Pesapallo stadium request

Nzsftbl · 10-02-2020, 03:23 PM

Hello all
I've seen some pesapallo (aka "Finnish baseball") mentions on the forum in various categories - but no 3D stadium yet, as far as I know.
Attaching an image that represents approx distance for a typical stadium.
Is anyone willing to try and design?
Thanks in advance...

Hei:

A 3D-pesis stadium would be hard to manage because the dimensions are way different than a regular baseball stadium and also, there are no real boundaries -- the ball is always in play -- though it would be cool.

The longest field depth is less than 150 ft., because the game wouldn't work [as well, at all?] if the fields were as large as ours. Though someone could make a dirt covered turf field with baseball dimensions, it would be cosmetic and not realistic.

Maybe someone will bite, though. Happy to see other fans of the Finnish national game floating around these forums!

I agree that there's no way to recreate 100% of pesapallo, in a baseball game.
However...I've tinkered with the league total modifiers to give a pesapallo-baseball hybrid, with few walks - avg. 2 per game (and few (avg. 3 per game) strikeouts and HBP; real pesapallo would have 0 for both); very few steals, balks and wild pitches/passed balls; more bunts; and recently - faster players.
One last thing that would add to the atmosphere/"realism," would be a stadium looking approximately like what I attached. The closest I could find, that exists - is the Polo Grounds. Too bad LCF/RCF are too close...
An OOTP field with no boundaries would have too many ITP HR, or too many HR in general. I think the field that I attached resembles a real pesapallo field, no? Never mind distance....
