Hello Manu,

So happy that the SmokeColor can be set invisible now. It has been my only issue when doing long rallies. Thank you so much!

I've just found that the Player1753 is named Holger~Vitus~Nodskov Rune and was born in 1954 in the newly updated Players.ATP.Ini. This guy must have been someone else. Any new top 20 players are not supposed to be included yet, are they?

After the last update the controls fail when I go to play on steamdeck. I have tried other controller configurations but with the official one the gamepad goes crazy.

The night setting looks great (have only tried with Australian Open so far), but with the latest update, when I switch to play at night and then try to switch back to default, it still stays in the night setting.

dongtaipo,
as you can see in the changelog => viewtopic.php?p=285827#p285827 , I still didn't update the Tour bases. I hope to do it this new week...

Dex,
read here => topic5-34503.php .

Brad1981,
it'll be fixed in the next update, thanks to your report !
Meanwhile, you can set the time to 12.00, then Default.

Thanks Manu, I also noticed something else. When setting the time to 18:00 or 19:00, the ball is really dark and unseeable.

Brad1981,
on what stadium ?
It may be due to having a dark monitor. You can raise the ball size and/or the Exposure in Settings -> Video or Camera.

[Brad1981]

The Australian Open, and I randomly chose Monte Carlo, and it was very dark there too on the ball. Night is fine. It is just the 18:00 and 19:00 times.

Brad1981,
I can see the ball fine at 19.00 on the AO Stadium. If I raise the Exposure, it's awful though, so it might not be a solution for you either. I guess you can only make the ball bigger or play another time...
If other people report that same issue, I'll check if I can find a more global solution...

[Brad1981]

Ok, I'll see if I can change a setting. I have the latest computer, so everything should work, but I'll check. Also, starting with Build 80 (just released), the updater just hangs. If I download the full version and install that, will my settings be overwritten?

[manutoo]

Brad1981,
no, you won't have any issue.

Manu...for the new patch I have two questions:

1. You say to use full patch v TE4-patcher. I always launch game with the TE4-patcher and it takes about 90 seconds to load commentaries. Am I using the correct item to launch the game?
2. You say you can start a new game with 2023 ATP players if you haven't modded players. Are you talking about modding ATP.ini? I did add a player and it started at 2020. After removing the player, it still started at 2020? What am I doing wrong?

[manutoo]

knich,
1) No ; on Windows, download the full installer to get the new TE4-Patcher ; on Mac, download the new TE4-Patcher from your License Key email (and you might have to delete the "Documents/Tennis Elbow 4" folder as well)

2) You need to get the new Players.ini from the latest Modding SDK : topic60-33540.php

[knich]

Got it working. Thanks.

I'm also having trouble seeing the ball in the Indoor Challenger court and Indoor TET250 courts. The same issue as with the 18:00 and 19:00 times on the outdoor courts. Something with the way the lighting is. The ball is hard to track in these 4 instances.

Brad1981,
could you send me a Bug Report from the Indoor Challenger, to be sure the rendering is the same as on my PC ? (HowTo => topic5-31732.php )
