Silvam parks with backgrounds
 

I have been fooling around trying to add background to some of Silvam's excellent historical parks. I finally found a way to make some that a somewhat acceptable. These are not Sky Boxes. They work with the background times of day that come with the game. I used Silvam's 1988 Fenway and also did another 40's/50's version by changing the signs. Let me know what you thinks

40's-50's Fenway
 

Here are the shots of the older Fenway

Wow. It looks great!

Thanks. If someone wants these, is it okay to make them available? If so, how do you want to do it?

Here is Cleveland League Park circa 1920.

Great start! :thumbup:

Here is Cominsky Park

These are great! I think everybody will like this.

Been awhile but i thought CF faced towards the lake/ south of downtown which would make the Dan Ryan be on the RF side. also what do they look like from more of a field level view?

Getting 2d pictures with the correct perspective to look halfway decent with the 3D Parks is a real challenge. Since I can't use Google Earth to look at historical parks, I just find pictures that look similar to what I see from the pictures on Ballparks of Baseball ? Your Guide to Major League Baseball Stadiums. My intent was to add backgrounds so that the parks con't look like they are floating in the sky. I am not all that happy with me results because some parks look like they are sitting on top a very high hill with the city beneath. If/when I can find perspective pictures that work better, I will up date the parks. I only put the background outside the left and right field fences as that is all you can see whilst playing the game. Also, I don't see any point in doing background for parks that don't show any sky whilst playing. e.g. Cleveland Municipal. I am going to post a link where you can download these parks. Then you can look at them from any angle you like. https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/my-drive

Adion, thanks for all your work on this. I didn't use 3D at all in the last version but I'm amazed at the progress that's been made, both by OOTP and talented folk like you, Silvam etc. It's much appreciated by this long-time OOTP player.

Shibe
 

Here is Shibe. Silvam has graciously allowed me to make these parks available for download. He has done all the heavy lifting by building these parks. I just did a little 'window dressing'. I have only finished 6 so far and will add more as I get them done. Getting the perspective of a 2D picture behind a 3D park is challenging. Getting the correct era cars in the background is also challenging. When I can find a way to better them, I will up date them. I am open to any suggestions and/or help.

Sportsman Parks
 

I have uploaded Sportsman Park AL & NL. The only difference is the logo on the scoreboard.

I was just trying to give uya a hard time. I would use them. When ya can i download them?

They are here. If this doesn't work let me know and I will change the method/location for downloads. I appreciate your comments. https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/my-drive

For some reason it goes straight to My Drive not your My Drive.

Obviously My Drive doesn't work. I have uploaded them to MediaFire. I tested this link on another computer and it worked this time.

Baker Bowl
 

Baker Bowl. I couldn't find a Google Earth location with a brick chimney and building like it was way back then but this was based on the same street. I finally have a link to my files that works. Between my thick head and the thunder storms it took more time than it should.

Maybe I'll try logging out of Mediafire but this goes to my mediafire. I can load Silvams Mediafire fine.

Any chance i could get the same background for Silvam's Arsenal Park?
