Cricket Heroes - testing & feedback

[kurtkz]

@hedger: Yup, deal is basically signed. They're redoing all the players as animated 3D chibi models and hopefully I'll have enough money left over to have them overhaul the UI as well. Its costing me a pretty penny (I probably won't recoup the costs) but based on their sketches it should look awesome

 

[Rohit Doshi]

This is just terrific, really excited about Cricket Heroes now. With the same simulation engine, same features and 3D models this would be the biggest game every

 

[kurtkz]

@hedger: also, no worries on the rosters my main focus right now is to fix all the bugs, improve the simulation and get the physics right. having said that, I might be able to sort out some pay for rosters - it won't be great pay, but it'll buy you some games

 

[Rohit Doshi]

I am up for it, doing rosters but for free my friend. Dont need any money, just credits if you dont mind

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: thanks unfortunately it won't include a 3D camera (for now) but I'll add it at a later stage.

 

[Rohit Doshi]

3D camera? I have not mentioned anything related to that

I will soon put up list of players I will be including for the database. Just mention me in the credits I said

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: definitely, just let me know what you're planning

 

[Rohit Doshi]

I will be putting up a list of 20 players from each country that have featured recently or might feature in future for all 9 countries.

I will be putting up list of all players of West Indies domestic.So that the game will feature Indian(Only IPL),Australian,South African,New Zealand & West Indies domestic structure.

Then after this list, I will work on actual rating of players and will send you the database(csv) sheets for verifying my ratings. If you think its proper error free I will go ahead

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: that's a big chunk of work. I don't mind paying - it won't be much but it's something

 

[Rohit Doshi]

Well your wish then . Will start working this saturday

 

[hedger_14]

Rohit, I've done South Africa, Australia and New Zealand already so don't worry about them, I'll make a few edits to them at some stage to update them.

If you wouldn't mind doing the Indian rosters, that would be good, because really, the Indian domestic setup is so confusing and I have no idea how to sort out the rosters. Then I can just vary ratings accordingly so that the Indians aren't overrated/underrated compared with my ratings of players in other countries. We can finish IPL rosters after we've done every domestic setup as we can just add the players to the teams (in some way )

I'll try getting the West Indies and Bangladesh rosters done sometime soon. Then I'll start working on the huge job of making the English roster, unless Rohit wanted to do that too

----------

Actually, did you want to split it Rohit?

I do England and West Indies and Bangladesh and you do India, Sri Lanka and Pakistan?

I feel that's the best way as you'd likely know more about IND/SL/PAK while I know a fair bit of England and I've played ICC with Bangladesh a lot and West Indies shouldn't be too troubling.

 

[Rohit Doshi]

Well, I would do the West Indies as I have been into West Indies domestic a lot plus I can do Zimbabwe domestic too as have been following that. I wont be doing Sri Lanka,Pakistan, India. It sucks tbh so many tournaments, so many players

 

[hedger_14]

ok, you can do West Indies. I know India and Pakistan are just stupid but what about Sri Lanka? They seem to just have two tiers for both OD and FC cricket along with a T20 tournament. Just make all the players and put them in their respective teams and kurt can make all the competitions with the teams in them.

Otherwise if not, I think we'll just be having domestic tournaments for Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, England, West Indies, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe.

 

[Rohit Doshi]

Well, India has 9 domestic tournament going around(none we watch tbh) so its pretty boring to integrate them into the game.

Sri Lankan players I know none and same for Pakistan. Dont follow a bit of their cricket hence it will be super difficult for me to add them.

----------

English roster is pretty huge too so I wont be doing that either

 

[kurtkz]

Thanks, guys, really appreciate all your effort

As it stands currently:

Rohit: Zim and WI
hedger: Eng and Ban

If you guys can put together the rosters, I'll add their domestic competitions.
