fred Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Please include feedback about version 3.8.8 here. For more information about 3.8.8, see the threads in "BBO Announcements and Special Events" forums that mention 3.8.7 and 3.8.8 in their respective titles.

inquiry Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 I really like mousing over team game titles and seeing the names of who is playing... that feature alone is worth the price of the upgrade... (oh, its free? Well it would be worth paying for). Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rona_ Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Are you sure you have version 3.8.8. Ben? Fred posted 3.8.7. by mistake so we all upgraded the same version basically. He has now corrected to 3.8.8. so maybe you should have another look. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joker_gib Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 As a great fan of the BBO Vugraph, I'm really looking forward to see the main changes and improvements done in that matter ! Thanks a lot for all your work, Fred ! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceptic Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Hi, I just loaded 3.8.8 and when I go into the main lounge where as I used to see padlocks I now see plain yellow boxes, I do not believe any alterations have been made to my system, so I am unsure if that is a problem or a change. or a problem with my computer only, seems strange as all I have done is upgrade to new version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inquiry Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 I still have yellow padlocks on white backgrounds.. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred Posted October 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 If the padlocks (or other symbols) continue to look strange, try restarting your PC. Let me know if the problem continues. In theory there should be no changes in 3.8.8 that cause this sort of thing to happen.

MickyB Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 3.89 doesn't display a flag when I select Armenia as my country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred Posted October 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 Sorry about the Armenian flag. The problem will correct itself if you download the BBO software again through: www.bridgebase.com/online We will make sure to get the Armenian flag right in the next version.

uday Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 The armenian flag thing is fixed in the 3.9.0 autoupgrade ( the current one) so no action is needed beyond accepting the auto upgrade. No need to download the full version.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robovas Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 Hi, everything worked correctly until the upgrade to 3.8.9 Since then the program is not able to connect to the server. OS: WinXP Pro, connected through Microcom ADSL DeskPorte Router 400 (built-in firewall). I installed the next version (3.9.0) from the scratch; the problem remained the same. I restored the version 3.8.4, it works, but it always wants to install the new version. Is it possible to use this old version without automatic download and installation?

uday Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 The server will try to upgrade you 3 times, then give up. So you can escape from the "i want to install the new version" screen 3 times, then you will remain at 384 I don't suggest you do this except as a last resort. Better to fix your firewall.Usually when this happens, this is a problem on the local PC. Programs like Zonealarm and all the big antivirus programs need to be configured to allow programs to connect to the internet. When a program changes ( as it does when we upgrade) they need to be re-configured. The program in question is c:\bridge base online\netbridgevu.exeIt attempts to connect to bbo.bridgebase.com using TCP. First , on port 9999, then on port 80 if the first attempt on 9999 fails. If you are going to poke through your antivirus program, look for something called "Internet firewall" or "Personal firewall" or whatever. Drop me an email - uday@ - if you need help and we'll muddle through it together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
