Sorry mate, its just u.
beefy both said:I was playing for australia against england and warne was bowling to giles around the wicket,giles seemed to play a forward defensive shot and miss, benaud and the umpire acknowledged it as a four and the game froze,unfortunely i did not have fraps running to capture the error message.
dunno y this happens. try uninstalling the patch by deleting both the .BIG files, then running the game, and then re-installing the patch.
Coopa said:O.K, me and a Friend have played quite long and hard with your patch. It is great but obviously I have some suggestions, the problem is most of them revolve around making the computer bowl in better positions, and slowing down the outfield and fielders.
-Easier Cuts (you have said you have had a look at this which is good)
-Better Field Placings (could they be a little more intelligent and change when you start scoring in the same area and side.)
-The only edges I have ever got is when the ball is angled in at leg stump with a little swing. You hardly ever edge it when going for a drive and mis-timing.
-Less easy to leg glance. The power and direction is good but you should be punished for bad timing more, I can play really early and still angle down to fine leg or really late and not edge it.
I'm sorry if it seems picky, but it really is brilliant. Amazing in fact.
Easier Cuts - Looking into it. Strangely if u notice, when cpu plays it(Cuts shots and BF Cover drive), he is able to hit it wth good power, when we hit...the shot has less power. Dunno y this is happening.
Field Placing - We cant change how cpu places its fielders through A.I. editing. Strangely, in Cricket 2004, cpu used to place 1 fielder where most of the runs are scored, this 1 fielder placement is absent in Cricket 2005.
Edges - Ironically, I havn't had a single edge in ODI myself, but wth my patch others seem to get good amount of edges, so dunno how to fix it for those who do not get edges.(incl. myself)
Leg Glance - Direction & Power tweaked.
Mahesh Babu said:Does this support test matches?
Actually i dont play c2005 that much.
I played as Ind vs Eng at lords,normal pitch
First innings ind 57allout
eng auto played it (bowling boring) 622-2 decl.
ind second innings 80allout.I did my best to bat well in second innings but cpu most of the time bowled at the stumps and due to that it was difficult to bat and boring as I play only leg glance,on drive shots.
Please increase the Maxpositionadjust value.
Hey batting should be fun man not this kind of boring.
yes it supports test matches as well.
as i have said.....over....n over n over........cpu bolwing on stumps is a bug in cricket 2005, if just trying to fix it wth a.i. editing(dunno if its possible)
Mahesh Babu said:Batting is easy
Use legglance,ondrive shots .
When CPU bowls a yorker (which it bowls 60% of the time ) press 'S' button just when the ball is released from the bowler's hand.
tutsi look at these points for 1.4
*fielders misfield a lot and animation still shows as if they are throwing the ball.
*Fielders seem to move too fast
*CPU bowls at stumps 90% of time (this is really frustating ).This is making me to play legside shots 90% of the time.
*CPU is not playing legglance shot.Instead its playing ondrive shot only.
*I get edges only in tests.
*I haven't got any edge from CPU in normal,hard conditions in ODI.(its just missing the bat)
*CPU never tried to leave the ball in ODI.
*Would like to see good field settings with third man.(this will make the game more genuine)
One thing is for sure This game will never be better than BLC99 in terms of smooth gameplay.
One more thing,im new to C2005 can anyone tell how to edit players?
Players Miss-fielding - Can only be changed wth a player editor.
Players moving too fast - Can only be changed wth a player editor.
CPU bowling at stumps - I think i have answered this way too many times.
CPU not playing leg glance - FIXED
Edges only in test - Same wth me, but most seem to get good edges in ODIs too.
CPU not leaving in ODIs - Why should they? They need to score as many runs as possible.(PLZ do not try to compair Cricket 2005 wth REAL Cricket)
Field Settings - Cant change as to how cpu places its fielders wth a.i. editing.
In Swinger said:The AI is still too easy to bowl out in 50 over
ODI's(proper bowling), even with Tutsi's or Eddies
AI patch. They just get bogged down after loosing
a few wickets and they're usually bowled out
around 30 overs.
Well that's how my games seem to go anyhow
This getting bogged down period really needs some
serious attention
that wont be the case wth 1.3, pacing have been re-done.
christy_lenin1 said:When is 1.3 patch going to be released waiting for it. Many told they got lot of edges i didnt got even a single edge so far try to make more edges. And leg glance is going into the same direction which is irritating,try to change the direction of the ball according to the timing . I hope these changes in ur next patch
Release will take time.
Edges thing has been answered.
Leg glace as been tweaked.
