Hello, as you know I make great outfits, but I really want to learn how to make great courts. I know how to make the court picture, but I don't know how to create the court ini. I know only that I should first go to DevMode = 1, then go to the game, start a match, then I should pause the game and to change the camera angle. But I don't know how to change the camera angle. I try to push the buttons (1,2,3...8) and then (Left Shift, Alt...Control), but it simply doesn't work! See!!!

Guys, read the how to mod doc, its clearly explained.

El tigre Rafa, after you turned on DevMode, open the game, start an exhibition, and without pausing the game adjust the camera angle (using 1,2,4,5,7,8, +, -). When you get the camera that you want, press 9, pause the game, and open your Tennis.ini., copy the camera section (last part of tennis.ini), close the game, turn DevMode off and save, open the court.ini of your court, and paste the camera settings that you copied from the tennis.ini, replacing the ones that already are in the court.ini., save, and ready!!

Good luck!

Sorry, i wanted to say @federerFilip, no El tigre Rafa

Ok, let start from zero:

1) Create a Data/CustomCourt01 folder, paste inside the photo and paste a .ini (you can extract it with Qped from pak1, or simply copy another .ini of an existent court, better if it is a .ini of the same type of surface: hard, gras...). Rename both files as "court"

2) Open the court.ini and Delete the camera section from the court.ini. Save.

3) Go to tennis.ini and turn on DevMode. Save.

4) Open the game, go to Exhibition and MOVE the camera using the bloq numbers. Be sure that tha "bloq num" is on

5) When you get the camera, press 9 few times (that will save your camera settings inside the tennis.ini)

6) Pause the game.

7) Open Tennis.ini, look for camera section and copy all the settings

[Camera]
Focal = 1
Angle = -9.21317
Custom = 1
CustomFocal = 0.984406
Dist = 3184
Height = 1414
Translation = 0
ForceSunInBack = 0 // 1 => Force Sun To Go in Back of Camera
Aperture = 0
Elevation = 1
Mode = 0
Zoom = 2
ZoomStart = 0
AspectRatio = 1.6
FollowMode = 0

8) Turn off DevMode and save tennis.ini

9) Close the game.

10) Open court.ini and paste Camera Settings. Save court.ini

11) start the game

If you follow this steps, you shouldn't have any problem. Anyway i'm not very experienced, so i can't say more. At least this way works for me!

[FedererFilip]

I am very thankful that you want to help me, now I am gonna follow this steps and I'll hope it's gonna work

[FedererFilip]

One more question does it matter if you have a modded or an unmodded game?

[ELTXETXU]

I don't know, i started to create courts few weeks ago... but if you want to be sure, do it in an unmodded game. Once you create the court and the .ini, just copy and paste the files where you want (in your modded game)

Btw, you can have 2 or 3 or 4 installations of TE in one computer (one with sams patch, one unmodded, and one with ITST for ex)

[FedererFilip]

It doesn't work, I made this court, but I don't have the court.ini. Can someone make this court?

FedererFilip,
You can create courts on modded or unmodded game, it's easier in an unmodded game, btw, the instructions ELTXETXU posted, are in HTM, so please check it

[FedererFilip]

I check it, but it just doesn't work.
