+
    +

    • +
  • More game rules in the documentation.
    • +

+ + + + +

+ This is a pretty sizable release, so this beta version is being + offered before a stable 2.16 in the next month or two. Any feedback + and bug reports are greatly appreciated. The full list of changes for + this release is quite long, but here are the highlights: +

+
    +
  • + There is a new Cardsets release - PySolFC-Cardsets v.2.1 (required + to run 2.15). +
    • +
  • + 35 new games, plus enhancements and fixes to many existing games. +

    • +
  • + Note that the new high-resolution options will not override your + currently selected options for existing users. If you want to use + the new settings, you can delete or rename your options.cfg file. +
    • +
  • + New feature to search for games, cardsets, and table tiles by + name. +
    • +
