Falstaff Field

[The Professor]

I haven't made a stadium in a long time...so I sat down to goof off and here is what I ended up with.

Falstaff Field, an alternate history home of the St. Louis Browns (I saved a version minus the Brownie logo should anyone be interested) financed by St. Louis's own Alvin Griesedieck and built within earshot of downtown St. Louis.

Dimensions:

LF line 320
LF 345
LeftCenter 380
Dead Center 419 (at the niche in the wall under the Falstaff logo, between the trees)
RightCenter 380
RF 345
RF line 325

Fences: 8', 14' at dead center



Edit: Added dimensions...

Your work is inferior, completely without merit, and doesn't belong here. Take it down immediately.

Oh wait, this isn't the OTBL forum.

Just kidding. Excellent work, Prof.

[asaintsfan]

Nice job - DO you have any dimensions for this field?

[Tyke]

Nice work, Prof, thanks so much. Like asaintsfan i'd been keen to know the dimensions and capacity you envisage, please.

[Kelric]

A Moxie ad! That instantly doubles the park's value in my eyes.

[Andy]

Nice, I like how part of the field is shaded

[LivnLegend]

Very nice work!

This stadium is excellent. I would like the generic without the Browns logo.

I am not very computer literate.

I have just started adding logos and have learned how to download them and install...thanks to dbacks great instructions.

How do you download and install stadiums from this forum?

Are these stadiums ready to install, complete with the game coordinate requirements?

Also do you have other stadium designs available?

Thanks for your help.

This is from the FAQ:

II. Installing Stadium pictures:

Stadium pictures need to be 640*480 pixels and in .bmp format. Any paint program should have the ability to convert other image files(.jpg, .gif) to .bmp.

1. Copy stadium images into the "Graphics" folder in the main OOTP directory. You might find it convenient to make a new folder in the "Graphics" folder named "Stadiums" or "Stad" or something, then put all stadium pics in there, just to keep them organized and separate from other graphics files.

2. To assign pics to specific stadiums in OOTP, go to League--->League Setup--->Edit Ballpark (in the top-right box labeled "editors")

3. Each stadium will have it's own "In-Game Field Picture." The default for all stadiums is "Field.bmp."

4. Simply click the "In-Game Field Picture" button and type in the path to the pic you would like to use. For example, to assign a pic named "Wrigley.bmp" which resides in the Graphics folder, you would just type "Wrigley.bmp" If the pic is in the "Stad" folder, which is in the Graphics folder, you would type in "Stad\Wrigley.bmp" Note: All stadium pics (or a folder containing stadium pics) must be in the graphics folder.

5. To make sure this worked properly, click the "test coordinates" button. The new stadium pic should be displayed with the positioning of players on the field.

Now, to download the stadiums, do exactly the same as the logos. Right-click on the picture, then click on save picture as. Go to your OOTP5 directory, then open the Graphics folder. Then go ahead and save it using the name you want (i.e. for this one, maybe you want to call it falstaff.bmp). Also make sure it's in the Bitmap (*.bmp) format.

Now, in the first step where it says the stadiums need to be 640 x 480, that is true, but you can disregard it as the fictional stadiums you will find in this forum are already that size.

And then you can follow the steps 2-5. If you need any more help, don't hesitate to ask.

Sorry, I forgot to answer this, too. To find other stadiums (fictional) that have been done by The Professor, or Teflon Skies, you can use the search function. Just go all the way to the top of this page, and it will be in the top right corner. Just click on the search button, and where it says "search by Keyword," you can type in park, field, stadium, ballpark, whatever you want. Then where it says Search all open forums (right under search by keyword), click where it says that, and go down until you see --OOTP Mods. Click that. Then go ahead and perform search. This way you will only get results in the Mods section instead of other weird results that have nothing to do with stadium designs.
