Easy Way To Change Stadiums?

bbmike · 04-15-2010, 06:23 PM

I have created a default stadium picture that I would like to use for all of my teams. I loaded the picture and set the player locations for one team. Is there an easy way to copy the information to all of the other teams without having to do each one manually?

The only way I know would be in the lower left corner of the ballpark screen under "actions" you can export the ballpark settings to a file and then go to each team and import the file settings. It would mean going to each team but you wouldn't have to type in all the info.

I probably should have thought of that by now. It does work but I have to re-enter the teams own field name each time. Still much easier than moving player positions around and loading images.
Thanks!

Can't you just make two copies of the image you want to use, then rename them to "default_grass.jpg" and "default_turf.jpg" and put them in the data\ballparks folder? If you go to that folder, you'll see that the picture of Philadelphia's stadium is there along with an image for turf. You may want to back those up, so just rename them to something else.

This will require starting a new game, however.

If you replace the default ballpark with yours and call it default_grass, you won't need to start a new game as that info is in the original parks.dat file. Just copy that into your save game folder replacing the one that's in there now and your good to go. You can copy from the one in the mlb quikstart folder. Since the ballpark photo will be same name as default your good to go. Make a backup of the one in your saved game folder first.

Thanks for the help guys. I did the export/import thing. I had already changed all of the teams ballparks to the MLB2K10 custom photos but didn't want to move all of the player positions around for each team so I went back to one default ballpark for now.
