Some of the new features look awesome Mark.

Just a quick question, will the Breeding engine be tweaked at all in SO5?

Cant wait, one thing i did notice which could become a major issue is......'Hexam' which should be 'Hexham' lol.

Sounds like an amazing step forward, and, great that Mark has listened and tried to accomodate most of the suggestions for SO5. Would love to see a demo, but, has certainly whetted the appetite.

having looked closely at the screenshots, just a couple of things. On the shot of Cheltenham when they're obviously on the far side away from the stands, the stands are on the inside of the course with the crowd facing towards you, surely it should be a rear view of the stand? , and, will the size of the crowd vary with meetings? a midweek meeting at Hexham having a sparse crowd, whereas a major weekend fixture having a large crowd? Just a thought. The saying having my cake and eating it comes to mind, but, you get nothing without asking :D

One question Mark, will each stable get a specific silk attached to it?

Thanks for the feedback.

Breeding is as SO4 as far as I know there are no problems with it.

The Stands may well be facing the wrong way. The fact is they are there to give some variation and the orientation may be wrong. The new stands are in many cases intended to vaguely reflect their real life counterparts are are not exact copies (mainly due to time constraints).

There are still mostly two meetings. The three meeting option is designed for where feature races demand it.

Just one question from me:

If I decide to create a new schedule is there a maximum number of feature races at my disposal.

For SO4 I got about three weeks from the end of October (Flat) when I couldn't create anymore - had to go back and turn some two meeting days into one.

Would be fantastic if feature race creation was unlimited.

PS: Thanks for info on crowd scenes and muffled commentary, yes it is all personal and glad to know they can be modified. Rest of game looks really good.

Any chance of a video showing the new horse animations, undulation effects etc?
