There's a known issue with 4113 Quick Play for new installations.
Try:
Uninstall VP4
Download and install 4114 from here: http://www.celeris.com/virtual_pool_4_w ... nload.html

Thanks.
I'm currently in a pro tour carrier and i cant find the save games folder.. its not possible to delete vp4 without save my carrier file.

If you just uninstall VP4 and install the new version you will keep your careers and settings.

Or you can use my VP4 Utility Belt application.

Ok i uninstall VP4 (4.1.1.3) and install new 4.1.1.4 but why i have in game "check for updates" ? Why we have the check for updates button in game?!

[polomint77]

The "Check for updates" button is specifically for if you wish to check manually.

[Andreas Binz]

I've check in game for updates but no updates found although 4.1.1.4 is available.

[polomint77]

4.1.1.4 is not a public release as far as I am aware, I believe it is for testers only.

4113 has a bug crashing QP in new first time installations.
To quickly fix this, full version 4114 was introduced.

4114 is the current official release on the Celeris download page, it's what you get when you first time buy and install the game.
It was released as full version only. Only difference between 4113 and 4114 is this fix of the QP crash.

That's why there is no patch 4113 to 4114 and that's why check for update in 4113 doesn't find anything.

I've found a little graphik bug (shadow flickering) in location deep pockets club. My graphic settings is all max.

[polomint77]

The flickering bug is known about, so hopefully should get fixed soon.

[Andreas Binz]

Thanks.
Is somewhere a known bug list or someone like that?

Something that I've just found.

The bug concerns about the players rating points. Noticed this one on version 4.1.1.3 on snooker pro tour career match. Wan't to increase your rating? All you gotta do is play a frame and pot the winning/last ball on the frame -> Your rating gets higher for winning the frame and next frame starts -> press R to replay the last shot you made -> You keep your new rating but it will also increase again during the replay ("another win"). Press R again if you want more points. And if you want even more points press R one more time. And if you are really low on rating points you can do this like hundred times

[polomint77]

lol, I never noticed that.. Although winning a frame at the moment tends to give me maybe 2 points at most, :( The given points seem to reduce a lot once you get past 2300...

Minor.. but still. Game says its a touching ball situation (see the indicator on the top left corner of the zoomed-out pic) which can be clearly seen really isn't. Maybe the games graphics doesn't match perfectly to game mathematics/geometry?

[Hanterp]

Some refs haven't good eyes, that is the same as in real life :-)

[Andreas Binz]

you mean this "bug" is a in game random generator for referee wrong decision ? Hehe sounds good.

offtopic: english is not my best - is my english style okay or is it

Minor: "Save game" works in different way in trick/setup shot mode versus normal match mode:

- "normal match mode" player 1 vs AI for example": Save game -> set the name for the file -> Save game again -> click on the same file -> game says "overwrite existing file?". Filename stays .vpg no matter how many times it is overwritten.
- trick/setup shot mode: Save game -> set the name for the file -> Save game again -> click on the same file -> game saves the game but doesn't overwrite the existing file but creates another one with extra .vpp into the end of filename. If you save many times the filename could then be savegame.vpp.vpp.vpp.vpp.vpp
