Cricket Heroes - testing & feedback

[itay128]

@kurtkz: When resuming a test match, it runs in simulation mode even though I played it in arcade mode.

 

[kurtkz]

Oooh, another weird one. Thanks, I'll fix that up too.

@itay: Could you send me a copy of your saved game please? I can't reproduce that bug :/

RUN @ 20-May-12 8:55:57 PM

VERSION: 1.43
REGISTERED: False
PROFILE: N/A

MESSAGE: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

STACK TRACE:    at Cricket.Main.GameStateSimulate.ProcessVisual(Single ms, Single ms2)
   at Cricket.Main.GameInstance.UpdateOnly(Single ratio)
   at Cricket.Main.GameInstance.Loop()
   at Cricket.Main.Game.Main(String[] args)

Suddenly I'm getting this error after game loads initial things. It ran well last time I used.

Hi all,

v1.44 is now available

Changelog

- reformatted commentary and score card
- tweaked wides in simulation mode
- update editor to save automatically when required

Cheers
Kurt

@User2010: Do you remember at what point exactly it crashes with that error?

Hi all,

here's a backup/restore tool for those who want to tinker with the editor. It'll backup/restore players, teams, grounds as well as flags.

Cheers
Kurt

@User2010: Do you remember at what point exactly it crashes with that error?

Just after the game loads the initial files, etc.

Now, I started the game and it is downloading an update. Will it also change the data or just update the app?

 

[kurtkz]

Uh oh, it's going to overwrite all the data too...sorry about that :/

----------

There's another link in my post for a backup/restore tool though.

Having problems uploading the saved game (including the pulsing marker issue) via PM here. =\

 

[Gaurav_7]

No worries, it saved the file in setup zip file. I accidentally clicked on the Cricket app again and it started downloading again, lol. Now used the backup and will restore it after the update. Really appreciate all your hard work and quick error solving/feature addition!

 

[kurtkz]

@itay: Can you email it to me at kurtkz @ yahoo dot com please?

@User2010: Yeah, I think I broke the autoupdater - will fix it up for the next version.

Wanted to know if there is a free hit after a no ball in ODIs? Also, commentary is still wayward.

9.4 T Southee hurls this through. He finds a fraction of movement off the surface. J Trott can't get the cover drive away. Fielded by H Amla - W

This doesn't make sense. I'd recommend you to have the commentary simple. I think you have got the code this way - Bowler-->Description of delivery-->Fielder. Maybe we can have it flexible?

Bowler to Batsman, Run scored/Wicket fell/No ball/Wide (Whatever), Description of the event

Also, can I be a little picky?

This was the scorecard I manually formatted yesterday. We can view it in coded format on PC without scrolling.

This is what game generates now. Can we eliminate those unnecessary spaces? Would look great!


Sorry to bug you with such minor things but, as I've been saying, it is all from leagues point of view. If you think it is unimportant for now, I won't mind if you left it.

@User2010: Hehe, no problem - your feedback is very helpful. I'll try to get it right in the next version

----------

EDIT: Yup, there are free hits in short formats - I don't think the commentary reflects this though...

Yeah, that's one more thing in your to-do list then.

 

[kurtkz]

Hehe, very true

You missed the ground editor form, it seems. Loving this editor though. Very easy to use now.
