Does Anyone Have a Good On Field Setup For Player Icons?

The Game · 11-14-2020, 06:48 PM

I hate how this looks. Most players are scrunched together and it looks messy to me. Plus it takes forever to move player to where i want him then when i get him set, i have to move the runner and then the runner and fielder overlap. Just wondering if anyone has a goos solution to this.

It is messy, even on a big monitor it's tough to get all of the icons appearing in an orderly way that doesn't obstruct your view. And of course it varies from park to park.

Just a small one but it will free up some room: move your lineup widgets down a bit so the bullpen section at the bottom is behind the player stats. Like I said, not much room saved but every little bit helps.

I get rid of all player icons, so I just see the animated players on the field

Monitor size and screen resolution make a huge difference.

This is a 27" monitor with 2560 x 1440 resolution.

How can you do this?

Pregame screen - set player photos to off and player labels to small.

That doesn't get rid of the icons though...it just makes them small. ???

You'll be left with only the player's name, in a small font, in a rectangular box. They're kind of ugly, but I think the point is to be as minimalist as possible.

My screen resembles the OPs before I tap my space bar or push a number key. As soon as the play starts I have it set so everything disappears, including the top section/banner. So, it doesn't really bother me at all.

I would love to have Bluenoser's resolution on my 18.3" laptop screen. Wow! That looks beautiful.

Unfortunately that's the best you can do. There's no way to disable them completely that I'm aware of.
