins. Should be fixed now.

In the event anyone is still interested in INWO online, there is an OCTGN package with higher-res images and a bunch of automation built in. If this creator comes back, I am happy to help update the images for this package.

General Discussion Forum / New LackeyCCG Release: 1.1.3 (...
Last post by Alastair - July 26, 2025, 05:21:09 PM
The new version of LackeyCCG, 1.1.3 (July 26 2025), is now available for both Windows and Mac. The game server has already been enabled to allow connections from the new client. Old clients will be disabled later tonight since some of the changes require clients to be handling seats the same way at the game table.

https://www.lackeyccg.com/downloads.html

Fixes and Changes:
  Column sizes persist per plugin now.
  Fix to prevent spectators from seeing play zones they shouldn't be able to see.
  LackeyCCG now uses a build version and date. This one is 1.1.3 (July 26 2025)
  Fix to prevent seating from getting messed up should positions change and the host start a new game.

Hey everyone,

As someone who's spent a lot of time working with plugin visuals, tokens, and layouts for card games, I'm always on the lookout for smart visual design ideas — especially when it comes to clarity, atmosphere, and consistency.

I recently came across this article on jogos com estilos de arte únicos and thought it could be a solid source of inspiration. It's a showcase of games with standout art direction — not just pretty assets, but visuals that really support the gameplay and user experience.

It made me wonder —
What games do you think nailed their visual identity, either in card games or beyond?
Are there any titles you draw from when designing tokens, layouts, or interface elements?

Would love to hear your thoughts, references, or examples!

Last post by Alastair - July 09, 2025, 07:41:08 AM
The new verison of LackeyCCG (07-08-25) is now available for Windows and Mac both. The game server will be restarted shortly. Currently allowed clients are the 06-30 client and the 07-08 client.
https://www.lackeyccg.com/downloads.html

Fixes and Changes:

The hardcoded backslash key has been unbound and replaced with a user selectable keybinding to show the card text box when hovering of a card. This was primarily done to allow non-US keyboards the opportunity to bind a common function to whatever key they need on their keyboard. You can find this new bind under Preferences->Key Bindings->Main Menu Functions: Enable Text Box

The windows updater application has been disabled and pointers to it in Lackey have been removed.
Deck sorting by dates in the deck browser has been fixed.

Changes to the build process for MacOS now allows OS versions 10.13 and newer to run Lackey. If your OS is 10.13 or newer and you still can't run LackeyCCG then contact us for further trouble shooting.
Pack images correctly appear again in legacy pack definitions.

Fallback code has been added to pack handling. Plugin maintainers can now use pack images without having to individually define them by simply making the image name the same as the pack name.
