First topic message reminder :

J_PROJECT Dueling System Guide



J_Project is a Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading card game dueling system programmed in Phyton programming language. Dueling system was first launched in 2009. It was used very much in that time since other dueling systems were not that good or their cards were not updated. Later it was forgotten since new updates were not available anymore. Lately it is refreshed and updated with new card database and new images and is ready for use again. This guide will show you basics so that you know how to download, install, update and play Yu-GI-Oh! using this dueling system.


(1) Download

Link to the official site of J_Project:

http://code.google.com/p/jbyyxproject/

There is a download section where you can find several files to download. You just need the 1st one. If you are still confused you can follow direct link to download what you need below.

Direct download link:

http://jbyyxproject.googlecode.com/files/J_PROJECT%200.1.6%20Install.exe


(2) Installation

When your download is finished you can proceed to Install the dueling system. Just follow the installation steps as you install all other programs.

Now we need to explain some files located in “J_project” folder. In the main folder important file is “engine.exe”. This is executable of our dueling system. Link that might appear on your desktop, start menu and other places will be a link to this file.

“Skins” folder is a place where your can find files of skins used in dueling system.
“Decks” folder is a place where your deck files are saved. Format of your decks will be “xml”.
“Images” folder is a place where all images of cards are stored.

Other folders are not so important for us so you can explore them on your own.


(3) Update

When you launch your dueling system first time, a messagebox for new update will pop-up. You will of course confirm that you want to update your dueling system. After it finishes updating you will be asked to restart your dueling system.


(4) Menu

Main Screen

Main menu is Deck Construction. On the left side you have list of all cards and “in place” search engine where your search begins as you type letters in the search bar above card list.

In the middle is your deck profile composed of 5 fields: Monsters, Spells, Traps, Fusion (Extra) and Side deck.

On the right side is image and description of selected card.

You can add cards into your deck by double clicking on them in card list section or clicking on “Add” button (red one). There are also “Add to side” and “Remove” buttons for managing your deck. When you finish deck making then you can simply save it with “Save” or “Save As” button. Same is for opening one of your decks with “Open” button. “New” button is clearing screen so you can make a new deck.

If search “in place” is not enough for you and you want more precise searching options then go to “File->Advanced Search” option.
Preferences Screen

Now lets cover some extra options of our dueling system. “Help->Preferences” opens up new dialogue where you can edit Skin, Nick, Hotkeys and few more options. Picture above shows best configuration of those parameters. Never change Language from English to other ones. It can make an error which will restrict launching your dueling system. If it happens accidently you can always open up “Settings.xml” in “J_project” main folder and edit Language manually back to “English” to be able to run dueling system again. Same is if some other things make similar error not allowing you to run executable. Here you can edit your nick name for dueling. Interesting is a new skin named “TheDuelistWinner”. You should try it out. If you want to make your own skin then simply duplicate one skin in “Skins” folder and edit each picture you want in it individualiy. Then select it in this menu. You can also edit Hotkeys that will make your game easier to play. Don't forget to uncheck “Face-up Cards Name”. This will hide text on all face-up cards when dueling and cards look better with no text on them.

(5) Starting duel

If you want to HOST a duel go to “Game->Listen” in the menu bar.

Host Screen

Do not change Port. Now Click on “Get IP” button and it will show you your own IP adress. Copy it and give to opponent you want to duel with. Then click on “OK” button and wait until duel starts.

If you want to JOIN a duel go to “Game->Connect” in the menu bar.
Join Screen

Paste IP adress of your opponent that was given to you and do not change Port. Click on “OK” button and wait until duel starts.

(6) Dueling field

After your duel started, dueling field will appear in new dialogue and you can start to explore how to duel and adapt to new system. It is not necessary to explain each thing individually since everything has small icons and explanation text written. All you need to know is that you can “Drag & Drop” things which makes gameplay very comfortable and to make actions with cards you need to “Right-click” on them. On the right side is “Chatbox” where each move is recorded and where you can talk with your opponent. You have also cool smileys available for use. If you want to explore dueling field before you proceed to duel you can access it by “Game->Test”. "/lp xxxx" or "/lp -xxxx" is code that you can enter in chat to increase/decrease your Life Points by amount you want if fixed values are not suitable for you ("Right-click" on your LP number).

