Stroke editor

[ahmed]

hey guys, its me again..lol yea i know.. too many questions.. well dont blame me.. im just a newbie :P .. anyway i just downloaded sriram's stroke editor . after fooling around with it for a while i finally figured out how to modify strokes. but now some of the strokes r exact replica of what i was hoping for. but others r way too messed up. i mean my square drive somehow ends up near the long leg ..lol and the straight drive is a bit messed up as well. the best one so far is the ondrive .. anyway.. my question is.. the controls in sriram's stroke editor... r they based on a left hand batsman ? or a right hand batsman ? Thanks for ur help folks

oh and 1 more thing. the file "sdrive.saf" represents the straight drive right??? i m just a bit confused. cause in the stroke editor when i open this file. it seems like the direction is more towards the cover than straight down the ground between mid on and mid off

hey....just wondering how u actually got it working :blink:

do u hav windows 2000 or xp or sumthing else?

can u explain how u got it working?

Sure. i got windows2000 . all u have to do is use winzip to open the exe file. then choose the folder where all the saf files r. look under data/captures/batsman/shots . there should be 36 strokes i think ( well thats how many i got ) . just make sure u backup the shots folder before fooling around with it.

Phew.. finally after hours of trial and errors i got it to work . So far i have increased the power by about 20% ( only for perfectly timed shots ) and increased the range of ondrives and backfoot straight drive. But i m still having some trouble adding the reverse sweep shot. any tips ? Oh and as a right hander, i also cant seem to play the power sweep shot ( that goes for 6 or $ )... Some how i can play this shot pretty well as a left hander . ne tips ?
