Cricket Heroes - testing & feedback

[hedger_14]

It should be fine. Are there appeals in other formats? Cause I haven't had one yet in a split innings ODI.

@hedger_14: You mean referrals? If not, does the appeal meter appear at all? It should appear for snicks and when the ball hits the pad (without hitting the bat).

 

[hedger_14]

51/1 after 10 overs, South Africa are as Smith was the only wicket to fall, edging Bollinger to slip for 10. Amla is 27* off 34 and de Villiers is 9* off 15.

Bowling Figures:

Ben Hilfenhaus 0/18 (4)
Mitchell Johnson 0/13 (2)
Doug Bollinger 1/13 (3)
Nathan Hauritz 0/2 (1)

kurtkz, were you able to solve the error that I get when I play domestic cricket?

 

[hedger_14]

Well when it has passed the bat, the appeal meter doesn't come up and I can't tell when it hits the pads so I don't know.

----------

You also need to fix the batting and bowling powerplays (Bowling at least). 3 players should be allowed outside the circle, not 2 during those overs.

@hedger: Cool, it should be working. Hopefully when the 3D models are done, it'll be easier to see what's happening.

@Aditya: Give the new version a try? I haven't had the game crash in a while.

EDIT: Right you are, hedger, there should be 3 outside the circle not 2. Will fix in the next update.

 

[Aditya]

The game is still crashing. The game crashes when the batsmen is just about to play the ball.

 

[hedger_14]

South Africa finish their first lot of 20 overs at 81/3, losing 2 wickets in their last 2 overs, with Amla going for 41, AB for 24. The bowling figures were:

Ben Hilfenhaus 0/18 (4)
Mitchell Johnson 0/21 (6)
Doug Bollinger 2/14 (4)
Nathan Hauritz 0/18 (4)
Steven Smith 1/5 (2)

The left arm fast bowlers are too easy to bowl tight with, bowl a slightly short length aimed at the ribs and they can't score runs.

@hedger: Thanks for the feedback, I'll see what I can do about that. I have an idea but I'm not sure how it'll work...

@Aditya: Can you give me step-by-step directions about how you started your game? Teams, format, venue, etc?

 

[Aditya]

I deleted my previous cricket heroes folder. Created a new folder, installed update 12. Started the game, typed the key for the beta testers. Created a new profile. Then I clicked on domestic cricket - KFC t20 big bash and selected the team NSW. First match vs Queensland. Auto selected the squad for both the teams. Won the toss and I elected to bat first. Just when I was about to play the first ball of the match the game crashed.

 

[hedger_14]

And I'm exactly 100/1 after 20 overs. Paine is 48*, Khawaja is 32*, Watson got out for 4.

 

[kurtkz]

@Aditya: Thanks, that's perfect feedback - going to see now if I can reproduce the crash.

----------

@hedger: Great guns Any chance you can send me screenshots of your spiders please?

----------

@Aditya: Hmm, I tested what you said and it seems to work fine here...maybe try to save the game before you start your first game?

 

[hedger_14]

Here are Paine's and Khawaja's spiders. They had a third man all the time so I felt scoring down there would get me easy runs without taking any risks as well as not letting myself get frustrated by not hitting the gaps trying to score boundaries.

----------

Well the game crashed going into their second innings.

 

[kurtkz]

@hedger: Crap, sorry about that. Thought I'd killed all the bugs. Did it crash at any specific point? Also, could you attach the images to your post please? The network admins at work are blocking image links

Tried playing with a different team this time (Victoria) and got no error while batting.