You can't. It works for 1024x768 and bigger resolutions...

Ehh yeah I have a problem with JP ._.
I downloaded it and all, when I opened it was fine aswell.
The problem came when I entered a duel, well I have a netbook, and apparently JP's screen is too big for it, thing is I'm not able to resize it. Any help ._.?



Edward, Amy will fix that for ya ^^

Netbooks can run 1024x768 with a few backdraws but thing is if you really need it like for JP you can do it. Thing I've done was when you install VGA driver for graphics (you probably did this because you do it when you install windows), it gives you option to raise your resolution from 1024x600 (widescreen optimal for netbook) to 1024x768 (non-widescreen). Then you have two options its either stretched to fit your screen or simply you scroll up and down with mouse to move your screen since 1024x768 doesnt fit your netbook.

What should you do is go to your Graphics driver menu where you can adjust several things about your display and just use 1024x768 resolution. If you dont want it stretched somewhere should be option to enable/disable aspect ratio. Then you right click on your Taskbar and go to its properties. There you enable auto-hide taskbar. Then your screen should fit amazingly good Wink

I couldn't say what options exactly since I dont work with your drivers obviously. If you cannot adjust to 1024x768 then search on google for support how to enable it on your netbook with your driver.

When are you going to give an official release ? My JP still doesn't run once I click at it, tried all the alternative launchers, btw.


l will release another version. But it will require you to install Python (everything will be included in one package) (don't worry it's just like installing Java or Flash). It will be more stable, because compiled version is too buggy :S

And also it will work on Linux xD


That's fine, no need to justify your actions lol. Still, I think that a similar version to what you describe above was released some ages ago when I was searching the net for an online dueling system.

i just downloaded this on a new pc with 1440x90 resolution the thing doesnt fit at all and in the newer versions the bottom part is cut D:

descriptionJ_PROJECT Dueling System - Page 6 EmptyRe: J_PROJECT Dueling System

Something is not okay with your resolution Blitz. 1024x768 must work with 1440x900 and use the one with no window border - taskbar. Also you can Autohide your taskbar where start is located for windows to make it fit.

Strange, because l use arrays and randomizer. So it's just your bad luck l guess. Because shuffler can't work better than this :D

Shuffler works fine for me even back from 2009 I don't know how you draw so bad KratoS lol.

Before you launching an official release, could you add sub-type spirit at search engine pwease ;]?

Also the shuffler is works well for me.

KCVDS shuffler = JP Shuffler.

I can't fit it as well, but it's kinda different... I can't see the top part, including the Actions/File/Help buttons :/

adding a resize option would be great

@BliTz everything is ok.

@hamouda try to move Task Bar to side. And it will fit.

l guess l will release few versions for different screen resolutions... Not sure if they work right :S

oh.. i thought it's supposed to fit the screen like kcvds

descriptionJ_PROJECT Dueling System - Page 6 EmptyRe: J_PROJECT Dueling System

If it's not asking too much, probably adding a link to the effect of a mentioned card in the side-bar (i.e: pro drew [mist valley falcon]. 32 cards left)
and if the opponent hover/click that mist valley falcon it'll show the card's text.

and the 2nd one is an ability to reveal the entire-deck to your opponent, probably timed for like 20 seconds or something like that, or just the player manually stopping it.

well, that is if it's not asking too much.

hey j_byyx epic program and i love it :D I was just wondering could you add a option so switch control of a monster for spells like creature swap or monster reborn(from enemys grave) ect Right now its a pain to have to remember whats switched :D

Also for some reason when i put cards on top of each other for a exceed summon the exceed monster always goes to the bottom of the pile even when i place it last.

