fred Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 The latest version of the BBO is now available.You can install this version by going to: www.bridgebase.com/3.4.12/bbo_setup.exe Please make sure that you have exited BBOCOMPLETELY before you try to install the new version. For those of you who have already installed3.4.11 you will not see very much that is newin 3.4.12 (although the way the Bridge Libraryon Online Store work have been much improved). Still, it is a good idea for 3.4.11 users to upgradeto the new version. The reason is that we neverintended 3.4.11 to be made available to the generalpublic. Unfortunately word about 3.4.11 spreadvery quickly and it soon became too late for us totry to stop it. 3.4.11 was meant for testing byour staff and a handful of others (such as theyellows) and it contains several bugs that werefixed in 3.4.12. We are hoping that a lot of people will read thispost and download 3.4.12. Our plan will be to fixany problems that these people report, create a3.4.13 if necessary within a week, and distributethat version to all BBO members through ourautomatic upgrade facility. Please report any problems that you find in thenew version (or old versions for that matter) to: fred@bridgebase.com For those of you who have 3.4.8 (the latest officialversion of the software), you will see the followingnew features when you install 3.4.12. Those of youwho have 3.4.11 already have access to these features: - Support for individual tournaments - A "tourneys" button when you are at a bridge table.Clicking this button will display a list of tournaments(similar to how the "Lobby" and "Tables" buttonscurrently work). - Tournament hosts have some new options availablefor restricting access in their tournament in various ways. Besides the rewrite of the Bridge Library and OnlineStore areas (and several bug fixes), version 3.4.12also contains these new features: - The software now remembers your setting ofHide/Show Lobby News, but when we change the Lobby News this setting is ignored (everyone willsee the new news when they log in). - We believe we have significantly improved thespeed at which BBO is able to send and receivedata over the Internet. People with slow connectionsshould notice big improvements in this area. - Private club owners now have the ability to sendmail messages to all members of their clubs with a single command. - Lobby chat is not displayed when you are in achat room regardless of your setting of "IgnoreLobby Chat". - Some new flags have been added (Bangladesh,Ukraine, and a nicer flag for Saint Lucia). Let us knowif your flag is missing! We hope you like the new version. Please let us knowif you find any problems!
