I guess it might be - it's Bank Holiday weekend soon, so I'll get a few hours to isolate some offsets and try to get some kind of build like that going.

Can't understand why it's not loading properly after being saved - and it shouldn't be anything to do with Magpie. :(

Any news neil????
I'm in ongoing discussion with Dan Thomas about it - turns out several attributes may well be considerably more complex than we thought!

Is this regarding batting & bowling or is it just the bowling??

Time to give you all an update on where this is heading.

I've been having a few discussions with Dan Thomas over MSN for the last week or so, and he's prepared to release the code layout, and has contacted Empire to ask for permission.

It turns out that a lot of the code is a lot more complicated than we though.

I'll now try to summarise this in its simplest terms possible!

The standard number system we use is base 10 - ie 100s - 10s - Units
The binary number system is base 2 - ie 16s - 8s - 4s - 2s - 1s
Hexadecimal is base 16 - ie 256s - 16s - 1s

Hexadecimal runs 0123456789ABCDE, where C=13, for example.

Therefore, one hex number (between 0-15 in terms of base 10) can be established in binary as a four-digit number.

In our example of 13, that's 1x8 + 1x4 + 0x2 + 1x1 = 1101

So, for every hex digit, there are up to four "flags" that can work either independently or together to turn various attributes on or off.

AH thats excellent news. Hopefully Empire will allow dan to release the info. I see no reason why not, after all it can only make the game more popular if theres an editor available for it.

It's in my signature (scroll up the page a bit) or profile.

English time as I post this is 12.23pm (i.e. just after midday). I'm usually on 10pm-midnight and various other times.

Is It possible to stop spinners dominating in ICC2002 , I usually attack the faster bowlers and have to defend more against the spinners (Even part time crap ones)
Its just not cricket!!!!
