I tested quickly and it seemed ok on my rig, but I play at 1920x1080.
Maybe try to activate Settings -> Camera -> Force Sun in the Back.

Me too FHD resolution.
I will try "Force Sun in the Back"

Edit:
Update: honestly I didn't see any difference

Fed1,
TE2013 wouldn't have been that good without the feedback of the communauty, by far, and I'm convinced it'll be the same for TE4, so thanks to you & everybody else reporting their experience with the game..! :yes:

duffer,
every 2 games, your player changes of end ; with that option, the sun changes of end as well. The screenshot you have posted is against the sun. With that option on, you'll never play against the sun.
If you activated it while the sun was in your back, it does indeed 0 difference right away.

:mrgreen: Yes, I know that every 2 games the players change of end. It was clear to me the sun option, but always have many reflections. The problem is not the reflections themselves, but with camera movements I have continuously sun reflections -> shadow -> sun reflections -> shadow and so on on some objects, typically on players bench and on judge's chair.
With sun locked in my back something better only on audience stands on the background.
I have attached a screenshot with sun on my back. I have highlighted on red where I have "flickering".

Sorry manutoo, I report a bad animation on IA. Simply in warm-up mode when I put the ball on the right the IA player load on her right but then hit the ball on her left.
I upload 3 frames as simple sequence to explain better.

Excuse me if I tell you the honestly the animation of players going back is terrible :wink:

Too many errors from the return of serve. the ball either just goes out or into the net. Can understand missing a few but the serves aren't even that fast to justify this constantly happening.

duffer,
could you make this happen on the 1st point of a warm-up send me a Bug Report right after ? (HowTo => topic5-31732.php )

For the reflections, I didn't see clearly the 1st time ; so I checked again and I lowered a bit the shiny effect to it should be a bit more stable (but still not 100%) for the next update.

conorb7990,
the errors are from you or the CPU ?

loveme2233,
you'll have to send me a Bug Report just before the freeze, but the latest Windows version can't send Bug Report from the menus so you'll have to wait for the next update.

manutoo
Both but mainly me, no real rallies being played. unforced errors count sometimes 50 plus and always higher than winner count. the majority are from the returns of serve into net or going out.

I think your positioning is just bad. I played ĺike 10 sets (online) already in last week and have not had any unorthodox issues with returns unless i screwed up. Tho i admit sometimes you get screwed by stretch anim, but again thats mostly because of bad positioning. I suggest you play with all helpers at first.

I've tried for an hour tonight, but cannot replicate the animation :( The other day it was constant. Is it possible a temporary situation? Very strange, when I took the pictures I gone in warm up mode and always had that animation just from 1st strike.

duffer,
hum, then it might be because you had changed some video settings, which perturbed the animation system ; I think I already noticed this bug or something similar a long time ago... :fear:

conorb7990,
use the slice on the return of serve, it's a safer strike.

I really like this game except two things.
1. Players who used to run in circle (like me) now have to change movement and I think it won't be easy to change something what you used 5 years.
2. Players can hit the ball faster than they hit service. I saw 178 km/h winner which is too much for me.

NESXA,
2) It depends on the frequency ; if this kind of speed doesn't happen too often, it's alright.

1.killing idiotic circle dance and its potential is Maybe th beat thing te4 did so far
2. I personally play with 85 power fh and 25 spin and hit max 168kmh fh in perfect conditions for a shor Like that. I figured someone with 0 spin and 100 power could hit around 180kmh. It happens rarely tho and depends on controls settings (happens off even less in elite)

I don't know how you are moving, but maybe you didn't learn how to run in circle so you don't know it's actually good. But it's probably not realistic and that's why it's removed but added 180km/h shots.
