No idea there, I've never gotten a message like that. I double-checked that it works for me and re-uploaded it in case something got screwed up there.

I'm able to go into the team settings and view the 3D model there and adjust the camera angles, but for some reason when I tried to play a game it couldn't load the 3D and reverted to the 2D. I'll try re-downloading it and see what happens.

I figured out why it wasn't working. For whatever reason there were no camera views saved. Once I saved a new camera it uploaded just fine when starting a game. Dunkin' Donuts Park looks brilliant, thanks very much!

Ok...you are extremely talented. OOTP should hire you to do all the MLB parks.

Whoops! Thanks for catching that - I'm uploading an updated zip that should have the cameras in it now.

I’ve made a lot of use of these stadiums for fictional league.

Looking forward to your rendition of Modern Woodmen Park.

I found a model on the 3D Warehouse that I started messing with but I realized it would be so much work that I scrapped it and just started from scratch. I started going a little overboard modeling some of the buildings outside the park (even some that you probably won't see), but finally cut myself off. But I did come across a pretty neat site called CADMapper that will generate free SketchUp files covering up to 1 square kilometer, including terrain, roads, and 3D Buildings (using their real heights if possible). Neat!

I also spent a lot of time on the outfield, adding the party deck, grass embankment and tent/pergola area in right field, finding advertisements and the Championship Corner banner, and even recreating the buffalo distance markers on the walls in the corners.

My model can be downloaded here:

WOW !!! I've been to hundreds of games here. Brilliant work.

I'll second the FANTASTIC remark.
I can't draw a stick person ! Don't laugh. TY

Northeast Delta Dental Stadium, home of the New Hampshire Fisher Cats

Opened in 2005, the park sits along the Merrimack River (the large sign outside the park along the third-base line faces the river). The outfield is dominated by the 6-story (7 including the clock tower) Hilton Garden Inn, whose restaurant features patio seating overlooking center field and whose windows are shatterproof due to its proximity to the park.

Another field with cozy dimensions, the right-field line is only 306 feet away from home plate. This again may lead to some odd behavior with deep fly balls.

Awesome job like always!!!

Geez, this New Hampshire sketch is so good, I want to actually go on a vacation here and stay at that hotel

Hadlock Field, home of the Portland Sea Dogs

Opened in 1994, Hadlock Field is not only the home of the Sea Dogs, but also the home field for the Portland High School Bulldogs (Portland High's football stadium is just past the right-field wall of the park, although not modeled) and the Deering High School Rams. In 2003, when the club affiliated with the Boston Red Sox, a 30-foot wall known as the "Maine Monster" was erected in left field.

When the Sea Dogs hit a home run, a lighthouse rises in the midst of the center field batters' eye. Like the creepy baseball guy in Greater Nevada Stadium, this is visible at all times in the model.

The Portland Exposition Center, just outside the park along the first-base line, is the second-oldest arena in continuous use in the United States.

Looking forward to all of your Eastern League ballparks being done. I'm going to start an Eastern League dynasty.

The detail you put into your work here is beyond reproach! This is my favorite thread by far!

[Bub13]

Fantastic work! I live near Portland, and you can't tell Hadlock is a pretty little park by driving past on the highway (just beyond LF). This is really nice.

The Expo is also the home to the Maine Red Claws who are the Boston Celtics minor league team

eriqjaffe - do you have any plans to do The Diamond in Richmond, VA? Home to the Richmond Flying Squirrels (AA) but also was home for the Richmond Braves (AAA)? Nielsoncp said you were working your way through AA stadiums, so I wanted to check. I live in Richmond and play a 90s league/season with the Braves. Your work is fantastic!

Yeah, and it will be relatively soon since I'm working my way through the Eastern League currently.

[Lawn Loaf]

OOTP needs to put you on payroll too!

[apreston48]

Woohoo! Can't wait to see the Eastern League stadiums, thanks!
