Editing World Tour Schedule

Postby Guest » 19 Jan 2006, 14:39

I have found Tennis Elbow really great in many aspects. It's a true pro tour simulation and is a great example of how all tennis games should be made. Now, is it any way possible to edit/create your own tournament schedule? For example, editing the name, amount of points, prize money, surface type, draw size, etc. for all of the tournaments? I would just love to use this as a simulator for a mock-schedule (as it is). I already have bought the game and everything, so I have already paid for it. Some sort of hack for this? If you need to e-mail me about this privately, my e-mail is: jglagjglag(at)yahoo dot com. Thanks!

Never mind. I think I found it (in the data folder).

I still have one question. If I want to keep the current default tournaments and players, but create my own as well without replacing it, what can I do? Do I have to completely download the whole product again (and change it in one of the programs), or is there something else I can do more practical?

Hello,

1st, thanks for the nice comments ! ;)

And so yes, you have explanations in the file Data\HowToMod.html , and the Tour schedule is in Data\Tour.Ini .

If u want to be able to play in parallel your modified Tour and the original one, then yup, you have to install the game twice, in 2 different directories.

If you just want to do a backup, then just backup the files before to modify them.

By the way, everytime I switch the tournaments schedule code and stuff, does it mess up my current "campains" because everything is different?

yup, it does, except if you modify tournament that was not already played, or going to be played (2 weeks forward than the current).

So you should start a new game after you did modifications, else you could get some bugs.

Ok I guess I might as well just download it again in a different folder and have 2 separate programs. Thanks for the help (what a great game)!
