The ability to search by user or country would be handy
Yeah the long list will be unwieldy eventually.

The fact the message when you download a player mentions adding them as a free agent means I hope there's options to make player trades between users rather than them both keeping the player - it'd be nice if there was a section like a marketplace for players that have been used in the career mode.

Not in this version, but a great idea!

how much should i keep the resolution
i tried many resultions like 800x600, 500x500
but still its lagging
Well as low as possible.

width=640
height=480
characters=0 ; face texture quality 0=low 1=medium 2=high
vsync=0 ; 0=off 1=on

^try that in your config.ini

At this point I would say you're too far short of the system requirements, which would only get higher with the main game. Start saving up to buy a new PC.

It says I'm the original creator of Bruce Willis and I haven't edited him at all :lol:

Hey Ross,
Why not give us a video tutorial for the cricket academy? Maybe you can pick a photo and record yourself creating a player using that photo. Along the way you can give your opinions/suggestions/experiences on the various creating options in the game, e.g. when to use what slider or, the impact of some sliders etc.

First of all, couldn't thank Ross & the whole Big Ant team enough for giving us the awesome editor...hopefully it's sign of bigger & better things to come.:clap

Few things i noticed:

1. no dark/black color in palette while trying to assign eye color.
it ends at brown. There should be different hues of dark color as well,
which are very common across different ethnicity.

2. while trying to create a player, a default name comes up which can be edited.
but the role is every time "All-rounder" which is not editable.
not sure it is a bug or not.. needs to be editable so that specialist roles can
be assigned to a particular player.

That's my two cents(literally :D) for now. Will try and suggest more

I just noticed hyphens aren't supported in the player names (numbers are amusingly enough), is that an easy change? Likewise, shouldn't the shirt name auto update to the last name if it hasn't been changed as you're going down (or perhaps an auto suggest button for the shirt name that cycles between Initial+Lastname, Lastname, Firstname+Initial, etc)

Also, about the online name validator - shouldn't these be censored, or is it just assumed that there's too many Harshit's and Scunthorpe's in the world?

Also, minor text clipping issue in the attached.

Also, despite the players wearing a coloured kit in the editor the shirt name does not appear on the back, which seems to make the shirt name a bit pointless. In Fifa the shirt name would update as soon as it was entered.

Ross,
Is it possible to add zoom in and zoom out feature as well when creating a model? Sometimes its pretty hard to see the change in sliders.

couldn't agree more mate, was about to post this when i chanced upon this suggestion... once Shirt name & jersey number have been given by us, we should be able to see it when we rotate the figure to see its back side. If original shirt name is too lengthy, perhaps nick-name could be placed over there as a demo.
