Cricket Heroes - testing & feedback

[kurtkz]

I'm hoping to release the next update tonight (it's 11.30AM right now).

 

[kurtkz]

Hi everyone,

I've just uploaded a test patch for v2.17 here. Changelog:

- fixed run outs
- tweaked field friction
- tweaked fielding
- tweaked batting
- tweaked simulation
- lots of changes to career mode
- adjusted batting animation to be 25% faster (should make batting easier)
- added hedger's English rosters

Notes:

- I haven't included flags for the new teams yet, I'll do that tomorrow
- I've disabled shaders for now so that I can figure out why it's not working on certain PCs (it should also be a bit faster)

Cheers
K

btw, didn't you already have a patch 2.17?

----------

- added hedger's English rosters

You updated my other ones as well, right?

----------

and are you going to make the English domestic competitions?

 

[kurtkz]

Yup, I messed up the version number. This is the latest gor now though. Yup, I'm going to add the English domestic leagues tomorrow too.

----------

Forgot to mention that this includes all the players from your latest roster

 

[hedger_14]

btw, on manual lineups in career mode, you can still choose the teams for computer teams. Bit weird since you edited that out last time

Can you change that though?

----------

And you need to fix the points still. It's fine at the start but after the first game, it comes up with -1/-1 points and you can just put all your skills up as much as you want.

 

[kurtkz]

No problem, I'll take a look at it tomorrow. That's weird though...does it always happen that the points get set to -1/-1?

 

[hedger_14]

Well I know it did in the last version of the game and I pointed that out but you must have missed it.

----------

And boring figures of 0/8 off 1 over and didn't bat. So a lovely start to my career. I'm a batting all-rounder though and was batting at 5 but we only lost 2 wickets

----------

0/6 off 1 and didn't bat again..

 

[hedger_14]

16 off 13 and 0/4 off 1 in my 3rd game.

 

[hedger_14]

7 off 7 and 1/6 off 1. Finally got my first wicket. Wish I could get a few more overs though

----------

0/5 off 1. And uh, somebody bowled 4.4 overs...

----------

And so you can only play one season in career mode?

 

[hedger_14]

Uh, crash after simulating a domestic game. I was just continuing my old save game so that might be the problem but idk.

Uh, you didn't update the rosters... At least the English rosters.

 

[kurtkz]

Thanks for the feedback hedger, I'll get those bugs fixed up ASAP. Are the English teams not there? Maybe I forgot to copy the team and player databases...

 

[hedger_14]

Yeah, nothing of the English rosters are there. I don't think you included them in the patch.

 

[kurtkz]

Bugger :/ Is there nothing under Domestic teams in Exhibition matches?

 

[hedger_14]

Nope, that was the second thing I checked.

 

[kurtkz]

Cool, I'll make sure that the release goes out properly later today. I think these late nights are getting to me :P
