Independant League Project
I've started working on assembling info, logos, jersey, hat and ballpark images to create Independant League templates for 2007. My most complete league thus far is the Frontier League, but I also am working on the American Asscociation, Atlantic and northern Leagues.
One thing I'm having a small issue with is ballparks. While I have some good shots of some of the Frontier Parks, most of the Independant ballparks have lousy or non-existant photos. Can anyone help dig these up or point me to good sources. Also, in trying to assemble logos and such for the players jerseys and hats. I was wondering, apart from the size requirements if there's anything I need to know about creating these logos. Do they also need ot PNGs with the black alpha channel? Do I need to make Jersey templates or let the game works it's magic? Jonah, are you working from a template to create your example players or is that all FaceGen? |

A few years ago I went through a lot of tedious work to try to find images if indy ballparks. I collected a lot of them and got them sized for OOTP (version 6, I think). Somewhere along the line, I lost them. I had them in a zipped file, ready to be used, but they seem to have floated off into the digital abyss, probably when I got a new computer. Anyway, I'll try looking for them when I get a chance, and upload what I have, which was incomplete but at least something.
IIRC, the main way I got images was: 1. Find out a team's home stadium. 2. Do a Google image search for the stadium name. 3. If nothing good there, do a regular Google search for it and look at some pages that come up (sometimes good images, for whatever reason, don't come up in the image search but come up when you go to a page). Doing this for each team was a chore, but I found a lot of them. I didn't always get the best angle for the view (usually taken too close to ground level), but it was something.
