Spectator Applause Bug

[zappingol]

Hello Manu, for some time now I have noticed that on any court that I play the applause from the public is heard but the animation to applaud is not seen, I don't know if it is normal but I think that a few months ago said animation was seen

Hello,

I just checked and it's working fine.

Note : if you play with the 2D Background, then there's no 3D crowd, everything in the background is a static image. Check Settings -> Video -> Advanced -> 2D Background.

I have many videos and I am with the XKT mod and markers and the same thing happens to me in all the games

There are 2 possibilities :
- the Mod adds "CrowdAnimation = 0" to [3dEngine] in an .ini (which disables the applauding)
- the Mod creates a silent crash, which prevents the crowds to be correctly initialized

If you want, you can send me a Bug Report the next time it happens, but there's a low chance I'll find the issue because the log is saturated with issues with the XKT Mod, making it very difficult to find anything... (HowTo => https://www.managames.com/Forum/topic5-31732.php )

Thank you very much Manu, it was fixed by changing to 1 Crowdanimation. By the way, do you know the Keymailer website to promote games with content creators?

[ManuTOO]

I have very low trust in Keymailer. From other devs' comments, it's mostly a way to get free games for some gamers.

It's likely better to manually contact the few YouTubers that would cover an Indie tennis game and have a decent number of views per video.

[zappingol]

But in Keymailer now the developer chooses who to give the key to, in addition the streamers have to select the % coverage of the game, being 100% if they are going to give coverage. Imagine that a streamer with more than 100,000 followers requests you by keymailer and that he plays sports games and applies that he will give coverage 100% probability, since the developer decides whether to give the key or not

Ok, I'll try to check it again when TE4 will be ready for marketing. :-)

Note : sorry for the delay to answer, the last 2 weeks have been complicated... >_<
