There is only one thing with tables old and new that i have issues with:
that's that aim circle is by microns larger than pool balls and if you want to make a very thin angle shot you miss the ball altogether, even thou they definitely touch.
It seems to me from talking to others that they had same problems.

One clarification to my own post:

aim ball graphics is by microns larger that it's physical size.

Which cursor are you talking about? Nothing has been deliberately changed in this area.

EDIT: Actually the original outline cursor was compressed, that could have made a difference.

the old uk table is too dark i struggle with that ,but the green one with the lighting is so much better i think.

agree Mich - the new light blue ball needs to revert to the dark blue as it too similar to the new cloth colour....dark blue like on the new green table for both 8 us and 9 ball is ideal for those colour tables

Is there no UK tables now with the rim round the pockets?

Can we please get the old tables back with the rim? I really don't like the bland hole only

This shot cursor has now been changed to be created dynamically, this way the cursor is exactly the same size as the cue ball.

EDIT: Seems some problems with the cursor at certain resolutions. I will look into it.

Nick...

Is there any chance of re-introducing the us pro games?

I think that the wider range of players now would love to play it and it will be something fresh.

If there is space issues could you not copy all the killer stats over to the killerpool website? It was made for killer so don't see the point in having 2 sites for it.

Would also free up some space for a new game or 2.

The blue ball on the original coloured cloth is now too light, should have left it at the darker colour, other than that I am happy!


Ta, this has been corrected.

It is the reflection, as you'd see in real life.

I noticed this on killerpool the other day - on the cue ball where you apply spin, it does look pretty bad and I don't feel it's necessary on that

Thanks - it shouldn't be on that, I will correct it.

Wider range of players?! There isn't as many on as what they were (plus snooker has the tendency now to have double the amount of users online that what pool does)

It won't work, it'll just go down the same road as last time pro tables were added.

When playing 8uk it appears that balls do not roll but seem to glide over the table...

You don't get anywhere removing games though, i think it should be given another go and if it doesnt work then fair enough and it should be tried in the future. From what i gather there are loads of people that used to like it, i never seen it myself but i wont say no to extra game types.
