Yep, more europe than anywhere else
but if you check the Olympic commitee list
the largest portion of the competing countries are from europe

so where probarbly as correst as we could be with just 28 teams.

Finally, we know who the nations are,
now the task of setting up the league itself............ but not today

Well actually yes today but after I've been to bed its 2.38 AM here
gotta catch some Z's.

Laters

Not to pile on, but Israel and Korea each have national teams as well.  If you need other nations to balance it out, the International Federation of American Football has a list of member nations at www.ifaf.info.

Sorry highquality, but I think what we have now is final :( Mykal I think 40 players per team would be perfect.

Overtime - sudden death

Just a note, if folks arent afraid to poke around in the maindata file, but you can add balls to the list. There is a table called 'Balls'.

And stop giggling people  [8D]

Yeah, I've created in the MAINDATA game balls for the XFL, USFL and WLAF. Very easy to do.

Rhino, I've hit a problem

was editing the stadium (quad deck) top 2 tears are an exact duplication of the lower 2 tears
so I thought lets shake that up a bit, which is what I usually do

But......................

buildings documents usually look like A (see sample)
yours looks like B (again see sample)

so anyway I located the reference to the "adds2" bitmap and changed it too "adds2a" and inserted a new graphic called adds2a
which the way I always do things (when editing the documents as in sample A)

Here's the problem : after I edit the document in any way at all, it obviously renders the file useless
as the top 2 tears are then no longer visible in the game.

What script reader do I need to be able to edit this gibberish type document ? without damaging it.

EDIT - No, I dont need the stadium again, before you ask [:D], I never edit without backing up first [:'(]

I don't know Mykal for some reason the X files do that and I have no idea how to fix it. I would ask Gary or Gil. I am working on a better stadium right now so if you can give me a day you can use that one.

Right, OK Buddy

if your using multi - tears, can you make sure that the higher levels have there own independant graphics
to avoid that, I must be drunk, I'm seeing double look when it duplicates, please.

If it helps you out, you can always leave the graphics blank (textureless) or duplicated (with different names)
and I'll see to graphics side of things for ya'.

Finally, 10 hours and 4 design attempts later
Here's Brazil

not all I hoped it would be but had to just settle in the end
my previous 3 attempts at something new just didnt work


Image

Just uploaded a slightly altered design for Brazil
done a little re-style on the Shoulders and sleeves
so if you've already taken Brazil it may be worth you downloading it again.............. sorry for the muck about
