Title: How to turn the board around?
Post by: snygg on January 30, 2008, 11:32:49 PM
Hej,

since bbgt doesn`t seem to work with Vista I need to use 3dfibs now. I can`t find a way to turn the board around. I dont like to play the direction 3dfibs makes me... it slowes me down...

Is it posible to turn the board around?

Thanks
snygg

As 'clever' answer as tomawakys would be, that try to learn to play in both directions. Maybe if you'll someday play live bg, you'll find it useful.

By all means, you must learn to play either direction equally well and comfortable!   :thumbsup2:

ok, socksey, when we play face to face, i get the home court bearing off to the right .. but you're correct, of course, i just haven't played across a real board much since finding fibs .. i know when i see boards set up bearing off to the left, i am generally flummoxed and desperately want to change it  :s49:

but you've given me a good idea (as usual) .. i think i'll start posting some problems in the new problem series bearing off to the left .. i even included pip counts in a problem or two recently, just for you  :wub:

Quoteso i guess it`s not possible?

I wouldn't say it's impossible until I heard from the creator of 3DFibs.   :laugh:

Ok, but I insist on changing dice colors after each match!   :lol:
