Community to the Rescue - The Graphics thread for FHM 13

[Wasserlasser]

I will dig them up and see how many I have to send them over. They seem to be in the same format as the Eishockeymanager 2009 pictures so they are somewhere on my hard drive :-)

I also have them in the AddOns for the above mentioned game so if nothing at all I can get them out of there.

I hope the weekend will do the trick.

That would be great! Thank you.

You gotta love the community spirit we've got here even before the game has been released.

Archi, do you think the pack will be released with the beta opening?

Yeah that's my intention. DB work is the priority, but I'm doing my best to get all of the file names of the graphics sorted in between. I want to get it done ideally within 2 weeks because I've got some pretty big exams coming up after then.

I am quite sure I have sent you Czech 2. liga, some of the Slovakian leagues (not sure which but it was Extraliga and 1. liga I guess) and Polish Extraliga as well.

I've got the Slovakian and Polish logos (I might not have time to edit the Polish ones in time for the beta release - in which case, I'll release them as an update the following week as my exams will be over by then). I'll check through my emails regarding the Czech 2. Liga.

It went in the same email and archive as the Czech 1. liga. I can send it again if you need.

Here's the download link for version 1.00: [All] TBL Logopack for FHM v1.00 • EHM The Blue Line

I realised after I uploaded it that I forgot to add Fryan to the credits list in the readme file (he provided many of the German logos). I've added him to the credits list ready for the next release. If I missed anybody else from the list, please let me know and I'll make sure I add you.

The ZIP file linked to above contains a readme file with installation instructions, etc.

This logo pack is a work in progress. I will continue to update it as new teams are added to the database and any team names are changed. I also have logos for additional teams that I need to edit and add to the pack (including a number of Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Norwegian, Polish, Slovakian, LNAH and NCAA teams) and I plan on adding ACAC and CIS teams (and perhaps others). If anybody finds any missing logos (i.e. where some teams from a league have logos and others don’t) or any low quality logos then please let me know.

Here's a list of which leagues of teams are covered (71 league logos and 778 team logos are included):

For people who are interested in historical (NHL) logos I want to describe the way FHM handles them:

The graphic should be 150x150, have a transparent background and be saved as png.

Naming: "name nickame_year.png"

The game will take the last logo available and change them automatically between seasons.

Example:

Boston Bruins, starting in 1947. First logo would be "boston bruins_1934", second one "boston bruins_1948" and third one "boston bruins_1949" (just early years). Starting in 1947 the game would import the first one, after the season, before the 1948 season it would change to the second one and one year later the third one. If no newer logo is available it would continue with the third logo forever.

A huge thank you to everyone who participated in working on the TBL logo pack for FHM 2013.
Much appreciated.

[Jabez54]

That's really good to know. I have a collection of historic logos and so I might add them to the pack at some point.

I think a separate hist-pack makes more sense but we can talk about it via mail.

[Alessandro]

Hey Archi, I will help you with the YHL 2 sooner or later, it would be great.
Also, Sebastian, do you think researching old Soviet logos would be useful for the historical game?

Sure thing! Come to think of it, the historic logos will need to be located in the Historic folder rather than the Majors folder. And we'll need historic league logos too.

Alessandro - That'd be great. Drop me an email whenever. Btw, I've been told that that Atlant Mytishchi logo is out of date and so I'll fix that - but let me know if you come across any other incorrect Russian logos.

I've started work on a logo pack for historic NHL teams. I've got all of the images named correctly - I just need to resize them all. I'll release it with just the NHL teams but I'll eventually add all of the WHA teams too.
