[beethovenisgeilundco]

nice break :D whats the name of the music?

[beethovenisgeilundco]

@beethovenisgeilundco ok found it in the tags.

[kanadol88]

what are your table settings? professional or custom?

[JimmyTheJelly]

@kanadol88 Championship settings, everyone plays on those online.

[ionutzstelistu]

you are really good

[kanadol88]

is this game better than 8ballclub online?

[Albinario]

@kanadol88 it is 29 times better

[kanadol88]

@Albinario I downloaded this game and played a few matches against computer. It was a disaster - computer cannot play at all and even rookies can win easily

[Albinario]

@kanadol88 All computer players have different skill levels. Try playing Curly and you'll probably lose. But you should play online on Gamespy Arcade, that's the most fun.

[kanadol88]

@Albinario ok I'll try to play Curly. I also tried to play online via GameSpy but I couldn't connect

[backfliphun]

Dude!This game has freakin amazing gameplay.Specially love the real size snooker table with ball tracking.Really realistic

[dantesbuttock]

Just download this. Really addictive. At what point do you get the full-size snooker table? Do you have to unlock it or am I just missing something?

Great vid, btw. My top break is about 30, lol.

[JimmyTheJelly]

@dantesbuttock If you mean QuickPlay mode... the snooker table should be unlocked right from the beginning, press Location and it's the one at the top left called Loch Lomond. For all the other pool tables on the other hand, in order to unlock them you'd first need to finish Career mode. Based on your comment I believe you are playing snooker in Career mode? Not the best choice... because there you only get to play on pool tables. PS: You really should download GameSpy and play online instead!

[dantesbuttock]

@JimmyTheJelly ah yes I was on career mode, i didnt even think to check quickplay. found it now, many thanks. i do have gamespy installed but I'm alittle reluctant to play anyone other than the computer until I can pot more than three balls in a row, lol.

[matt926uk1]

the first song is really cool, what is it?

[abbykassh]

hopefully, they will release vp4 someday...

[SodatSobat]

i see that you're using fraction system to pot.

[bonjourr]

respect !!

[mista123420]

[hay0506]

[CalebChrisMabry]

how much do you have to pay to get this?

[JimmyTheJelly]

You can get it for free if you read video info on the right.

[Montana0000]

nice break

[sdrcxzy]

God gun!

What the version of vp3?

[JimmyTheJelly]

Latest, 3311.

[DjViViDuk]

Alin!! nice break but mate.. how the hell can you make long shots tougher! you would need an instrument that measured lens movement and simulate depth of feild!! that sasking way too much and a bogus reason to diss the game.

You forget your gifted, theres onyl a handfull of players that make sizable breaks often.. and then 100's are still very rare!

Peace buddy

Hi; thanks. I think the best way would be to introduce the snooker NAP EFFECT, which is a very important aspect on a real table yet it completely lacks in VP3 snooker. It would definitely help against slowrolling long shots, the kind of pots I hate here because they're way too easy and I see them made all the time online; not realistic at all, just boring. It makes it very easy for great potters with no positional skills to make high breaks; and it also kills the good tactical play required irl.

[abbykassh]

Hi.. I was thinking of the exact same thing a while back, while playing vp3 .... Do you have any tips on how to pot those balls in real life, i miss many of my shots because of no knowledge of this, the angle is perfect, only the nap effect... I am just an amateur, nd my average break is 20, nd highest 35 or 40.... in vp3 i have done breaks of 60s many times.. also, don't you think that the new version of vp3 has been made easier? opponents are also not too tough...

[JimmyTheJelly]

I don't know much about opponents in the new version. I don't play it offline.

[JimmyTheJelly]

Tips about long shots on a real table? If you say your aim is good and the angle is perfect, next very important thing is the speed control. Don't slowroll them like in VP3, that doesn't work; chances that the cueball deviates from its natural path are too high due to the nap effect. The deviation itself is very small, but on long shots it becomes essential. If you noticed, pro snooker players never slowroll long shots, they all know it's much harder to pot that way. Always use a bit more power.

[Jomppa80]

whats your highest break in real life?

[JimmyTheJelly]

Only 62; still improving.

[Albinario]

class!

[JimmyTheJelly]

Thanks! It's 102 now.

[Niksana951]

if u have some other centuries can u upload them :?

[JimmyTheJelly]

I haven't recorded others so far. VP3 doesn't run perfectly smoothly while recording with Fraps, so it's pretty tough to play then because of the bad framerate; that's why I don't have too many 1st Person vids yet. But you should subscribe to my videos, then you will be notified when I upload another one.

[Albinario]

Nice shot at 0:20
