LA Dodgers cyberfaces uploaded

Hi Rollie,

Great job on the cyberfaces.

However, I followed your instructions and when I loaded the game with LA in it it would crash into my desktop.

I experimented and copied a default model.big into the data folder and it was fine.

Maybe its something I am doing wrong....I copied the files,compressed them...The only thing that might be a bit weird is the rebuild...did that but nothing really happened except a brief moment of the hourglass icon on my mouse arrow.

Also will you be doing more faces/teams in the future....

Great work if only i can get the game to run!

make sure you compressed all the files. it should say YES if done right next to the file on the right column. scrolling down is a pain

sometimes if u don't compress them, then your game will crash whenever the cpu loads the player edited. iv'e had that happen to me testing. so always check the right column. another thing too.

not all files in biggui need to be compressed. the only files i know that might not need compression are the high res uniforms. But i had to compress a lot of other files after backing up models.big

BigGui doesn't really rebuild all that good sometimes. you have to wait awhile and there is no telling when it is done. but for me it takes about 30-45 seconds i guess. i never close the program untill the hourglass is completely done moving. so it could be that.

does your game crash when you load into the main menu? or does it crash when the actual baseball game starts? if its when the game starts then its definitely one of the graphic files being uncompressed or distorted from not rebuilding correct. if its distorted. you can check the files in Eagraph to see if they look correct. youll notice if they are distorted. then youll have to reload it back in biGUi.

hmmnn? i wonder if anyone else is having difficulties. it;s my first face pack, maybe the directions wernt clear or something,dunno.

i always back up my models.big file. i have so many mods in it.

as far as more teams. i dunno about whole teams. each cyberface takes at least an hour or two to do and test but i'm getting a lil quicker i guess. it's a long process because oedit is a pain with it vertices and zooming, selecting.

i could probably do single requests. i'm currently doing my uniform poll winners, but if their is a player u want done i could prolly do a a few.

thanx for your comments, sorry bout the crash. iv'e had that happen to me learning how to use the editing progs

Please dont apologise.....

I guess if there is no way of properly telling.

The game does only crash when I get to the game and NOT the menu.

I think I will use eagraph to look at each individual file.

Anyway I did make sure that all the files were compressed.

I had a little experience with this after figuring out how to do Kaz Matsui's cyberface mod.

Anyway I will try again.....

Actually I do have a few requests.

Especially guys with the big hair...ie pedro and manny.

Can the hair be done?

Does EA use the same graphics format as for NFL 2004 and NBA live because they did it for ricky williams and also ben wallace

thanks again

Hey Rollie,

I opened up the models.big file that I modified and looked at the individual face files and they look great...no distortion there.

CAn i then rule out the fact that it did not rebuild properly.

Also do i need to check the orl and ord files..they are there but i cant see them at all.

The faces look great by the way!

I certainly hope that it is not my computer!

u can rule out the distorion, the orl and orl filez will not show up in eagraph. Did you check in bigGui under all the loaded fsh ord orl files to see YES under the compressed tab? sometimes some filez aren't compressed. even files that wern't updated in my zip including any fxxxx.fsh and uxxxx.fsh and cxxxx.fsh. i know its a pain to scroll through em all but that copuld be the problem if its not distorting.

btw does the game load at all from the the start ie the main menu when you first lauch the game or does it crash when you actuallyplay a game aftyer youve selected your teams?

nevermind last question i just saw post. ok thats i good thing now cuz we know some graphics filez are not compressed right. not necssararily mean any of my filez but other graphic files not cimpressed from previous mod updates. check under the right tab in bigGUI.

I'm using Rolie's new cyberfaces (all of them) and not only they look awesome, but I've had no problems whatsoever with the game.

Regards,

you've gotta be patient when you rebuid...it will take about a minute or so. when it's done, it will flicker for a second and you should be able to choose any line in the program - you'll know it rebuilt sucessfully then.

I will try again.....

I did make sure that all the files were compressed BUT i have a feeling that it might be the rebuild bit. I will leave it for a minute or so....

I certainly did not wait that long......

thanks for all your help.

I will let you know how it goes....

Again about Pedro's big hair...can do you mod that?

Palwudi:

I had to wait a good 40~ seconds for the rebuilding process to be completed... and that with a P4 @ 3.6Ghz and 2GB of RAM... so pal, my advice is... be patient.

Hey Rollie,

Just so we are on the same page we are talking about Pedro Martinez right.

Anyway I have sent you some pictures of his new afro...hope that helps.

Having said that it might not so far fetched a story of Pedro signing on with the dodgers....with the payroll going way outta hand and a big number of free agents...I doubt the bosox will be able to re-sign him...will be sweet to see him in dodger white eh?

Hey Rollie...managed to get the faces to work.....!

THey are fantastic guy! Pretty neat!

Cant wait for more faces from yah!

WOW!

Palwudi,

Did you have to do anything different to get them to work? I'm having the exact same problem you are having, and I am making sure the rebuild completes. I have tried it three times, and each time it boots me out to the desktop when the actual game play starts (I am able to get into the menus). I did look at the faces in MVPEdit, and two showed up as face not available. The others looked OK.

Any other thoughts?

Hi dodger fan

i did do a few things different.

One I extracted the files each face at a time and also rebuilt it each time.

I don t think that my mistake was waiting for the rebuild to finish.

It actually takes quite little time to rebuild the files.

Also make sure that you check the files that are compressed

some of the other files do become somehow uncompressed.......which happened previously.

Always make sure that you start with the orig models.big file( copy it from the CD)so if it doesnt work you wouldnt lose all the other face/uni mods!

;)

Hope that helps....be patient I was third time lucky....trust me it is well worth the effort even if you are NOT a dodgers fan!

I was making sure I was doing the rebuild, and that the files were compressed, but I was also trying to short cut it and do them all at once. That may be where I am going wrong. I will try to do each one individually and see if that helps. I can't wait to see how they turn out (although in my world, the Kevin Brown for Jeff Weaver trade never happened. ;) )

Yeah, the first time I did lose my uniform mods, but I was thinking about dumping some of them anyway because the hi res unis slow my system down some (not working on a state of the art PC). So it just allowed me to clean things up a bit.

Rolie,

I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for your hard work, too! It really does help add to the realism of the game.

thankx all ,

it's good to know peeps like my work, it took forever to make em, since it was my first, but i know what to do now, i can make em faster i guess.

i just finished my 1914 braves unis. this week starting on the 90s reds ones now.

i'm also planning on doing Pedro Martinez cyberface. i guess i should do other bosox players while i'm at it.

as far as other teams go, i don't mind doing them, but i can use all your help because i dont know exactly what some players look like. so if want a request , please send a good pic of the player's face(s) to me.

the better the pic the better face, becuase i know what the dodger faces needed, not quite sure of other teams/players.

on deck

90's Reds Unis

Bosox faces, (depending pics by yall) (i got a good pedro one already)

Mets faces, (depending on pics too)

need yalls help for good pics to go off of.

thanx again for comments, im fatter

Rollie,

Thats pretty cool.

WIll send you as many Bosox players I feel need modding and let you have a go at them.

Just off the top of my head...Manny Ramirez needs a redo.

Just a thought...was watching the game between the Padres and the Cubs yesterday and realized that there are alot of players with hairs very similar to that of your Jared Weaver Mod....

Was the hair hard to mod...because you could apply it to Kyle Farnsworth, Todd Hollinsworth of the CUbs and Khalil Greene of the PaDRES...THEY WOULD look neat!

THanks for your great conritbutions and I cant wait for your next cyberface offering!
