Tennis Elbow 4 News

Build 74 - SubBuild 2022.2.7

[h2]Changes :[/h2]
- Surface : 2D Courts updated with the latest color changes
- World Tour : boosted a bit the strength of low-ranked women, especially around the rank #100

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- AI : the CPU was air swinging instantly when he couldn't reach a ball, instead of doing nothing
- AI : fixed a couple of cases giving slightly out of sync animations with the new syncing system
- World Tour : giving a good starting rank to a Junior was giving him ranking points for the Pro Tour instead of the Junior Tour
- Modding : if a Court.ini had an incorrect Type, then the game was crashing on start

Build 73 - SubBuild 2022.2.6

[h2]Changes :[/h2]
- Audio : added more echo to all the umpire announces

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- AI : the CPU should now never hit the ball out of sync (although I didn't test all cases, so if you notice a case where it still doesn't work correctly, please do a Bug Report => https://www.managames.com/Forum/topic5-31732.php )
- AI : the CPU wasn't stressed by playing against a much lower-ranked player than him
- Controls : the non-sliced sliding was preventing doing a defensive lob, instead of the drop shot & slice strike
- Controls : cannot run into the crowd stand anymore by doing circle running near them
- Gameplay : fixed a rare bug that was fully depleting the player energy
- Animation : since a couple of Builds, the player wasn't running anymore to the side on volleys and was doing sidesteps which were leading to weird-looking volley animations

Build 72 - SubBuild 2022.1.29

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Animation : the player could start to slide while volleying, leading to a wrong animation
- Animation : sliding wasn't triggering in some cases
- AI : when hitting on a end of the run, the predicted position for the CPU could be slightly wrong, leading to slightly out-of-sync animation (this is not a fix for the out-of-sync anim when the CPU arrives late on the ball ; this one will be fixed in a future update :fear: )
- Players : the outfit code wasn't applied correctly, making the World Tour players fully random

Version 0.49 - Build 71 ; SubBuild 2022.1.26

[h2]New Features :[/h2]
- Sound : new umpire voices, 1 from the UK, 1 from the US and 1 in German (thanks to Paulie, Bob Madden & Patrick Geyer !), and the base umpire voices have been redone as well
- Modding : new way to Mod the Grunt, all the court sounds, and the Umpire announcements => https://www.managames.com/Forum/topic60-33725.php

[h2]Changes :[/h2]
- World Tour : the women now serve about 4km/h faster when they have 50% in their Service Power skill
- World Tour : the players get tired faster if you have chosen to play with fewer sets than in real life (eg: a 1-set match instead of a best-of-3-set match)

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Animation : the player could jerk left/right before hitting the ball with the Fast Autopositionning (and possibly some other situation)
- World Tour : crash fixed when starting a new game with more than 1 player
- World Tour : Junior ranking was changing on reload during the 1st year of your career
- World Tour : loading an old saved game with a player chosen fro the base (instead of a created one) could make the game crash

Build 70 - SubBuild 2022.1.16

[h2]Bug Fixes :[/h2]
- Online : the sliding start was making the player display all corrupted
- Online : the racket could get permanently misoriented after a slide
- Gameplay : the sliding could make the player start a sliding forehand when he should be doing a normal backhand, and vice versa
- World Tour : loading an old saved game could crash
