Update 1.14 + Practice Table Available Now

[Ripstone]

Hi everyone,

Update 1.14 is available now. Full details below:

- New game mode added - Practice Table is now available in-game. When using the practice table, you can respot the white ball anywhere and retake shots. This addition was a direct response to your feedback, so thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us.

- Online VS matches now use Pro+ Aiming Aid

- Tournament calendar update. The 'Winter Open' added to run in December during the World Snooker break for the holidays with brand new exclusive reward pack

- Fixed a bug affecting the break off in Six Red matches

- Commentary improvements, including a fix for a bug affecting plants

- Small improvements to side spin that have made a positive impact. We have adjusted the ball/ball friction properties, which has an impact on the amount of push out to the side that the cueball will have. After a period of closed testing and player feedback, this was found to be the best change to implement.

- General bug fixes, crash fixes and improvements

Last week we shared more details about Update 1.14 which you can read here. The content of this update was based upon community feedback and we are really excited to share the Practice Table and other changes with you.

Thanks for your ongoing support.

Nice thanks will try it out tonight. Not sure you mean the side spin is completely fixed though?

[Ioannis Sfairopoulos]

Online match aim bad very very bad

[VirtuaTyKing]

Thank you so much it's not totally 100% but it's a great improvement. You have made my day.

Its good. Is it me or is the power bar further to the left of the screen?

Seems a fairly good update, although the AI is still avoiding balls touching that it lines itself up for thgen chooses to play a ball in baulk. And ironic how the commentry bug, which now doesnt mention plants, goes against the AI whereby the AI doesnt notice a plant being on, again, kind of relates to it having cold feet over balls that are either close to each other or indeed touching.

Certainly greatly reduced the false effect of side on straight shots, even makes the AI build a break properly now

Is it me or does the table have new markings on it now as the frame progresses, new dark line marks?

And can someone else tell me that my thoughts that Higgins now looks like the real John Higgins are not just a placebo effect? :-)

I am about to test Snooker 19 from within a VMWare VM, whereby I will pause the game at the beginning of an AI break after it pots the first Red, and save the VM.

Then back the VM up.

Then, test the saved "frozen" game mulitple times and see if the AI plays out a random break each time i.e. will it think about its shots as it goes along, or does it already have the logic for each consecutive shot scripted in terms of what it initially sees the pattern of balls as on the table before it starts its break.

Either way............whichever it works out to be, its never gonna be "scripted" in the normal sense of the term, as each table layout of balls will be 100% unique to start with, but I would love to see the outcome be different each time. In fact I am rather excited...... (little wonder the Wife didnt enjoy the honeymoon....).

I cannot wait to see if the AI shot choices change on each VM start attempt because as soon as it does that, fingers crossed, it will prove it really is weighing things up and adding some randomness to the choice of shot it chooses to play each time.

How did the testing go. Any feedback.

EDIT: Never mind, I found the other thread you created. Great research. Thank you.

Disappointed that tour championship still doesn’t have the correct frames.

Which length of event did you choose? The number of frames is determined by whether you selected Short, Medium or Long.

After the cue ball hit the library, the position could not be determined,Auxiliary lines are extremely difficult
Can it be improved into Like the 《WSC Real World Snooker Championship 09》 The same
