Stretching Animation [prevents to reach the ball]

Postby MaceG1 » 17 Jul 2022, 04:36

Hello. I must say, I love TE4. It's amazing. I think the movements and ball striking is fantastic. My biggest and only complaint about the game is the "stretching animation". It is triggered WAY TOO OFTEN. Especially on balls that are easily reachable. And it always seems to happen when it's a break point or set point haha. Is there a way to remove it on tennis.ini? Or a way to stop it from being triggered so often. I just hate the animation because you cannot reach the ball and it often happens while i'm in the middle of running towards a ball. It's made it very difficult to have long rallies with the CPU. Thanks.

Hello,

the next time it happens near the beginning of a match, and you're 100% sure you'd have touched the ball if the stretching animation didn't trigger, could you please send me a Bug Report ? (HowTo => topic5-31732.php ) .

Normally the game checks you cannot reach the ball before triggering this animation, so maybe there's a bug in some special case... :fear:

I'm still having the same issue. I have a video where the opponent hits a slow slice ball and the stretching animation is triggered WAY TOO Early. I wish we could just turn it off some how and just allow the player to run to the ball. Is there any way of doing this? My player is very fast so the stretching animation doesn't make any sense. Is there a way to actually slide towards the ball? It's very annoying and stops so many rallies early.

As stated in the previous message, send me a Bug Report when it occurs, else I cannot do anything...
