little improovments for snooker and pool that make the game perfect

[henzn]

hey, i like the game its great but there should be some little changes that would make the game perfect:

First of all: sometimes its almost impossible play, the game ignores my keyboard inputs. it takes minutes to place the cue ball on the table.

There should be more light in the corner pockets. when playing from the short rail the pockets on the opposite side are too dark

When the cue ball is very close to to the short rail, the cue is very upright. In this case its almost impossible to see the pockets on the opposite side. Is it possible to to hide the transparent bar with the logo on top of the screen for those shots?

When doing a shot with the cue upright, the center of view moves to the left side. So its impossible to aim over the cue. Its always necessary to aim over the cue, so at the moment i always miss every shot with cue upright.

When doing a shot with effet the cue ball receiving a strange angle. For example: doing a shot with left effet causing the cue ball going to the right. Thats not the way playing in real. Imagine aiming over the cue hitting the cue ball in the center. To give some effet move the cue parallel out of the center. The angle of the cue is stil the same, the cue ball gets the same direction. I can show that in real, if you dont believe ;-)

There should be a redo function in free practice mode. So it would be possible to practice difficult situations again and again. It would be cool to save the table as it is to practice later.

What about having some minigame? Think about doing a shot and the goal is to make a point and leave the cueball in a defined area. Or maybe practice some situationions out of snooker world champion matches? What about having the DNA of Ronnie O'Sullivan for example...

Can you please bring Carambol into the game? Ive played a long time years ago and in my opinion its even harder than snooker, but a great way to improove skills.

Dont get me wrong. I really love the game, with some little changes it would become 50% better.

Sorry for my bad english...

Hi, to help us look into the freeze / delay issues with your keyboard actions can you please take the following steps. This will give us a better insight into what is happening, specifically, when these delays occur:

Step 1:
Run Pure Pool. Running in windowed mode will help with timing.

Step 2:
Open up the Task Manager and go to the Processes tab.

Step 3:
Play Pure Pool until the game locks (delays occur).

Step 4:
While the game has locked right click on Pure Pool in the task manager and select Create Dump File. (It's important that we get the timing right here as the crash dump tells us what Pure Pool is doing at the time of the lock, so we need to get it while it is locked not before or after.)

Step 5:
Once the crash dump has been created windows will tell you where on your PC the file has been created. Go to there and locate the file PurePool.DMP.

Step 6:
If you can apply a zip compression on the file so that it can be uploaded quicker.

Step 7:
Go to https://www.wetransfer.com/ in your Internet browser of choice.
Select 'take me to free'.
Add the PurePool.DMP.
Email the file to: [e-mail].
Your email is whatever you use for your email.
Start the transfer, once this is complete we will receive the file and we'll be able to have a look and see if we can diagnose what is causing this problem.

Thanks

VooFoo

cool, thanks for the great support. I will send you the file...

any news about the file i uploaded?

now i own a 4K res monitor, now its not playable at all. It takes longer than 1 minute to place the ball on the table and more than one minute to give some effet. Why is a bigger resolution causing delays on keyboard input? I can play GTA5 without any problems...Its impossible for me to play now, hope you can find a solution.
