Suggest: improve the lobs. It would be awesome if you could score with a lob, like Totti for example... Can you fix it? Thanx!

Hey Guys... Really sorry coz i have made no more updates yet again... My exams are starting on the 5th of December so i'm gonna be busy from then on until the 12th. So i won't be able to work on Fifa in that time space but will try my best to read the requests that you guys send in... It's nice to see that you guys like the way i think. Coz i think that i does signal the fact that you guys will like my patch. Really looking forward to it.
Oh almost forgot to reply:
1) I'm sorry but i can't persuade myself to think that i can accomplish goals being scored from Lobs as the goalies as i said are gonna be really smart and to beat them you need to be one step ahead of them in intelligence so maybe if the lob is an intelligent option, you may be able to score. I can't make any promises though.
2) Nah can't change the crowds as it's simply not part of the CORE gameplay. You can although ask Ariel about it as he's really good at doing all this.
3) Cricketstar friend well i'd like to say that you start practicing the freekicks then. Coz you know the new system it's so real i can't think of the patch without it. <<<IT ADDS RANDOM EFFECTS>>> Simply explained in the sentence above...
Ok Got to go now. Will reply to your requests as soon as i can. Bye Guys and Have fun with Fifa!!!

Are you going to make the keeper charge when my striker is clean through on goal so that I get to chip him?

Edit: typos

Hey Guys... Back reading the forums again.
1) Expected release date... well won't make no promises but am looking to release it by the 20th of December.
2) I see alot of hype about the keepers but Really sorry that i won't be able to fulfil the wishes of A.L.Sealy and Darigaaz36. You see the keeper charging system has been eliminated altogether in fifa 2004. Not that they don't charge anymore but in fifa 2003 we had control over the way they charged which in 2004 is not possible anymore. Sadly the goalies won't ever get injured unless they move out of their D or 18 yard box :-( .
Made some updates to the gameplay right before this reply. Here is what i did:
1) Old bugs carried on by EA have been fixed. Now you'll experience better shooting, passing, lobbing and crossing responses from the game. One of the most anoying things that used to happen was that even if you press the pass button, the pass wasn't made until you made a considerable effort of keeping down the pass button for a long time. No such problems will occur now!!!

That's all guys but only for now. Bye and Have fun with Fifa!!!

Hey Guys. Made a small but good update just now. I made the chip function more real. When you chip it doesn't mean a lob does it? That's coz it's a chip. So now chips have lesser height than before.

That's all for now but just wanted you guys to know about the update i made.

It's sooooo easy to score with lobs. Okay in training, go up into the penalty area, as soon as the keeper comes near you hold walk and dont press any directional button, gently tap lob and it will go straight in. Remember don't aim.

Kaashif man youre a living legend!!!.Your patches in fifa2003 taught me a lot of things.Anyway!Could you please answer me a question about gameplay editing?To change dribbling and make it easier what variable should i change in ini.big?Hope you'd like to teach us some things and dont think we'll steal your patch and change it saying its ours:crazyboy: .I'm just started editing gameplay and find it quite hard to understand all of those variables and which values do range

Hey there. I think run_florest_run is the name. Thanks for the compliment Bro. As i've said for so long. Fifa isn't a place where everyone has foes. It's a place where everyone is a friend. We all look towards the same goal. The goal being real football simulation. So why MAKE enemies for yourself? I fail to understand why some people have this all-foe strategy...

Anyways. Yeah i'd love to help you guys out. It makes me feel good rather than bad that someone likes my patch and wants to learn from me.

The most obvious entries regarding dribbling are these:
SPRINT_SPEED_POOR = *
SPRINT_SPEED_AVG = *
SPRINT_SPEED_GOOD = *
SPRINT_SPEED_EX = *

DRIBBLE_TURN_DELAY_POOR = *
DRIBBLE_TURN_DELAY_AVG = *
DRIBBLE_TURN_DELAY_GOOD = *
DRIBBLE_TURN_DELAY_EX = *

If you play with them you can make dribbling better. Just keep in mind use values that are close to the default ones and always check ingame after you make any changes. If you want to see a line's function, then you can use some extreme value(FAR FAR AWAY FROM THE DEFAULT) and check the difference ingame. The strategy in fifa to get real gameplay is simple trial-&-error method. You have to check each value and judge which is the best one to use. I'd recommend you check the changes once you make at the most 5 changes. Coz if you have any problems after the changes, you'll find it pretty hard to find the problem with even 5 editions made to the game.

Other lines you'd like to know regarding dribbling are:

DRIBBLE_KNOCK_OPPONENT_DISTANCE = *

EVALBALL_BESTCASEDELAY = *
EVALBALL_WORSTCASEDELAY = *
EVALBALL_BESTCASESPEED = *
EVALBALL_WORSTCASESPEED = *
EVALBALL_MAX_PLAYABLE_HEIGHT = *
You'd be surprised to see the last 5 lines i've included but they have the most obvious influence ingame!!! If you make the BESTCASEDELAY and WORSTCASEDELAYS smaller, you'll find players taking less time to execute dribble and other actions after you've dribbled. Like if you increase the values here, you'll find that the player will take long to make a dribble and pass after you pressed the E button and S button only once. Try it out and get your optimum settings. I hope this all helps you... Bye...

Change i made most recently:
-You'll also see players getting slight knocks where they get injured for a small amount of time.
-Finally freekicks trashing the posts!!!
-Trying to fix the strategy to allow alot of crosses from the wings and more even possession too.

That's all for now... Hey guys can anyone tell me how to get my signature here?? Thanks. Bye.

kashif good work until now...waiting for your patch!!

is it possible to make cpu use the skill moves like 360 and others??
secondly ..i'm using feel the game gameplay rite now and cpu makes only 1 tactical sub...any way to make them use 2 or sometimes even 3 subs in the match??

lastly and most importantly...even if possession in the end comes equal its very easy to take the ball away from cpu ..just have to sprint next to them and u take it way..plzz try and make them keep the ball and make chances!!

will be waiting for your patch..keep it up!!

Hello Guys...I must say thanks to Rahul and FifaSnipers to raise these 3 rather 4 issues.

Rahul i'd like to tell you that i'm trying to make the CPU use skill moves but sadly i've had no success yet. But i'm still trying...

Secondly to make the CPU sub more i can see only i solution. Let's make every game have an injury and so the CPU will be forced to sub that player. But seriously i must tell you that there is no control over the CPU subs thing except on/off.

Yes you're right. Taking the ball away is as easy as saying 1-2-3. But although i don't have the solution on the dribbling side but i have the solution to it in another way. If the player passes the ball once an opponent comes close is i think a very good option. I've used this to make it more real.

Yes FifaSnipers you noticed a really good thing. Groundshots must be stronger and yes i've done something to make this happen.

Not to many updates. But here is what i've done yet and what i'm trying to do right now:
-Stronger groundshots(Forgot to mention but had it done a long time ago)
-Better usage of possession(But still trying to improve it)
-Trying to balance possession with attacking play.

That's all for now. Keep sending in the requests. Will be reading them every now and then. Bye and have fun!

gr8 work kashif....

just 1 more thing...long shots go in quite easily....any way to make them go higher and go over the bar...that doesnt happen often and ball goes into the goal at a pretty low height....even if he does score he shud be shooting in the top corners or something...is it possible to change this??

Hi Kashef, good work.
I noticed that when the ball is at the edge of the penalty box but inside it, and I charge my keeper, he gets to the ball and slides on it instead of shhoting or grabbing it. Do you think you can fix that?
Again, THX for your effort.:rockman:
