So far I've got NHL, AHL, CHL, ECHL, KHL, SHL, Allsvenskan, SM-liiga, DEL, DEL2, NLA and Ligue Magnus but I'll add more as time allows.

Of course you should release them. The more the merrier.

Alright, so here's what I've got so far. All logos are 150x150 with transparency so you should be able to dump them into the logo_teams and logo_leagues folders and be done with it.

I think Face Gen compatibility is essential. You don't? The player pictures just adds so much more to the game for me.

I think it has been confirmed that there will be Facegen even for version one but I'm not sure now. Try searching

I added a couple more leagues to my pack, updated link is in the post above.

Great job - but there are some NHL logos missing from past teams.

So if you're playing a historical season and looking for the logos of the Quebec Nordiques, Minnesota North Stars or Colorado Rockies - here is an awesome website

I hate to say it but Björklöven who got promoted to Allsvenskan 12/13 is missing.

I don't care much for the historical seasons so I haven't done them yet. I think somebody has already released a historical pack anyway, there's a download link somewhere in this thread a few pages back

Huh, that's weird. Shows up like this in my game?

Ah sorry, It was me who only checked in the logo folder after files that started with the letters Bj...I hate that club and we never say IF Björklöven

[jak]

Ah good, thought I had missed it when I zipped the archive...

I'll be doing some more leagues this week, plus I noticed that a few of the logos I made when the game still had the light background need a little touching up in order to work with the dark theme. Mainly transparency issues or untidy borders like this,

Should be done by the weekend.

Hmmm it doesn't look like Fireholder ever got round to uploading it. I'll sort it out asap this week now that I've got my internet connection back up and running.

Updated my original post with a link to the latest pack.
Tidied a few logos up and added a couple of leagues.

[Michael Hopcroft]

I love that so many people are contributing to the logo supply! You can never have too many logos.

I also wonder how logos are made, because every so often I get an idea for a team name or concept in OTTP or similar games (like in my draft leagues in Action PC Basketball or Football) and I lack the graphic skills to make them happen. I remember years ago someone did a couple of logos based on my ideas for OTTP and I don't know whether anyone still has time, patience or energy to do that.

The NHL is listed under United States? What happened to North America? There ARE still Canadian teams in the league.

Does anyone know if there is a way to redo the logos once a saved game is in progress?

if mean to edit a particular logo and save over an old one while you are in a season... then yes, yes you can.

For convenience's sake I listed the leagues as they appear in game, hence NHL = US. I agree there should be an extra category for multinational leagues.

Guys, I set up my fictional league logos at 150x150 pngs, but only the BW png logos show up properly in the game. The color png logos mesh in with the background on the game screens. Only the BW png logos are non-transparent.

How can I get the color logos to show up properly and not be transparent ?

Thanks in advance !

Inside this logo-pack there is a file called aspl牌en hc - thats not correct..

Probably IKEA

[Michael Hopcroft]

How do you attach logos in historical leagues? The first historical game I started (I've started two test games, not intending to stick with either of them long if at all because I know it's a beta and how many kinks need to be worked out before the release -- and that no piece of software is ever truly "finished" had no logos at all.

I'm also wondering how logos are assigned to teams. Hopefully it can be done automatically because the worlds of a contemporary game are ENORMOUS (more than two dozen leagues it seems like) but is it necessary to get rid of the default/generic logos if you want to use the "proper" ones?
