-Outdated.

Build 84, April 22nd:

Changes :
- Gameplay : service strike spot normalized between the different kinds of serve
- Gameplay : less net clips while volleying
- Gameplay : slightly raised speed bonus for shoulder height acceleration
- Gameplay : best possible drop shot is a tiny bit longer
- Gameplay : it's now harder to do a dropshot on a raising ball
- Gameplay : short slice is more difficult ; ie: you lose more precision while standing in the Danger Zone, and do a longer slice if you don't center the ball correctly
- Online : all AutoPos settings allowed in Free Mode, thus the AutoPos setting is now used in the Skill CRC calculation (even in other modes)

Bug Fixes :
- AI : the CPU was going too close of the net in volley vs volley fights
ManuTOO

maybe the first point will fix some desynch issues on serves (?)

second point , means we can play with low autopos, but this will be a client side choice, not server side when creating an online game. Thus as it's included in the skill CRC calculation, it also means the pro's CRC will change depending wich autopos setting is selected (this value should be fixed in ITST patch if possible). So ITST has to determine wich autopos type has to be used and then update the new chars CRC.

I think I screwed it up. I downloaded a new update the game itself said was available, and now if i want to start the game it sais "Missing, wrong version or corrupted files, please reinstal" what should I do?

You must install TE with new build, then you must copy sam patch (without pak 1, pak 2 , build and buildmac in all subfolders) and itst patch 1.02 (without pak 2 , build and buildmac in subfolders)
When the new patch comes, we can do the steps normally( 1. Install last build 2. Copy sam patch 3. Copy new itst patch).At this moment we must copy the patch without this files and the game works.

I just updated the ITST patch to Ver 1.03 and updated instructions as well. We need one more step to be performed.

This is just a quick fix to make installation a bit easier. The Official ITST patch that will be one all inclusive patch is still in the works.

[Elias]

Cool. why is there again .pak files in the patch though ?
I thought Manutoo said to never copy .pak files from mods so
those files should not been included in the archive, am i wrong ?

[djarvik]

These are not from mods, rather from newest version of TE.

I placed them there so people don't have to delete them from Sams patch and replace them with their own etc....

Theoretically, all one needs is:

- Latest TE
- Sams patch without build.txt, builmac.txt, pack01 and pack02.
- ITST profile and miscsprite folder in data (ball shadow)


All I did is eliminated a few steps

[Elias]

Ok , also i don't know but it seems several chars are fixed with low autopos, and some in average autopos, i can change it but if i reload the char, it's coming back in average for some chars, so it may come from the patch.

regarding the CRC's it means we have to play with low autopos, so they may be all fixed in low autopos in the patch i think.

[djarvik]

Yes, the players Roster needs to be readjusted a bit. I am doing it over the weekend. I will then save each player with the correct auto positioning so the CRC values load correctly.


I still need some feedback where to adjust some players in DESPERATE need of adjusting.

Please let me know here guys:

This is an "on going" project, so consider everything below as "BETA VERSION". Should anything not work as described - let me know.


What you need:

1. A Full Version of Tennis Elbow 2011
Download here:
http://www.managames.com/Forum/topic15-5863.php
(you must download the full version, not the update patch!)

2. Sam's Pro ATP Patch
Download here:
http://www.managames.com/Forum/topic29-5363.php

3. ITST Patch with players (Version 1.03 4/28/2012)
Download here:
http://www.photoaday.net/ITST/ITSTPatchV103.rar


Instructions:

1. Install the latest version of the game by following the link above.

2. Download Sam's patch and place all of its contains in your Tennis Elbow main folder. When the system asks if you want to overwrite certain files and folders - say yes.

3. Go to "Menu" folder in your Tennis Elbow 2011 Folder and delete both: build.txt and buildmac.txt files.

4. Download ITST Patch and place all of its contains in your Tennis Elbow main folder. Launch the game, go to Misc Options, turn "on"Advanced Options. This should add a smiley face icon to the right menu in the game. Click on it and select: Create New Profile. Type in the name: ITST (all uppercase). On a previous screen turn "on" Select on start up. You are done!

Is it the folder named ITSTPatchV103 that you copy or the 2 folders inside that named Data and Profiles?
Do you overwrite the files when asked?

Okay thanks. At what point do I enter my registration key? Part 4 says to launch the game but I haven't registered it as a full version yet, does that matter?
I get an error when I try to launch the game. "Missing, Wrong Version, or Corrupted Data Files. Please re-install the game."

I have reinstalled it once already.

Well unfortunately i'm not sure, well i don't think you can mod the demo..

As for the key, you won't have to enter it anywhere, when you register, you receive a key file (.txt) in your maiblox, and you just have to put this file in the root folder of the game to get it registred.

I get an error when I try to launch the game. "Missing, Wrong Version, or Corrupted Data Files. Please re-install the game."

I have reinstalled it THREEE times already.

I've done the steps 1-4 in order..

Well,

IN the last ITST patch, Djarvik added the .pak files from the last TE build, to simplify things for people, copying over Sam patch outdated .pak files.
but Sam patch also comes with pak* files in datanew, datavis, datawimbly folders, wich i think should be deleted (i don't have pak files in my running TE in those folders, only in the Data folder), maybe your issue come from this i don't know.

What is advised more generally when modding TE is to never copy over any .pak , build.txt, buildmac.txt files !

i recommend you to :

browse your sam patch folder, then delete from it, any .pak files from any folder (data, datanew, datavis, datawimbly), that is generally, pak01.pak & pak02.pak. Also delete build.txt & buildmac.txt files from the menu folder. Once this is done, you have a fresh "harmless" sam patch you should keep in your hard disk to apply when needed.

install a fresh TE, copy over the 'cleaned' sam patch.

After this, apply ITST patch.
If you apply ITST 1.03 after cleansing your Sam patch by removing the outdated files like i pointed, you don't have then to copy the .pak files from ITST patch.

(you still can copy over if you want because those are anyway the same .pak files as Djarvik included the last ones, but this will be wrong when the next TE update comes).

Put your key.txt in the root folder of the game.
After doing this your game should start properly.
When ingame, create a profile named ITST.
Exit the game
Re-enter the game, and the ITST profile should be loaded with all chars.

Do you can now? It is strange, if you follow all the steps you can easy do it.
