Got 2 possible bugs in Beta Patch 1.0131

Post by Magnum357 »

I just installed Beta Patch 1.0131 and have only encountered 2 bugs that concerned me.

The fist is that it seems to me that the lighting is darker in this Patch then in previous patches. I played a Quick Play game with the Default American League (including a Quick game with a Custom league) and it just seems like everything is darker. I was playing these quick games with a Custom Stadium and during a Normal Clear Day setting during the daytime, not night. Has anyone notice this aswell? Could this just be my video card or something? Below is a screenshot of one of the games.

Also, when I click on ESC to get the Game menu screen, the Lighting gets a whole lot brighter (like in previous Beta patches), and if I return to the game, the lighting gets Darker again.

The other bug is where i was playing a Quck game US League and I tried a Feildgoal attempt at the 15 yard line. The game indicated I had attempted a 57 yard kick. If my LOS (line of Scrimage) was at the 10, and I add 5 yards back for the Place of the Kick, and add 10 yards of Endzone, that would give me a 25 yard attempt. I was playing Chicago Versus Cleveland I think. Here is a Screenshot of the bug.

David, might I suggest if you are going too calculate Feildgoal Completion Distance, how about Calculating from the Origional Line Of Scrimage to the Goalposts. In Football, its actually where the Place of the kick is attempted, but I can see that being kinda hard to code into MaxFB as some users might adjust the distance back where the Kicker actually kicks the ball. Maybe using the LOS might be a easier solution to this.

No changes to the lighting system have been made in any of the recent patches/updates.

David, found out some new information on this problem. I don't know what happened, but before I was playing these Quick Play games with the Low Player model and with Normal Shadows. I decided to test this again with "Normal Player" models and "No Shadows", the Darkness of the game was not there this time. I don't know why this happened, but it seems to be only doing it too me when I play with Low Player Models and Shadows.
