Sanath bowled a brilliant first over and I seriously could just hit one boundary of him. I was really nervous when Samaraweera bowled 3rd over for just 12. I needed 47 in 12 balls and tbp 24 in last over. First ball I played was way to high but umpire judged it one for over next 4 balls I hit 4 sixes with Irfan Pathan and I needed 1 of 1 ball and I edged and keeper dropped that catch and went for boundary *whooff!!*

4.1 P de Silva hurls this through. Not finding much movement off this pitch. I Pathan plays a hook with soft hands. Fielded by PA de Silva - dot
4.2 P de Silva ambles in and loops this one to the batsman. I Pathan plays a square drive with soft hands - 6
4.3 P de Silva hurls this through. I Pathan plays a square drive with soft hands - 6
4.4 P de Silva hurls this through. I Pathan plays a square drive with soft hands - 6
4.5 P de Silva flings his through at decent pace. That one goes on straight. I Pathan plays a square drive with soft hands - 6
4.6 P de Silva hurls this through. I Pathan plays a square drive with soft hands - 4

@Rohit: That's AWESOME

 

[Rohit Doshi]

Finally we get a separate forum Well done mods

My fight with them is finally successful

 

[kurtkz]

@Rohit: Wow, that's fantastic news! Thanks, I didn't know you asked for one

 

[kurtkz]

Hi all,

the new forum can be found here. I've included a thread for feature requests & suggestions so feel free to comment

Cheers
Kurt

 

[Gaurav_7]

Cheers for the new forum, Kurt.

My only request is to please make it run smoother for someone who has outdated openGL drivers and a slow net connection like me.

 

[Rohit Doshi]

He has done that in his last update I suppose

 

[kurtkz]

@User & Rohit: Quite correct, it should run better in the next update which will be posted on Sunday.

 

[Meet]

This is brilliant.Cricket Heroes have a new section.
Congo Kurt.
Been busy, will try out the update sometime later.

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: good to have you back

 

[kurtkz]

Hi all,

update 1.24 is now available:

Changes


- fixed shadows
- optimized performance
- added adjustable frameskip
- extra polish

Kind regards
Kurt

PS - if the game is running slowly on your machine, go to Options -> Video -> Frame Skip and adjust the value.

PPS - it might be a good idea to back up your current CH folder. Just copy and paste it and you should be fine. This is just in case btw - it should work OK...

 

[Rohit Doshi]

Should I download even if the last version is working fine?

 

[kurtkz]

Its not necessary, Rohit. This is more a performance update.

 

[kurtkz]

Hi all,

I'm planning to release another update today. Again, it won't be major, but the following changes will be included:

- improved AI batting
- reverse sweep (no sprite animation yet, but the 3D animation is there)
- performance improvements
- improved frame skipping (more fluent now)
- fielding improvements
- updated player rosters (hopefully)
- fixed backfoot off drive
- increased hit box for straight drives
- easier to hit ball on lower difficulty settings
- improved error logging

Cheers
Kurt

Stroke play issues

Hi kurtkz,

I noticed that I'm unable to play the straight drive (both front and back foot) as well as the cover drive (back foot) on the latest update. When playing the straight drive or the back foot cover, the ball just goes straight through to the wicket keeper.
