Re: Gostball in career mode

As far as I know there's no way to get rid of the ghostball and tracking lines on the lowest difficulty setting in Career mode. If pressing G won't help, then try the next difficulty level; that will sort it.

Re: Offline mode question

Btw if you want all the tables to become available in Quick Play mode without bothering to finish Career first, use this:

I also have this problem, but I have been to shy to mention it. It is, however, even worse for me because i dont see the pockets on either side. picture: http://img259.imageshack.us/my.php?image=vp3ss2.jpg The reason why Romario sees the top pockets and you don't is because you play with "See ...

Can`t play unless i fix this annoying bug. Hi lc. It's not a bug; with the latest version you always get tracking lines and ghostball in Career mode on Easy difficulty, it's for absolute beginners. You just need to increase the difficulty to Medium or higher, then all aiming aids are off. Need to p...

Well I saw it more than once. It's harder but not because of the nap. The nap has no impact shooting from baulk to black. Yeah more than once but rarely I'm sure, only in that case when you can't leave something clear for the opponent if you miss; because chances are that you do miss by choosing to...

But exactly the same goes also for all vp3-games; If you got cueball on the top cushion (well, not ON THE TOP OF IT lol, ya know what I mean :D ), and object ball on the other end of the table, you can pot it in, no matter is the game snooker or pool. True but I know I can pot that blue on a pool t...

Perfectly said. Good argument, the easiest way to explain to people who maybe don't play real pool a lot.


As for tournaments I just think we need a new game, this is 8 years old; not a lot of players around nowadays, most probably find it boring and repetitive after such a long time.

Yes that looks good, graphics are a bit more similar to those screenshots of the Xbox version of Vp3Gold... although I thought you would be focusing on that nowadays, the PC version. Not the point of this thread but is the game still in plan, any news?

Taking your example with the white frozen at rail, you ALREADY fked up position. That's what I meant where repairing is easier. If you took the right shot before, you weren't stuck at the cushion. Same with VP3 and IRL. But I don't build my break that way! Unless I floss up... Maybe you try not to ...

That's simply wrong. It's not the table that makes the difference between a right or a wrong shot. Of course it's also the table, unless you mean something else by right/wrong. It's right when it's the optimal choice to put yourself in advantage, either by continuing the break or snookering opponen...

It's always your choice if you roll or if you shoot so you can play both games in a realistic way or not. Of course, I never said you can't; it's your choice. I just said vp3 snooker forces you not to play in a realistic way since you have many other easy options which don't exist irl. So that choi...

You are right, but you underestimate the value of position in snooker I'm pretty sure I don't underestimate it since every 70+ break here is achieved with unrealistic, bad positioning. Just how many times have you seen this scenario? You're on a break and at one point you mess up the positioning fo...

Same old same old. You're right but that's not a good example at all, it's pure logic. It can't be too valuable if the only way to benefit from it is when two guys pot equally good. Positional play should make a huge difference between players, as it does irl, and as it does in 9ball; but in vp3 sno...

This has to be one of the best posts ever, because what you said can also apply in real life play.

Savoring Boredom For Longer Runs

Wherever we look in this sexy, fast-paced world, we see enticements to inject our lives with the right measures of bold adventure that they presumably lack. From deep in our sofas we can watch soft-drink guzzlers skateboard across airplane wings, army-of-one commandos jumping into the sea from helic...
