FREE: Uniforms and logos for 500+ teams spanning 1871-present

cephasjames · 06-10-2011, 12:43 PM

These uniforms and logos are for a quickstart that I had planned on doing which covers baseball in America with a pre-planned history starting in 1871 and proceeding until the present. It is based on real history, using real league names and historical nicknames for most teams. The major leagues are the same as real history’s major leagues (with one minor name change). The minor leagues are real historical leagues that essentially existed for about 50 years or greater.

Included with the quickstart is the pre-planned history of the universe contained in two styles, called Timeline of Change and Baseball History. Timeline of Change documents every change that needs to occur in the Off Season of every year. Baseball History is a spreadsheet that follows each individual franchise year by year.

With some exceptions (mainly in the major leagues), every city uses only one nickname throughout all of history. Another choice regarding cities is to call a team by it’s actually city name rather than a regional name like Brevard County or Minnesota.

Uniforms and logos have been created for six eras: 1871-99, 1900-24, 1925-49, 1950-74, 1975-89, 1990-Now.

All of the base jerseys were created through the in-game generator using Deft's Jersey Styles (Consolidated) v1.0, and then I used the Custom Cap & Jersey Template v3.0 by Deft and NoPepper plus bits and pieces from davwms, gern44 and others. Nothing I used to make the uniforms is originally mine.

That's all for now.

I'm not sure how soon I will have all of this done, but it won't be too long.

OmahaReynolds · 06-10-2011, 02:53 PM

Dude, this is awesome! I've always wanted to make a fictional league that evolved from 1871-Present but the making of all the uniforms and caps and logos just boggles me.

I can't wait to see more of this.

cephasjames · 06-10-2011, 05:14 PM

Thanks! When all is said and done there will be 1300+ sets of uniforms and logos. Some of them are copied and pasted into other eras, as seen above, but that's still a lot.

GiantYankee · 06-10-2011, 05:34 PM

These look great! So many possibilities for fictional leagues!

Athletics17 · 06-10-2011, 06:03 PM

Great job!!! Thank you.

Altoona Rail Kings

Amarillo Gold Sox

Asheville Tourists

The quickstart that I'm working on (its basically just waiting for me to finish the uniforms) starts in 1871. I have worked out a pre-planned history for 29 leagues, 7 major and 22 minor, that's based off of real history, that goes all the way up until 2011. It'll have both a spreadsheet and a document that will explain in detail how each and every league and team will evolve over the course of history. I've been working on it in some form or fashion for years - basically waiting for myself to work on the uniforms and logos

. I'm pretty pumped to finally be able to get it going.

Markmeister · 06-11-2011, 07:10 PM

I have to say I'm impressed. Everything looks good so far.

I've been working on plans for a quick start starting in 1871 also, but I will only have 12 leagues to start out with additioanal teams/leagues added later.

You have almost 3 times the number of leagues and 6 different logos/uniforms for some of the teams already!!!
