SoFlaFish Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 She's working like a charm now. I hadn't run the SavReader again since I played my first game of the season, so it was reading the empty stats of 2006 and inputing the 2005 stats in their place. Now that I've run the SavReader everything is fine. When is the ESPN-style boxscore going to be ready? I love the program but the combination of season stats and game stats in the boxscore can be quite confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the program but the combination of season stats and game stats in the boxscore can be quite confusing. I still need to do the extra stats beneath the pitching table. Then I need to do the home team (which will be a copy and paste job, with a little renaming), and then the game log. Then I need to add in the option to choose between the layouts.

Go to the actual ESPN.com boxscores, put your cursor over the "logo" in the boxscore, right click, click on "save as" and put the logo (name it FLA.gif or HOU.gif or NYY.gif) in a Logo folder you create.

snepp Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Probably a bit late for this. Is it possible to show an expanded pitch count under the additional pitching information? Would be similar to how it is displayed on the MLB.com boxscores, but mixed with Kraw's layout. Kraw's example boxscore, with the "Pitches-strikes" addition: http://sio.midco.net/mvpbaseball/examplebox/examplebox.htm Feel free to kick me if I missed this being asked about on one of the previous pages.

MarkB Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 If this can be done, an inning-by-inning pitch count would also be a nice feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vas100 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Hey, guys, could you please help me. It was OK previously, but now I can't get out of the game neither with ALT+TAB nor with CTRL+ALT+DEL. It does not work within the game and when the game is finished when I want to get out and run BOXSCOREEXTRACTOR. However, ALT+TAB or CTRL+ALT+DEL works when I'm in dynasty menu and in after game menu (where the bix boxscore is on the top and big buttons: DONE in the bottom right ad BOXSCORE in the bottom left). Probably its not the game issue but anyway please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkB Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 \ said: Would you want that in the game log in the inning summary? Yeah, that could be cool. "0 runs, 0 hits, 0 errors. Pitches thrown: 14." Something like that? Although it might have to be split if the pitcher is replaced mid-inning...which I just remembered can't be done. A few brainstorms on the latest version from the 31st (hadn't tried it until just now): The new boxscore.css file is good. I like the grey. At the end of the file, there was a final line of "0 runs 0 hits" after the top of the 9th. The home team was leading, hence, no bottom of the 9th. I'm assuming that's what's caused the extra linescore to be added. EDIT - See here. As I was discussing wind earlier, this came into my head while playing. Could the wind speed and direction be grabbed from memory as well and placed in the output page? Maybe an extended information section with wind speed and direction, location of game (if the active stadium is yankday.big, for example, it could display just Yankee Stadium - 1:05pm, or if it's night, Yankee Stadium - 7:05pm. Or, if you don't want to create all the necessary IF statements (I know I wouldn't ), even just the stadium name, then the user can amend it later. When outputting, I was slightly confused with the X and H idea. I tried inputting "XH" to represent an exhibition game with the home stats, but got the pre-programmed error, so it meant loading the program twice. How about a variable, so that various options could be selected in one shot, so, for example, XHKY would result in an exhibition game, home stats page, krawhitham's layout and player links to MVPSavReader, while XRNN would result in an exhibition game, road stats page, neojonas' layout and no player links. In a few cases, I'll insert a bench player to pinch-run for my catcher, if he gets on base. With the latest build, it shows the starting catcher, then the replacement catcher (nice indent ) as the PH. Could the pinch-runner be shown between both to represent him in some way, possibly listing him as the PH and leaving his batting stats blank as he didn't have an at-bat? Could the player's fielding positions be shown in the Fielding section as well as, or instead of, in the batting section, and maybe sorted in some way? Could errors be added to the half-inning linescores, and the titles of the half-innings bolded? That's enough, for now. Thanks! EDIT - Also, the new pitching columnwith boxscore.css seems rather thin - Hughes' had to stretch to fit it, as you can see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you need "XH" ? The X option lets you choose the filename. The H option just uses the hometeaminitials and the gamenumber for the hometeam as the filename, and makes the links go to the correct filename. I was thinking of adding an additional option. The new option would allow you to choose the filename, as well as the filenames for the previous and the next links. Would you be interested in this? I wasn't planning on having links optional, but I guess I could. Quote In a few cases, I'll insert a bench player to pinch-run for my catcher, if he gets on base.

I don't think I can show this. If you just use a player as a pinch runner, they don't show up in the list of batters, so there is no way to determine who they pinch ran for. Quote Could the player's fielding positions be shown in the Fielding section as well as, or instead of, in the batting section, and maybe sorted in some way? I don't think I'll remove it from the the batting section. But, I could do the rest. (right now they are in order by roster spot) Quote Could errors be added to the half-inning linescores, and the titles of the half-innings bolded? I can add errors to the half-inning linescores. I did the html for the game log, because I forgot to ask neojonas to do it earlier. See if you like how the game log is in neojonas's updated layout: http://www.microtracesolutions.com/boxscore/boxscore.htm Quote That's enough, for now. Thanks! I think I responded to all of those. I will probably release another latestbuild before I go to bed. I will not implement any of your suggestions yet, (except for fixing the bottom half of the 9th inning thing) Kraw's layout is nearly complete.

tywiggins Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 MarkB, I just realized (again) that I really can't do errors in the inning summary. The only errors that I could count are when a player reaches base on an error. I can't do an accurate error count, so there is no point in including them.
