LWK69 Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Is the Solitaire Just Play Bridge (Free) no longer available? The screen layout has changed to include a list of players online with points and the History tabs doesn't display any of the games I play. Looking at the About Solitaire Bridge information, the screen looks like the Bridge 4 version of Solitaire (I've never played that option so I'm not sure), not the Just Play Bridge version I've been playing for the last several years. Has that been eliminated? There are other changes to the screen layout, so I'm wondering if there was an update of some sort. I've looked through the news and can't find any mention of it.

rbforster Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Same question, the sizes of all the cards are super big now compared to how they were this weekend, in addition to the player/chat list starting on that side by default. I seem to remember a way to adjust the font size but that seems to be gone too. I also can’t get the double dummy results anymore when looking at the hand results. Animations when playing are also much slower. Edit: there do seem to be some new features, like being able to only see certain hands when you replay the hand in the results, and letting you declare when your partner robot steals the contract from you. For comparison, you can see the difference if you look at the Practice->Bridge Master teaching hands, which use the old format, and the Solitaire->Just Play Bridge, or Bridge 4 ones, which use the new format.

barmar Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 To alleviate load on our main server, we've redirected the solitaire games to the anonymous web games. Sorry for the confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the confusion.Thanks for the explanation. Good luck in handling the extra load and I look forward to these solitaire versions returning to their old state once things settle down on your end.

Did you ever get an answer? Even with new update, my soltaire displays incorrectly. Every other page works. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
