Graphics for Ballparks

littlechris1977 · 10-26-2004, 04:35 PM

I downloaded some fictional parks and tried to install them into the game. However, when I play a game using one of the new parks the image is just blackwith all the player boxes all over it. Can someone help with this issue:?

The fictional parks need to go into specific folders inside the graphics folder. for example my park set needs to go into \graphics\ctc . The path should be in a readme that came with the park pack. If you put the park.dat and parkconfig.dat into the league folder then you can open up the league options and click on stadium editor, on that screen you will see the name of the picture and the path should be listed in the name. If there is no path then it goes into the main \graphics folder. Again to use one of mine it will say ctc\kraft.bmp to let you know it should be in the \graphics\ctc folder.

Hope this helps and if you need anymore help please let me know.

Ok, I figured out what I was doing wrong (had to convert all images to .bmp). I now need to know how to assign a different park to each team in my custom league. There isn't a button to change all teams to human manager like in other leagues i've imported. Is there a number or something I can change to assign. Basically now I am only use one park as home park for all teams.

Go into the Team Setup page of each team and you can select a stadium for the team.

I found this to be a very helpful thread for installing stadiums, logos and photos:

IT will not let me choose a stadium for each team from the team setup menu. I can click the button but nothing happens. I think it may be because each team is computer controlled or something, not sure.

are you in Manager Mode? If you are you need to shut it off to make the changes. If you cant shut it off I belive Pierre has a utility that will allow you to make the changes.

How do you shut off manager mode? Would I loose by status as a manager of the team I selected. Can it be shut off and then turned back on?

You might get a quicker answer if you posted this on the Mods Forum...or maybe send Pierre a PM or e-mail.

Thanks for the help I fixed everything the way I wanted it. I just restarted my season and didn't create a new manager profile until I assigned stadiums to each team.

A little more than halfway down the page is old timer's Manager Mode editor.
