Look of Logos in OOTP2006

Eugene Church · 02-22-2006, 03:46 PM

I am well aware that this is not much in the overall scheme of things related to the new version, but since I am easily bothered by poor graphics, I will ask this question:

Will the final version of the game have logos that look like the sample screenshots? Please make the circles complete. Using parts of a circle looks poor IMHO. The MIA on with the partial circles could be improved. Just put the red letters on a yellow background, that would look much better that the present ones.

Are the colors locked in? Will all teams have the same colors for Logos? Will we be able to assign each team it own colors?

Please help.

My future happiness and well being depends on this serious flaw being fixed.

Oh come now, let us not be rash in judgement.

This is a valid concern.

danjel · 02-22-2006, 04:02 PM

Meh.

Personally, I'll probably replace all of the logos once I've got the game running anyhow.

What would be nice would be to get someone to do some drawings of various animals and possible team mascots (cannons, ships, and so forth), which could then be used as a generic logo style. So, the Warringah team could have a Rat for their logo (hey the Rats are a rugby team, but we'll just ignore that).

Would be better than a circle with a couple of letters inside, imho.

Not that'm bothered, as I said, I'll probably make my own anyway.

Cras · 02-22-2006, 04:05 PM

I assume that the game generates those generic logos based on what you put the teams abr. to be. (If I am wrong, please someone who knows correct me!) I figure that at least those are better than nothing.

Aren't the logos being shown on player pages just stand-ins for a lack of player photo though?

The logos, I'm sure, will be full circles on other pages, such as the boxscores:

Maybe.

Markus, release the game today so we can figure this out.

Malleus Dei · 02-22-2006, 05:00 PM

Eugene, the logos that come with the game have always been awful.

Relax.

By the way, I'm compiling together a full set of major and minor league logos (the latter organized by league) in the new 150 x 150 .png format and should have them posted and ready for download before OOTP2006 comes out, so that there will be some quality logos available right out of the box for the MLB crowd.

I believe many of the answers can be found in this thread.

Will we be able to select the logo picture from within the game? Instead of renaming the files.

I am glad that there are some sensible people out there who understands this dilemma...where is Adrian Monk when you need him?

Thanks, ifspuds.

I am glad to see that the circles are complete.

I will be able to sleep tonight.

Great question. I second it.

Man, that would make things soooo much easier.

I do want the graphics to be addressed, but will not suffer, if they are not improved.
