still slowly but still surely, TE4 advances.
![blackeye :blackeye:](https://static.managames.com/Forum/images/smilies/icon_blackeye.gif)
We have now reached the Early Version stage : all the visual elements from TE2013/TEM2 have been replaced by the ones for TE4.
The main next steps are :
- gameplay tuning & improvements
- animation improvements
- commentaries
- 10 new stadiums
- sound improvements
- new features : single tournament mode, service training, etc.
- Full Modding support : only the outfits are noticeably missing now, but other parts will be improved too
