Juninho1059,
sorry, it's not possible to have more than 5 rounds per year.

[Juninho1059]

Alright, manuto, I accept 5 rounds in the Davis Cup. Could you help me how to activate this 5th round?

How many countries can I put in the main draw of the Davis Cup and in the qualifying draw?

And the other question, can I change the career time for World Tour players to play for more than 16 years?

Thanks for your answer.

a) Just follow the patterns you'll find in the Modding SDK's Tour.ini : topic60-33540.php =>
1) Add 1 round
2) Double the number of countries
3) Add players to have at least 2 players per country

b) There's no 16-year limit in TE4

Sorry, manuto, I couldn't find it.

This also worked for tennis elbow 2013

1) Add this to your Tour.ini, under [WT_Static] :
NbDavisCupRound = 4

So the start of your Tour.ini should look like this :

Code: Select all

[WT_Static]
Sorting      =   0
NbDavisCupRound =   4

For my WT Static in Tour.ATP1973 ini:

Code: Select all

[WT_Static]
MaxTournament   =   350
NbDavisCupRound =    5

to get the davis cup to work with the maximum rounds allotted for the game, does that look correct for the top of my ini or do I need the "Sorting" in between?

Also how do I allow more countries into the cup like to get the 53 teams of 1973? obviously would have to make changes for the certain countries if I can rather than pick the current ones but that's another quesiton for another day.

ny32986,
TE4 doesn't use MaxTournament, and you need "Sorting = 0" to be able to add tournaments to an ongoing career.

5 rounds = 32 teams in the main draw. You cannot have more.

I see, I'm still trying to gather down the differences of what works for TEM2 Vs TE2013 Vs TE4 (I probably would use the latter once I get a new cpu to handle the high end Steam games).

I wished at some point there can be a bump up on number of teams to be able to do the 50+ teams to try to get the accurate match of things besides having to substitute countries like Russia for USSR, Serbia for Yugoslavia & whatever country (Bahamas, Bermuda & 2 other countries) of the Carribean for the "Carribean/West Indies" team.

5 rounds = 32 teams in the main draw. You cannot have more.

Does this mean that you need 96 teams in total for a 5-round Davis Cup?

32 in the main draw
64 in the qualifiers, playing two rounds to get the 16 teams to play the losers of the first round of the main draw

Or is it possible to do it with just 32 teams in the qualifiers, playing one qualifying round?

holt77,
I don't know, I never tried and I don't guarantee it'll work...
