fizzjob Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Those look really nice - a couple of technical things, though: 1) The helmet logo is way too big. It also needs to be squished horizontally, or it will look really tall and skinny in-game. 2) The cap logo needs to be on the other side (above the blank red area).

miatafreak Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 This is SO much easier than making jerseys for the EA NHL series. My cresting doesn't have to be amazingly detailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thespungo Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Does that hat map out correctly in-game? I heard it wasn't possible, could you post up a screenshot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miatafreak Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 I can't . My game isn't here yet, I bought it on EBAY on Saturday. If some one else wants to they can. Why wouldn't it map right? Could I put it on 2004? If so how? (Newb to MVP modding) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard from another jersey maker that the spring hats didn't map right in-game. I'd love to see a screenshot proving him wrong, however...

I assume that was KC? Because I didn't see the stripe in his last release so I'm not sure whether it's possible either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Blues Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Well, to my way of thinking, it should be able to work, but I'm sure said modder is correct. I'll test it out later to find out how it's actually mapped though. But take this into account: the "bowl" of a cap has six sections...two on the front, two in the back, one on each side. When you break down the .bmp, the bottom left half is half of the top of the bill (I found this out when I was making my Pilots unis...I only used one branch on it, and it mirrored for the other side), the bottom right is the bottom of the bill, and the top right half is obviously the front two segments of the cap. The question is how do the top left segments map and mirror? There are four segments left that those two in the .bmp map out to. Is the far left segment mirrored for the left side and back, or do both segments combine for one side and back, and then get mirrored? I'll definitely play around with it and see what's what.

fizzjob Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Well, here's how the one that got posted looks, just so you know. See what I mean about the cap logo being all tall and skinny? Same thing goes for the batting helmet. Sox fans helping out Cubs fans, what's the world coming to? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miatafreak Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 Is there a 6 pannel temp that would work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Unit Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 The MLB finally got too creative...they probably made that design on purpose! BOO! Maybe half of the stripe would do some justice for Spring Training hats, it wouldn't be the end of the world and better than nothing on the hat if you ask me...

Royal Blues Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Yeah, what fizz is trying to say is, when you resize the logo for the cap and helmet, squash it down, don't keep the proportions constrained. You'll want the logo to be about 150% wider than it is tall, if that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miatafreak Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 What I don't like is how all the uniforms are basically the same except for colors and logos. I hope the NHL EDGE jerseys don't end up like that next year. Any ideas on another jersey I should make, preferrably Cubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Blues Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Is there a 6 pannel temp that would work? Unfortunately, no. We'd have to figure out the wire mapping in order to make new templates, which isn't doable at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thespungo Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Yeah, KC decided it wasn't possible, so I took that as fact. And I didn't think that hat would map out just from the looks of it, so thanks for confirming that fact Fizzjob. Also, post back the results you get Blues, I hope you can work something out with these stupid hats. And were you talking about the Wichita Pilots? If so, we should compare work...

ChicagoCubs720 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Unfortunately, no. We'd have to figure out the wire mapping in order to make new templates, which isn't doable at this point. i don't think this is to far out of the realm of posibility. As KC and gamebase showed us all, there is a way to edit 3D player models in OEdit. Maybe KC or someone who knows how could try looking for the hat file and try changing the mapping. Then maybe someone could create a new template. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Blues Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Well, here's how the one that got posted looks, just so you know. Wow, that's some horrendous mapping. I didn't realize part of the front of the cap was mapped in with the other two segments on the .bmp. You can see that by how just the smallest corner of the striping sneaks into the front half of the hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Blues Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 And were you talking about the Wichita Pilots? If so, we should compare work... No, I haven't even seen the Wichita Pilots yet. I'll have to look into that, too. I was talking about the Seattle Pilots in my Brewers history pack. Check out my WIP thread in Previews, or the screenshots I put in my download to see what I mean about the mapping of the top of the bill being mirrored. Not sure why I said brim in my previous post...I'll edit that now so it makes more sense :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your work is looking greater and greater with each mod. It's funny to look back on our old work, the stuff we were making when we'd trade tips over AIM, and wonder why we thought it was good looking -- not even in the same ballpark as stuff we're putting out now...

thespungo Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Don't make the logo smaller, stretch it wider. What they were trying to say is that the game stretches the logo inward, so you have to compensate by making the logo wider. Compare yours and mine: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Blues Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Spungo, I couldn't agree more. Your work has improved by leaps and bounds, and I've learned a ton of tricks, nuances and technical stuff since then. I've seriously thought about going back and redoing all the minor league stuff I've done. I also looked up the Wichita Pilots and ran across the Wichita Aeros as well, when they looked as if they were the Expos' farm team. That's how it appeared from the cap logo, anyway. Maybe we can get me, you, fizz and bully together on a major project, as well as KC if he's up for it. Now back on topic, Miata, the logos look a lot better, the cap's in particular. Just move it back to the right side. You can tell it's the front of the hat since there aren't any ventilation holes on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal Blues Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Much, much better. Also, as far as spungo's catcher's gear, if you want color schemes that aren't in his pack, it would be a simple fix (that is, of course, as long as spungo's ok with it). Just open up the .bmp, select the part you want recolored with either the magic wand tool or lasso (or go the quick mask route, if you're familiar with it), hit ctrl+j to make a new layer with the selection (that way you still have the original in case you mess up), then adjust the color with the hue and saturation sliders under the Image>Adjustments menu.

miatafreak Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 Ok that seems simple enough. I'm so used to the hockey goalie temps where the color layer is just linked to the layer so you just have to change the color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
