Cluedome 0.7.3

Return to main page

Download

If you are using Windows, simply download and run the setup program to install Cluedome. Alternatively, you may download the two Zip files, and extract them into the same folder. Then open the folder and run cluedome.exe. You must use this method if you do not have administrator access to the PC.

If you are using Linux, download and extract the source code tarball. There are brief instructions for installation in the README file, and a more detailed description of the configure script in INSTALL. The wxWidgets library is required.

Notes

0.7.3 is a very minor update: I have made a small change to fix a glitch where the game says that someone can disprove a suggestion when in fact they cannot. Hopefully this problem will be gone for good now. I have fixed several bugs and glitches since version 0.7.1, and made a couple of improvements. Nothing major. It should be possible for people with 0.7.1, 0.7.2 and 0.7.3 to play together, although those with 0.7.1 and 0.7.2 will probably encounter certain glitches.

Most major functions are complete. The game is playable, and networking works. There is no proper AI yet, the board is rather plain, and there are no icons for things, but all the main functionality is there. It should be fairly easy to use.

There are no in-game detective notes, so you will have to either use an external program (e.g. Notepad) or a piece of paper (recommended when several people are playing on the same computer).

If you are having difficulty installing or using Cluedome, please ask for help on IRC.

There are probably still a few glitches. This should be considered beta-quality code. If you find a bug in Cluedome, please send me an e-mail or report it on IRC.

Feel free to look at the source code and make any changes you like. You may e-mail me any improvements or extensions you make. The C++ source code is in .h and .cpp files. resources.rc is the Windows resource file. cluedome.iss is the input file for Inno Setup. I develop Cluedome on Linux, using vim. The board image was made using GIMP. The Windows executable is generated using the MinGW cross-compiler. I use Wine to run Inno Setup to generate the setup program.
