File Name: Updated text file for DonSPa unis File Submitter: DonSPa File Submitted: 19 Apr 2012 File Category: Uniforms and Accessories This text file is only for those who have downloaded my unis.When i did unis i had to use uniform slots for the minor leagues until i finished all my unis,and this would crash the game for anyone who played minor league games.I used this file to put the unis in the unused slots and was able to get them all but the yankees reverse negative because i ran out of empty slots. When i do a text file for the negro league unis ill add it to that Just open any roster file with tys editor and import this text file.U should be able to play using my unis and also be able to play minor league games now Click here to download this file

the bad part is if ozzie had made remarks against america the same people probally would have said 'o well thats ozzies oppinion and is his right to say so,and hes allowed but instead he said he liked someone that we dont and its an instant media thing

Open Tys editor and import the info from the text file included.These unis will have the correct color codes.Start tys editor open the roster that u want to install the unis to. Click on the uni tab then click on import.When the window open sup find wherever u have the text file located at ,clikc the text file and open this will install the unis into game with the colors Normal Install instructions WARNING BACK UP ORIGINAL FILES as these will overwrite the originals.Unzip into the main mlb2k12 folder.Start game these will NOT have the correct color codes because of the way 2k does their files Generic Mod Enabler(use the files in the normal install) This is the best way for those who dont have tys editor and dont want to over write the originals. Download from http://www.users.on.net/~jscones/software/products-jsgme.html and follow thier directions.Once installed there should be a folder called *MODS* Inside this folder u can create another folder.For example if u just want national league modded unis name a folder NATIONAL LEAGUE and place my unzipped uni files inside this folder.Start the enabler and choose the folder that has the mods then start the game and the unis should be available.If u want to revert back to the originals then just shut down the enabler again these will not have the correct color codes After 2 years of dissapointing attendance in Baltimore and the defection of John McGraw to the national league the time was right to transfer the Orioles team to NY. On April 8 1903 the NY Americansor Highlanders played thier first game at Hilltop Park.Again they wore normal unis for this time of the era.White and Black were the trim colors.White cap with black stripes down the seams,black stockings and large black shirt collar.A large black N and Y on the right and left breast.The road jersey was the reverse image.For 1904 the same design stayed but the color changed from black to dark blue.For 1905 the NY was merged changed to a monogram on the left breast. In 1909 new uniforms incorporated new features,red stripes on navy blue socks and the now legendary Yankee monogram made its first appearance on the cap and left sleeve.By this time the new nickname "Yankees" was now used as often as the "Highlanders" and was only a few years away from become the official name.In 1911 another significant feature appeared on the road uni as the city name appeared on the greys. 1912 was the last year to be played at Hilltop Park(which was the inspiration for the name"Highlanders" By this time though the name yankees was was more or less the official name and other feature was introduced ,yes u got "PINSTRIPES".A myth that had been the Yankees wer the first to use pinstripes but is untru as a few teams had allready used them in MLB. Another myth was owner Col Jacob Ruppert selected pinstripes to offset the huge appearance of George Herman Ruth but when the first yankee wore pinstripes"the Babe" was still in an orphanage and Babe didnt wear a Yankee uniform until 1920.1923 marked the opening of Yankee stadium and nicknamed "the house that Ruth built".In 1927 the team was considered to be the mightiest of all time.The road had capital"NEW YORK" with "YANKEES" as the home uni.This uni lasted until 1930.But a year earlier the Yankees established a precedent by being the first team to put numbers on the back of thier uniforms.This caught on fast and became a standard for all teams by 1932.For all the years that Babe Ruth played for the Yankees he never wore the uniform that u see today.The uniform u see now became the permanent style in 1936,the year after Babe left the Yankees. The year that things almost changed. From 1936 to the current 2012 uniform the Yankees have never changed thier uniform(not counting patches that were worn for special occasions) BUUUUUT in 1974 that almost changed.Most fans are not aware that the Yankees almost changed tradition of road greys in 1974.Former PR director Marty Appel wrote a book in 2001 called"Now pitching for the Yankees" and this is a following passage from that book "In 1974 I walked into [then-general manager] Gabe Paul's office to find samples of new Yankee road uniforms draped across his sofa. They were the opposite of the home pinstripes -- they were navy blue with white pinstripes. The NY logo was in white. Gabe liked them. I nearly fainted. ... I think my dramatic disdain helped save the day and saved the Yankees from wearing those awful pajamas on the field." In an interview Marty was asked what he had said to Gabe Paul and Marty replyed: I said something like, "Oh my God, you're not seriously considering this, are you? This would be a disaster!" Because, you know, the gray "New York" jersey is iconic in its own right. so NY fans were saved from this disaster and everyone was saved from having severe eye strain the following files represent the 1905 and 1910 Highlanders and the 1974 unused Yankees.The files are the home away and cl1 iff's Click here to download this file

