My 3D ballpark models

[vulcan4]

All of the parks 'diagram' images are not sized correctly when installed and viewed via 'Webcast'. And when I try to resize them myself at 600x600 via Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop, they do not size correctly. I'm going to assume that this is well known, but are there any suggestions or is the purpose of these files strictly for the 3D element of the game? Thank you!!

Here's a good shot of the height and color of the back wall of the stadium. The burgundy paint on the fence is some weird 1970s add on lol. But on the post card, if you look closely you can see the paint on the seats and the light fixtures is actually different from the actual fences. (Most obvious in right field).

As a New Yorker familiar with pics and of the local stadiums during this time period. I'm willing to guarantee that at least during the 1960s on, the color of the fence is the same as the original one in Shea (before the bright blue). A really dull blue teal. The one you have is a little too bright, The stadium seats and the light bottoms are the same as the renovated Yankee stadiums original blue.

Prior to that, from the images I've seen I'm not certain that the light look of the walls was partially because it was actual chain link in left and right until the centerfield part which was the dark grey/black in old Yankee stadium.

The kicker about the New York Metropolitan area, especially New York and Jersey,during this time is that the color schemes used by from the 1950s on many civic and public buildings were the same. The same construction material companies would have supplied materials and the tendency was (partially due to the cities economic policies and also due to...let's say...outside influences on politics) that the same stuff appeared on every project.

On a side note, that blue seen around Roosevelt on that post card, is the same shade of blue at one point found on every metal surface of every train station in NYC.

That's strange. I'll have to check them out. I definitely make sure I make the 600x600 version before I upload it

I said "all" and I shouldn't have. The one's I am talking about that are sized incorrectly are;
the Ebbets Fields,
for example - Ebbets_Field-1913-1957.
They are sized 1576x966

There may be more, but I haven't gone through them all. Just the Ebbetts so far.

Ehh....these parks may not even be yours. I'm all confused as to who's they may be. My sincere apologies. This is the first time I have gotten this in depth with parks and downloading them, etc.

All the parks I put backgrounds and 3D crowds on are Silvam's. It is not beyond the realm of possibility that I screwed somethng up when I did the 3D crowds but I don't thinks so because they are linked to the files in the attendance folder.

It's not a big deal for me. I was just letting others know. I don't mean to cause any ruckus, lol.

Back to this one...I waited until I seem to have 18 working (after waiting to see if they'd have an in-game park editor). You said you might work further on it down the road....

You noted somewhere in a post that you realized that what I wanted was a lot of foul territory in the OF but not much at all in the IF and I got the opposite. It's been fun to play with as is, but I'd like now to get that worked out. Basically, I want mostly the foul territory to be moved in for less territory in the infield (especially behind the C and the inner IF) and more room down the lines for balls to get into the corners.

Of course, it won't affect the results of plays, but it will be more the look I want, of a park where balls can get into the corners and rattle around while players take extra bases.

Even with the lesser room in the current corners, that happens to some degree because it has high double and triple ratings...but I'd love the park to look like it should happen.

Thanks!

Hey, I will take a look at it after I finish my latest project. Shouldn't be an issue to squeeze the foul territory down.

Thanks, just to be clear on what I want...I want it squeezed down in the infield but actually more foul territory in the deep outfield, where balls can rattle around in the corners.

Created Citi Field from scratch for 2009. There were dramatic dimension differences made since.

I may do a 2012 version as well

I don't see it in your download list.

I placed it under modern. I supposed it is a historical stadium though

Ah. The original Citi Field. Home run totals for the Mets really fell off the table when they moved there.

Funny though... I dont seem to recall the visiting teams having a problem hitting home runs there.

Oh well. I'm sure it had nothing to do with crap team they fielded that year.

Silvam, Thank you for the update to the Vet 1971. I haven't had a chance to load and play it until today. Great job on it. Fixed the swirly crowd, too. Very nice. Thanks.
