Historical question

Ragin Cajun · 07-20-2007, 05:01 PM

I've downloaded Lahman's database for players. I've got a logo set as well.

I started a couple of leagues, one in the 1940's and one in the 70's.

I've followed the directions on where to unzip the database and logos to.

the db works fine with importing rookies each year. My question is with the logos.

The logos are in a folder for logos/19XXs/XX where 19xx is each decade (i.e. 1940s, 1950s, 1960s) and XX is each year in the decade (i.e. 41, 42, 43, 44). I thought that the logos would import automatically whenever a change took place but that is not happening. Any idea why not and how I can get them to update automatically? This is a chore having to go in to set all the logos manually and then update each season.

Thanks

OOTP just supports the one folder with all the photos in, much to my begging to support subfolders.

However, click on my link in my signature and check out AUPHOTODELUXE and it will import the photos in that layout, which is more yearly correct and allows multiple photos from different years for the players. My program will import for you and also help you organize your photos.

Also, check out AULOGOPRO, which is exactly what you are looking for. It will run in the background and as the year in your sim changes (even when simming multiple seasons), the historical correct logo will be copied over. It will also update your almanac.

Give them a try. (Sorry if you are a mac, no mac version)

Tried to get this program. The INSTALL option didn't work as it said the page was unavailable.

I then tried the LAUNCH option. It said it "cannot start application" because it's missing required files. Just an FYI.
