AO International Tennis - Settings/Sliders thread

[RetroDee4Three]

I feel like it's time to have a thread like this. The conversation in the AO International Tennis main thread has veered off into a "Sim Sliders" discussion. Enough conversation exists on this topic now to have it's own thread.


Post your settings/sliders here, and make sure you designate what they are for. For example, Arcade or Simulation. This game can be tailored towards arcade as well with the right slider (Think Virtua Tennis), but can also be tailored to sim heads who prefer TS4 style of play.


I'll start this one off.

ARCADE:


Difficulty: Pro
Surface: Hard

Game Speed: 99
Ball Speed: 85

Assisted Movement: 99
Aiming Sensitivity: 50


Difficulty: Pro
Surface: Clay

Game Speed: 99
Ball Speed: 70

Assisted Movement: 99
Aiming Sensitivity: 50


Difficulty: Pro
Surface: Grass

Game Speed: 99
Ball Speed: 90

Assisted Movement: 99
Aiming Sensitivity: 50




Simulation:


Difficulty: Legend
Surface: Hard

Game Speed: 65
Ball Speed: 75

Assisted Movement: 75
Aiming Sensitivity: 50


Difficulty: Legend
Surface: Clay

Game Speed: 65
Ball Speed: 64

Assisted Movement: 75
Aiming Sensitivity: 50


Difficulty: Legend
Surface: Grass

Game Speed: 65
Ball Speed: 80

Assisted Movement: 75
Aiming Sensitivity: 50


*Note: These are just my opinions and require further testing.


The beautiful thing about this game is that we can make it arcade or sim, so I welcome anybody to come onto this thread and post the settings/sliders that they enjoy for either.


Thanks!

I see that Serchenko recommends different values for Clay and Hard court ball speed and general speed. I have also seen Retro's recommendations above.

Has a definitive sweet spot been found for the different surface types for realistic rally length and surface speed?

Anyone have differing opinions?

Clay
BS = ?
SP = ?

Hard
BS = ?
SP = ?

Grass
BS = ?
SP = ?

Thanks!

Already posted before but my current setup is

Clay
BS = 50
SP = 50

Hard
BS = 70
SP = 50

Grass
BS = 90
SP = 50


However this is a very personal thing. Higher gamespeed than 50 for me just looks very arcadey with long rallies

The game physics itself should cater for this really, but the exaggerated difference in ball speed between surfaces at least gives an impression playing on clay is slower, grass is quicker etc

My current setup for Simulation:

PRO LEVEL

CLAY:
GS 55
BS 54

HARD
GS 55
BS 75

GRASS
GS 55
BS 85

simulation .

aimming sensitv 55 ( not higher than 61 than you can play to easy left rigth left right most on the line with extrem angles )
movement 80 less and i became problems when com makes Stops and i must run to the net

Clay:

BS 60
GS 55

Hard

BS 75
GS 65

Grass

BS 90
GS 60

I have little different Gamespeeds between i think for example, on clay you can not accelerate so fast because it is slippery than on hard place where you have more grip and you can accelerate fast and the game gets little bit faster

Last night, I watched a ton of retro tennis. I watched Borg McEnroe in the 1980 Wimbledon final, I watched Jimmy Connors, Ivan Lendl, etc. After, I went into AOIT and messed with the game speed/ball speed.


80's recommended sliders


Grass:


Game Speed: 20
Ball Speed: 30


Clay:


Game Speed: 15
Ball Speed: 20


Hard:

Game Speed: 20
Ball Speed: 25




For reference: Take a look at the video I posted in the Screenshots/Video thread, the speed of the ball is very realistic for the time (I was basing it off of McEnroe vs Borg in 1980 mostly).

Have you guys changed any settings based on the latest patch released?

Throwing my hat in here...I will have my personal settings in here in the near future for both modern day and retro tennis.

Great bases to start with here from both MJ Wizards and RetroDeeThree
