Sampras' Schedule on 1998 : http://www.atpworldtour.com/Tennis/Play ... 8&m=s&e=0# ; #1 & 21 tournaments including a bunch of low level ones ; that would not match what did SamPatch, and Sampras isn't the one playing the most tournaments in that era... :roll:

Yes, but i can't say that is normal to see watching Federer playing Acapulco or Nadal playing Winston salem.. i know what you mean but you can see by yourself that this is a little bit ugly

Ufiors, you can create new ATP500 or ATP250 tournament categories in the data/TourCategory.ini and add the line "BestPlayer = " in them (like in the challenger and futures categories): if the value is 10 for example, no player ranked higher than 10th will play in this category of tournament. Then mod the Tour.ini to change tournaments categories as you want. It makes lower tournaments draws more realistic (however, it depends of the era: the "Big four" never play in Memphis or Houston today, but in the 1990s most top players were american and US tournaments were more prestigious). Or, you can lower the "TopPresence" value in ATP 500 and 250 categories.

Manutoo: top players play a bit too much doubles, but they have unrealistic good results too. High ranked and good volleyers teams like Federer/Berdych or Sampras/Becker are almost unstoppable and win a lot of masters 1000 and grand slams (unless they are forbidden to play doubles by modding their "Singledouble" value).

Yes, i but i don't want they dont play no one of the 250s, i want only to create a realistic thing, Nadal can play 250 or 500, but on clay not indoor, you follow me?

Yes, their schedule has to be based only on singles, some doubles tournament when their form is not high... in this way the game is not realistic. The doubles players too are too strong in singles, Bob Bryan won the French Open in my game :sweat:

The Tour engine & Tour bases are identical, so it might be random (except if you Modded some stuff).

I agree, and I think they also play too much doubles. Federer is #1 rank in doubles by a long way (12,000 points. Bryan brothers have 8,000) in my game. This is not very realistic.

Also doubles players are always playing in singles (like Bryans, have rank of 40). And more annoyingly they always beat me! I don't understand how as they such low rally skills and physical stats? In my last match Bob Bryan somehow made 54 winners with only 27 points won at net. Where on earth are these other 27 winners coming from if not from their volleys?!
