A day of work on the room the match is played in.

The nets are nets. Every sport's net was two solid boxes — a white bar with nothing under it. They are now a tiled cord texture at the spacing each sport's rules fix: badminton and sepak takraw 18 mm, indoor and beach volleyball 100 mm, tennis 40 mm, table tennis 12.5 mm. You look through the net at the rally the way an umpire does.

The stands are stands. The audience seat was a 7,404-triangle model thrown away down to 12% of itself to afford 312 of them, which left a white lump with no seat and no back. It is now an 80-triangle tip-up arena chair kept whole, bolted square to the row — and the crowd sits in it, getting to its feet only to react. The hall lost 19–37% of its triangles in the process.

Tennis and table tennis are lit like the rest. They were the last two halls on a flat rig — one light over a high ambient, which is a room with the strip lights on. Both are on the shared truss now, with real lamps over the court.

The line judge puts their arms down. After an OUT the arms stayed out for the rest of the match, in every sport, since the signal was written.

Credits. Every 3D model in this game is Creative Commons Attribution, where naming the author is a condition of the licence. There is a CREDITS screen on the title menu now, and it names all sixteen.

Also: the umpire's chair no longer faces the back wall in cutscenes.

macOS: open the .dmg and drag the app to Applications. It is ad-hoc signed, so the first launch needs right-click → Open.
Windows: one .exe, nothing to install.
