Team Logos

Sox2013 · 03-12-2026, 01:06 PM

It appears that the game is now only reading logos that are in .oi format and not reading any .png files. I've made a ton of custom logos in past versions (25 and 26) that are not working correctly in newly created games even after copying them from my 26 logos folder into the 27 folder. Anybody else having this issue?

I had no trouble getting .png logo files to be read in OOTP27. Just placed them into the main logo folder and selected them when on the team page.

If you have an .oi logo file and a png logo file with the same name or date range, it will choose the .oi file over the .png.

I delete all .oi historical logos from the logos folder so it avoids that issue.

The game should really allow the option to assign a priority to files or folders. For example, I could put all of my historical logos in a different folder and tell the game to look there first for a logo. If it doesn't find what it is looking for, look in a different folder. That kind of thing

Not what you're asking, but if you start a game from advanced league setup you can select custom paths for almost everything including the name/world database.

Silvam......do the oi. files get added back after each update, or do you delete them every time?

millhousebc, every update installs the original files again. The updates are really re-installs and will overwrite any custom files and will add the deleted files back. Make a batch file to do the work after every update. Use a "backup data" folder to store any custom files.

Yep, kind of dumb to be honest. Maybe put an option to install logos/uniform files before updating
