@avinash: Hehe, no worries. Glad it's working

Hi all,

the next release is going to be delayed by a few days - there are quite a few improvements and bug fixes I'm working on...

Cheers

Crashes (without error logs)

Hi kurtkz,

Noticed that on quite a few occasions that the game crashes after the AI calls for UDRS (crash occurs after review is completed) and on a few occasions when a wicket is about to fall (especially catches other than slips catches I think).

 

[kurtkz]

Thanks itay128, I'll see if I can fix that up too - does this happen on a specific match format or is it across the board?

I think it's across the board.

delay when it would be release ??? and why not 3d matches screen shot...????

 

[kurtkz]

@ramiz: I'm hoping to release a new update this weekend. Possibly Saturday (I'm waiting on new models from Buko). I'll try to put together a video for the 3D mode then too.

Saturday is big day :P waiting for it ....:P

@itay128: I finally tracked down and fixed the referral & LBW issue properly. Was it crashing for normal catches too or only referred ones?

 

[kurtkz]

Hi guys,

this the list of changes/fixes so far:

- crashes when appealing for LBW in test matches
- crashes when certain achievements are unlocked
- crashes when playing (not simulating) a HK6 or beach cricket match
- game automatically restarts when accepting a resolution change
- re-enabled auto-updater
- performance optimizations
- simple colour-based kits for 3D models (these can be edited)
- smoothed out fielding transitions for 3D models
- reworked fielding AI
- tweaked parameters for test matches (non-simulated)
- minor visual changes
- fixed bug where 4 would randomly be given (very rare)
- fixed crash at end of exhibition match
- achievements are no longer unlocked when simulating innings

So far, only normal catches. Noticed the game also crashes after choosing whether or not to enforce the follow on (in test matches)

 

[kurtkz]

Aaah, found & fixed the catch bug! Trying to replicate the follow on bug now - if there's anything else I missed please let me know

Kurt i would love to try out your game but for some reason it hangs during the setup process and I ahve to restart my computer: I am using windows 8 on a Compaq laptop. Any ideas?

 

[kurtkz]

Fixed the follow-on bug and a crash in exhibition mode at the end of a test match...

@dutchad: Can you give me some more details about the issue? Laptop specs, where exactly it crashes, etc.

 

[kurtkz]

@itay: Sorted out the last of the crashes you mentioned. Just running some more tests now to confirm that, all is in fact, well with the update.
