and LM i am so happy that you are making this game about stats, stats, and more stats, there seems to be a stat to go with everything which is brilliant.

just watched the HQ vid, very impressed, you have done a very tidy job on this game, this is commercial quality no doubt, you should be very proud of yourself :hpraise
collision looks good, one thing i think is important though - will it be completely possible for an air shot to go any length possible from 10 yards to 90 and anything in between? i mean in EA and Blic there is usually a miss timed shot straight up, the one in the middle not very far but not a complete shank, the one thats caught on the fence, and the big six there doesent seem to be a randomness to the shots in EA or Blic - hope you know what im getting at
what codec do i need for the other HQ vids? i got the first one no problem, i tried watching the pull shot and the charge and it says something about a codec needed.

Try playing it in VLC (www.videolan.org/vlc/), if that doesn't work, I would take a guess that the codec is probably XviD (www.xvid.org)cricketer112 said:

thanks..
yep, that is what i have spent so many hours getting right...the ball literally can end up anywhere...no more garbage spiders with only one leg
i use Fraps to take the vids and it records .avi files so yeah, i assume Xvid...if you have a multi-codec then should be fine...if you dont then check out Storm codec - freeware

On the whole the video was great, I especially liked the full toss being smashed over cover, but a few points I think need to be improved:
1. The defense shot at the start looked poor. The bat started horizontal and just turned so it was vertical. Looked more like he was trying to guide it through the slip area.
2. The fast bowlers seem like they're falling over when they deliver the ball. It just doesn't seem fluent enough.
3. Maybe it's just the camera angle, but the batsmen really need to take a bigger stride forward, they just don't seem to be getting their front foot forward enough.

All seem true. That defensive shot felt awkward to me and the batsman is playing some awkward shots on the front foot as well.

leg spin action is great, although could be slowed down a tiny bit
the fast bowler does not leap at all in his delivery stride and the action is awkward
the strokes look great though, very well done
batsman doesn't take a big stride forward
in the next vid or screen, could you possibly show a sky sports overlay? :upray

hmm...well, allow me to counter some of those claims...
- stride - actually most of the shots in the video were back foot shots, only the coverdrives were front foot really...in any case ive attached some screens showing that his front foot does get in front...dont be fooled bythe camera field of view
- fast bowler action - he does in fact leap - again, screenshot attached - dont be fooled by the camera. I think while his action is not so great, it's not too bad considering the lack of motion capture available. It's really difficult to get the bowling actions done well.
- defensive shot - this was a back foot def to the off side...i dont think its that bad really..looks ok to me...
- camera angles - what exactly is wrong? Srk121 mentioned they were a bit too far away...ive rectified that now. Other than that i think they are quite good. Remember, im not trying to replicate EA or BLIC...things in this game may be done very differently. Doesn't mean its any worse though...
