I like that one !! Nice and smooth, tried min/maxing, resizing window etc. No problems for me

One thing, if you play a full power shot the ball appears to have a trail behind it. I've never noticed that before


Although it could be my eyes, you know playing for too long at once

Works fine for me, really smooth, better than the 7th one

Looking great here Nick - still no problems

I assume from your post that you haven't changed the FPS from Version 7 but I got the impression that it was smoother for some strange reason!

It tries to use 60FPS, but should work acceptably if the machine can not handle it.

Ah excellent - not just me going mad then

As a personal point of interest, is that on a 'sliding scale' or just an either/or thing?

OK this is live now.

Basically the framerate is 60FPS. If your machine can't manage this it will be as high as your machine can handle. This might get changed depending on feedback.

Well all i can say Nick is, so far so good. I've heard a fair amount of feedback off friends and people are liking it. I'm not going to lie, i disliked it at first. But i had a few games on original .vs. jammymac got a few halfs and a 131! So i'm pleased for once (as everyone know's i'm a moaning old goat) A few people have said it is a bit choppy during gameplay but then you did say to me that was possible. There's my feedback, hope it helped.

OK, animation is highly dependent on a user's setup - using a one-size fits all* might not keep everyone happy. If the animation plays funny on your machine I will investigate the matter.

(* In actual fact there are two-different animation modes depending on your system setup)

Nick, would it be possible to have an option to change the animation for us, because im still having the same problem with them rolling on forever, and i hate it.

Option would be nice so could revert back to old rate.

Never mind, looks like i should be able to get used to it within a few days tops

Im fine with it now, doesn't roll as much now, liking it now

Excellent Nick - this is so much smoother, just like demo version (I was wondering whether smoothness would translate to the live version) . This combined with the main update makes for a truly amazing step forward in what was already probably the best snooker game going - as more and more are coming to appreciate.

Thanks

I've patched it today to hopefully resolve the delays some people had for sound, if this still happens please let me know.

I didn't even notice any sound problems but since you've patched it up its making a noise as if I've hit the ball before i actually connect to the aimed ball. Its not the same noise as it used to be once connecting with balls also, even the countdown timer thing has changed (sound wise). This might be just me tho...
