Adriatino,
the settings of the Training Club are the ones used to play online, so it's normal to have that player when you play a match while waiting for a host to join.

BTW, have you been able to play online ? Did it work correctly ?

polakis,
1) in this case, use the download link from your License Key email.

2) Do you use the short strike and/or the short acceleration to do your passing shots ? They are much more accurate when your opponent is at the net.
For the lob, several people reported it was overpowered... :fear:

JiJo,
1) Once the stretching anims will be in the game, it'll be good to do a Bug Report when you see an anim giving a too weird result.

2) it's in the engine but I had forgotten to add the option back in the menus ! It'll be in Settings -> Training Club for the next update, thanks to your report ! :yes:

Okay, my comment was probably ridiculous ':D

Unfortunately, I tried several times to wait for people (a quite long time), and I didn't find any player. However, I remember that one time, I had a message showing that a player was asking for the game information (I suppose that means he wanted to join my session), but he eventually didn't join :fear:

Adriatino,
if he didn't join, it might mean his ping with you was too high, or some kind of bug. :fear:

leo26,
no, got sh*tty stuff happened in my life (again :sweat: ), plus I realized I should check how to produce the low-detail player which might take a bit of time.

iloveme2233,
no ; the goal for June is to get the game in a decent state enough to be released on Early Access on Steam. There are still tons of stuff to do. :fear:

Hi,
The game looks really fantastic for me!
With a recent update, I finally found my favorite camera setup (from 2d camera). Im very happy that the scale of the camera angle settings in the TE4 is increased - I always missed it in TE2013.
I only have a small problem with graphic "artifacts" when the camera is moving (the problem doesn't exist when the camera is fixed).
It's about such horizontal stripes, shadows the width of the screen. I think it's some rendering issue (?) It's not "smooth"
Hope you can see it in this video:

After a few hours of playing TE4, switching to TE2013 does not make sense :)
Thank you for your job! It was worth waiting for so many years :)

In my 2nd pro year, about 18 weeks in, I had around 57 XP going into a tournament. I lost in R2 (it was a 500) and when I checked my character again I had 500 experience. I'm assuming this is a bug, is there anything to do to fix the situation or should I just restart?

Thanks :)

noname1988,
I looked at the video but couldn't see any flickering shadow that would take the whole width of the screen (if I got it that right :blackeye: ).

And I'm glad to know you're happy with the game. I just hope the next version of the new male player will please you more... ;)

Deathopus,
yes, it's a bug. You should be able to load an automatically saved game from before your last tournament. Could you try to win the 1st round (using the cheat code "MTKIL" to directly win the match - enter it on your keyboard) and then lose in the 2nd round, and if you get 500XP again, could you send me a Bug Report ? (HowTo => topic5-31732.php )

Hmm, did you watch in HD on Full screen? It is quite visible, such dark "waves".
record one more video with focusing - i think it will be more visible now . Please watch in HD.

Haha, but I really like old models! :lol:

Deathopus,
I fixed the bug in yesterday's build, thanks to your Bug Report..! :yes:

noname1988,
ok, it is unfortunately normal : the transparent shadows are unstable, so when the camera moves, it flickers a bit.

iloveme2233,
update about what ? :scratch:
