Cue Club 2: Pool & Snooker News

Hi everyone,

We have another good size update today with some cool new features along with a few fixes too.

• Added a feature in the table designer menu to customise the style of the 'diamonds' along the rails on pool tables (3 designs + 'off' setting). The position of the diamonds has also been improved.
  
  
• New feature to change the colour of the table markings. Use white or black pencil for fine markings, or white / black pen for a stronger effect. Go to Options > Tables and select the cloth patterns tab.
  
  
• Steam friend feature added. In the multiplayer lobby, click on a player's avatar, then click the friend add button. You can also add them from the in-game chat menu (F1 key).
  
  
• Personalised Steam avatars are now downloaded and displayed in the multiplayer lobby and on the player information screen.
  
  
• Further enhancements to table cloth colours.
  
  
• Improved colours in the vintage snooker ballset, and also Euro pool, including a new 'Pro-Style' dark red and yellow ballset.
  
  
• Added an alternative mouse click audio sample. See Options > Audio > Menu Selection.
  
  
• Further visual enhancements to menus and in-game bars.
  
  
• Fixed a bug in multiplayer that could very occasionally halt play during 8-ball.
  
  
• Fixed an issue that sometimes displayed the wrong time in Speed Pool replays.
  
  
• Other minor fixes and enhancements.
  

More updates on the way soon, including an option to play on different size tables. Thanks once again for supporting Cue Club 2 and helping us to continually refine the game :)
