sid_19840's Ultimate AI Patch(V3.0b released)

[JANER]

I find the back foot on drive still too powerful and I am glad to see the leg glance is far harder, because the version b4 I used it was far too easy.
Each patch/version you do is def improving though.

/I play on medium

 

[sid_19840]

made back foot on drive powerfull,so that cpu can play more run scoring shots against spinners,so i hope u agree.

Keep the posts coming,very helpful

Hey

I found with advance shot to either side tend to go the wrong way sometimes. For instance, I tried to hit (without six hit) an advance right shot (right handed batsman) and it went for six down the off side!!!! A couple of other times the shots seemed to go the wrong way as well...

ok,ill look at it,are the others having similar problems,

In a way its good as sometime mistimed shots in real cricket when the hit the bat in the wrong place can go in opposite direction.

Anyway ill have a look at it.Do u like my hard mode patch?

 

[plant4]

I am still finding it very good power seems pretty real,as you say the variation in where the ball goes depending on timing is good,i find the batsmens movements are much better in this patch ,havent tried the advanced shots yet,the best patch yet no doubt,any one who is having trouble batting should try this one i think they will find it a lot more realistic..... keep it up sid dont be afraid to try a few things,maybe bowling cursor if you can just for some slight variation in line and length?????

 

[sid_19840]

Thanks plant

Im trying to get in the variable line and length thing,any help on this would be appreciated,thanks for praising me on my hard work and i will not be hesistant in trying things out as uve seen before with variable pacing,bowling cursors and now variable difficulty.

It is good patch overall.your work is improving.If it is your hard mode only normal patch then it is working really fine but if it is the hard mode of hardcore patch then it is easy I believe

I felt that six hit shots are still bit easier to play.It is nice for Intermediate hard patch.Can you tweak some shots in such a way as if it mistimed go back in gully and slip area.Plus I hit a six of very first ballI have noticed that well timed shots are going for six But I think it should not be possible in hardcore patch in hard mode as you can hit a six on first ball but timing should difficult so we tend to play more safe shots..Anyway,nice try and this patch is improving with the passage of time.

The problem with a game like cricket is it cannot be simulated exactly there are way to many variables,not only within the game but the way people play,the trouble with getting diff scenerios for diff shots is it effects other things balance is the key i think. I would like to see more 2s run it seems to be 1 or 4 at the moment,somehow adjust the pace of the grounds,i think sid and eddie should get together sids shots are really good and eddie has done some good work with the bowling cursor and has somehow adjusted the pace of the grounds....

 

[sid_19840]

thanks hero and plant

Ill try making six hitting tougher in early periods of the game.Thanks.

Any other things that can be improved(currently working on improving hard mode)

Can your fields simply be dropped into the game directory to work?

Reason I ask, the Field Editor doesn't run on my PC for whatever reason, missing a file. Something beginning with C, have to make a note of it.

 

[sid_19840]

yes,download v1.5(Beta) and extract the .xml files into the main directory,it will work and has both test and odi fields.

Let me know abt them after uve used it.Thanks

Hey sid I edited the power of the shots in ur file 133a.big of V1.2 . It turned out to be be good and realistic. Now edges are like fast . the ball touches and flies. i jus wabt u to check this file out and make some some changes if u dont mind.

-Make six hit difficult
-check on suare cut six shot bcos whenever i try it the ball goes towars mid on.
- jus take an overall look over it.
=the poer on each and every shot is awesome.
-And for th next patch please change some fields setting and fround speed if u can bcos i feel the poer on these shots look so real....

Thannxz man...... Let me Know.............

Waiting for ur new patch.

[sid_19840]

ok,ill look at it,but im making three different modes of difficulty for the next patch,so each will differ frm the other wrt difficulty,so ur suggestions will be included according to difficulty level.

What fielding changes would u like to see?

 

[Damolee]

yes,download v1.5(Beta) and extract the .xml files into the main directory,it will work and has both test and odi fields.

Let me know abt them after uve used it.Thanks

Well, to be totally honest I am pretty much close to uninstalling the game and burning it out in the back yard. For some weird reason for days I had the nack for it, now I am struggling to even get any runs except for leg glances in ODIs.
No idea why man, doesn't reflect badly on your patch though as it's very good, but seeing as every single cover and straight drive doesn't penetrate the field at all, hard to judge the rest of the changes because I am simply not enjoying the game right now lol

 

[sid_19840]

try using the fields,i think it will be easier especially in odi's.Also im trying to bring in variable line and length so that cpu bowls a lot more balls on off stump.So im trying my best to get u all playing the game more often.I just hope i can crack this problem.

Are the fields working now?
