Hey all!

I have been working on a project to update the historical logos, caps, and jerseys. For many years I have been using the great creations from Kunckler and Reds1 for my historical leagues. I wanted to update these and add many which I noticed were missing (mostly in the early 1901-1950's timeframe, but I decided to pretty much re-create every uniform and most of the caps and add the missing logos as well.

This has taken considerable time and is still a work in progress. I want to be as accurate as possible so I have been using sites such as the following

Chris Creamer's Sportslogos.net:
https://www.sportslogos.net/teams/li...all/MLB/logos/

Baseballhalloffame.org - Dressed to the nines resource
http://exhibits.baseballhalloffame.o...e.htm#database

and an excellent site which details vitually every teams uniform/cap changes since 1901

https://mlbcollectors.com/LAAjerseys.php

For caps and uniforms that I didn't create, I am using the ones created by knuckler and reds1 and whoever else created them for the game (mostly caps)

Mind you, I have cleared out my jerseys and ballcaps folders and only have the files I have been working with. I found that the different file format used by OOTP ".oi" and the different year ranges in the files do much to screw up the auto loading process.

Also, another twist I am adding to my uniforms is a time appropriate jersey number and name on the back (most have "SILVAM" and "14")

I feel playing out games in 3D has a more realistic feel if there is something on the backs of the jerseys even if it has to be the same number and name for now (I've been asking OOTP for years to look into having that info populate for every player)

I realize some people may like it and some may not. I've found that some uniforms look better than others in 3D, but I'll take the good with the bad.

I will be presenting each decade of uniforms/logos here, so watch out for them. once I have gone through them all, I will post a zip on my mediafire and will also create a Steam workshop item.

I have saved the photoshop template for every jersey and cap, so fixes and adjustments can be made very easily.

I am only doing home and away uniforms. The game doesn't support alternates so I am not planning on adding them, although I may add some here and there if I get bored.

Hope you like them!

I have uploaded the ZIP and also created a Steam workshop item
