Sound works, but it's really chat based, not game based.

When someone enters a room, when it's your turn, etc.

gotcha. Still going to upgrade to the premium. Do I just overwrite everything?

Yes, override all the files, import the product file overtop. No need to uninstall anything.

cool, will do in the AM! Excellent work, btw!

Hi Andrew!

Installed! Very nice.

Strange, however. After installing we changed the admin rights to the admin group and the mod group, and now the admin panel is nowhere to be found !!

I am sure we changed it properly, however, we had one admin panel opened in Opera, and it would not permit us to type in the forms, so we opened another admin panel in FF3. We added the correct setting for admins and mods.... and now, no admin panel!

What can we do?

Hi Andrew,

PS: I notice that we cannot type with Opera brower. FF3 is OK. So is Safari. Opera, however, cannot type in your Gameroom.

Hi Andrew,

Your front page instructions say:

.

However, there is no "makemeadmin.php" anywhere in the distribution.

Also, I checked the DB, and all is OK.

Chess game does not log moves!

Also, Chess does not record games, won-loss of player matches, etc.

And, Chess, cannot save game and return another time to play??

This is a "good start" but is far from useful for most people who play chess. Most people play chess online over many days, because they are busy. All games should be recorded. One of the most important parts of a Chess game is the record of the moves! Also, it is not interesting if there is no record of who played, what happened, who won against whom, etc.

Sorry, this is a disappointing implementation. The chat refresh is annoying at best. I am locked out of the adminCP but the database shows correct usergroups using phpMyAdmin. Cannot type in Opera, but OK in FF3 and Safari........

Andrew!!

What's Going On Spock!?

When is the next upgrade where these very basic features are added??

Comments from various forum users who tried The Gameroom:

1. Cannot type in the gameroom when I am using Opera. FF3 and Safari OK.
   
2. Chat refresh blinks entire flash module... annoying.
   
3. Chess does not record moves, cannot save game, does not record wins or loses.... (heard it does in the paid version, some of this, but the bugs still exist).
   
4. Card games, etc. are not as nice as in the Casino mod .... resolution not nice at all......
   
5. Solo card games don't seem too buggy - but resolution not great.
   
6. Switching from e.g chess to lobby and back means multiple here I am , oh I'm gone messages and would time you out - i.e. you'd have to stay for the duration of the game and experience no network glitches..
   
7. The timeout and "have to stay in your room thing" to play Chess is bad news.
