Please do not comment on or reply to this thread at all! This is just as informative guide for those who want to know how to install this program. That's the only function this thread serves. And I kindly ask the mods to delete any replies posted. Way ahead of you. ~NC

I have no involvement in this program so I can't help you. The links above contain the people that can.
Firstly, it looks AMAZING!

It's been getting continous updates for the past five years, and numerous features have been added.
It features...
MULTIPLAYER - It supports Emperor, Two Headed Dragon, Elder Dragon Highlander, Free For All, Five Color and Mental Magic. I see this as being a huge pro over Magic Workstation. Me and my friends have logged in several hours of two headed magic and emperor online thanks to this program.
THE FUNCTIONALITY OF MWS - It apparently supports all the features that MWS supports, including tokens, modifiable libraries and such.
IT'S A MUCH FASTER CLEANER INTERFACE - My seven year old laptop loads it in under three seconds!! MWS takes it close to a minute to load.
IT'S COMPLETELY MODULAR - It can support any game you want it to, it's not strictly restricted to MTG.
IT'S COMPLETELY FREE - No Ads, Nothing. All the functionality is there for everyone to use.
IT KEEPS GETTING UPDATED - I just read through the forum and it's had three additional features added in the past few months. The last time Magic Workstation had an update was almost three years ago.
The download link for OCTGN 2.0 is here...
http://www.octgn.net/downloads.php
(Simply click "Install OCTGN 2" in Internet Explorer.)
-----------------------------------------------
Once you have the program itself, everything you need to download, the MTG game module, and all of the sets is right here...
http://www.mediafire.com/sets
(Get all of the sets from the O2 folder. And yes, you can install multiple sets at once simply by selecting all of them at the same time.)
If you just want to download the MTG game module itself, the magic game definition is available at...
http://filebeam.com/bcc3b17ace45fde83ce8bee787aedf84
(Remove the .txt from the file name after downloading.)
To find players, you will need an IRC client such as mirc to connect to the official chatroom. Once you have one, connect to irc.ircstorm.net, port 6667, and join #octgn.
Alternatively, simply go to http://www.mibbit.com/networks/ircstorm/octgn.html
Have fun!
