Problem with installing logos

Eugene Church · 05-20-2003, 05:12 PM

Several days ago I asked for help to download logos.

No response...so I tried it myself...computer challengedly.

I downloaded logos from Tresclub.com and got them to my desktop...the unzipped them to "c:\program files\ootp5\major leagues.lg\logos" using Winzip.

The logos are in the "logos" folder. I can open it and see them.

But they are not on the "team setup" screen.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Are the .jpg, or .bmp (for example, logo1.jpg, or logo1.bmp)? If they're .jpg, you'll need to convert them to .bmp.

the only logos I spotted were the button logos.

if they are the button logos, you have to do 2 things - convert them to bitmaps, and changing their name to the convention to logo1...logo2...etc.

before I go into big detail on the process (not as hard as it sounds), lets make sure that's the set you downloaded.

Found my problem.

I had put the logos in the "ootp5" folder.

However, I should have extracted it to the "400 Studio Software"
folder.

That the folder name assigned by the game when I bought it.
That's where the game was looking for the logos.

Everything works fine now.

Thanks to Draft Dodger and dbacks for your offers to help.

Now I will attempt to download stadiums.

Wish me luck.
