disregard I saw the previous post about it being ok to use png and I tried that and it worked.

I'm having issues doing this—saved a uniform intending to work on it later, but it saves as a "File" that the Uniform Maker doesn't recognize when I open it back up, so I can't load it back in. Anyone else have this issue?

The file you want to reload is the .uni file inside the zip file that the app generates.

[eriqjaffe]

But now that I think of it...

0.8.11 has been released

What's New

• Uniforms (and palettes) can now be reloaded directly from the .zip file created by the app.

Will this program create the file for jersey fonts? I want to eventually add color correct font files for older jerseys

Yes.

I tried to download this the other day. I don't know code so I couldn't figure it out. If someone could give me step by step instructions how to download it from the link provided (which seems to be a list of codes) I'll give it a second go otherwise it's useless for me

Each of the release announcements links directly to the binaries page for the release. And as I mentioned in the first post of the thread...

• Windows users will want either the OOTP.Uniform.Maker.x.x.x.setup.exe or the OOTP.Uniform.Maker_x.x.x_portable.exe. The "setup" installs like any other program, the "portable" just runs directly from wherever the file is.
• macOS users will want the OOTP.Uniform.Maker-x.x.x.dmg file. That's a standard macOS "disk image" file.
• Linux users will want the OOTP-Uniform-Maker-x.x.x.x86_64.rpm or OOTP-Uniform-Maker_x.x.x_amd64.deb file depending on whether they're running a RedHat or Debian derivative.

Hey, I have an issue where I download just the jersey, but when I try to load it into OOTP 24, it doesn't load. Is this an issue regarding the jerseys or the game?

Everything works fine for me. When you save just the jersey it gets generated as a zip file, which OOTP can't load directly. So if you're trying to load the zip file, make sure you unzip it first - there's a README file that gets included in the zip that explains what OOTP is doing and the best practices.

looks like I'm getting into the jersey making business. thanks again.

I'm getting up to speed with 24, and I have started using the current Uniform Maker, but I'm running into issues that may be already known or not.
-First, I'm not able to get files created in older versions to open. I think I have a decent workaround (open the flat png in PS/GIMP, delete the numbers, save, use as a custom layer), but is compatibility a known issue?
-Are front numbers dead and gone, or will they be coming back?

Yes, it is. Opening only reliably works for uniforms created with the same version of the app. The app should warn you about that though.

Dead and gone to avoid future conflicts, but you could always import a PNG file and just place it where you want.

eriqjaffe, I noticed someone above mentioned they're having issues loading a jersey. I as well, on a Mac, for the first time with uniform maker. Previous versions have always worked. For example, If I just open the maker an automatically click "save uniform" without making/adjusting anything, it loads. But if I do anything more than a minor adjustment like a color change, i.e. if I load an image to create a patch, then click "save uniform", the "generating uniform" queue endlessly spins. Just thought wanted to share.

[augustus_gloop]

Longtime user, first time caller! I noticed that the colors.xml weren't loading the unis in the game. Turns out, the app creates a reference to 'filname' not filename for each of the uniform elements. This is present in 0.8.11.

Such a lovely software, by the way. Thank you for all the dev time and the fun you've given me in making these uniforms.

Hey Eric
I used to play in a league with you years ago. I was the Minnesota Beermen.
Anyway, I LOVE the unform maker, but I have one problem. The webp page for fonts does not appear to be included in the zip file that gets created on save. Where do I find it? I'm not sure where it is.

[kcroyalgm]

Ah
It's being saved as a png file, not a webp file.
So I think I am good.

I have to say, I've never had an issue like you're describing. If previous versions work, of course, you can always grab a previous version from the Releases page.

The files look OK to me, and I haven't changed anything since I first added the XML files - can you post one so I can take a looK?

Yeah, I was doing webp files at first but decided it wasn't worth having the extra library when it doesn't actually matter to the game.
