Release 1.3

[Cap]

Despite my setbacks, in order to provide some meagre encouragement to Paul for sticking with this soul-sucking project, I've just bought two more licenses for this game.

Bring on the next version!(With the improved Fight Screen and larger fighter pics.)

- fixed fighter stats calculation. Explain please.
- Editing history date updates title history too. Does this mean we can edit histories totally?
- added change date to options dialog. Where?
- fixed international date format. See above.
- improved fight pics - short colours still not right. Keep working on it.
- added main page exit button. I'll have to look again.
- added in game skin hotkeys. What?
- added options system tab. Also what?
- added row edit control. How does this work and where is it? Can we fix column setup in organisations?

You know. There was a time not so long ago when this patch announcement would've been met with a couple of dozen replies and a loud huzzah! Where did everybody go?

Paul and All,

I was hoping this would have been addressed. It seems that we still can not pick a group of fighters and just toggle through them. We end up just seeing whoever the game decides on.

I hope this is clear.

Thanks.

Behind dialogs that require actions, for example when opening the options dialog..

Yes, its still a cookie but most people wanted it on by default.

Some of the data was failing to display, if memory serves it was nation related. If you did not see it, then is was not an issue for you

A "fix saved game" function you should not need to use. It resets certain tables in the currently loaded saved game as a few people have sent me their saved games to fix manually. I though it would be easier to say "Hit F4" if/when it becomes an issue again.

There were a number of issues raised on these boards about the stats recording incorrectly. Kd's Ko's and DQ's etc..

No, it fixes the issue that changing a bouts date in the history left the title history on the old date.

Options->Game Options... to the right of date offset...

That the best I can do without the original artwork...

Top right corner...

See the online docs for details:

Not sure what you are asking here, but if you look at the options dialog there is a fourth tab now called "System" that gives information about your computer. So if one has trouble I can ask for information from this area to help me debug the problem..

On the fighters page select Columns->change... Scoll to the bottom and enable "Fighter Edit Button"... Now you will see a red button at the end of each row. Clicking this button will take you instantly to that fighters details page. Its used by default on the handheld devices as double click is not so easy to do on an iPad...

Multiple thanks for those answers, oh Great One!

One other question. I don't see the title belt pics showing up where they're supposed to and when I created a new test org the venue pics were displayed instead. Is anyone else seeing this or just lucky old me?

If I understand you correctly, I have just fixed this and it will be in the next version (v1.4)

Woops, I had a typo in an optimisation for the iPad build... I have fixed it now, you will get the fix in v1.4

[Cap]

Is it just me or is anyone else seeing the Ultimate Fighting Championship (Blah!) poster in the gym again? Big insult to old ringrats like me. Smaller to new kids. Also the bag on top of the lockers is gone.

Cap

[Lee]

Not seeing that in my game and the bag is still there too

Thanks, Paul. I will look for it and anything else that I come across.

Best regards,

I just installed TBCB in my Galaxy S4! thats too dangerous for me xD

[mark_htfc]

Is anybody else having issues after installing patch 1.3? After installing the patch, the first thing I get now when loading the game up is the following message, telling me that an update is available and recommends 1.2? Anybody know how to fix this?

[Hanson Bros]

hit ignore ... Paul just hasn't made 1.3 the recommended version yet, waiting to make sure there are no game killers ... think he mentions it earlier in this thread

[mark_htfc]

Cheers HB, I had read through the thread before posting but I must have missed it.

Yes its in the top post... there have been a few minor issues found with v1.3, I will fix them and release v1.4 which will be the next recommended version.

[mark_htfc]

Cheers Paul. I must have totally skipped that bit.

[Lee]

Hey Paul, I am going to do some additional work on the commentary, do you think it will be more than a couple of months before 1.4? Just want to plan accordingly on what to focus on.

[Cap]

Lee, hows about tossing in some old timey slang here and there in the commentary? Like "Marciano belts him a good one in the slats." "Chuvalo hangs one on his mug." "Patterson drills three straight lefts to his grill." Wepner has taken so many blows to the face both his lamps are nearly closed."

Cap

LOL, as a transplanted Limey I would love that, just would have to make it regional based I think and no way to do that. Still, I think I can throw you a couple of bones Cap. They will be rare lines, but doesn't hurt to have an obscure line pop up here and there.

Game functionality could be increased if a selection box could be included among the change column choices. It would make mass editing work much better. The possibility of selecting individual does exist in 2.5
