This is such a good idea! I actually wanted to buy the full version of this game because I've seen some great videos of it on youtube, life-like looking courts and Federer's animations were so well done. Just like you Raz, Im not a big fan of offline mode either. I just wanna be able to use the animations online. Once they will be in the game, I'll buy it for sure.
It's just not fair that this game has all Nadal's animations ALREADY in the game and you dont need to download custom animations for him because they are all already in the game. Im the biggest Federer fan and I'd love to see m4n4c0r's fed forehand animation in game, as well as Lucian86's fed backhand which is simply the greatest. I think there are more Federer fans out there than Nadal. Im supporting Raz's idea 100%.
. Can you please do something about it so we can use custom animations online? for me its no fun playing offline, and I really want to be able to use them online so I can enjoy this game much more. A solution would be to gather up the greatest animations made by the TE team and implement them into the next version, or perhaps you could make something like: If I'm using a custom animation that my opponent doesn't have and im the host, then before the match starts the opponent downloads the animation from my PC so he can see it in game so we there wouldnt be any desynchs. Can you please do this?! there are SO MANY great animations that im dying to try out online.
