Just when you think the mods here can't outdo themselves more than they have....

Cheers! The game is so much better with mods like these !

Here are the facers I made for each of the mods and the instructions I gave the user because in a Steam Mod, you can't "swap" the /logo folder and as you noted there is always the risk of a patch overwriting things and restoring the conflicting .oi files. Once I spent some time working through it, it's pretty easy to toggle between multiple logo sets. Here are the Steam instructions, but once you get your set as a subfolder to /logos, it is never overwritten and easy to move in and out of within a game and easy to have different logo sets (using the same name for auto-loading) in different individual games.

"To toggle between and load alternative logo sets in-game 1) Go to Game Settings>Database, 2) On the righthand side of the screen, it will say “This game uses the logos folder [file location]”, hit the “Edit…” button 3) You will see the subfolder /Embroidered Logos, click it and then hit the “Select” button 5) Go to the Player & Teams tab while still in Game Settings, 6) On the righthand side of the screen, select Reset all … “Team Logos”. All the Embroidered Logos should load. They will continue to load as you advance through time. To return to the default logos, just return the Database tab and navigate back “Up” into the default folder and repeat the Reset Team Logos process. Flipping between logo sets is that easy."

Hopefully more people come by with it up on Steam as I put a link back here. Really, great work.

Have you experienced that sometimes even this method will not update all logos, namely League Logos ?

I have my updated Outlined set ready to roll for 2026 which now includes ALL minor league and independent league teams, but am finding after creating a league, reseting and/or force updating logos, that some League logos will refuse to update, for example Pacific Coast League. I have an updated logo with the correct naming convention - it will even update if I go into the League settings and auto-reload. So weird...

I know there are ways "around" this - like going into the save folder and wiping out the logos in news/html/images/team or league logos, but I like to have instructions for players as simple as possible.

Also in 2026 I noticed the game will not let you just replace or change the Logos default folder like I could in 2025, it prompts and auto reinstall of game files anytime I do, which just sticks all the .oi Logo files back in the folder.

MLB Historical Outlined for OOTP2026 - V1.00
• Missing historical logos for Boston Bees, Chicago Cubs (1915) and New York Mets (81-92) added.
• Corrected a few naming conventions preventing loading for the Reds and Dodgers.
• Added logos for ALL CURRENT MiLB teams and league associations !
• Set now includes a comparable logo for every logo (team) that ships with default OOTP, so this set can now fully replace
your default logo set.

No, I tested it with the Embroidered and all the logos got loaded. The repointing of the logo folder location to a custom folder is great because it doesn't make it the default for all the games and so different game can run different logo styles and not trip on each other.

Also, by making it a subfolder in /logos it is easy to navigate to and the game doesn't save over anything or add back .oi files in the subfolder for the MLB teams that might conflict. So, I determined that was the best approach for it.

Great ! Thanks again for all your help, it's greatly appreciated, I love how awesome this community is !

Beginning work on getting updated Cardboard and Embroidered effect sets with complete minors over the next few days (maybe week or two lol) - they take quite awhile to make. But I've been wanting to do the minors teams for a few years now, going to finally dive in and put the work in ;P

My ambitious goal later this year is to add historical minors in as well to all sets.

Just wrapped up updates to the Cardboard logo set, will release soon as well as a 1.1 update for the Outlined set.

Working through the Embroidered set now with MAJOR revisions. Painfully going through each logo to update ones I originally weren't happy with as well as brightening up every single logo. I think OOTP when it compresses the logos distorts the effect to make it seem darker (it can't handle the detail), so I've done my best to make the logos brighter on screen.

As with the Outlined set, these sets will also have complete Minors and a comparative logo for every single logo that OOTP ships with. I've also added some goodies in there like Fall league logos and some Negro league logos I could find.

Embroidered set still looks great in game. I'm using them in my historical MLB league, which is currently in 1985. I'm sure the next version will look even better. Thanks for doing these.

Thank you Cheo, glad you like them !

A lot of the "single letter" logos looked a little forced and dark, I tried to make these look more fabric/twill texture and brightened them up for darker backgrounds. Hopefully everyone likes the changes when I release them !

Attached an example (Detroit 1930's)

Hoping to get these both released by the end of the weekend or Monday at the latest !

Thinking of following up this project with one I've wanted to tackle for years, a set dedicated to cap logos in an embroidered style. But I DO want to actually play the game at some point and this is a another extensive undertaking. Gonna do some and see what I think. Example attached.
Also how to handle early MLB years where teams didn't have logos on their caps yet is tricky, I was thinking of just using the Primary for those years in the same style .
