Looks beautiful all except the basic batting ratings, the difference between current and potential color wise isn't as nice and easy to differentiate as it was in 14.

May I humbly suggest not removing the sidebar buttoned menu? It was really convienient to access the basics of your team with the click of a button. I assume it's now a dropdown menu?

If you click on the "<<" on the right, the sidebar will re-appear (and remain visible). It's just hidden by default.

Not a fan of what looks like heavy shading on the left of the player faces.

Oh ok. Cool. Thanks, Markus.
Enjoy the SB tonight (if you're gonna watch).

Nice, crisp, clean, particularly the fonts. This time, I give Daniela one of these:

Worth saying again - LOVE the new clean, sharp look. It looks like you turned the "sharpness" control all the way up!

Facegen is much more "in focus" as well.. makes for a much better result.

According to OOTP itself, OOTP MLB play (modern and historical) outnumbers OOTP fictional play three to one.

Five thousand thanks for a non-modder? I never thought I'd see the day. Thank you for your support.

and i assume this also means different colour writing is gone in the header, with no more team colour background.. this is great, sometimes the combination did not come up easily readable.

really impressive look.

Lookin' good!

I think the FaceGen needs some tweaking though. The faces look off somehow to me.

They look a little more cartoonish than before imo.

How does this affect logos with foreground and background color codes in the file name?

Maybe you're right and something is a little off. The more I look the more I think that may be the case.

I think the start up screens look good. I'm very excited by what I have seen so far. I would like to offer up some criticisms, if I may.

1. I think the ratings bars have taken a step backwards. There is no depth, no shading, and no contrast. They need shading around the edges or a bevel or something. There is no contrast between the bars and the background.

2. On the top of the player pages the menu tabs completely blend into one another. I think you should have a border around each menu tab or some degree of separation to provide depth.

3. The menu tabs and team color bars that change in realtion to each team's colors look like they will only have a single tone of color and a single color of text. While 2 is what we are used to I do think the bars need shading and contrast.

4. Not a fan of the new horizontal scores. I much preferred two vertical columns. 2 columns feels more natural.

5. I thought you were going to put the most-recent years stats on the top or set the scroll bar to start at the bottom.


That's all I have for the moment. I think you have have gotten plenty of well-deserved pats on the back already so I thought I'd offer something, perhaps, more valuable to you. An opinion.

RE: Facegen. The lower right side of the player's face is shadowed. If the player has a beard, it's still possible to see his jaw line. But if he's clean-shaven in that area, the jaw line disappears. Then he looks a bit cartoonish, yes.

Nice!

Player info and main screen are now in one background photo instead of 2 in v14 (Fenway Park in player info and turf on the main screen). Great background on v15.
