Update 2.4.24



Hi everyone,

In today's update we have a number of new additions to Cue Club 2, plus some more tweaks and bug fixes. Thanks again for the feedback on the forums and we hope you enjoy these latest improvements.


EURO 8-BALL

  • Added rule variation to allow ball in hand anywhere on table following a foul. See 'Game Rules > Rule Variations > Euro 8 Ball Pool'. There are now three settings: ball in hand (baulk line), ball in hand (anywhere), and no ball in hand.

  • Fixed issue in Euro ball set selection where cue ball patterns were not set correctly.


SNOOKER

  • Fixed issue where a foul was incorrectly awarded if 2 reds were potted together at the same time into a full pocket.


GAMEPLAY

  • Potted balls now roll for slightly different times under table depending how close the pocket is to the collection chamber.

  • Practice saves in Killer and Speed Pool which allow players to re-play the current table configuration in practice mode, now save out as a US 8 Ball game for convenience.

  • Fixed issue after loading a saved game, where AI player would sometimes play an alternative shot that is not consistent with nominated ball or pocket.

  • Fixed issue in pool where potted ball errors could occur after switching the 'Potted Balls' display to 'on' mid-game.

  • Fixed issue where bonus game 'Slam' would not work properly if user selects 'Drop' as default state for 'Move Balls' in practice mode.

  • Fixed issue in 'Slam' mode where match information screen showed player scores.

  • Fixed issue where saving a practice game from quick match would cause problems on reload if the bonus game 'Detonator' was played earlier.

  • Fixed issues where shot information text for cue power and cue elevation would sometimes not clear and remain on-screen.

  • Fixed issues where key shortcuts would sometimes not work correctly.

  • Fixed issue where a saved replay would occasionally end early, and not show a potted ball rolling into a pocket.


GRAPHICS

  • Added new screen transition options to snooker break and speed pool replays. After clicking on the record entry play button, select 'Screen Transitions' from the in-game menu and choose from the fade colours 'Black', 'White' or 'Off'. This is a saved option and does not require resetting. Default is 'Black'.

  • Screen transitions now complete slightly faster than previously.

  • Fixed issue in pool where where 'Rack Balls' button would overlap clock display in the control panel.

  • Fixed issue in 3D mode where object ball value indicator would sometimes flash when closing the in-game menu.

  • Main menu silhouette image of male and female player now displays at full intensity when returning from in-game to main menu.


AUDIO

  • Fixed issue where wrong potting ball sample was played for a high power shot in pool.


MENUS

  • On cue selection menu, clicking the pool / snooker tab now resets the cue page.

  • Tweaks to trophy 'Summary' layout, and menu now renamed to 'Trophy Collection'.

  • Fixed menu links on player profile and language selection menus.

  • Improved word wrapping of text in 'General Rules' section.


MISCELLANEOUS

  • Improvements and fixes to localised game text.

  • Improvements to file and memory management.

  • Other minor fixes and enhancements.
