uppercut Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 for some reason when starting a match, it doesnt default to the tv view anymore, how'd i change this back? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet-Zombie-Jesus Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 It's a bug.Should be fixed in the next patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazylen Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Its because you have viewed a game in text only or 2d classic...you can easily change it back at the beginning of the match... At the match analisys screen at the bottom you can choose your standard...classic mode or 3d tv view Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokes_83 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 It is quality programming. Every time it happens I laugh and wonder how this didn't get fixed before the game hit the shelves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

uppercut Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 i had a quick FM game before i left for work this morning (mental note: dont play FM before going to work, you're going to be late again) but the last thing i did was start my upcoming CL match, and i dont know what i did but the match day engine now defaults to 3d view! im sure i've tried almost every combination of tv view under the sun like after FT team talk, go back to the tv view then pressing continue, but i think the only thing i did different was when at the assman's feedback at the prematch, i just pressed "space" to start the match. was willing the match to end quicker so i could save and goto work so i wont find out if its fixed it or not till this afternoon. i had assman doing the team talk so hopefully my whole squad wont be SLT when i check on them! i have another save where im in the 2nd season and its starts in 3d mode as i want, i think i'll avoid watching replays and such as i think thats what started it off.

Glenn Wakeford Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 There is an option before you kickoff in the action buttons called 'View Match'. Set this to TV View and the match will auto-kickoff in TV View. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The option isn't present on a lot of cutsom skins. Use the normal skins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper99 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 There is an option before you kickoff in the action buttons called 'View Match'. Set this to TV View and the match will auto-kickoff in TV View. I've had this explaination given to me a few times and it is not always the case. For example, I view games in 3D but not TV view, and have the game set up in this way. However, if I use opposition instructions before a match it will start the game in TV view and I will have to exit manually. If I dont use OI's this is not the case. Another issue that I've had since the game was released is when I make a tactical change during a game my highlights will no longer automatically show, I must choose to view them manually. These are both very annoying and, despite me raising them both in the bugs forum, show no signs of being fixed EDIT: I only use the custom skin, so that's not the problem, and I run the game on XP.

NeilUK Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 If you are using the default skin, it can't be missed, its before you go to the match after you have picked your team and submitted. There is an option called view match in the left hand bottom menu , it appears in the pre match screens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainPlanet Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I use default skin, windowed and split screen. What I want at the start of matchday is my team ratings on the left, match stats on the right unless a key highlight is showing which then shows in 2D (not classic) in the right side. This requires me setting up my view at the start of each match, and after each tactical change. It's very annoying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper99 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Yep, it's the tactical change thing that annoys me the most. My key highlights fail to be shown after any tactical change is made. They're still playing, but I view my player stats and the game should automatically switch to the highlights when there is one to show. Unfortunately, after a tactical change or substitution, it no longer does this and I simply have to stay on the highlights screen for the remainder of the game to avoid missing any.

uppercut Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 i sort of liked how in the past game, i had it on match view but when there was a pause in processing, it flicked back to the split screen but now in 3d mode, the huge pause is not very elegant.

Ediocy Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 In case you are still wondering where the "View Match" option is, here is the screenshot: Sorry the screenshot was late! It took me ages to finally get to a match... Another thing to note is, once you proceed to the "Team Talk" or "OI" screen, the "View Match" option disappears.

That's why I still watch the 3D but don't use TV view, it should work the same was as the 2D did in FM08 and only flick onto the highlights when they're running, at all other times you can view whatever you want (player stats, league table etc). Unfortunately, as CP and I have discovered, the highlights only show automatically until you make a tactical change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chopper99 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Skorp, have the issues that Captain Planet and myself have mentioned in this thread been picked up on? I've asked this in the bugs forum but have not had a response, and they are very frustrating issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Wakeford Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 That is forgets your setting if you exit TV View? Yes, it's...er... under review! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper99 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 No. As I've said, I do not play in TV view. I play in classic view but still use the 3D. I have my game set on Key Highlights and during games I view the stats of my players. The game then automatically shows a highlight when there is one, as it's always done ever since the 2D was introduced. However, if you make a tactical change this no longer happens, the game simply stays on the screen showing my player ratings and the highlight plays in the background. I though that was pretty clear from the other posts in this thread tbh, along with the fact that, despite having my game set to play in classic view, if I use opposition instructions at the start of the match it starts in TV view.

chopper99 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 You still there Skorp? Now that you hopefully understand the problem can you answer my original question? I've brought this up a few times in the bugs forum, and many other people have added to the threads saying that they suffer the exact same issue, but I've only had one response from the test team, which was similar to yours above. I then provided detailed steps to recreate and heard nothing since. Even being told that this issue cannot be recreated and therefore must be down to my setup would be something, although I doubt that is the case considering the number of people I've seen mentioning the same issue.

Glenn Wakeford Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I don't know if it's been noted or not, best asking in the thread, give it a bump. There are a few match screen bugs similar to this, so it could be encompassed in something. Not sure why the people working the bugs forum haven't helped you out more...
