BigDaddyCool Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Well I've actually started exporting pictures from portraits.big using EAGraphics and I'm saving them with the TC numbers so that I can use Installer Thingy to install them in a clean file. It might take a while, but there is something very zen in all of this..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 OK, so how would I go about changing the id#'s? Would I use EAGraphics, BigGUI? What's the easiest way of pulling it off? You can assign portrait ID's in MVPEdit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stEdfuNk Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Padres should basically be the 98 padres IMO, with some substitutions, but the players that should be kept are LF-Greg Vaughn CF-Steve Finley RF-Tony Gwynn 3B-Ken Caminiti P-Kevin brown P-Andy Ashby and maybe 1B-Wally Joyner because I use to love shouting "WALLLLLLYYYYY" at the stadium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 you shoud certainly be able to do 25 players per team. at 30 teams, and 4 levels, that's 3000 players. the game will let you create 3250 players. this includes players in the FA list. and if the guys in the legends and heroes teams aren't repeats, they will also count. so at every spot filled, there should be 200 spots left open for the FA list. the HOF logo will be easy to edit. let me know what overlay you want to go with and i can add it. otherwise, are you planning on having someone make a completely new overlay for this?

BigDaddyCool Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 This is actually what I had in mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 so you're using true's fantasy overlay? i think that the logo would look better if it's a slight bit transparent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDaddyCool Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Yeah I am. I love that it's a somewhat of a generic overlay that fits in quite nicely with this mod. Love the bottom bars on it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp_hidalgo Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 I love that logo picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 now, what about having an installer for this mod. i assume you don't know how to do that, or maybe you do? might wanna try asking kraw to get involved. i know that he had recently wanted to get involved with TC. he could probably give this project a swift kick in the butt.

krawhitham Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I'll do the installer help me out here, I'm lazy and do not want to read all the pages is this project basically the 100 best players from each franchise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 yes, for the most part as jp said. but bigdaddycool will also include today's stars in it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp_hidalgo Posted May 23, 2007 Author Share Posted May 23, 2007 and that's cool, always that we include today stars like Johnny Damon, but if we are going to consider that SS from the bench in Tampa Bay... I think we have to simply put the best 100 players for each franchise (that will include lots of today ballplayers who are real stars) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 absolutely. there's gonna have to be some room for subjective judgment on these too. for instance, any mariners' fan would never consider bobby ayala as one of the best closers in mariner history by any stretch of the imagination, eventhough he ranks high up there in saves.

jp_hidalgo Posted May 23, 2007 Author Share Posted May 23, 2007 yes... about Bobby Ayala... If I had to make a votation people coul say something like this: "I hate him, but he surely is one of the best 100 Alltimers Mariners" and that's true.

Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 no i think you misunderstood about bobby ayala. he's not considered one of the best mariners in any fashion. he's one of those guys that just managed to rack up some numbers. so if you look at him statistically, he ranks high in our mediocre organization. he was one of our worst pitchers of all time, but if you put a guy in over and over again regardless of his performance, he will get the numbers racked up.

jp_hidalgo Posted May 23, 2007 Author Share Posted May 23, 2007 oh, i see, so... what should we do about him? bann him? I think we have to start to choose team by team the best 100 players... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 oh yeah i know. i'll take a closer look at putting together the mariners roster when i get a chance. but he's definitely off the roster as far as i'm concerned. i'd rather have an empty spot than have him on the team.

BigPaPa Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 well as a first step ill try to post to post a list here of every hall of famer from every team although some teams have none or almost none it be a decent start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 actually there's already a website that lists all of that. that's where these rosters are mainly based on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPaPa Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 actually there's already a website that lists all of that. that's where these rosters are mainly based on. Well post i meant put that website into an Excel sheet and make it easy to use and refer too and to put the excel sheet in this post for download so that the sheet can than be added too to make complete lists for each team i think that would help whoever is working on these rosters adn be interesting to have anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 not a bad idea then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPaPa Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 the lists im making include Hall of famer that have played for those teams and the years they played for them (AKA Wade Boggs is on Tampa Bay's List because he played one year there) So it will be up to interpretation weather or not to put someone who only played a year or two with a team on their all time list.

BigPaPa Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 One other thing i think deserves some consideration is knocking off a team like The Marlins or the D-Rays and putting in an all time Negro leagues team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 yeah, thats been in the talks. my personal take is they should be on the team they made a name for themselves. for instance, bonds is an obvious giant. randy johnson made a name for himself in seattle and arizona. being a seattle fan i'd put him on that roster, but realistically he became a HOF'er in arizona. then there's curt schilling, who could just as easily be on the sox, the astros, the phillies, or the diamondbacks. again, i'd put him in arizone because of the world series, and because of the fact that arizona doesn't have a huge history and the other teams do. roger clemens, he's a red sox guy to me regardless. that's where he was at his best. how about some more not so obvious ones: jeff nelson. could be a yankee or a mariner. he would probably personally choose yankee. how about dave winfield? could almost go anywhere, but again i'd put him in san diego because new york is rich in outfielders in their history. simply put, boggs is a red sock. the only other team you could argue for him would be the yankees because of the ring, but he's still a HOF'er as a red sock. tampa bay's going to have to be one of those organizations i mentioned earlier, where we will just have to use a lot more negro leagues and japanese players. but regardless, there should be no repeats, meaning no jose canseco on the a's, red sox, blue jays, yankees, nationals, devil rays, AND rangers. but i think JP has been keeping true to this already.
