PySol & PySolFC

Post by Drasir-Vel »

Now that we're looking at solitaire games, i would like to point you to this site: http://solitaire.vegard2.no/.

I did a search, and saw that you didn't have PySol.

PySol is my all time favourite. It has a massive amount of game types. And not to mention the music. It has many different cardsets. It has hint, and demo (autoplay) functionality. Version 4.41 has some things that were removed in the later version.

The official homepage is http://www.pysol.org/. Where the newest version (4.82) is. But it hasn't been compiled for Windows.

Download from CWF:

Sad to say but this handled very heavy, and I found nothing that really spoke to me. We have other solitaire games that are better than this one. I really needed somewhere where I could adjust the ruleset for the individual cardgame. It played with other rules than I am used to in Klondike, and that really bugged me. Only smooth thing about this game was that it had gotten my name from the computer so it already knew what to fill in to the name field before I did anything. :)

Hmm, I installed the game, but it won't start when I open the file. I tried it with the compability mode for Win 98 and Win 2000, but still nothing happens. Has anyone an idea what could be wrong. For one time I'm sure it's not because my computer doesn't have enough power.

It's begun doing that for my computer also.
There is a fan edition that's similar to PySol here http://pysolfc.sourceforge.net/.

Actually now you can't download a Windows version of PySol, so i recommend you use PySol FC instead (see link above). It keeps a lot of stuff which was removed from PySol, and it's otherwise the same.
