Custom Title Belts not showing up in game

[aurelio94118]

I cannot get custom Title Belts for Organizations I created to show up in the game.

I put them in the :\user\<logon name>\Documents\OOTPD\TBCB 2.5\Images\Titlebelts folder where the original belts were.

I deleted the old belts and gave the new belts the exact same name. However, the old ones, which are just blank generic belts, keep showing up on the Organization screen in the game even though I deleted them.

I have tried .jpg, .png and .bmp files. The size is 300 x 225 like the old ones. However, the game is not recognizing them.

Any advice?

You don't always have to delete the generic belts just put a number behind it so that it would appear second, behind your custom pictured belt. For example, lets take the WBA. Name the generic belt WBA22, and name your custom belt WBA! I always use an apostrophe after the picture that I deem the best because it ensures that that picture will be the primary, or the one that shows up first when you go to the specific page. This comes in handy, especially with fighters because there are so many pictures of say, a Mike Tyson. I would label it Tyson_Mike! then Tyson_Mike1, Tyson_Mike2, Tyson_Mike3, .....Tyson_Mike99, etc. Hope this helps.

I should also add that I am using Vista 64-bit if that matters.

The new fighter photos and venues I added work great.

The Ring Card Girls I added to ...Images\Ringcardgirls are not showing up in the game.

Only about one-third of the new Announcers I added are showing up in the game.

Could you clarify what you mean by 'not showing up in the game' means? Does that mean that the generic, blurred ring card picture is showing up, or is there a pop-up that tells you it is unable to recognize the photo? Because it could be a couple of issues, improper labeling of the photo to the folder compared with the name in the tab, the photo file type will not work, or the picture is being saved to the wrong area. Not sure about the type of program you are using. Sorry if I am confused, but am trying to help...I know I needed help from long-time forum members when I got started and was having problems.

I wonder if he could be putting them in the 'shaddow' directory that gets loaded in Programs rather than in the My Documents chain?

In Vista 64, my images are in:

:\users\<my logon>\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\Title Bout Championship Boxing 2.5\Images

I downloaded some ring card girl photos and put them in:

:\users\<my logon>\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\Title Bout Championship Boxing 2.5\Images\RingCardGirls

When I run the game and try to select a ring card girl, I do not see any of the new ones I added to the above folder, there only the 3 that come with the game.

I downloaded some announcer photos and put them in:

:\users\<my logon>\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\Title Bout Championship Boxing 2.5\Images\Announcers

When I run the game and try to select an announcer, I only see about one-third of the ones I added.

I added fighter photos and venue photos to the appropriate Images folders and they worked great so I can't understand why the ring card girls and all of the announcers are not recognized by the program.

Thanks for your time.

Oh - the game will not pick up the names from the photos. You need to go into the ring card girls tab and enter those for whom you have loaded a corresponding photo. Then it should work.

Thanks so much.

That works great for new ring card girls and announcers.

Now, all I need to do is figure out how to get the program to recognize my custom title belts for organizations that I created. I named the title belts the same as the organizations, but I keep getting blank generic title belts on the Organization Screen. I tried creating the title belts first, then creating the organizations to match them, but I still get blank generic title belts.

I resolved the problem with custom title belts not showing up on the Organization screen for orgs I created. I had spaces in the name of the organization and title belt files. I took out the spaces and it works fine.

I had an org named RM - MBA that would not display the title belt image of the same name. I changed the names to MBAR, and now it works.

You can keep your original name, just make sure you go into your title belts folder and name it like this: RM_-_MBA. You have to account for the spaces in certain titles. For instance, Bellagio Resort & Casino. You would have to put the _ between Resort Casino and not the actual &.
