[Monzi]

It worked. Will make a Feedback Soon.

Ok I downloaded the latest version, it asking me for user id and key what should I put there.

@Allrounder18: You can click on "Free Beta" to play the demo

So...I need to start replacing copyrighted material in the game. First to go will be player & team names (don't worry, I'll keep a super secret patch with the proper ones), followed by the advertising hoardings.

Wrt to the latter - does anyone have a product/company they'd like to advertise in the game? No charge. All I need is a small-ish banner. PM me if you'd like to take up the offer.

Thank you! I honestly can't bear playing it with spoof names.

 

[kurtkz]

Oh, there's also pitch ads if you want to advertise something bigger. These will be displayed during tournaments/domestic series.

 

[dancingmongoose]

Gonna do another round of testing very soon, so if you want to upload a patch Kurt do it now

 

[kurtkz]

I'd love to but I'm at work and the patch isn't ready yet :/

 

[dancingmongoose]

Cool I'll just give you another half dozen bugs to iron out then

 

[kurtkz]

Haha, right you are

Ok, playing as a bowling all-rounder this time. Came in at 5 and clobbered 3 sixes (yes I'm getting the hang of it) before being runout. It's annoying that the AI gets the final say on runs, I didn't want the second but they did and I payed the price, while earlier I wanted an easy two but they decided to turn around halfway down. And despite us using 6 bowlers, I wasn't one of them and I'm a bowling all-rounder.

Ok, I'm set to open the batting in the next match. Odd
Nup came in at 5

Ok, so I'm at the non-strikers end and the striker hooks it, the keeper runs after it and bam

@dancingmongoose: Is that with the latest patch? Hmm, that crash should've been fixed. I think I've set the bowling stats too low when your character is generated. I'll up it and that should fix it.

 

[dancingmongoose]

2.34 is the latest isnt it?

Got to play the second game again (saved after game 1) no crashes this time, my knack for quick runs has got me to level 2 for the first time ever! Spent all the points on my bowling

 

[kurtkz]

Hehe, that's awesome Does leveling happen fast enough? Keep in mind that you start the game as an 18yr old.

EDIT: I really need to write a manual.

 

[dancingmongoose]

Levelling is fine if you actually bat. Unless you take wickets as a bowler you arne't rewarded, even with an economy of 3 in a T20 tournament
