Negro League Parks

[Braden]

I have uploaded the parks I am currently using in my Negro League that I started in 1927 and have progressed to 1929. As you probably know, there are little to no parks available for this league and time period. So I modified (with the help of my Grandpa) some of Silvam14's & asrivkin's parks to use in this game. (I hope they don't mind).I have uploaded them to the below address. There are 2 park folders, 1 without Sketchup and 1 with Sketchup. I have not uploaded the folder with Sketchup yet because it is so large. I will start that up load tonight. I will add more parks as necessary as I progress in years.


If anyone has suggestions for parks to use and/or add, let me know.


There is also a folder for a few player photos that I got From Baseball reference.

In preparation for the 1931 season, I have added a couple of new parks, one for Indianapolis and one for Louisville. I have also updated some of the ones I previously uploaded. I did not build these parks. I just did some minor changes, backgrounds, signage to parks I download, e.g. silvam14, asrivkin, etc. Many thank to them for their excellent work!I have also added some more player photos. I also changed the format for the downloads so that it is easier to find stuff.

Thanks!

Any plans to recreate Hinchliffe Stadium - AKA the former home of the New York Black Yankees?

to crapeaudine:

check out silvam14's inventory of stadiums. Hinchcliffe is there. (I played a game there setting up Negro Leagues teams and silvam's Hinchcliffe works well.

Hinchcliff wasn't built until 1932. I have only advanced to 1931. When I advance to a year that has teams that played there, I will use it. Now, I have a separate park for each team. A few, very few, I can find on here. The others I use parks I can download that look similar and modify, e.g. period signage, old looking backgrounds, etc., for teams. That is what my uploaded parks were assigned to cities where they were used.

I have put all the parks I use for my Negro League in one folder. It is available here. You can determine what park your team use by checking Seamheads, baseball reference, or just searching the internet. The exception is the Havana Cuba Stars East which had no park listed, so I made one, Florida 1931.

No. .oi is used by the files that ship with the game and reflect MLB and MLBPA works that the .oi suffix prevents the alteration of. Most convert them to .pngs. .pngs work fine, no need to convert to the restrictive .oi format.
