Hello,

It is impossible to save a career, with the XKT and XKT (WTET) mode.

When the game prompts me to save, it tells me that I have no free space for the save.

Available space: 0.0 MB Required: 0.6 MB

So, it's very annoying because I can't start the career mode as a result.

Same problem with the mod (series X). On top of that a crash after a long world tour final running vanilla (frustrating!) so all progress lost , the pause menu requires holding down a button, the UI tooltips don't reflect the item state on the character sheet so you're left guessing the icon, at least one screen talks about hitting escape and generally the game feels like it needs an extra week in the oven (if there's not auto save, there should be imo).

There is no career mode on WTET, it's a mod based for online play only. If you're playing career I recommend XKT.

rafaelnadal,
thanks and you're very welcome ! :yes:

Vik1596,
you should use a friend invitation (from the Xbox interface, not TE4's one) once you have created your hosting game.

KarLewis,
terminate the game and launch it again. There's a bug in the Xbox system when clicking Restart and I forgot to handle it correctly for this case... :sweat:

StanFan,
1) To pause the game, press the Menu button -> Up -> Release Menu button. This is done like this so it's fast to launch the replay.

2) Tooltips are fixed for the next update, hopefully authorized by Microsoft tomorrow ; it'll also fix the game crashing when winning a final

3) There was one 'Esc' ; I just removed it (so not for the next update, but the next one) :blackeye:

4) There's an autosave ; check in World Tour -> Load Game

Good news on the patch, sounds like that fixes all my issues. I guess it's not going to change now but I strongly disagree on the pause - it's not that I couldn't figure it out, it's that there's already a standard metaphor for this and doing a weird combo is often the opposite of what I want when I've just spilled something :)

I'll check for autosave, thanks, although save is fast so maybe on by default would make sense, at least while it's new? If I wasn't paranoid I guess I could have lost entire tournament progress and I'd probably have just ragequit the game at that point !

Everybody,
oh damn, the outfit customization is completely failing when using Modded outfits : there are textures left in the memory every time you change a part... Plus there's at least 1 bug... I'll have to fix that hopefully tomorrow, but I'm not sure when it will lead to an update, as we have to wait for the Microsoft greenlight on yesterday's one 1st. :sweat:
So basically, if you play with the XKT, customize your player, save your career, close the game, then launch the game again, to avoid the game closing coz of the lack of memory left. :fear:

polakis,
Xbox One X (I tested), or any Xbox Series (I didn't test, but it seems they are significantly better than the Xbox One X).

Everybody,
the update has been published ! (v1.129.5.0)
Only 2 fixes, though :
- you can now win tournaments
- tooltips should be working correctly in all cases

More will come, but I'm still not sure when, as it depends on Microsoft, and I have to fix the outfit configuration 1st as well. :fear:

Hey Manutoo
I've just bought the game on Xbox, and i don't find the option to play on 2D courts, however it seems to me that it was included in the xkt mod
I'm blind or just stupid? :thinking:

@manutoo

I'm still getting crashes with winning tournaments. It's happening when I try to play a new one after winning. Also getting black screen, once for a few seconds and then when trying to play a new tournament after the crash with the scoreboards still showing.

I'm playing with XKT mod on Xbox series X

I must have started a new career 10 times now, getting a little sick of the long process of making a new career only for it to be corrupted

Great game though when it works it's just sooo much fun

Tom292,
Settings -> Video -> Advanced -> 2D Background -> On -> Apply. :yes:

GFellows,
I checked again and winning a tournament doesn't crash the game anymore ; I don't receive anymore Bug Reports, so it's clearly fixed.

So what you state is likely something else : winning or losing, changing tournaments might make the game run out of memory. If I'm correct, then your game closes without any message, instead of crashing with the Bug Report popping up. Did I guess that right ? :thinking:

If yes, then save the game after you have finished a tournament, terminate the game, launch it again, and you should be alright.

Also, very important : I got several reports about loading issue after have closed the game. I checked and it happened to me : the game tells me the loading just crashed. But actually, manually Loading the Slot Z works. So do that till I figure out what's going on exactly... :fear:

Bonus tip : save your game right after you have started a new career to avoid starting a new one if it crashes right away, and if you're a few weeks in, don't forget that you can load an automatically weekly save from World Tour -> Load Game.

No the game didn't completely close, I got the crash screen for sending a report when I tried to start the second tournament (getting a wild card into it) I then managed to load into it but the screen was black, with only the scoreboard still showing.

Thanks for the tip about having a save just with my newly created character to save doing it all again.

Oh BTW does starting a career at say rank 30 stop the game ever giving the achievements for reaching those levels in career?

@manutoo
I hadn't seen the Advanced button, thanks.
But once in play on the 2D court, I don't have the time display or the service speed in both corner, is this normal?
As I remember on TE2013, it was displayed

Hi, I just got this for Xbox and got the XKT mod too.

For some reason, the players faces are weird in career mode when you start, and they have two pairs of eyes and their lips are appearing in their necks! It's like there's an overlay on top of the standard faces but it's in the wrong place.

Has anyone else had this same issue?

I don't know how to post an image to show this. It's very creepy!
