The only problem with this is that.....


With big upgrades comes lag, and until a larger server is available upgrades such as this will cause a lot of lag, so it becomes tough to implement.

Nice idea.

We could get in touch with Len Ganley and ask if he'd consider coming out of retirement to do the honours!

Seriously though, i think it would add a nice touch to the game.

Something like this would not be bad for lag, but would increase the size of the game applet.

The sounds are part of the program so are only downloaded once before gameplay starts.

What size could something like this be scaled down to Dave?

All break scores would have to be covered of course, as well as the call for a foul. Sound quality would not have to be outstanding, so maybe this doesn't necessarily equate to an overly large increase in the programme size?

A simple mono voice could be compressed to a few kb, nothing to cause any big problems i would think. A small amount of extra processing to execute, but again pretty negligable with todays average PC.

A good idea, that shouldnt affect the games performance noticably except on very old machines, and of course it could be turned off if it caused problems.

I'm all for it too

My mistake spinns, I thought it would be slightly larger than that.

Taking all that into consideration it does seem like a great cosmetic upgrade.
