Is there a way, when creating a new card, to force it to display a certain year instead of the year in game that you created the card?
I want to go back and create a new Hall of Fame card for all of the players already inducted into the HOF in my league with the cool HOF Plaque card. But when I do that it inserts the current (in game) year instead of the year the person was inducted into the HOF... |

Well I did it the hard way and modified the xml to replace the tag for year to the specific year the player was inducted. Then created the card for each player in that year. Went back to the XML and changed it to the next year, updated the cards for Hall of Famers for that year, and so on. When I was finished I changed the XML to having the tag for the year so future hall of famers should work fine.
I also modified the XML set up the card the way I preferred. Like putting the name of the team under the player's name, re-adding the league and team logos at the bottom and including the player's position at the bottom. I also modified the picture files to set the transparencies and remove the card like rectangle around the plaque so it looks like a plaque more than a baseball card. Here's the template, a pic of what it looks like when generated and the XML file. hof.xml |

Arg. Looks like the forum wants to convert the png to a jpg thereby losing the transparency.
I tried attaching it zipped but it's too big it won't let me... |

I don't know if we can get a list of teams the player played for, like on the real plaques, but maybe just having the stats below the picture instead????

yeah good point about the back I guess the back is really unnecessary if you are going to just display career totals. So yes, if we could make the picture a bit smaller and list the stats on the front that would be cool.

Here's what I have created for the Hall of Fame plaque. This image is a .jpg since the .png was too large to upload. Thus, I was not able to attach the actual template files either...

tweaked hof xml
Modified davwms' design and just moved some elements around. Here are examples of a batter and pitcher plaques. hof.xml file attached if anyone wants to use this as a base.

Does anyone have any of the png files for the plaques used here. I was looking to try and tweak a hall of fame plaque and really like what was started in this thread but unfortunately everything is a jpg or the links are broken.

Blah that converts it to a JPG...
Lets try it this way. Change the extension from XML to PNG. (my pic is too large to zip) Last edited by Jpotapoff; 07-14-2013 at 02:45 PM. |

Here's another one, this one is a single plague instead of the double sided one.
Rename extension for hofplaque.xml to .png. |

HOF plaque and xml
Here's a zip of what I ended up using. Includes the image png along with the xml code (and the small hof logo that I use as well). Here's an example:
