Have you ever been to Bakersfield?

I'd say those unis match what the town is pretty well.

LOL not in a loooong time, family's originally from san leandro, and somehow i remember we would pass through the place visiting from texas. dust is what comes to mind when i try to recall it, i guess you're right.

ok, well looks like 12 + hours later the road version has been pretty much finished, time for a nap! actually these ugly things have grown on me. adjusted piping and finally got a decent color match so this is pretty much the way they'll look. keep in mind they went from this:

default EA version:

to this. the next installment of the major minor league update project:

thanks guys, work on the home uni begins...shouldn't as bad but still a long way off from EA's. then redhawks will finish up texas affiliates, and onto NY.

Hey rambully, I am so amazed by your work thus far on minor league jersey's. I'm so glad someone as talented as yourself is taking on the job.

I couldn't locate one central thread for all your team requests, so i'll do it here. I'd love to have the Royals affiliates done, especially the wichita wranglers as they are still using last year's uniforms. They got new uniforms and logo's this year, and EA, as always, didn't catch that. If it makes it easier, I could do some photoshop work to help you out and/or provide you with images. I'm real handy with photoshop, I just wouldn't know how to upload the images into the game.

So to sum up, it'd be great to see the Royals affiliates done, and if you'd like some help, lemme know ... thespungo@hotmail.com

Amazing, great work...sorry I couldn't find pics.

no problem i couldn't really find a pic either only one shot of 2 old guys "modeling" the new home and road unis - may have been a couple of base coaches or something. it was enough to show me the godawful colors and then i used the logo you showed me and the description you showed me as well, i was able to determine that the home and road both had "blaze" in that "def leppard" 80's metal script! thanks for the kind words guy. yes the thread are scattered around, i am really REALLY happy to see that you guys are appreciating the minor league play as well as i. it makes me happy to hear that! i would ask for a sticky, but just don't know if there is enough interest to warrant it. plus people get upset when certain projects are stickied when theirs aren't. if it continues i may ask for one anyway. i'll be right back with the list of what i will be working on upcoming. HOPEFULLY the blaze home unis will be done so i can get them uploaded by sunday. i have some tests etc. in school that are delaying it way longer than i wanted.

ok here's the priority list aka the list of most requested which i will do first then go back and finish all the other teams:

minor league affiliates A-AAA for:

1- rangers (w.i.p hopefully done mid late week)

thespungo, any and all UNEDITED pics of royal farm teams would be greatly appreciated! i prefer them unedited because i will be editing them and i need the originals -please pm me for my email address. other requesters same deal the faster i get good images, the faster the project will move. i'm almost into finals. so after the 2nd of may the project pace will really pick up. PLEASE don't post pics here. this may end up being the central thread. if you have them pm me i will gladly give you my email. enjoy guys!!!

ok this will be the central thread- i think there are enough requests to warrant it. i will keep this thread updated as each team is near completion. see list above before you throw out a request. any requests will be added to the list in order received. i will update the list after each teams affiliates are completed. after the requested unis are done i will go back and finish all unrequested ones. as mentioned i can use any pics of minor league unis for teams that are in the game only. i will not be making unis for teams who are not in the game right now. if once i am finished someone comes out w/ a roster etc. for independents- rookie leagues, etc. then maybe but, not until this project is complete. again please don't post the pics here as this is my preview/ request/ update thread. if you have the pics that i greatly need please PM me and i will be happy to give you my email so you can send them to me. again HOPEFULLY i will have the blaze home unis done by sunday and uploaded, that will leave the redhawks (texas AAA) then onto the next in line - yankees. thanks for the comments and help w/ the pics- olyrunner, gbasalmon and texasrangers13as well as sfgiants061 have been tremendous in their help. will post preview pic of each affiliate in progress so you can see where i stand, once they are finished and upoaded i will announce in the announcements thread. PLEASE if i seem to running behind, realize i have major finals coming up along with other personal deals, these will get done and progress so far is good IMO. laters folks.

releasing as each team affiliate is done my friend! so far in the download for 05 sections in uniforms we have: all seattle mariners a-aaa affiliates, rangers AA affiliate (working on rangers A affiliate in above pics - then onto AAA), also redid my toronto AA affiliate from last year (catersyard is doing the other 2). so i have a total of 5 affilates ready for download in the dowanload area. bear in mind: 90 teams x at least 2 unis per = 180+ unis. this is a one man show basically, with the exception of a few that others may do. so it's going to take some time, hence i release as they are finished.

ram, do you think you could release as something like KC did when you finish all of them? Something that installs them all at once?

to be honest right now i doubt it although i may consider it down the line once everything is finished. 2 reasons - 1- since many of these unis need to be totally redone or i may add an alternate in one of the slots (or both) i know that many would like to be able to see the jerseys in the uni select screen, so fuzzone's mvpstudio needs to be used. a standard batch file just wouldn't work for this reason (i have tried replacing uni shots for these via batch but for some reason on some minor teams it causes a crash). although for those who don't care or can't get the studio to work i always include a standard batch installer in each set. 2- and maybe most important - the file would be too huge IMO over 100 mb, that would be too taxing on the server, and there would be just too much chance of errors during the file transfer while downloading. for now we'll have to live with simply dloading each as they are finished, as i said i may explore other options once they are all completed. i appreciate the input, and do consider input as it is recieved, but, some things are better left the way they are. ok now it's time to finish these blaze home unis, i have a deadline to meet....

Idea: It would be really cool if you guys and Kccitystar could released a package, Kc's MLB unis and Your minor league unis!

nice thought again , but it won't happen in all honesty for reasons listed above. kc and i are entirely different people, two entire different time zones, schedules etc. etc. etc. besides to his credit he is much quicker than i am. add my pack to his pack and we're talking over 150mbs + for one file, not only is that way above site limits for uploads, it would just lead to file transfer disaster whether a person has broadband or dialup. again- for now they will be uploaded as each team affiliate is complete.

Okay, ram, the rain held off for yesterday's game, so I took some pictures of those visiting Grizzlies. The away uniform is interesting. Light brown with what looks like dark brown piping. The undershirts and socks are mostly dark brown, although there are some guys who were tempting me to call the fashion police with their black shirts (gasp). The batting helmets are black (gasp) with a little orange logo. It is the same logo as is on their hats, which are these gold things (see bottom photo). Here are my shots. Some of them are blurry (sorry) but others should work well to give you an idea of Fresno's new (interesting) away look:

Hope this helps - go get some sleep! :D
