Gives the user the opportunity to earn some credits for performing various tasks.
Known bugs removed, tested stability-wise, not so much game-wise.
Lots of to-dos and ideas still remaining, better balance between task difficulty and their rewards needed - please comment.
Usage:
Enter shop, open menu, select 'See available tasks'.
All tasks in the list are active, until they expire ('Days left'; day passes after each duel (won, lost or quited)).
You can finish any of the tasks and get bonus. For particular task, the bonus gets a bit smaller every day (until expiration).
- Language is now an option at startup
- "text" line translation for cards made easier, check Res/lang/xx_cards.txt
- TODO: test on PSP/Linux, performance issues ? Allow possibility to change language in options menu

Although the feature is named "cheat mode", its main purpose is to provide a toolbox for content creators. Currently this means to help AI deck creators, but the cheat mode is easily extensible.
Features:
- To enable cheat mode, create a new profile with the super secret cheat name (shouldn't be hard to find - or just mail me if you don't want to look). Then, leave and re-enter the Options menu. You can now enable cheat mode on the first tab. Note: The secret profile name is *not* my original suggestion from the forum, I went with Jeck's alternative suggestion so that he won't have to cringe over bad puns everytime he's using it. ;)
- Complete collection: In cheat mode, there's a new option in the deck viewer, which makes sure that you have at least 4 of any card available.
- Deck integrity: When in cheat mode, and you load a deck with cards that are not present in your collection, then these cards won't be stripped from your deck any more. Instead, they are added to your collection.
- Money cheat: In cheat mode, when you click on an item in the shop, you get the option to steal 1,000 credits from the shopkeeper.
Please review my code - I just started with C++, I may make very obvious mistakes or use inelegant style. The sooner you point this out, the sooner I'll improve.
thanks to wololo and jeck for comments and suggestions.
Jeck: Do the setVisible and setHidden methods currently work? I tried to use them to hide a menu item, but they all seem to lead to empty methods - Perhaps placeholders for a not yet implemented functionality?
* The alternate theme is just useful for testing themes, but please comment on the changes to the main theme.
* Options reading and initializing separated from UI.
* Options UI abstracted a bit, made more easily extensible.
* With some extension, the options UI could be used as the basis for more complicated themes, if we load a file and use it to do stuff like GameStateOptions::Start()
- fix issue 65 (quads when no image load slowly in shop/deck editor)
- Possibly fix issue 92, please let me know if it reproduces
- Fix issue 97 (Deck editor: weird behavior of deck display)
- Fix issue 39 - please verify
- Issue 56 can probably be closed as well
- Fix issue 86
-Issue 26: added an option for Mana Display. This needs a bit testing, but it should also lower the priority of "manapool slowness" as this mode probably fixes performance issue as well.
-I can't seem to be able to "save" some options (hand position, mana display) ion the windows version, does this change break something ?
CAREFUL : this update REVERSES the triggers default actions.
* Make the right trigger opens the hand and the left trigger skips to
next phase.
* Add an option to reverse triggers (and thus revert to old style).
* Decks now support naming and renaming. Also added a "Switch decks without saving" option.
* Removed unused static const char * menuTexts, from old 6-deck limited system
* Keypad didn't display correctly when not given a title, and was never destructed. Fixed.
* profileFile() default behavior was to fall back to RESPATH/player. Fixed.
* New iconspsp.png, updated look to seem like PSP buttons, added some extra (unused) button icons.
* Cache now tracks missing textures for RetrieveQuad, not just RetrieveCard/RetrieveTexture.
* Profile options are no longer overwritten when switching profiles.
* Main menu notifies of alternate profile- "Database: X" becomes "Profile: Y of X cards."
* Boosters iterates through cards, replacing duplicates. Stops after 15 tries to prevent infinite loops on small sets.
* Very simplistic theme switcher, only displays when alternate themes are present.
* New interface.
* This breaks a lot of things. It is not feature-equivalent. It
probably doesn't compile under windows and doesn't work on PSP.
* Damage is not resolved any more. This will have to be fixed.
* Blockers can't be ordered any more. This will have to be fixed.
* A lot of new art is included.
- InGame Text display is now an option
- Fixed *Duos in SHM, benalish knight, beeligerent hatchling, removed demigod of revenge (needs extensive testing)
- added "ueot" for p/t and abilities gaining in the parser, as part as the fix for safehold duo
- Moved "extraPayment" cancel verification into ActionLayer (was in GuiLayers)
- added "HUDDisplay" MTGAbility (displays damage/graveyard info)
- Added option to NOT interrupt own's spells and abilities. Allows smoother gameplay. We should add a "quick options" menu ingame to change those options on the fly
- It is now possible to have avatars associated to each Deck
- Added SFX
- Added Music files
- Possibility to choose your opponent
- Opponents' difficulty is measured according to their number of victories against a given deck
