Today, we are releasing a major update for Full Ace. Here is a list of the most notable features :

• Network features from the beta have been improved and integrated to this version. Automatic port forwarding has been removed, as it seemed to cause more problems than it solved. See the updated network instructions in our forums.
• Several translations have been added/updated : spanish, german, and italian.
• A set of three different cameras are now available in-game : the one we used to have, a far one like on the screenshot below, and a close one that puts you more inside the action and will probably be the camera of choice for play. These cameras are available for replays (see below), and more will be added in the future for that purpose.
• Replays are now shown in-game on winners. Replaying the latest point is accessible at any time through the pause menu and registered users may also use the save option there for later viewing/trading.

We really feel those additions bring the game to a new level, and we sure hope you will agree.

Registered users are welcomed to trade their best replays. We would also like you to submit them to us so we can choose a few to appear in a promotional video for the game.

For registered users, the new version is available the same way you got your complete version in the first place. For those who want to try this new demo, use the link below :

Following the promises of the beta version, we have been working on making online play more straightforward and user friendly.

In this regard, we now provide a dedicated matchmaking server. It will allow you to easily find opponents to play against.

Cherry on the cake, we have decided to allow demo players to experience network play too. In order to try it, just download the latest demo through the link below and refer to network instructions on our forum.

People asked many times about being able to play Full Ace online. This has been our priority since the game was released, and we have good news on that regard.

We have provided a beta version allowing network play to our registered customers. We expect it will help us reach a stable version quickly and allow the best possible online tennis experience.

This covers online exhibition games, and a chat functionality active when game is paused, to allow some talking with your opponent.

We will keep you posted on our progress.
