Disappearing Logos (OOTP 2007)

cprongs2 · 05-21-2008, 07:01 PM

Strange bug....

I load the logos into ootp 2007 through the team set up page. They load fine, and show on the team banner and even on the players hats.

But, then, once I've saved and quit, and then reload, they are gone.

Any suggestions?

Running on Vista BTW.

Thanks

Which version are you using, please? Is it 2.0.3.68?

Version 8.0.0.13 from the game title screen. I am actually running OOTP8, I guess I can't use those names interchangeably (vs. OOTP 2007).

A few more details - I think it has something to do with maybe changing the team name after i have loaded the logo. It seems that when I load the logo and then change the team name, it disappears the next time I start OOTP8 (more often).

Thanks

Well, default logos are named by team name. When you assign a logo to a team, I wonder how it saves that information? Does it copy the logo image to a new file that matches the team name? If so, then changing the team name would cause the logos to no longer align. Could you test this theory?

Confirmed.

When changing the team name after the logo has been loaded, the file name does not convert to the new team name and therefore the team logo will not load.

Thanks for the help, I'll have to remember to change the team name first, then load the logo.
