The new software and VIP program bring with them a handful of changes that you need to know about and understand in order to get the most out of your CarbonPoker experience. Below you will find a details of all the new additions to Version 4.5 and the VIP program.
4.5 Software Features / Changes
Poker Game Personalisation - allows players to select from several different graphics for the poker game including:
- table backgrounds
- table floors
- table rails
- card backs
- general user interface tinting
Poker Game Mini Mode - allows players to put the poker game into "mini mode" such that it has a minimal interface and is still legible at small resolutions. This allows multi-tablers the ability to run more tables on the screen at the same time and still have them all visible. The user interface has been simplified when in mini-mode to allow for basic actions and the user can easily switch between normal and mini mode on an individual window basis. Further to this when the table is being used in mini mode, players can manually resize the window and use the mini mode interface in full screen.
Poker Game Grid Mode - has been overhauled to allow players to specify any grid combination with up to 5x5 games. It allows the poker game to be split out into a separate window and/or back into a grid window on an individual window basis.
Tournament Entries and Payouts - tournament entry, addons, rebuys, bounties, and payout schedules have been totally overhauled to include greater flexibility of options. The client has been updated to give players the choice between multiple payment options for tournament entry.
Heads Up Sit'n'Go Rematch - now offer the ability for players to rematch immediately after the end of the game.
