capa Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I broke down the current TC2 team list and took a look at the teams AlexTony listed as being done for TC3, and it appears we do not have good representation for the following teams/eras: Braves: pre-1957 (were Boston Braves in NL up to 1952) Orioles: pre-1964 (were St Louis in AL up to 1953) and post 1970 White Sox: post 1965 Reds: pre-1961 (and they go all the way back to 1882!) Royals: post 1977 Pirates: post 1979 Devil Rays: UGH...none at all (should there be??) Rangers: post 1974 Blue Jays: pre-1992 All other teams have a fair representation across the decades. Maybe a few only have one or two teams, but most have 3 or 4 entries across the past 100 years. C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexTony Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 man Capa, I did the same thing without looking at the post. also, here is a list of the decades and amount of teams represented: 1900 - 1919 11 1920 - 1929 4 1930 - 1939 3 1940 - 1949 7 1950 - 1959 5 1960 - 1969 26 1970 - 1979 13 1980 - 1989 13 1990 ^ 9 there were simply not as many of the earlier teams: 1900 - 1959, eight teams per league, 16 total and we have most of the key players on one team or another. they are also the hardest to find pics for the 60's are very well represented with 26 clubs so i have been trying to concentrate 'mainly' on the 70's -80's and a few 90's. as most playing the game can identify with those teams pretty well. getting help from jewgrass and hopefully we can rap this part (team rosters) by month's end. i will seek to find a few more rosters from some capable people who may have a few that can be put in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capa Posted May 20, 2005 Author Share Posted May 20, 2005 That's funny! I see we are on the same page. I have been hoping to set up like 3 distinct and separate leagues: 1900-1949 1950-1979 1980-present or something along those lines. It is almost impossible to do though, especiall for the first set due to the old league structure of 8 or 16 teams. The game makes you have 30 team leagues which ruins it for any kind of pre-modern day era league setup. Now that's one mod I would pay for! Create your own league structure. Also critical to an exercise like this is the ability to rename teams and reassign uniforms. I think Fuzz's editor allows for the unis, but no way to rename/move teams to new franchises - like using the 55 Dodgers in Colorado's slot, etc... I was hoping Fuzz would release an updated Studio version of his work last year which allowed us to do all that, but I don't think that is happening.

jewgrass Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I can do more rosters if you guys want. I'm quite anal and like to have all the appearances and stances right, which is why I took so long on the 93 Phillies. But if that is secondary, I'd be happy to do some of the older teams. Thanks to MLB All Access most of these teams have archived games, so getting the stances/deliveries right is easy for the majority of the players. I wish Peter Bernard would get back to me, I'd love to get him to do some more faces for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capa Posted May 20, 2005 Author Share Posted May 20, 2005 You know, another big possibility in all this is Stecropper (Don). I know he is working on literally hundreds of teams as he is trying to do a complete 60's and 70's set...not sure about other decades. he may be able to offer up quite a few clubs to fill in the blanks.

Check out my first post...if there are any teams you can do that pertain to those first 3 or 4 teams in the post for the "missing" years, that would be great!

jewgrass Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I'll have a couple more teams done by the end of the weekend, then I'll look into doing some of those older teams. Ideally I'd like to get some pre-1900 teams in, but I don't know if anyone can find pics and/or uniforms... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if we can get more teams post 1980 for these, it would be good: Orioles WhiteSox Royals Pirates Rangers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 I just noticed that Cal Ripken has not made it into Total Classics yet. The 1983 Orioles (Ripken was AL MVP and Baltimore won the World Series) might be a good team to add. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewgrass Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 I'm working on the 83 Orioles right now. As well as the 91 Twins and 64 Cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right -- I forgot you mentioned that in the Phase 3 W.I.P. thread. Alex Tony has already sent me your '93 Phillies .met file along with a portrait set for them.

HardcoreLegend Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I haven't been around in awhile, sorry about that, it's a busy time for me right now. However, before I took my 'break' I was working on '92 Pirates uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
