Tennis Elbow 4 News

[h2]New Features :[/h2]
- Rendering : can change the brightness, both in the Video & Camera settings
- Rendering : different rendering tones can now be selected in Settings -> Video -> Advanced

[h2]Changes :[/h2]
- Stadium : moved a bit the Australian Slam roof, so its shadow isn't too close to the baseline, and fixed a few holes under the roof

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Players : fixed a few holes in the legs when the male player is very thin (and likely in other cases, as well as for the female player)
- Rendering : the sun elevation was incorrect when playing most World Tour tournaments
- Rendering : when the stadium hid the sun, the court could get too grey (I'm not 100% sure it's fixed in all cases, especially as Unity seems to be bugging when calculating the lighting in some special cases)
- Stadium : Shanghai walls had little holes
- Modding : couldn't see the socks whose names didn't begin by a number

[h2]Changes :[/h2]
- Rendering : tuned a lot of stuff so everything should be more visible when playing in the dark, late in the day, and on the side opposite the sun on mid-day
- Stadium : can now play at 19.00 & 20.00

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Rendering : Camera's Force Sun in the Back wasn't working with the new Time of Day option
- Stadium : fixed a few micro-tiny holes in several stadiums' walls that were making rays of light around the court when playing late in the day
- Match : the number of games to trigger the tie-break was still also used as the number of games in the last set
- Modding : the line judges were always getting the default position on Modded stadiums, instead of the stadium's specific position
- Modding : now all NPCs have a unique name, so they can be moved around if wanted

Another nice addition to the game : now you can select the time of the day and the sun will be positioned and move accordingly.

Personally, I was surprised by how much atmosphere it brings to the game, so I hope you'll enjoy it as well ! :-)

I did my best so everything is correctly displayed in the now widely different lighting conditions, but if you think it impairs your level, you can play with the default sun position like before.

[h2]New Features :[/h2]
- Stadium : it is now possible to select the Time of the Day in the Training Club (for outdoor stadiums), and a random time is chosen for the World Tour matches (you can change it, or disable it in Settings -> World Tour), while the sun positions also depend on the day of the year and the latitude of the current tournament location
- Outfit : can now choose to not have socks, both for the male & female players

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Tennis School : the done achievement was triggering right away
- Players : the male player's body shape in high detail was always the same ; now he can get skinny, muscular & fat as intended

[h2]Notes :[/h2]
- Rendering : exposure against the sun is now automatically changed, so if you were using ExposureAgainstTheSun in your Tennis.ini, it may create some strange results, especially when the whole stadium is in the dark at end of the day... :fear:
