Has Anyone Made New Award Icons For 19?

Here are some in game screens to see how they look.

Might as well put these out. A couple awards you can use.
First I use for playoff mvp and second for custom.

Wow, how did you get the multiple awards to show up as a number?

1) Is the game booting TO the skin you changed?
2) If it’s not, once the game screen is there, change to the skin you altered.
3) They don’t become bin files. The bin file includes a pointer to ALL graphic files.
Verify 1 and 2. If they’re there, they’ll work.
Oh and make sure no skin directory has a skin.bin file. Delete them before you do anything else.

Okay, I may see the problem. 1 & 2 are done (I am booting to the skin I altered); HOWEVER, the other two skins have their .bin files. Are you saying I need to delete both .bin files from the skins I did not alter?

I suggested it, yes, but it’s not necessary except for the skin folder you alter. If a skin folder doesn’t have other folders, e.g Images, Style Sets, etc then you haven’t yet downloaded and installed that skin. Any time you change a graphic, you should rename or delete the skin.bin file _in that folder_.

Okay, one final question (I think). Should I have downloaded ALL three skins from the add ons center or just the one I wanted to alter? All I did was download and install the one I wanted to change and that was the only one I did any updates to. Your thoughts?

[endgame]

No real need to download any skin you don't plan on using. They're not related. If you switch skins, though, remember you will not have alterations in them; only in the skin you actually changed.

Got it! I am going to go back and delete the other skins' .bin files and see if that changes anything. I really appreciate your help with this. Hopefully deleting those files is the missing piece of the puzzle.

[endgame]

The others won't change anything. Focus on just the skin you're manipulating. Each skin is independent of the others.

It was added in one of the patches.
In the main game screen. Settings>interface>player awards in profile (there are a couple options now). I have it set to truncate at 1.

[ramairluvr]

Okay, I am still not good. Here is what I did:

1 - made sure the new award photos were in the folder for the skin I altered
2 - deleted the .bin files from ALL skin folders
3 - started the game and it booted to the skin I changed
4 - opened the game, but saw no changes

Am I overlooking anything you can see here?

[endgame]

And the old awards are showing up in the game? How far along is the league? You do see awards on players, just not the right ones?

The league is ten days into my first regular season. Awards are showing up, it is just the default ones and not the ones I updated. I have looked in every folder I can and I do not see the default awards anywhere, but they have to be SOMEWHERE that the game is picking them up. I am looking in two primary folders; the first one is
C:\Program Files (x86)\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 19\data\skins
and the other one is
C:\Users\Brian\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 19\addons\downloads\skin_files_ootp_19_classic.zip \skins\ootp 19 classic
Is there another folder I am overlooking (I am using Windows 7 btw)

[endgame]

I'll snap a shot of the directories when I can. What skin are you altering? There's something simple we're overlooking here.

I am changing the OOTP 19 Classic skin. I think a couple of shots would help a lot. I appreciate everything.

[endgame]

Sure. Here's a question I should have asked a lot earlier, but assumed because you mentioned Add-Ons Central. Are you using Steam?

No, I downloaded it from the OOTP online store, but not Steam.

[endgame]

Okay, sub 19 for what you see here, but this is the inside of the folder, right?

[ramairluvr]

I have everything there except the skin.bin file

[endgame]

and your naming conventions for the new files are these, right?

[ramairluvr]

Yes, naming conventions are all the same, and I don't know if you saw but I have all the same folders/files in my skin except for the skin.bin file. Everything else looks the same.

[endgame]

Okay, so it's not creating the skin.bin file. Do you have one in your recycle bin?
