Ashes Cricket 2013

Ashes Cricket 2013
Developer: Trickstar Games Publisher: 505 Games Platform: Windows Released internationally: November 22, 2013 This game has debugging material.

Worse than Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing? You decide.

Debug Menu

To access this debug menu requires a DLL (Game_Data\Managed\Assembly-CSharp.dll) be patched using a .NET assembly patcher like Reflexil, available for a number of .NET decompilers (Reflector, JustDecompile, etc).

GameEnvironment.isRetail() in the default namespace needs to be patched to:

ldc.i4.0
ret

After saving the patched dll and overwriting the original with it, running Game.exe will make the game start in debug mode which will show debug text on loading screens and show the above debug menu when pressing the ` key in a game.

To get the focus out of the console, just click anywhere. Then you can navigate the debug menu by using the arrow keys and Enter.

Debugging

Toggle Memory Profile

Displays a (somewhat-corrupted) memory usage with the debug menu. Doesn't seem to work properly for some reason.

Dump Details

Places a lot of details in the Unity console.

Slew Mode

Enters Slew Mode. Use ESC to exit, Up/Down to increase speed, Left/Right to zoom in/out. Other functionality exists but is only mapped to Xbox 360 controller buttons, not to the keyboard.

Toggle LOD0

No visible effect.

To do: Figure out what this does.

Skipping

To do: Document this big submenu.

Simulate Innings

Self-describing name.

Force Home Team Win

As the name suggests, select this option and the home team wins.

Force Away Team Win

As the name suggests, select this option and the away team wins.

Force Draw/Tie

As the name suggests, this option forces a draw. Or a tie, use whatever term you like as the devs helpfully included both!

Achievements

This opens a submenu with what appears to be a list of achievements.

To do: Find out what happens when an achievement is selected.

Post Event

This opens a submenu with what appears to be a list of events.

To do: Find out what happens when an event is selected.

Debug Modifiers

This opens a submenu which has two options, neither of which seem to have any visible effect.

To do: Find out what the options in here do.

Debug Logging

This opens a submenu which has a number of options which can be turned on and off to log that part to the Unity console. Every option below the toggle for Network Logging does not work for some reason.

Back

This exits the debug menu and returns to the game.