One more thing, they arent officially released yet but the effects are confirmed so any chance you could add http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Grapha,_Dragon_God_of_Dark_World and http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Gate_of_the_Dark_World

Once again thanks so much for making this and i hope my suggestions\requestions arent too much :D


Edit: I tried to play using j_p today but for some reason its slow as hell for me i mean it took like 5 minutes to load a deck(just getting to the open file part took like a min) and in the game when i typed it took like 2 or 3 secs before it took even 1 letter. It was completely unplayable Sad i have no idea what has happened it was fine a few days ago and im pretty sure i havent been to any possible virus sites since. Nothing else seems slower either :D the only site i wasnt completely sure of was duelingacademy :D but i doubt thats it. Ill run a virus scan overnight just in case but its really odd Sad

mumakil, according to your questions you go a bit too far with them. First, this whole topic was created for JP support and discussion. Currently it has 11 pages in total and a guide to it as a starting post. Those questions you posted have answers in these 11 pages so if you could just go and read them all since we cannot answer same problem every single time someone asks for it.


In case you dont understand some solutions most probably your problem with slowness is that you are missing additional files that you need to download from site when you have application problems like that.

For Exceeds you can go reverse if that makes you a problem. Of course J_BYYX is already working on it to make stack for exceed materials. For now you have to play with what you got.

Please disregard my post from earlier :D After re-reading it i see how much like a ass im sounding lol. I just started typing and lost all control :D

so agains disregard the card request and i shall post my lag problem spesifically after in a minute.

The creature control change should be a feature and I am suggesting it as such Smile

And now to my problem: Amy i read the whole topic before even posting that question. Im running windows 7 right now and 2-3 days ago jp worked perfectly without any kind of lag or problems. But when i started it up today it is extremely slow i have tried reinstalling and everything else i could think of. Hell i even got a new virus program that i will use to virus scan later tonight(The old one was way way old anyway :D). I also did not find any help anywhere in this topic as it seems im the only one with the problem. So any help would be really appreciated :D. hopefully before i end up dueling in monkey island event lolz.

Once again sorry for my earlier post. I didnt think what i was posting about Smile


PS: Also i love dark worlds so thats why i was hoping for those cards but i was being greedy.

Edit: So it seems the lagg issue has fixed itself somehow.... These fail posts just wont stop today :D sorry for bothering

Lol its okay, you had problems and you posted them I just guided you to look more closely. I know how it is when you are excited and then run a game and it doesn't work, then you want answers immediately :D

I'm glad its fixed by itself cuz your problem seemed like wait and hope for the best lol.

About those new cards, I think JP will be updated with cards every once in a while but it will not take so much as KCVDS. Maybe in new update they will be included but J_BYYX is best to answer this so just wait for his reply.

About that "Creature Swap" option problem is a bit complex to solve because its not like adding a line of code to your walls of code. Its more recoding many things in a new way which is very painful and equals more to making a completely new dueling system engine :D Anyway even if problem is not solved you can always use proxies tokens etc for it.

descriptionJ_PROJECT Dueling System - Page 6 EmptyRe: J_PROJECT Dueling System

I just posted the creature swap thing so its not forgotten as no one had pointed it missing yet :D. If its difficult to impliment im fine with that but it would suck to not have it cause we forgot about it :D

but anyway theres no rush. tokens and proxies work nicely.

Looks like dn is down? Anyone going back to jp? xD

descriptionJ_PROJECT Dueling System - Page 6 EmptyRe: J_PROJECT Dueling System

lol I think if DN doesn't come back all people will use JP now (since they cannot get back to kcvds without librarian lol). Still they cry over it but yea after some time they will wash the tears and switch to JP :D

descriptionJ_PROJECT Dueling System - Page 6 EmptyRe: J_PROJECT Dueling System

what if it does..

descriptionJ_PROJECT Dueling System - Page 6 EmptyRe: J_PROJECT Dueling System

more_horiz
Well, its obvious that DN is far best dueling system till now. Simple reason, you dont have to seek for people to duel u just go and duel duel duel with latest cards officially out and beyond.

JP had only that problem, people find it hard to duel on it since they can only open a browser and find google but anything more complex would be a disaster to their brains :D thats why DN is good, u just open your browser and type your password and click on duel.
