I know that this pivot technique is known, but I can't recall having seen many professionals on TV actually use it. I find it hard to tell from watching a video if someone is using pivot english (in German 'Kreuzen') or not, but I know for sure this guy does it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnD0O...

There's one exception in the foul and miss rule:

"...the referee shall call FOUL AND A MISS, unless:
(i) any player needed penalty points before, or as a result of, the stroke being played"

Could it be that this was the case?

Cute

But I do SUGGEST to keep track of the mouse position AFTER the backstroke limit has been reached. When moving further than the backstroke limit, the cue will simply rest at that limit, while the mouse can still be moved further away. When moving the mouse forwards, the cue should only start moving ...

I believe it's done based on the games interpretation of the player's skill.

Yes, that's a known issue.
Not sure when it will be fixed though.

Yes, that's a nice find. Can't wait to see this fixed

In straight rail billiards the longest run is above 3000.

Are you sure one of the balls hit a rail after contact?

When the cueball is anywhere near a ball or a rail the game lifts the cue and thus adds follow. It just raised the butt in old versions. ..If I wanted to play a tad of draw I just had to press E, pull my mouse back a bit and shoot. If I do that now I might end up with a follow through instead of a ...

I don't get that you need to center the tip.
If it's off center that should be marginal.
Or are you talking about the new standard distance aiming?
What's your setting in Settings -> Camera -> Aiming?
If it's anything other than Last Distance, try that.

Haha.. shows you are German. Anyone else would ask for it as a feature instead of complaining ;-)

Where are the COs stuck, do you have examples?

I assume this happened when playing a career. The ghost ball is on by default in the Pro Tour and Hustler Career easy settings. If you turn it off, it's turned back on every time a new match is started. To get rid of it you could try normal mode, if that's not too tough. Regards the skipped shots in...

抱歉我的英语不行无法用英语表达完整自己的意思，只好用中文了。 我觉得这是个问题，VP4缺少一种“随机失误”机制，也就是说，如果不打滑杆，没有旋转，那么不管力度如何，只要瞄准都可以进球。这实际上是和现实不符的。 现实中，有可能用大力度会造成失误，这是一个随机的事件。就是用同一种杆法，同样的力度，同样的瞄准，人这种生物也不可能精确地重现一样的效果。 那么这个现象如何在游戏里体现？很难完美地实现，但是有一个游戏加入了一个功能能尽可能地贴近现实，至少可以作为例子来借鉴。 这个游戏叫Cue Online，韩国公司开发的一款网络台球游戏。这个游戏加入了一种“属性”的机制，每个人有5项属性，每种属性影响一...

I totally agree

Unlikely it's going to happen, even if you write it in all capitals.
This has been suggested before by the testers.
Although.. maybe if EVERYONE wants it ;-)

I believe that's the same rule Redphex was referring too.

Funny how it's always been there and nobody noticed.
This will be fixed, probably with the next patch.

Almost.
Just that not all pool tables use the same green either.
Hard Times default looks like the green in settings.
If you try for example Hawg Pen with both, default and green you'll see a difference too.

There was a (slight) change of the default color with the first patch too though.

I don't see this as a bug but the option to change the color slightly.
If you don't like the default Snooker green, choose 'green' in table cloths and you may like that one better.

Would you rather elminate the option to choose?

Does that mean you are only playing one Pro Tour career? Just Snooker, nothing else?

ScratchShark wrote:Oh, another glitch I'm afraid. I can't use Ctrl-A to set the view of the opposing player like I always did in VP3.

Yes, that's a known issue and being worked on.

There is a bug in stats. Under certain circumstances they get cleared out.
It will be fixed with the next patch.

It's not very common and if at all only happens to people playing multiple careers.
Is that the case for you?

So I decided to start off very easy-going, using a ghost ball ( I feel almost ashamed to admit it ). Guess what? The ghost ball seems to be inaccurate at times. I really hit the ghost ball full in the face and I still manage to miss pots! Can there be a bug? Ghost ball is more a hint than an accura...

There is an issue with some Intel drivers. On my Samsung ultrabook with HD 3000 I have texture issues in tournaments maps, but nothing as bad. I'd try a different driver. The Macbook itself should work with VP4. On my 2007 Macbook Pro with NVidia chip VP4 runs perfectly smooth on the Windows partiti...
