Comments about latest additions in TE4 version 1.0b

Postby manutoo » 07 Sep 2026, 09:19

Hello,

post in this topic your comments about the version 1.0b (whose details & changelog are there : topic15-38727.php ), especially its latest additions & changes.

For everything else, including suggestions, open a new topic, it'll be better to avoid clogging this topic... :blackeye:

Note : If you get a Bug, you're usually better off doing a Bug Report from within the game ; HowTo => topic5-31732.php .

Is the crowd audio bug fixed? I can’t see it in the notes.

I was wondering why i wasn't able to get easy points from the net until i saw this LOL. Also was the ball preview that comes out when ball hits and goes over the net always there? Or it came with this update?

Nicky Gi.,
I do not include small changes that concern very few people in the changelog, so it stays relatively small and readable for everybody.

Jirafalox & Robertoleal25_,
thanks. :)

goingballistic,
it's fixed in today's update.

All this time? :( I thought it would take about two weeks.

Okay, I'll wait. Thanks.

I love the fixes on the motion capture !! The players don't bend in weird ways anymore at all, it makes the gameplay feel so much better. We're getting closer to a truly realistic animation system. The body now seems more human, with better inertia. I don't know if there's still room for you for keep improving this animation system, but I hope it can keep being refined further, as I feel we're close to a perfect animation system. Congrats and thanks for this update

matservant,
I'm glad the fix is clearly visible ! :yes:
It's ChatGPT that spotted a referential error in my pelvis calculations when the player is running... ':D
The next step would be to allow Modders to create several versions of the same strike while bending, so the different torsions could look more realistic and smooth. Allow I'm not sure some Modders would want to get into that, as it'd have to be done manually, I guess.

Manu, thank you so much for introducing this new dynamic clay feature, it improves A LOT the experience of playing on clay! This game doesn't stop getting better and better. Right now, the only thing that I'd love seeing in the game is a dynamic net as well (when the ball hits the net, like top spin does). I don't know if this would be hard to be introduced to the game, but I have the right to dream! :lol:

Manu, thank you so much for the dynamic clay!!! :applause:
It’s truly amazing, and I’d go so far as to say it’s the best I’ve seen in a tennis game.
As a South American, this is an extremely important factor for the surface, and beyond that, it definitely greatly improves the experience. :dance:
