thanks to lokiare for uploading to his site for re-distribution

[Mraellis]

Hmm i will try since the game looks good but it looks terrible with that table so i willn't be playing it much till you update that next week.

Good work though

Also when's the contest deadline seeing as its been rushed?

#1. Go to the poll thread.
#2. Save the image of the table you like.
#3. convert and rename it to PoolTable.png
#4. Overwrite the file in the right spot within the game's folder structure.
#5. Enjoy

I'll probably try that considering that default one is ugly

[slicer4ever]

hey everone, yes i'm sorry i didn't swap out the current one, but it had come down to the last few minutes of the competition and i still had much to do that i had to say screw it and release it as is to get it out for the competition

as NeilR said simple replace the PoolTable.png image with the one you liked, they should all be compatible

thecobra: it's completly playable at this point, but it is an earlyier release than i'd prefer

coolj, i was hoping to get more gametypes in before i released, but as i have mentioned i was in a major rush, i'll try and add as many gametypes as i can before my next release, also does it come even remotly to your standards?

and finally mraellis, the deadline was may 31st, at midnight

[alongcametheother]

im gonna have fun with this thx
can you replace the balls as easily as the table?
not askin for more ball skins just wonderin what i could do with it myself
ill be watchin for the next release!

[slicer4ever]

yes, simple make sure they are kept to the same dimension's as the original image, if you don't.....when they are displayed on the psp, you may get some weird results=-)

[Playboy21]

Nice one slicer4ever.Glad you fixed the bug.

[slicer4ever]

yea took me a while to finally figure out the prob but its all good now=-)

[nick48]

Thanks!

[NeilR]

I played a few rounds this afternoon and I wanted to stop by and say that it works really well. The AI seems coherent and the gameplay is sound; good job.

[omracer]

i've made PIC1.PNG & a ICON0.PNG for the eboot.

Just put the folder in PSP/GAME

If you advanced in the PSP Scene download both images in the thread & add them using pbp unpacker or something else


If you want the icon & Background added for you Download from Media Fire:

[NeilR]

Here's another alternate eboot with the images I put in (did it really quick). It's just the turquoise table for the PIC1 and the game logo resized as the ICON0.

[slicer4ever]

thanks very much, to the both of you, i'm switching out the eboot with NeilR's, since it does look better, omracer, thank you also for creating one with an eboot icon, however as i said NeilR's is better, and i'm switching out the table now that i have more time, i'll re-upload, and take new pic's with the updates, i'll also try and get a vid up

also NeilR, thanks for the feedback=-)

[ifiwere1337]

omg, this looks really promising, havent been able to check what table won the poll, and then i saw it was mine, i was hoping for the turquoise one, but oh well

[slicer4ever]

as was i, but i think it was mostly because it was submitted after many had voted already=-(, either way when i get out the release i was hoping to be my first release, it'll be included as a selectable table

[halokilla77]

sliver4ever, awesome game man...love it! Do you plan on implementing the use of English down the road? No rush, just asking and thanks for sharing the game with us!

[slicer4ever]

what do you mean by implementing the use of english?

[halokilla77]

what I mean if I want to back spin, forward spin, etc...unless the feature is there now and I just haven't fount it.

What about adding our own custom music in the background? I know I'm asking for alot...just curious!

[slicer4ever]

custom music was the last feature i was attempting to get into the game, however a directory reading bug occured so i had to scratch it at the last min and release as is, i'm not exactly certain why u called it english, but back spin, and forward spin, physics is something that i'll have to look into the physics of before i can implement it, but i'll do my best to try

[halokilla77]

awesome, like I said no rush man the game plays very nice! This is definitely staying at the top of my xmb Game list.

"English" is used to control the cue ball.Would be cool if you implement it like this:



By pressing Select or something you can choose where you want the spin,with the point.

Also,could you add,cue elevation,like in this image:

I ended up doing that but it seems I've gotta update now anyway

Ah no wonder you had to rush it out quick then lol. Bloody good work though.

[slicer4ever]

thanks all, coolj, i'll see what i can do on that "english", however i don't think it well be apart of the next release, but after the next release, which should contain many of the features i had hoped for, i'll attempt to add in "english" as best as i can=-)

[halokilla77]

online mulitplayer would be the ultimate. can wait to see what new features you have in store for us.

[slicer4ever]

online multiplayer would be amazing, however having one psp, does pertain to a problem with testing out ad-hoc and online capability's=-(, theirs many game's i'd love to make multiplayer, if only i had the second psp to test with

tru, can you imagine online multi with leaderboards, win/lose records...if I had a third extra PSP I'd donate it so you can make it happen.

[ifiwere1337]

to anyone wanting to change the table, you will want to check out the original thread, but do not just copy the picture there, find the original post of it and use the download link, at least on mine i have a download link, and it has a better quality version of it, i am saying this because a few of my friends have had troubles with that, and that is because the preview pics are from photobucket, and photobucket automatically makes them into jpegs
