Tennis Elbow 4 News

SubBuild 2022.5.2

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- World Tour : I had forgotten to assign the new Rome stadium to the Rome tournament... ːsteamfacepalmː
- Online : it might have been possible to lose ELO when getting disconnected on match start, and maybe when your opponent was joining & leaving right away your game lobby
- Camera : closing the game while watching a Replay with the Ball Following mode was letting the camera in that state forever (or till you manually changed it back in Settings -> Camera ːsteammockingː )

Version 0.57 - Build 86 ; SubBuild 2022.4.30

[h2]New Features :[/h2]
- Stadium : here come 3 new stadiums => Rome, Madrid & Monte-Carlo ! :dance:
- Menu : added a Back button in the Match Presentation screen
- Modding : you can now add this to your Stadium.ini to disable the court lines when displaying the associated 2D court :
[Code][Data]
LinesColorFor2D = 0
[h2]Changes :[/h2]
- Animation : when running to the net, the reach is lowered, so the player doesn't stretch too much in weird ways

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Animation : when the ball was far from him, the player was making a weird hip movement in the opposite direction at the end of his strike
- Animation : fixed another case where the CPU animation could get out of sync :sweat:
- Player : the player CRC was changing depending on the opponent
- Input : the game will now automatically disable XInput if you have more than 4 controllers plugged in (as 4 is the XInput limit, which could prevent seeing all your controllers in-game)
- World Tour : the mental skills were not correctly updated during the training when your player control was on CPU
- World Tour : there were not enough Junior players to fill the draw at the end of the year (as all Junior players had reached their tournament limit per year)
- World Tour : the game could crash when starting a new career with an existing player
- Modding : modded net textures were too bright

SubBuild 2022.4.15

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- World Tour : the game could crash when loading a saved game
- Camera : the Custom camera (in the Tennis.ini) wasn't working anymore
- Modding : the Stadium icons were getting all brown in the Stadium selection screen when scrolling the list up/down
- Modding : the additional Surface icons were not loaded
- Modding : sound selection wasn't working correctly when playing with the 2D Background on

Version 0.54 - Build 85 ; SubBuild 2022.4.13

[h2]New Features :[/h2]
- Stadium : here comes the indoor stadium for the Future & Challenger tournaments
- Surface : the default surface for the new stadium is acrylic, an affordable hard surface, relatively common in tennis clubs
- Modding : new way to add 2D courts, much easier, based on folders & names, like most of the parts in the game now (1) ; more info => https://www.managames.com/Forum/topic60-33904.php

[h2]Changes :[/h2]
- Gameplay : now it requires to prepare the strike for at least 0.75 seconds to fully benefit from having the precision above the power (so at 0.375s of preparation, you get only 50% of that bonus) ; that should prevent the player to be nearly immune against faults coming from a too big precision zone ; it's the same when having the precision below the power
- Gameplay : the precision boost from having the precision above the power for the attack, defense & sliced lobs was too big

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Gameplay : AutoPos on Fast could lead to wrong animation choice as the player was stopping to move a bit too late
- Animation : the wrong stretching anim could wrongly trigger if you were near the ball bounce (ie: forehand instead of backhand)
- Animation : the CPU could choose the wrong animation in a few extreme cases
- Animation : since the previous build, the animation transition could be jerky when striking the ball on the run
- 2 vs 1 : if CPU was alone against 2 opponents, he was aiming inside the singles court limits instead of the doubles ones

[h2]Notes :[/h2]
- (1) : if you already added 2D courts to your game, you'll have to convert them to this new method ; if you have the Mod by the XKT team, an update should come soon

SubBuild 2022.3.17

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Modding : since the last update, the game wasn't showing anymore the Modded animations
