Missing player cards on the field

[hefalumps]

Just imported a bunch of Silvam14's updated historical stadiums - they're amazing! But I'm having an issue with the centerfielder's "player card" not being visible on the default "overview" camera on most stadiums. Other cameras work, but I'd like to figure out how to adjust the "overview" camera to bring the centerfielder's player card into view.

Anyone have thoughts? I'm computer savvy but know nothing about the 3d modeling stuff - so I'm capable of learning but might need step-by-step instructions to figure this out! Thanks!

Typically, I find the "overview" camera angle displays all of the cards in the Initial Camera view

For Memorial Stadium (my home stadium) it works fine, but for two of the three other road stadiums I played a game in recently, it didn't.

What controls where the cards line up on the screen? I see stuff in the help file about the "grid" and I can see a checkbox for how to display the grid in the ballpark setup, but I don't know how to modify the grid or how to indicate where on the grid fielders should be showing up.

Are there any blogs or forum posts with details on how this works? I'd love to know just enough to be able to intelligently setup cameras - I'm OK leaving textures and everything else to you and the experts.

Thanks!

i play many manual games and i found a trick to get the fielder labels where i want them.
i typically use Modern3D view in my manual games but on some stadiums i noticed perhaps a centerfielder (or other fielder) label not showing. i do set fielder label locations as Custom in the manual game settings.
if a label does not show the trick is to switch to another view like Modern2D. is the missing centerfielder label now showing? if it is, move it almost to the infield by right clicking while holding the click down and moving the label. Now switch back to Modern3D. is the centerfielder label now showing? if so, move it like the other fielder labels where you want them based upon your camera angle.
You might have to try other views like Classic2D or Classic3D to find missing labels in order to then move them toward the middle of the infield to later move them where you desire for Modern3D.

i assume this method will also work if you use fielder pics.
