edit ballpark wall height question

ra7c7er · 05-07-2015, 07:01 AM

I've never edited a stadium before so I wanted to ask before I screw something up since I'm doing this on the fly in a league I'm already playing.

I'm wanted to change a ballpark in my game to one I played at in little league. Down the right field line going to about right center was a lake with no fence. If the ball rolled into the lake it was a ground rule double. If the ball landed in the lake it was a home run.

My question is does anyone have any experience with changing a wall height to zero?

Also this is the rest of the park what would you make the ballpark factors.

Left line - 330 WH 12ft
Left field - 355 WH 12ft
Left center - 380 WH 6ft
Center field - 380 WH 6ft
Right center - 380 WH 6ft
Right field- 345 WH 0
Right line - 340 WH 0

Any help is greatly appreciated. And yes I did see several kids fall in the lake. Once a kid from my team. I've been told the field has been a rec center since the early 2000s and I can't find any pictures online.

the wall height is cosmetic if remembering correctly.

unless you change park factors themselves manually you can make the fences 5,000 feet and walls 500 feet tall with the same results.

Now that you mention it I think I remember reading that from a post last year. I'd forgotten.

Any thoughts on what the park factors should be?

i think it may be Gambo (could be wrong) but somewhere (possibly on ootp mods dot com) there is a ballpark database spreadsheet and you could always put in your park dimensions and have it spit out the proper park factors for the game.

The file is called Gambo's Importable Ballpark PRK Files

Actually, I think you're thinking of this:

http://ootpmods.com/mods/Gambo_Stadium_Chart_2013.rar

it's got a sheet where can enter dimensions and heights and it will return park factors.

Thanks for the help guys. I decided not to use the park since I can't find a picture. The program is the 2013 stadium chart.