Thier long history of uniforms is very interesting. Charles Comiskey transfered his "Western League St Paul"franchise to the hallowed NL territory of Chicago for the 1900 season.The Chicago Nationals felt only mildly threatened by the competition since the renamed "American League" was still a minor league.The newcomers played thier games on the distant southside of town.Comiskey agreed not to display the city name "Chicago" on his uniforms but adopted the abandoned name "White Stockings" from the early dynasty of the NL Chicagoeans.The invaders promptly won the AL pennant in 1900 and league president Ben Johnson boldly declared that the AL was now a major league for the 1901 season.Comiskys first ML uniforms were standard white and grey with a large square maroon "C" on the left breast and of course white stockings. Since the west side team were strictly second division chicago fans started paying more attention to the south siders.They repeated the same home uni but Comiskey reneged on his word(it was all out war by now)he displayed the city name on his all dark blue road unis.The league and the franchise were in the windy city to stay. For 1903 some interesting changes were displayed as the white stockings became a blue with a 4 inch wide white band.In June 1910 the White Sox played thier last game at south side park and opened in thier new baseball palace Comiskey Park. In 1912 the teams best known emblem design in teams history was first displayed on the uniform.The large "S" encircling a small "O" and "X" was positioned on the left breast. After a 2nd place finish in 1916 the Sox were once again a solid contender.By 1917 the home unis had standardized the team insignia and pinstripes.a small american flag wasworn on the left sleeve to symbolize baseballs support for the war effort.The'17' road uni took a bizzare reverse pinstripes with white stripes on solid blue fabric. Sure enough they won the pennant and showed up to the "17" world series against John McGraws Giants in a specially designed star spangled red white and blue variation of thier home unis.Even the sacred tradition of all white socks was temporaily violated with a red white and blue stripe.They came dressed for a cotume party and left with a world championship. Those unis were retired from game use but came to symbolize the most glorious moment in White Sox history.The Boston RedSox were Chicagos chief rivals for supremacy in 1918 and reclaimed th AL championship.The WSox stumbled badly to under .500. The 1918 unis added a feature the "Sox" emblem by adding small white sock silhouettes inside the "S".This was the first time a pictorial symbol of the team nickname portrayed on game uniforms. In 1919 the team s magic returned as they again met in the world series with the Cincinnati Reds.The Sox lost but was under a cloud of suspicion and rumors as a rsult in the infamous "Black Sox" scandal and the WSox dynasty was dismantled by cimmisioner Landis. In the 1930s decade it spelled double depression for the WSox as economic hard times and the team continued its seemingly permanent residence to the basement of the AL ladder.A few stars like Luke Appling and Ted lyons helped brighten the gloom somewhat 1932 introduced a new look for the Sox in fact they had 2 versions.The primary design featured the arrangement of the "SOX" intertwined diagonally with a baseball and bat worked into the design.The letters were red with a blue outline and the bat was yellow. This uniform stayed for the next 4 years and was featured in the first "All Star" game at comiskey park in 1933.The Allstar game was initiated by Arch Ward who was a sports editor for the "Chicago Tribune".It was to coincide with the citys century of progress exposition.Ward had the novel idea of a single game made up of the games most exciting group of baseball players ever assembled.And by the 1930's baseball was by now established as "Americas favorite pastime" and the exposition was a perfect time to provide the "perfect"stage to introduce baseballs best to the rest of the country. Many didnt even believe that a contest of this magnitude would even live up to the fans expectations,especially to those who in the far west states had never seen a major league baseball game. In 1933 and 1934 the teams were selected by managers and fans.The NL manager was chosen was John McGraw and the AL manager was Connie Mack.They led players such as Lou Gehrig,Jimmie Foxx,Al simmons and the one and only Babe Ruth. "We wanted to see Babe" said Bill Hallahan the NL starter."Sure hes old and a big waistline but that doesnt make a difference,we were on the same field as Babe Ruth" With fellow allstar Charlie Gehringer on first in the bottom of the 3rd,the Babe drove one into the right feild stands,the first homer in all star history.The crowd according to one account"roared in acclamation" and the first allstar was won by the AL on the strength of Ruths homer and so the All star game was anresounding success. And the attendance of the game was 49,200 people to prove that this special moment in "Americas game" that expectations would be met. The Sox went thru so many different uniform styles thru the years,from pinstripes,reds blues, black,zippers ,button ups etc.Probally the most confusing time of Sox unis is during the 1969 season.The sox were going with the traditional grey but with blue pinstriping, and white lettering and numbers.It was approved but with the advent of colored TV and major league braodcasts were in "technicolor"the blue on grey did not show up well. Most uniform books and sites show the grey but on the baseball cards and some pics they show the powder blue style thats the white sox decided to go with,royal blue lettering and numbers were used and so these showed up much better.In 1976 Bill Veeck who was an inovater of so many bizzare ideas ,gave an idea which just for some reason never caught on.He decided one day and said "hey why dont we wear shorts" Not sure why it didnt catch on but my guess is the players just was not thrilled with the turf burns from the sliding effect or what.I think this idea lasted maybe 1 or 2 games. These unis they wore for the 6 years(shorts not included though)They had 4 different unis during this run.2 home versions and 2 road versions, The home ones were all white for 1 with dark navy"Chicago",navy cap with a white"sox" navy stripe down the leg and navy undershirt,But for my uniform files i had to go with undershirts to see the v neck style on the jerseys.They also had huge navy collars.The alt white the only difference is they used navy blue pants.The road jerseys were the opposite. All navy uni with white lettering n numbers,only the all navy road had a white cap and navy bill. The other road uni had all navy cap and white pants IF U USE THE MOD ENABLER U WILL WANT TO MAKE A SECOND FOLDER to place these in or they will over write the first set i did the following files represent the 1969,1971 home and away,1976 home away and 2 alternates,and the 1987 and the files are all of the whitsox iff's Click here to download this file

