Version 0.79 - Build 101 ; SubBuild 2023.1.28:New Features :- Stadiums : night session for all the outdoor stadiums
- Engine : upgraded to Unity 2021.3.16f
- Modding : added the support for the Country in the online mode
- Modding : change this line in your Tennis.ini, under [Display], from : (HowTo =>
topic19-32161.php )
- Code: Select all
SmokeColor = 0xFFFFFFFF
to :
SmokeColor = 0x1FFFFFFF
for a less visible acceleration smoke.
Or to :
SmokeColor = 0x00FFFFFF
to make it completely invisible.
Changes :- Stadiums : completely reworked the lighting changes when the sun moves to avoid strange lighting conditions ; in Shanghai, the night session triggers as soon as there's not enough light anymore
- Commentaries : the commentary pack is now bundled with the game
- AI : the CPU has now significantly better reflexes on the return of serve, especially on Pro level & better
- AI & gameplay : the left/right human & AI return position tuned, to better take into account the slice effect ; this should significantly lower the sliced aces against the CPU
- Stats : better detection to determine if an Unforced Error is actually a Forced Error
- CPU vs CPU : lowering the Attacking Rate will now have a stronger effect on the player
- Gameplay : the players now rest a tiny bit between the 1st & 2nd serve, but only their Breath
Bug Fixes :- Physics : the ball's possible landing zone shape wasn't an oval as shown by the aiming zone
- online & match replay : desync fixed when the returner moves before the 1st serve of the 1st point of the match and triggers the auto-step back and it's not his or his opponent's 1st match of the game session (this could also lead to an unending desync)
- online & match replay : desync fixed when releasing the buttons early on the service
- online : if had played a match before, the game could desync on the 1st point
- online : the extra service info of Modded anims wasn't loaded, possibly leading to desync
- World Tour : fixed a crash on saved game loading when there was only 1 Country Cup event per year (which is the case with the XKT Patch v2.1, on the Women Tour)
Notes :- if you play an online tournament match soon, it's strongly recommended to play the game for at least 30 minutes to get acquainted with the slight changes in the ball landing zone

- if you notice some stadiums with bad lighting at certain hours of the day, please let me know
- /!\ Important : download the full installer ; the previous version of the TE4-Launcher isn't able to download the commentary pack, and thus it can hang and prevent to launch TE4 (it may happen only for the following update) ; on
MacOS, re-download the TE4-Patcher (from your License Key email)
