Cricket Heroes - testing & feedback

[kurtkz]

That's the plan

and same for the bowl marker.

Please do something with simulation speed.

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: What should be done for the bowler marker? There's not much I can do for the simulation speed at the moment. On fast speed it simulates a full T20 game in under a minute. Like I said previously, it'll simulate multiple games at the same time so speed shouldn't be an issue in future updates.

Hey everyone,

just wanted to update you about my progress. Things are coming together nicely now, but I probably won't have an update ready until Friday or Saturday. The new batting phsyics, fielding and AI seem to (finally) work well together. I'll be starting on the new interfaces and control schemes today. Once that's done, there's a few bugs that I need to test and fix and then I need to update the player stats. So...there's still plenty to do, but I think I can finish it before the weekend (assuming work doesn't get in the way).

Cheers
Kurt

Options to activate/deactivate bowl marker.For me simulating T20(1 inning) is taking around 3 to 4 minutes on fast speed.

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: Deactivating the bowling marker will make the game nearly impossible to play - I'll add an ultra hard mode instead where the marker doesn't appear at all.

I'll see what I can do to improve the performance when simulating a game, but 3-4min for 1 inning is ludicrously slow o.O What hardware are you running the game on?

@Meet: Thanks, I'll see what I can do - I can't promise that it'll be in Friday's release though (if I finish everything up before then, then it might)...

1.Stop option is not working after simulation is started.
2.Runners don't return back in straight direction but little bit slant, which dosn;t looks good.
3.When a catch is going to be taken the player rotates(:P), and they takes the catch facing on the other side of bowl.
4.Again the toss problem.I have no problem losing but its frustrating that they always chose to bat.

I am not able to load game.It says-
"The selected game is incompatible with current version of Cricket Heroes"
And also can you make 1366*768 resolution screen?I know I asked earlier but if possible please do it.

----------

Also defensive shot is not working.(Up key)
It is counted as LB.

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: Cool, I'll add widescreen video modes. Also, I'll test the defensive shots again to make sure they're working. It works for the computer...

 

[Meet]

And again too many deliveries on off stump.I hope it would be fixed by next update.

 

[hedger_14]

Well shouldn't bowlers be bowling most bowls on off stump/just outside off stump?
