Not liking the condensed Team logos at all

silvam14 · 06-22-2011, 02:45 PM

Why was this changed? On the team screen where the team header is, the logos are barely readable now.

Doesn't look good in my opinion. I could have sworn some screenshots that were posted earlier did not look like this

Can you give an example of what you mean?

Your only other option is to have the logos handled the way they were originally intended in the skin, but that would have involved them being cut off and not shown in their entirety. I believe you're seeing the reduced images in order for the whole logo to be shown.

Yep. This is correct.

Here is an example using the league page. The logo is not alligned properly to begin with and it is tiny.

I liked it that way. How can I get it back?

I think he means on the roster screen the top left corner where the logo's are its slightly cramped and you dont see the logo clearly.

I was just wondering along that thought...can we import Padrefan's logo's from OOTP11? (or whoever did them - I'm not trying to discredit the hard workers who put it together!)

Nope, I meant the regular team screen.

Last year the logos were big and although they weren't completely visible, had a great effect. I see no reason to make them tiny there.

I hated it when they weren't completely visible. That being said, I don't really like the scrunched look either. The beta team all wanted to get rid of the half seen logos but most of them had ideas involving an entirely new logo banner or a larger area so the entire logo could be seen. This new logo scrunchiness was added very shortly before release.

I understand it is a superficial thing, but when practically nothing was done to enhance the look of the game this year or incorporate some more aesthetic features i.e. Team colors/Jerseys/logos/caps, and to see that only things were taken away kind of pisses me off.

Ok - help me out here. I'm looking right now art the 2011 Florida Marlins site...aside from I hate the look of the generic letters - it shows up fine on my screen...its only when I pick the roster screen I notice you can barely see the F and background. I didnt change my screen resolution, just maximized the screen (1200 X 780 is OOTP's native I think)

Thanks Cody.

Bad decision, Markus

Behold, the top is 12, the bottom is 11

To be fair, it was probably Andreas

LOL.

moore4807 · 06-22-2011, 03:11 PM

OK I see you imported your own custom logo's then... the bitmap image (or whatever you used) or size may have changed from last year.

I was posting here wondering why I'm not having any luck importing the logo files over from OOTP11... this may be the answer

Nah, I'm pretty familiar with how the logos work in this game and the yare the same. just handled differently by the skin this year.

The least they could have done is offer the same skin from last year

spleen1015 · 06-22-2011, 03:20 PM

I agree. The old way is better.

agreed. But eitherway, its an awesome game!

I'm not an export on skins, but shouldn't there be something in the XML files that would allow you to change the dimensions of the logo shown there?
