Congrats bopboppob, however, understand you have now entered a zone where you will watch countless hours fly by while you make uniforms [:)]

[SmilinJack]

Sweet!

PAINT! How dare you.

Really nice work. Uniform art is something I just plain stink. I make a living with Photoshop CS (photography and Video) but I stink trying to draw or paint.

If not for the FBMax unis and all the hard work these guys have put into these unis... well I'd have to call my league the

"You Must Be a Fifth Grader Football League"

Finger painting anyone.

How I envy you guys.

Now I got just two more ?s
 
1. How do I make the logos for the main menu, fields, the roster view etc.
 
2.I keep getting these blank fields and i don't know why i tired puting the field folder with grass etc. in each of the stadiums but it doesn't work

[SmilinJack]

Thanks Gary. Much appreciated. I dig these. Hollywood? Gold cleats? Oh...it's on.

Hollywood selects #1 overall . . . Reggie Bush, oooohhhh, ouch!

The Venom are these the same as seen on YouTube...I think one of Thornbirds vids?

Come on somebody? anybody? How do i get the logos in and what's with the no grass or turf field NOTE: It ain't snow.

[bassman58]

My suggestion is to download some field artwork from FBMax.com or look at the original artwork included in the game so you will know the proper sizes and background color. Look at the Winnepeg folder for the Teams_MFBL.

L1.bmp logo used for team selection screen, magenta background is transparent
L2.bmp team name used on various screens
L3A.bmp midfield logo L3B.bmp snowy midfield logo no longer used green background
L4A.bmp endzone logo(s) all B logos are not needed anymore
L5A.bmp endzone logo(s)
L6.bmp goalpost graphics

[bopboppob]

I know what the L files are i just want to know where to put them to get them into the game



NEVER MIND I GOT THEM IN NOW I AM THOUGH HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE FIELD AND GETTING THE GRASS AND TURF AND D GRASS SO ON AND SO FORTH THE WEATHER IS WORKING BUT THE FIELD NEVER SHOWS UP ANYMORE IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SOMEONE HELP.

[VCFL Commish]

put it in the team folder of the team you created also in that folder will be the home and away folders

[garysorrell]

The Venom are my creation, for the Las Vegas NCFL team.

However, I did not create the logo, so it may be in use elsewhere. The Venom uni you may have seen was in the vid on my youtube account showing Fred Biletnikoff actually outrunning someone for the winning TD.

Bopboppob,
Excellent work! Once you really get going doing uniform and field art you can spend lots of hours on it. It keeps you out of the honky tonks and pool halls- places that good young men should not be seen in.

Really though, I enjoy creating uniforms and field art and someday I hope to get really good at it. My stuff looks good but it's very basic design. There are some guys on this forum that are real artists with the various paint programs available. Some of the uniforms I've seen on this forum are very intricate and look fantastic.

Have fun with it. It's your game so create what you want and what you think looks good.
