New Features :
- Gameplay : you can now release your button(s) slightly before striking the ball on your serve ; that will allow you to reach the net slightly more easily ; to use that feature, release the pressed button(s), then release the direction (if needed) and then push forward (+ left/right if needed) ; it also works for walking backward, but in that case, it's just very little bit effective
- Stats : average rally length has been added to the match stat screen
- Menu : added a "Recordings" screen, allowing you to replay previously recorded matches (to record match : set Recordings to "Real-Time" ; and if it's lagging, then set it to "Buffered")
- Recordings : resumed matches can now be recorded
- Camera : 3rd Person Cam has a now a real unzoom slider
- Modding : new way to install Mods, which make easier installing, managing & uninstalling, especially when having several Mods (more info here : topic29-11960.php)
- Modding : it's now possible to load different nets according to the court (more info here : topic29-11961.php )

- Modding : you can now have the sun parameters in the Court.ini ; check Court07's .ini to see how it's done
Changes :
- Gameplay : safe shot at net now produces a slightly slower, longer & higher ball than before, usually making it much easier to strike a passing-shot out of it

- World Tour : the Off-Time was checked 1 week late for the Country Cup participation
- World Tour : if your partner was on off-time and playing only with your player but had a better ranking than your player, then your team couldn't enter any doubles draw
