Work On Bigdog Photo Set V.2 well under way!!!!

APujols5 · 11-12-2006, 08:03 PM

I have basically started from scratch because now that I am seeing them in the game on a Hi-Def monitor, I was very underwhelmed with the quality of some of the pics

As of right now I have MLB, AAA, AA, a few Indy's, a couple College conferences and The Italian A1 Series collected and have been cropping and resizing over the last 48 hours.

Just as before I will be looking for any assistance possible to help collect hard to find Pics. So without further ado, here's my most current Missing pics list as I get ready to move into High Class A

Juan Beltran Seattle C
SEA 2b Juan Guzman
SEA P Juan Zapata
SEA C Julian Henson
Jose Garcia P Florida

Rockies
Radames Nazario SS

SF P Froilan Ramirez
LAD OF Jeremy S. Brown
LAD P Jose Diaz
LAD P Steven Johnson
OAK P Jose Guzman
OAK SS Eduardo Cornejo
TOR C Jeff Urgelles
CHA Carlos Lee C
CHA P Jeff Little
TB C Craig Albernaz
KC P Greg Atencio

Need a Better Pic
LAA OF Anderson Rosario

Besides anyone wanting to help find pics, I could also use a hand in checking in the game to see if the cuts are looking ok?

APujols5,

I'm a user of Bigdog V1, and I'm grateful for the hard work you put in - it's a pretty impressive effort, with over 7000 images to find, crop, and rename to fit the game's format. I just wanted to drop you a note, though, to say that I encountered a little bit of trouble when trying to incorporate the photos into an online league.

Basically, the trouble stems from your file names not matching the case of the player's name - i.e. you have mark_derosa.jpg instead of Mark_DeRosa.jpg. It doesn't matter at all in-game (which, of course, is the main priority), but for those who have Linux-based web hosting, file names are case sensitive and it was a bit of a shock for me to have spent a good portion of my day uploading my league, only to have only a select few images working in my player reports.

It was no big deal - my hosting company switched my service to Windows within a day, and I didn't lose any data - but I just wanted to throw it out there, as a service to anyone else who encounters this problem. And if it isn't too late (as in, you haven't started your final cropping/resizing and such) you could name the images as the player's name usually appears in-game. Again, no big deal. That's all I got.

If anyone has a Linux based server then? I would love to have the help in testing the pics and getting a list of what needs to be edited to work.

Bumping this topic.....

Also wanted to show a bit of my work that i uploaded....
Pay most attention to the college teams. Right now Bradley U and CST Fullerton are the only ones uploaded. but they show my actual cutting, and cropping vs just downloading pics from MLB.com

To anyone that might use this?

Would you rather see an update this weekend? or wait until OOTP 07 comes out and get a much more complete file?

APujols5 · 02-20-2007, 09:21 PM

Small Progress update, This project is now sitting at just under 20,ooo pics now. And now for the slightly bad news, it's also sitting at a 165mb.

APujols5 · 02-22-2007, 02:12 AM

Added another 2,500 today....

APujols5 · 02-25-2007, 01:42 AM

and work stops at 20,452 Pics for today

APujols5 · 02-26-2007, 04:21 PM

OK now I am replacing the bad quality pics with at least better cut bad quality pics :P

SO progress will move a bit slower
So todays update is 20,644

APujols5 · 02-27-2007, 03:22 PM

20.754 Now....

Any help would be greatly appreciated as things are moving much slower than I want right now
