The Art of Cricket is back - Read PlanetCricket's Exclusive Interview

Have you seen his C07 mods, graphically outstanding, the attention to detail is outstanding.

 

[Zaxotes]

No..Its not the issue zaxotes..
Whats the problem in getting dual layer DVD...More important thing is that you will be getting your dream Cricket game,which till now considered only to gameplay but now it is looking forward to graphics also...

In short,You are getting a complete game that any International company was unable to do till now..

No, I did not mean it would be difficult to get. As an experienced and a well known modder of Cricket 07, I know what a higher detail texture eats up. A 887kb Stadium '.big' file grows to 11.6mb when High Quality images and realistic items are added into it.
And I totally agree with you in regard with a Dream Game but the Size also matters right...? Who finds interest in downloading a 3-4gb game from internet? Imagine the state of Dial-up users!
And we have a solution too, we should build a torrent and all PC members should seed it.

I guess as long as the game is both graphically and AI wise good, people will never talk about its size.
If the game is free then we do not have any issue with piracy so we can easily release even box version of the game.

A 887kb Stadium '.big' file grows to 11.6mb when High Quality images and realistic items are added into it.

EA for example saves those textures as BMP files inside the game, so there's no compression applied to them. Using PNG like TAOC proabably does means the file size increase isn't that sort of magnitude.

That said, hi-res textures only need to be used where the low ones would stand out too badly, a face that's only ever rendered ~256px at the most doesn't need a 2048k texture to it.

[sunnygull]

cricketing tearing my hair out since morning trying to make this alpha release on time!!!

we both have been so far up our lazy asses, this deadline sure gave a kick up our rear ends. working under pressure sucks.....BUT is definitely more goal oriented and has an unusual way of getting things done.

Countdown begins guys......5 more hours to go..........

fingers crossed!

P.S - loving the new "TAOC Developer" Tag and the purple colour!! YAY!!!!

 

[Meet]

Eagerly waiting for the release

 

[AbhishekS]

What will be the approximate size of the alpha version?

 

[jkartik]

What will be the approximate size of the alpha version?

not much.......150mb MAX!
very tentative right now....could be very less or more...depends on how LM compiles it all.

 

[arun687]

Glad to see you guys resumed the project. It would have been a shame if all your work since the last 5 yrs would have gone to no use.

Looking forward to the Alpha 0.1.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

I will be waiting for 5.30 then

 

[jkartik]

just the thought of it scares the ████ out of me!!
