What a new update was in and I did not know?

Rushes to download it

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: Haha, yeah, it's the one where I promised the graphics update preview. I hope it fixes some of the other issues too. Give it a spin and let me know what you think

 

[Rohit Doshi]

No beaches and stadiums in Beach Cricket and Hong Kong Sixes.. other then that there are no bugs found. 3D looks good hoping for more improvements such as the non striker standing normally and not standing in a batting position

----------

Yes one issue I have always faced is this shot O + D.

Never been able to play this shot

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: Thanks for testing Yeah, I'm waiting on Buko to give me the animation for the non-striker :P

Wrt BC and HK6 - are no beaches/stadiums listed when you create a new game?

Also, what is O + D supposed to play - the pull shot?

 

[kurtkz]

Hi guys,

*another* quick update:

- fixes no beaches/grounds for Beach Cricket and Hong Kong 6s

Cheers
Kurt

 

[Rohit Doshi]

Yes O+D is supposed to play the pullshot

I am loving this game man, the 3D models look good. Its smooth and music is good. Any plan on commentary? You could just add existing ones like Ravi Shastri's commentary etc?

Hey one minor bug

This happened at an India vs Sri Lanka match. I dont know the reason everything was going fine

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: Aaah, good spot on the HK6 wickets bug :P I'll fix that up.

Do you remember what happened leading up to the bug after that?

 

[Rohit Doshi]

After that bug game crashed before that bug I successfully was playing QF in a tournament

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: Aaah, OK, cool. I'll try to replicate that bug.
