Ballparks

[Edster007]

In Go 23 when playing historical you could edit the ballparks to a teams current ballpark and get a little variety in stadiums. Just tried it on Go 24 and it doesn't seem to be working. Has anybody figured a work around? I play out games and like a little variety in stadiums.

Yeah another problem I hadn't posted.
Does your pitchers when pitching have ball hanging from hand around knee...just floating in air

This might actually be a bug, we'll have to dig into it further though

Never knew you could edit parks in the go program. What is the secret ?

Not much of a secret now because it isn't working in Go 24.

In Go 23 if you go your historical teams ballpark page and enter the name of the current park, you would then get that park when you played out a game or watched a replay. So if you were to change Tiger Stadium to Comerica Park, you would get the Comerica Park background for Tiger home games.

I never got it to work for Baltimore and Seattle but otherwise since I play games out it was nice to see different parks

I was able to get BAL to work but never did get SEA. Only one that did not.

Ok so I think we've fixed something that would relate to this issue. I don't know about the name changing (not sure that's 100% intentional) but that should also work again in the next patch.
Since Go doesn't have any historical ballparks, what's supposed to happen is that all historical ballparks that have a modern day equivalent (yankee stadium, fenway, etc.) just get replaced by the modern day ballpark model. This was not working in Go24, but will be in the next patch, so please let me know if it resolves the other issues because they're likely related

That's great, thank you sir. Is it/was it supposed to work automatically? It didn't in the previous version. I had to edit all ballparks as to their current name. As I mentioned I never got Baltimore and Seattle to work and because I was playing in the early 70's the Rangers played in Nationals Park regardless of the fact I edited their home park to Globe Life Field.

On mobile we don't save all of the historical parks on the device (it would take up too much storage), we only save the modern day parks. So what should happen automatically is any ballpark that was the same in the historical year as the current park gets the proper park file and everything (which is what I just fixed).
Some parks have names you might not expect which is why you might not have been able to get baltimore and seattle to work. I think Camden's name is store something like Oriole park at Camden Yards for example

Just as an FYI, in 23 or 24 (which I know you just mentioned you fixed), I never got the current park. We were able to edit it to the current name and get the current park. In 23 even entering Oriole Park at Camden Yards and T-Mobile Park for the Mariners didn't work but since I had most I was satisfied.
