[session]

Benn would be great for westindies and for india its perfect zaheer and Harbhajan

Wow, they are amazing. Loved the action of Lee in the second video, but his model could be better. Do you guys plan editable models (like height, built, etc.) for users or non editable ones?

And whose action is it in the first video, Warne?

Thanks.
well, we have planned different heights and weights. but havent really gone into the details of it. its a bit too early for that.

yup...it was based on warne.

 

[_Nabeel_]

even Umar Gul jumps quite a bit doesnt he ?

Hmmm...yes You are right...

eDIT:I got three differences in Umar Gul's,Zaheer's and Nehra's run up

Umar Gul-He jumps quite a bit but don't stop his movements while in the air(I think so)

Zaheer-He jumps high and stops all his movements(including hands) while e is in air.

Nehra-He don't jump at all.He comes straight running to the pitch and bowls while running...The only thing I like in this run up is the distance between his two legs....

BTW,we can have Mill's runup for NZ and as some one said Benn or Russell for Windies would be nice..

is the sarcasm smiley - if you're using it when you're not being sarcastic, people will think you are.

Aah!
I was expecting more than 2 unique bowling actions for each country.
Maybe 10?:P
Also I hope there will be unique batting action too.Can those actions be modded later?:P

 

[AbhishekS]

I don't think the animations would be editable and neither do I think that the batting animations should be required. Will create an extra burden on them for no reason!

 

[Varun]

Great to see this back. I wasn't around here when the game was in-development, but have read a lot about it on the forum itself.

 

[harrisb]

Guys, this is only the 'Alpha' stage of the game, once they get a stable (playable) release, jk might have a look at adding another couple of actions in.

So for those countries who don't have a spinners action on that list, they would just use a generic one or another players action.

Wouldn't it be useful to include Nehra, at the moment there doesn't seem to be many left-handers on that list.

The player model could be improved. maybe someone else can work on the player models?

 

[jkartik]

not just the player model, but the stadiums, textures / 2D art etc....
is all below average.....

unfortunately we dont have the money or the time to do it.

if someone could pitch in with High Quality models and textures...it would be awesome.
