New Patch 3237 released today

Post by zwylle »

Celeris have released the new patch 3237 for VP3DL released today.
Hopefully this will become the official tourney version within the next couple of days.

If you want to give it a try:
http://www.celeris.com/games/vp3/patch/
If you try it and decide to go back to 3225 you can do that by following the instructions on http://www.vp3help.com/index.php

The patch was tested by a number of members of this community, if you still find any bugs please report them here.



Changes compared to official VPHQ version 3225:

# VP3DL Patch 3237
Physics Changes
- Tweaked the rail reversal effect of balls changing when hitting them back and forth at low angles and higher speeds
- Tweaked the rail speeds
Misc Changes
- Corrected a problem with running on Windows Vista

# VP3DL Patch 3235
Physics Changes

- Corrected a problem where cue ball on pocket edge moves to center of table
- Corrected "stun bug"
- Rails friction is now slightly higher
Online Changes
- Attempted to fix problem with save games getting corrupted
Misc Changes
- On a snooker break and a foul occurs and the opponent passes the turn back, the break statistics did not reset to zero
- Snooker longest run was not being recorded
- Using amplify during ball in hand allows moving the cue ball through other balls and if another key was pressed while moving the cue ball, it could be dropped inside another ball
- Corrected sound bug where pocket sounds would occur when rails or table top was hit
- Added a L (left) or R (right) to the left of players name for One Pocket to show which pocket the player owns
- Fixed bug where Move Ball could not be remapped to mouse buttons
- Changed rack spacing for better break
- Corrected a problem with registration that could cause VP3DL to become unregistered
- Alternate break now works properly when a player explicitly changes turn at the start of a game
Rule Changes
- When CO made an illegal break in Straight Pool or Basic Pocket Billiards and the rebreak was specified the turn was not passed back to the CO
Career Changes
- Changing the bet with Curley did not allow betting more than $10,000
