Do we have control over game-created logo colors?

cephasjames · 01-16-2006, 05:14 PM

Very minor thing in light of all the other features, but I was just curious. Most of us plan on having a lot of teams in our worlds and we probably won't all be using created or real logos for most of them (unless we get more logo makers). So, being that the game will create logos for us (which I think is a fantastic idea by the way

), will we have any control over the colors used in the logos or will we have to live with whatever colors come up?

Again, thank you, Markus, for creating in game logos - no matter how simple they are.

Wow, I never thought of this question.

This one should be answered by the development team, though my guess is that we won't be able to, but hopefully I'll be wrong.

If the in-game logo is exportable, then many freeware and most payware digital image manipulation software ought to allow you to swap the colours to whatever you prefer. Still, it's a good question.

I don't see a reason, programming-wise, why there shouldn't be an editable "Team Color" setting. Therefore my guess is a clear "Yes".

Thanks for your reply, but that's the kind of step I'm hoping to not have to go through.

I'm hoping the dev team does answer this.

bump, to get attention...

Markus Heinsohn · 01-19-2006, 12:04 PM

Yeah, that will work... hopefully I don't forget to implement this in the release version.

I love how these old threads are getting resurrected, especially ones that I've contributed to before. I'm almost at 300 posts, and it's neat to see that every one of them is a pure pearl of wisdom, or something.

EDIT: Well, folks, this makes me MR. 300! To quote the movie Mr. Baseball:

"Ooooh! MAJOR LEAGUER!"

This is almost as nice as making my first Googlewhack!

Very cool. That was a cool aspect of FPS... although it was much more elaborate in Baseball Pro 98 than Baseball 94 or this. Anyway, it's very nice to hear.

Whoa Whoa Whoa, wait a minute, hold up. The new version will create logos by itself??

Long_Long_Name · 01-31-2006, 06:45 AM

Look at the screenshots. They're a circle with the team's abbreviation in it. The circle is one color, and it's surrounded with a border of another color, which is the same color as the letters are.
