Hello,

in addition of the features listed in this topic topic32-3146.php (ie: 3D courts & a few other new outfit stuff), TE2011 will have nothing new, except 1 important new gameplay mechanism : the tiredness...
The main goal is to eliminate one of the last few very unrealistic game situations, where a player can endlessly run at full speed left & right without never getting tired. So mainly, this will handle the tiredness over a few points. It'll have also the tiredness over the match, but this one should be secondary...
The tiredness will be optional, so it'll be still possible to play match like in original TE2009.

Is there any chance that TE2011 incorporates the new ranking system for ATP and a new interface update, it is starting to get a little old!

[manutoo]

Oooups, I forgot ; of course TE2011 will have the new tour categories & point system.

About the menus, they won't change...

[Imanno]

manu can u please make the player trhrow the racket when anyone push down ?

[adner]

About the menus, they won't change...

Oh why? I guess it wouldn't cost that much compared with 3d graphics and it might make TE look a bit more proffesional.

[manutoo]

adner, a couple stats about the menu, there are :
- more than 200 menus & submenu parts
- more than 200 icons, background, and other graphical elements

So doing a significant design change in the menus would cost a lot more time & $$$ than adding a couple of 3D Stadiums...
Also, styled "modern" menus would likely require a lot of MB of assets. And I don't want the game to be too big to download...

Eh? Where are they hidden then? o.o I could live without animated buttons - it's enough to highlight them once the mouse pointer is over them.

If you want you can message me by PM and tell me how exactly does it work. I might try to do something myself during the holidays if you would accept my vision.

Hi
Im sorry i never seen this topic, Why don't you make your own 3d courts yourself in bonzai 3d and just export them into autodesk yourself, it's cheaper.

[manutoo]

solarisaint1, it might be cheaper, but it'd take me way more long time to do for a less good looking result ; so I rather pay someone who's good at 3D creation & 2D texture, and spend my time on other things I'm good at...

[solarisaint1]

HI
i have to give you credit, you are great at making them move.
Did you ever consider having a mesh 3d map and you leave the courts blank and we can fill in .
Then Te will be the first game ever, were you make your own courts, make your own camera, and make your own sound,
Their be no reason to play any other game or is that a risk.

[manutoo]

solarisaint1, it'll be easy to modify the court texture. It'll be even possible to add your own .3ds court, although, it won't be easy...

[Tennischampion]

i wud like to see these features:
1)i wud like to see people clapping in next version .please try that if its possible.it was there in te06 but not in te09
yeah tiredness is great modification,it gives more realism to the game.tiredness shud be increasing as time increases.
2)i think court camera view should be a little modified.i mean the camera cant show the player when he runs at the corner of the court.so i do errors becos i dont know where my player position is....its difficult to hit powerful shots when u cant see ur player position.so try to keep one more camera mode which completely shows whole court

[PattySchnyder]

I'll say it again more strike animations please!
