Well, Konami will be releasing a patch in a few days so we should be seeing v1.08 sometime late next week.

Thanks! I had completely forgotten that particular option. You don't need to understand machine code to do these things. You can decode the exe and get some semblance of high level code to work with. The thing is, after you do that, you have to refactor it and study every single weird line...

Brilliant patch! I'm hoping that komu will also try to add the -1 and -2 speed settings that are missing from the PC version. Though that might very well be impossible. PS: I'm curious about how he's managed to do all this work in the first place. Has the source code for the game been leaked?

Just tested the 1.06a version in BAL. The AI, both opponents and own team, are quite a bit more decisive in the attack now. They make a lot more passes instead of trying to dribble everyone and they position themselves better to receive a pass. In short, Chelsea (my team in BAL) feels like...

I just gave this patch a test run. It's simply brilliant! It just reinvents the game and makes it so much more enjoyable. @komu: Mate, you managed to do something that I thought was impossible. To tamper so extensively with the exe. First time I played PES that I didn't feel cheated. Every goal...

Which of course it does. :)

The methods you describe are correct as far as the original system is concerned. The problem is that, after complains about too frequent fouls in the demo which featured it, Konami chose to completely remove that feature and from my perspective, destroy defensive and physical play. My...

Assuming it is moddable which I very much doubt. Compared to other games PES seems to export very few options to config files (i.e. almost none) making modding difficult. PS: I don't think this is an oversight. The PC demo also didn't have -2 and -1.

Doesn't seem to work. Ball gets placed according to power, body position, etc. The usual factors. How I move the stick makes no difference in elevation.

This sounds interesting. I'm off to test it in the training mode.

What possible reason could Konami have for limiting PC users in this way...? I was really looking forward to trying the -2 setting.

I've noticed the problem with fouls in the full game as well. I'm one of those people who absolutely loved the fouls in the demo. It was one of the major features for me since these kinds of fouls are necessary to have a proper representation of physical play in the game. In the demo it was...

I just started the PC version of the game for the first time and I noticed that, like the PC demo, I can't set the game speed to -1 or -2. The only settings available are 0, +1, +2. Has anyone else had this problem?

My two cents: For starters, the new passing system is absolutely brilliant! It's one of those remarkable innovations that make you wonder how you ever managed to play football games before it. It simply sets a gold standard for the genre. Second, the fouls are very much improved this year...
