Historical naming for helmet and jersey files

Canuck82 · 11-02-2016, 09:17 AM

Hello,

There has been a great job done on historical jerseys for facegen, and I see the naming convention has been updated so that jerseys and helmets automatically load if there is beginning year to end year (or a single year for just one season).

Since all of the created jerseys and helmet only have a single year designation, I am wondering if there is no default one set, will the go back to the last year there is a file?

For example. If you have a Montreal Canadiens 2000 and then not another until Montreal Canadiens 2007 (and there is no straight Montreal Canadiens file), in 2002 for example - will it keep using the one from 2000 - until a new file is found in 2007?

Hope this is somewhat clear....

Yeah, that's how it's supposed to work.

FYI, I'm the creator of the historical set. I have/an redoing the historical project from 1931 (first historical season in FHM3) to present day. I have about 7 teams left and I'll post the updated set. There have been minor tweaks to all teams so be on the lookout.

As mentioned yes. Example Winnipeg Jets ( the *new jets*)

jersey_winnipeg_jets_2011
jersey_winnipeg_jets_2012

In 2011 in my set they have an inaugural patch so there's a different jersey in 2011, then 2012 and beyond there is no patch and no jersey changes. Therefore the "jersey_winnipeg_jets_2012" will be used for every year in 2012 and beyond. So if you were to make it to year 2073 in your save the Jets would still be using "jersey_winnipeg_jets_2012" unless you made a new file with a higher year designator. Hopefully that makes sense. If something here doesn't seem right or accurate feel free to chime in and correct me!
