TAOC Discussion

Well I get idiots PMing me all the time, filling up my inbox, and I only do silly little updates for games no-one plays (BLIC 2007, I'm talking to you!) - so I can imagine Paul gets a lot of rubbish sent to him like:

"Wen iz da gaem goin 2b released? I iz like reeeeeally lookin' 4wd to it bruv!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D"

Anyway I should say something on topic now....

Yeh Wel Maybe If You Told Me What To Do And REPLYED TO YOUR MAIL I Wouldnt Have To Send You 3 Or 4. I Asked You A Simple Question About CDS. Takes 5 Mins To Reply

Oh dear. Here we go. Apologies for going off topic LM....

The five-minute version of how to update your bats in BLIC 2007 is in the BLIC 2007 forum somewhere, which I know you have read. Sure, I could write a tutorial with screenshots and everything to show you how to do it, but it would take hours to do, and only about 3 people want it. Plus, you probably wouldn't understand it anyway.

I will repeat the five-minute explanation. The bats are in CDS format which is a compressed DDS format. Simply replace any CDS file with a DDS file, and change the file name from *.cds to *.cds in the BAG file header.

That is the last thing I will say on the matter.

Apologies again LM and everyone else for going off topic.
 
To LM: Did you get the PM I sent you a while back? I wondered if your inbox was full and therefore you didn't get it, or you just don't want to hear my ideas!

Why not simply post it in the Suggestions thread?
 
Well, to be honest, I don't want my suggestions getting lumped in with "there should be blood", "i want pigeons on the pitch" and all that sort of nonsense. It's a proper, fully-formed idea for a gameplay mechanic, not just a random suggestion.

I'm currently putting together a document of the idea as it would be hard to explain well in words.

UPDATE :

ok people....almost a month (i guess) since i posted here.....
really busy with some personal crap, india down under and
learning animation ;) !!

now, for those people who said the animations are crappy,not up to
the mark, scratchy etc etc......please try doing even the easiest of animations(e.g a simple catch)
and i guarantee you you'll be clueless as to what to do and where to start.....!
and even if you put in hours for it, your result will be crappy with
the animation not even close to what you had imagined before
making it !!

anyways.....will be helping out LM with the anims now......
so...heres my list :-

1) improve not so good ones...
2) remaining bowling actions i.e off spin, medium, left arm orthodox,
chinaman etc.....
3) bowler runups....
4) more fielding anims......
5) appeal/disappointment/celebrations etc,,

hoping to complete them as soon as possible......provided i dont
get obstructed due to unavoidable personal things...........!!!!!

yeah....its really painstaking and irritating to say the least......!!
leaves you with a big headache by the end of the day :p...

but its all worth it in the end though.............provided
the game becomes a hit !!
