Voley Drop Shot

Postby Gleck » 01 Nov 2021, 04:40

Hello everyone, I will try to be concise.

I wanted to know how the volley drop-shot is done because although I always see the machine doing it, every time I try it tells me that I am badly positioned and the ball always goes to the net. :?

Thank you.

Hello,

it's the hardest strike of the game. Try to practice it in Warm-Up mode till you can make a few. You need to be perfectly positioned to suceed.

Just stand at the net in warm-up mode and practice a lot ; there's no secret... :)

It will be a matter of practicing then.

By the way ... Is there a post of yours or something about your history in the world of videogames and how life led you to undertake such a challenge by creating this game by yourself?

It is that I am struck by how a single person can have their website, forum, create and perfect a game as important as this one. Really, all the admiration for you, Manu.

Sorry for the delay to answer you, I was sick (and still am a bit).

There's no page on the web that gives my whole biography, but you'll find a decent chunk about the games I have worked on here : https://www.mobygames.com/developer/she ... Id,221769/ .

And you'll find the rest here : https://store.steampowered.com/developer/ManaGames ... :)

And I started to work on the 1st TE when I was 17 years old.

Good that you are better!

And could you tell a little about your experience in tennis as a player? If you have not already published it somewhere.

From my heart, I hope that time gives you the opportunity to maximize your achievements in a project of a large company, beyond that for us you are already a legend!

And by the way, always humble answering every question on the forum.

I celebrate for all that you have done. :applause:

Thanks. :-)

I have been ranked 30/1 (in France) for 4 or 5 years in a row. This is a decent club level, but nothing extravagant... It just means I could play tennis (defend, attack, keep the ball in when needed, volley a bit, etc.). :blackeye:

Now, I don't have time for tennis anymore... :fear: (hopefully, it'll get better when the kids are a bit older)

It's in French but you should be able to find the correspondence : https://www.team-tennis.fr/classement/l ... ennis-pays .

30/1i n France ~= 3.0 in USA (they put 30/2 as well at 3.0, but there's a big gap between 30/1 & 30/2, so it's approximative :blackeye: ).
