Ah OK. I don't follow the Olympics THAT much and closely, so I didn't know for sure

Depending on the amount of countries participating and due to the nature of the sport qualification rounds could take up to a year before the games. I think the idea here is to guess what teams would make it to the actual olympic tournament

Ok Mykal I sent you the stadium. You can decide if you want to use it or not. Also if you want me to make more I can. I had an idea for the league file. It would be like the real Olympics where you have to qualify. You could set up the schedule so say there are 32 countries. Then you would have four 8 team divisions. Then they could play everyone in there division once like a round robin format. The best and/or second best team in each division goes to the Olympics. That way you don't have 32 teams and you have to "make it" to the Olympics. I think it would be more fun that way. If this made sense what do you think?

Yep Im following ya' and sounds ok but aint that more or less just like the regular season and the play offs
just in this case the playoffs is the Olympics.

Edit - Oh Brother, I forgot about the Stadium, please excuse my rudeness
(just got up out of bed, late one stayed up watching the Buccs beat the Pats)

Thanks for the Stadium Rhino, I'll giv it a Test see how it looks and if it plays OK without slowing my game down.

Ah Lad! You need to have a team from the Republic of Ireland.

Stadium actually worked fine,
I ran it without cleaning up first and left some background programs running
it still worked OK, which is a good thing
If I clean up and switch off the background programs, I should be able to add some extra's without problems
I went with American Amatuer Size field (olympics is amatuer only I believe)
adding in Gary's Track along with some cheerleaders should be no trouble
plus I'll add in Gils Band but edit out the band and add in some track and field athlete's warming up etc.

Then we should look something like, all that will need doing then is a few country flags hanging over the barriers
and the place will look great.

Cheers Rhino, the Stadium will do fine, excellent.

IDK... That one's gonna' have to grow on me...

Actually I took at look at it in gameplay,
nothing wrong with it, looks fine

still not got that new PC yet, still saving hard trying to raise that £950 (you can double that for Dollars more or less)
I'm getting there though, last time I checked my bank acount I had £700 saved, about another month and I should be ready.

 
I understand that their is VAT there, but why so much for a PC?  I could build a monster for far less than that in the States.

Well actually it will be a monster machine, like none I've ever seen off the shelf over here, having it built to my own spec
PRICE......... yes things are much cheaper over in the US, we get totally creamed on stuff over here.

I bought 2 XBOX 360's one from the UK and had one air-mailed from the US
even including shipping and customs duty when it entered the country
the American XBOX 360 was still £80 cheaper (about $155 US cheaper)

The next inductee into Olympia-Bowl

Anyone know why Australia sport teams always run out in Yellow & Green
puzzling as Yellow & Green aint even in the Flag.

Anyway here they are............. in Yellow & Green

Looks good Mykal and I may have some more stadiums for you so you have more options.

Kewl, more is always better
any objection if I add them in on site
as part of the whole package (after I've edited them a little)

I'll have to do us a Ball aswell, not that you see the graphics on the ball very well
but we should still have an Olympia-Bowl Ball all the same.

gonna hav to put this on hold for a day or 2
had some uniforms requested, so I'll hav to get them done first
then come back to this.

Ok that's fine I may have to delay the stadiums as well Game Space is acting up so I need to figure it out.

Hey Rhino, what kind of issues are you having with Gamespace. My main problem is it crashes when im applying textures.
That has pretty much kept me from building more stadiums.

I am just having trouble saving stuff in X format other than that it's fine. I have had to start editing other peoples stadiums becuase of it which really stinks.
