Cue Club 2 Update #77



Hi Everyone,

We hope you are all keeping safe and well. Today we have a Cue Club 2 update with a collection of new features and refinements to cameras, controls, graphics, AI, physics, referee animations, membership cards and multiplayer, plus some fixes too. Thanks again for the continued feedback and we hope you enjoy these latest additions to the game.

  • Added 40 new trophies for Tournament and Bar Challenge modes in each of the 5 difficulty settings from Novice up to Pro level, distinguished by colour. Previous wins before the update are recorded at novice level. Also includes 40 new Steam Achievements to bring the total to 75.

  • Introduced a new menu screen to show at a glance what trophies you have unlocked. Go to 'Achievements > Trophies > Summary'.

  • Improved range of elevation for first person camera, to allow you to get down lower on the cue in 3D mode. Use the mouse wheel or gamepad right stick to adjust.

  • Mouse wheel sensitivity adjusted to give finer control of vertical camera adjustment (see above).

  • First person camera now looks towards centre table when when zoomed out using middle mouse button, immediately after a shot is played.

  • Novice and Amateur AI difficulty settings have been made slightly more challenging, and Expert setting has been made a fraction less difficult, to give more evenly spaced progression.

  • Cloth wear now affects play. Increasing levels of wear will make the table play slightly faster for a more realistic effect. Applies to all game modes except online multiplayer human vs human, where cloths for both players perform as new.

  • Added an option to turn off referee hand animations for re-spotting balls and moving balls between pockets in snooker. Go to 'Options > Match Settings > Referee' and toggle 'Hand Animations'. Default setting is 'On'.

  • Membership cards now show more information, including Bar Challenge victories at each level of difficulty. Clicking on them shows the reverse side. See 'Achievements > Membership Cards'.

  • Improved pocket shading in 2D and 3D modes.

  • Visual enhancements to snooker trophies and 7-ball pool trophies.

  • Improvements to tournament fixtures screen.

  • Fixed an issue that occasionally made music tracks skip during playback.

  • Solved a problem that could sometimes cause a crash when tabbing in and out of the game to the desktop.

  • Fixed an issue where colours would not be re-spotted in snooker after a foul was committed on the last red, and balls were replaced.

  • Improved multiplayer connectivity.

  • Added difficulty-level adjustment buttons to Bar Challenge menu. Note: after the update you may need to select Novice mode to see previous progress.

  • Added circular lighting indicators to Bar Challenge menu, to show how many opponents have been defeated in each bar.

  • New menu option to adjust the default topspin / backspin setting. See 'Options > Controls > Advanced Settings > Default Topspin'. 7 settings available.

  • Other minor fixes and enhancements.