are u from the site that does the total patch thing???if so thank u for sharing this work here on mvpmods

Im sure if u did a search that there should be a list of rosters somewhere.Theres not a wide variety of info especially on unis.Theres very little to go on.Here within the next couple days ill be adding some negro league unis to be available.But as far as rosters thats something that needs to be researched more

we went thru this crap last year,the patch itself may be urs but on ur site u added files from this site without asking and also without giving credit to the people who actually created the mods u said in ur post if u needed our works u would request our agreement but yet last year u did not do this did u ask Ds to use his files???no but they were on ur site did u ask bsu to use his no fakes roster??no but it was on ur site did u ask me for my unis.or pena for his files NO but they were on ur site,i could keep going on but this should be enough to get my point across because theres others on this site who can be mentioned that also have done great and hard work,do the honorable thing give credit where it is needed and this subject should end with peace between all

ur quite welcome

open tys editor and open whatever roster u want to add the uni. go to the uniform tab ok lets say the uniform u want to add u want to add it to slot #433 scroll down to that slot put a check into the box beside it at the top u will now see iowa cubs click on the down arrow u can now xhoose whatever team u want to assign to that slot lets say the braves scroll up and choose braves now after that theres a box at the very top that is where u want to name ur file u will want to name it something like uniform_atb_home_2012.iff or any other name after the home_ for me i add the year of uni that i work on just make sure u have the .iff at the very end of the file name once u are done change the colors etc that u want to make ur uni, or if u want a number on the back of ur helmet make sure theres an check there. when u are done just save ur work if u want to make a text file of ur work click in export and name ur color file

looks good DS

yeah thats the downfall is u would have to import for every roster file,the mod enabler is a great but the downfall for that is u wont get the right colors.This is where 2k made a mess and gave uniform modders a headache 2k9 and 10 u could make color changes to the numbers and names and last year they had the bright idea"hey lets mask the colors" lol I looked at the free spaces and the cool base spaces and i may be able to fit all into these and make 1 text file but when i start on the negro league unis there wont be enough space so I may have to make a seperate text file just for the negro leagues oh and yes the editor redirects the file names thru the text file same as the info for like numbers on the shoulder or on the back of the helmet etc.Ty really came thru when he cracked this info

no i rename mine and they dont overwrite thats the purpose of tys editor so that u can keep the original and modded unis,thats what the import button is for.If u put my files in the folder and dont import them then they wont show up in game.Without this option then the only other option is to use the generic mod enabler.If u have ever downloaded my unis u will notice i have 2 folders one for those that dont have tys editor and those that do The ones who dont use tys editor wont see the updated colors for the names and numbers

There have been alot of people asking about how to install modded uniforms and the text files for the colors.When u download any unis just unzip the files into the main mlb 2k12 main folder.They shouldnt overwrite any files because most rename thier files. Start tys editor(if u dont have it u can find it here on site)Open up whatever roster that u want to install the uniforms to. Then go to the uniform tab on tys roster.Click on the "IMPORT" button. A new window will open ,look for the uniform text file of the uniform u are installing , click on that text file and then click on the "Open" button a lil pop uip will open that says "uniform information has been imported" Close it out and start the game up and u should now have a choice to choose the new uniforms and thier correct colors that the individual modders used. I wanna point out with my unis,IF you play minor league games then u will wanna have 2 copies of the roster files.The reason is because at the moment I have so many modded unis that i used the minor league uniform spots until i finish my project.Once finished ill take a count and see if i have enough space with the free spaces and the spaces thats used for the cool base and see if i can fit all unis into these spots and reupload a text file or make a national league only and american league only text files.Hopefully i can fit them all without having to split the leagues
