Hey guys,
This is my 3rd straight patch after 2011, 2012 and this one and so far everyone liked it alot (I actually heard that the creator of a tennis game, I prefer not giving the name as I'm not sure of that, was playing with my patch) so I will keep making them for now. Hope that you will enjoy it!

Before going any further read this!
This year I felt frustrated that last years people were using basically 3/4 of my patch to make a new "patch" made "by them". So this year to keep the originality of this patch that exists since 3 years now, I have decided that anything in this patch that has NOT been published publicly by me CANNOT be used in any other patch except ITST (ex: faces, outfits, data ect...). And with the help of manutoo, I will have to delete any topic/patch that has any content from my patch in theirs. Hopefully this shall encourage the arrival of new original and decent modders such as rogerfed1 and other animators that will come up will their own stuff.

Read everything and don't ask questions that are answered here!

Content of the 2013 Megapatch (Briefly)
-Complete Top 100 Men Tour, Most of the Top 200, some outside it all "licensed" with similar strokes ect...
-All the 2013 Men Tour courts updated till Roland Garros. Most of the Men Tour Challenger courts. Nets change automatically considering the court you are playing on.
-A heavily worked PlayersATP.ini, with stats almost perfectly accorded to the real tour (for 100% of the licensed players). This year the user Teisinho helped me giving realistic Serve stats to the players according to the real database. 1st serve percentage will be also very accurate for each player.
-Outfits that can be changed manually according to the current tournament in world tour like previous years patches.
Overall you will have a very complete Men Tour experience like last years, even more this year.

looks awesome as always sam ! It would be nice a statboard selector, scoreboard selector and a net selector for training mode !

[gae1000]

Great sam

[barmar2011]

hi friend, i want to know where s the link to download it updated as u tell us, can u copy the link for patch and instruction to installit here????????????? tns a lot im waiting!!!!!!!! tnxsssssssssssssssssssss

[manuparody]

hi could you make a patch for version 1.0c

[SamModder]

nachocruzado,
I don't see the utility of a scoreboard selector honestly, as the scoreboard automatically changes in the world tour. Statboard either, no use of having a selector as Hamzafederer, kersou and his team made some of the scoreboards (hopefully all of them soon) automatic in world tour. Net selector won't work as nets are loaded on startup and therefore a ingame selector won't work, you will have to quit the game each time and start it again.






Del Potro Indian Wells 2013 outfit, pretty tough one (Especially the shorts...)

[linaroger]

Can u add SYDNEY ROTTERDAM and Pattya Scoreboard ?????

[linaroger]

and can u make the statboards change automaticlly?

[phucnguyen0209]

Very incredible,Sam but in the Copa Claro Scoreboard,it's ATP500 but in fact it's ATP250,can you fix that.

[SamModder]

linaroger,
Some statboards already change automatically in world tour. For the scoreboards, I would have done it, but someone has to create it as I don't create scoreboards.

phucnguyen0209,
Thanks for letting me know! I made a silly mistake in a HUD file. It's now fixed.

Oh and if you have a wishlist or anything you would like to be in this 2013 version, go ahead and make suggestions, I will try my best to have them in.

Hi Sam

Ma suggestion personnelle pour la release de ta version 2013, serait de sauvegarder tous les court.jpg, en qualité jpg 9-10 environ, au lieu du max (12) sous photoshop (je ne sais pas si tu modifies l'original ni quel soft tu utilises). Globalement ça permet de diviser par 3 le poids du mod, sans différence de qualité perceptible ingame.
