[Meet]

Could you ensure me that you can add a double bar scorebar as seen in WC?
Its detailed and we can get more information.

@Meet: Is that double bar always there? Or is it just there at certain times?

 

[Meet]

yeah, its always there.It shows the result, the scores of batsman, total boundaries/sixes hit, six distance, etc.
An offtopic question-don't you watch the WC?Or is the scorebar different there.

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: Unfortunately I'm at work when the games are played :/ I'm not sure if I'll get time to change the score bar for the next update, but I'll see if I can get it ready for the release after that.

Hehe, so we pretty much will just appeal for everything.

 

[kurtkz]

@hedger: I was thinking about that - what if the umpires get annoyed by incessant appealing? The more annoyed they get, the less favourable their decisions will be.

 

[hedger_14]

Meh, but what about nicks. How are you going to be able to tell? Cause there's no sound and a faint edge won't move the ball at all.

@hedger: I was thinking about that - what if the umpires get annoyed by incessant appealing? The more annoyed they get, the less favourable their decisions will be.

But it should be appealed everytime when it hits the pads?

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: What about nicks?

@hedger: Yup, that'll be added soon-ish. I might push out the release till next week to get this all incorporated.

Kurtkz, I'm not able to play Autralian domestic. If I play, Sheffield shield or KFC t20 Big Bash just when the first ball is about to bowl I get a message "cricket.exe has stopped working, windows is checking for a solution.". I haven't played Supersport series or Standard bank pro20 yet but I'll try it as well and will let you know if I get the message while playing these two tournaments as well.

 

[kurtkz]

@Aditya: Thanks, I'll see if I can spot the problem.

@Meet: What about nicks?

You can get that button active if we don't want to refer it, we can press enter to proceed further.

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: I don't want to inform the user that there's a snick visually - ideally, they should have to listen for the snick. In that case it makes more sense to not prompt the player - the player should have to appeal.

 

[Meet]

You can make it active when it goes pass the bat, to avoid informing the user.

 

[kurtkz]

@Meet: That's essentially the same as having the user press "appeal" but requiring that he clicks a button...
