Yes the OP is what everyone is using. There aren't any changes to be made at this time.

So are you getting any offense at all with this set.
I have come to the conclusion this set is not for me.
After 30 games in my CHW season I am batting .189 as a team with only 8 hrs.
Meanwhile my team ERA is 1.99.
I am just not seeing any offense at all.

I'm having the same problem as you regarding pitching... I dominate every time I'm on the hill, thinking of maybe jumping up to HOF for pitching.

I'm just playing random exhibition games... My last 3 games...

R H
Tigers 0 4
Rays (me) 1 8

0 HR
2 2B

R H
White Sox (me) 0 6
O's 3 7

2 HR
3 2B

R H
Brewers (me) 4 11
Twins 1 8

2 HR
1 2B

I'm getting my share of HR's... But, I'm hitting A LOT of singles... I can't seem to get any doubles or triples.

I recommend using one of these...

TNK's Custom Camera (1st picture)

or

G'Mo's Custom Camera (2nd picture)

[The Kid 24]

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

I use G'Mo's camera but I leave the camera centered and I noticed my offense seems to be better because I can read pitches better.

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

** NOTE - I know the game may play a little differently in Franchise, so I want to get some games in before considering any changes to the sliders at this time. I know we will probably reduce FOUL BALLS by a click at some point.

TNK... What are thinking of lowering Human/CPU Foul Balls to? I'm thinking it should be lowered to at least 3... Still in my games that I play, every hitter seems to foul off at least 2-3 pitches... Lowering this should lead to more K's.

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

Lost a spring training game to Mariners 16-5. Yep, 16. I'm using pulse pitching which is a mess - the CPU never, ever chases pitches so you have to throw over the plate. Or you risk walking the entire lineup like I did. Such BS.

My very next game against the Cubs, they hit a very inside change up over the wall for a lead-off home run. Its like they can read my location

Also, the CPU is getting a ton of down-the-line doubles while seemingly being able to vacuum every down-the-line ball that I hit. Anyone else witnessing this?

Ive had a few games like this too. One game aginst the A's, they put up 6 runs in the first inning against kershaw (me) and didnt get a run or a hit the rest of the game (weird). During that inning they hit a ton of liners just past my fielders gloves, but they snagged everyone of my low-liners. White sox put up 16 runs on me in a game, but Kinerko struck out 4 times and the rest of thier sluggers were unproductive too, it was the back-half of the lineup killing me, fortunately not every game is like this, but i suppose that stuff could happen in real life. Just keep playing and pitching smart, and you will get better, i was frustrated as hell early on trying to get used to this set, but the more u play the better you get, and the games start feeling more and more realistic in the long run.

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

I almost gave up on this game with timing hitting. I switched to zone w/out moving the pci and have been making great contact. I have been working the count alot better this way. Averaging 2-3 walks per game and could be more if not for the curve ball. However, I live and die by the home run. I cant seem to manufacture runs at all.

Pulse pitching works but too good most of the time. I can paint whenever I want to. I might lower consistency 1 notch and go from there.

Great slider set TNK

Try turning off ALL the aids, including the pitching marker... Once I turned this from "fade" to "none"... Pulse pitching has been allot tougher :0

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

These slider are really an excellent set and great starting point, excellent work TNJ! Below are my modifications for my style of play, let me know you alls thoughts.

-Couldnt hit or give up hits so....
lower pitch speed slider all the way down to 1.
computer contact and solid +1 from slider set.

-Fielding errors +1 from set.
-Human pitching const and accuracy down 1 using pulse, makes it tougher.

I use timing and default camera hitting. For pitching I just changed to the over the shoulder of the pitcher. For some reason it seems to make pitching easier, maybe I just hit my spots better?? Any thoughts on this? Its been just a few games so probably juz coincedence. Stealing bases does seem to be a tad easy too, for me both and comp.

Getting great, realistic results! Thanks for the work all

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

Fenway... I agree with you!!

I used these instructions for the camera but I left the camera dead center so the plate is in the middle of my screen.... And I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! My offense is much better with this view!

Dead center, eh? I think I will give that a go because since changed to the cam, I am hackIng a bit. I'll square up the cam to see if I can increase my patience a bit

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

Here are a couple of minor adjustments that I've made.

human contact to 6 (seeing pci closer to pitch more often, seeing better overall contact using timing only hitting)
fielder run speed to 2 (seeing players make to many sure hits an out)
pitch speed to 5 (personal preference)

still playing more games to get a better feel for everything and these are my adjustments just from what I've seen.
