Re: Cardtable CCG Program Players Group Re: Question from the CardTable Programmer
My favorite alternative CCG program is GCCG. The client itself isn't that hard to use for most people (slight learning curve with keyboard shortcuts,) but it is a bit more involved to add a new game. That mainly comes from the fact that it has a scripting language you must learn (or at least understand enough to cut and paste.) GCCG2 was talked about but has yet to be actually started upon. More information on the projet can be found here: http://gccg.sourceforge.net
hey Ryan, glad to see you are back. I've been on only sketchy, but i still use the program to lan party with people and I know that the need for programs like this is now increasing.
the Gatlin ENgine gained a lot of prominence a few years ago, but the program requires the engine server to be running, and that has died effectivley killing the program and every game that it could run. I have heard from many online gamers looking for a system that could run many gamers favorite games.

I believe the source itself is in C++. It was developed originally for Linux, so that's why the setup isn't very elegant. At one point in time, I was going to...
I did notice that once I got the source downloaded. I am not sure I am ready to take this on, but I am considering it. I never really liked Java's GUI...
Java was chosen mainly for portability, as I said. One of the issues with creating a multi-OS client is ensuring that the GUI is uniform across the platforms....
I think LackeyCCG is is the prominent program of this type right now, but if you are still interested in working on Cardtable2 I would be glad to see it....
yeah, I tried Lackey a while back but could never seem to get it to work. It had some nice features that it seemed CT2 was hoping to feature and it looked nice...
Ryan, If you're seriously considering returning to the CardTable project, please do so. Your current version, while being much more basic than some of the...
Wow, awesome to see this group active again. For the longest time all I ever saw here was spam postings. I don't think I've used card table since I had dialup,...
