[Meet]

Laptop will still work. if no keypad, sorry, you just wont be able to spin or swing the ball...everything else works though.

hmmmm.........
will it be same during the final version?
hope not so.

I'm liking the physics engine a lot.

Maybe just increase the ball speed a little bit when its on the grass (will come with later versions i'm sure).

Had a zoom around the stadium and it all looks good.

Been trying to recreate the Sharne Warne to Gatting ball and i'm getting close!

Good job!

To active numpad on laptop, Press FN key + Scroll Lock, it activates numpad for me with keys 7,8,9,y,u,i,h,j,k. It might not be the same keys for all laptops i guess.

Hey, played quite a few overs. Spin bowling is highly addicting. Got bowled quite a lot of times( maybe because i am managing both the bowling and batting at a time).

I have a few doubts:
1) How do you ball no balls?
2) the ball doesnt seem to slow down at all after i play a stroke!

More to come

The helmet part and the collar part do not look up to the mark, may be modification of models can be employed.

Exactly. I lost count of how many times we asked for forgiveness over the sh*t graphics lol...

But I'll say it again...work is already under way on a complete graphics overhaul. You can mark my words right now (please do) that the FULL alpha release will be next-gen quality.

Out of curiosity, how does the no ball system work?

 

[mohit_dude10]

The Gameplay is very good, also the bowling action and defensive shots by batsman are realistic. Only one odd thing i find is after the batsman hits the ball it keeps going even if its not timed properly.

have anyone tried charging down the track?
