Build 165 ; SubBuild 2026.10.3

Here's an update with a big new feature : the Dynamic Clay ! There are also some important changes and fixes.

I hope you'll enjoy it. 🙂

New Features :

• Rendering : now the ball and the player's feet leave their traces on the clay court ! You can disable or change the texture resolution with Settings -> Video -> Advanced -> Dynamic Clay. The Modders will have to allow their Clay to be modified, so right now it's working only on the unmodded clay (look for DynamicClay here https://www.managames.com/Forum/topic60-34019.php ). The ball impacts aren't very accurate, so they may look like they touched the line when they didn't (and vice versa) ; ie: it's only a visual effect, don't yell at the umpire because of it ! 😅

Changes :

• Gameplay : greatly increased the run acceleration lowering when the player gets low Breath and/or low Energy
• Gameplay : slightly raised the AutoPos trick speed on return of serve
• Gameplay : slightly lowered the strike precision bonus when sliding
• Engine : optimize memory consumption, so the older consoles will have enough memory to use the new Dynamic Clay (at least in its Low Res version)
• Modding : allow disabling the MD5 check when downloading a Mod (in case mod.io server's one is actually incorrect) ; to do so, change this line in your Tennis.ini, under [Menu], from : ModIgnoreMD5 = 0 to : ModIgnoreMD5 = 1 (HowTo => https://www.managames.com/Forum/topic19-32161.php )

Bug Fixes :

• Online : fixed a couple of issues with some rare cases of the ELO calculations
• Gameplay : the net jump could wrongly trigger when being lobbed
• Modding : the auto-reload on Mod change is now much more robust and most bugs should be fixed (hopefully :fear: )
• Modding : show tournament draws could get corrupted when playing with a Country Cup different from the base game one
