Silvam parks with backgrounds

[endgame]

Did check that. It's easy to do, if you're used to extracting to a named directory. Wise up this version. Only folder inside those is Textures. That's supposed to be there, right?

Check the thread, Silvam's parks with background and 3D crowd. Find page 17 and towards the middle you will find the answer. Good luck. This all was happening to me.

Thanks to Txranger and Gambo for helping me figure this out. Adion, also tried to help.

Thanks, but see post 158 in this thread. My folders do not have another folder nested. What I may be missing is selecting the pictures step for day or night, but I don't recall ever having to do that previously. I'm confident I have no nested folder issue. Selecting the two pics is the only step I haven't done, so that may be it, though I don't understand why that's necessary. I'll give it a try though when I'm home later today.

When I click on my Arlington Stadium folder I get this.

I'm confident I'll see the same thing. Post when I get home later. Thanks

No need to load a day and night for 3D ballpark. Daytime pics and nighttime pics are for playing in broadcast mode (2D). The 3D object file goes where it says 3D model. Click that and find Arlington Stadium in your models folder. Click the folder and select the file that has an .obj extension after it. Click load. That should do it.

That's what I do, and the preview screen I posted is what I get. I'm stumped. I'll try to post a step by step process with screenshots later tonight and maybe a few sets of eyes can tell me where I'm going wrong or what's wrong. I've never had this occur before and, as I said earlier being aware of the nesting issue, took special care to ensure that did not happen.

Ok then. Another thing to try is to go to settings. Then the 3D & facegen tab.
There are some settings there if you look that pertain to the audience. 3, I believe. Try changing these settings until you see the crowd. Most report that you change detailed to simplified. Test these settings and see what you get. You must have the 3D park right or it wouldn't even show. Give it a try.

[endgame]

I will. Thanks.

I don't know what Arlington folder that is. All my Arlington stadiums have dates after the name.

[endgame]

He may have renamed it sometimes those long names need to be renamed in order to locate them properly in the menu when selecting stadiums or identifying them later in the same menu .

I am not sure I understand why the length of the park names makes a difference. I have a lot of long names and when I am in the edit screen and want to select a park from the select file for 3D Model the names show up fine with lots of room. What menu are you talking about that you can't identify them?

If this is really a problem, I need to know ASAP as I am just starting to update all the parks and they will have long names including the version number.

You're right. That was Silvam's old original. I just put that up to show. You are right. I do have yours 72-77 and 78-93.

And I also have Arlington 1972. I believe that is Silvam's original with the 3D crowd.

Don't think there is any problem. All the Arlington parks are ok.

I think what endgame is saying is if a folder has a long name say like

Angels park of Anaheim 1965-1972. (just an example)

It may read as Angels park of Ana........

So if you expand the window wider, then you can see the full name.
People may want to rename it something shorter so they can see the year without expanding the window.

No problem. You could also just mouse over the name and it should reveal the full name, anyway.

I'm specifically referring to the Select New 3D Model menu. Because of the length of file names- especially on my laptop -it's sometimes hard to identify exactly the park I'm looking for. No blame, no right or wrong, just the way it is. And if I recall, it's especially difficult to identify the park currently being used by a team, in that event.

And it might just be me.

On what screen is the Select New 3D Model menu? I have look at both model selections in the edit mode and they both come up with the big window.

Do you mean this area?



Maybe a smaller font size would help you see more.

[endgame]

I think so, but it seems to allow more room this year than last. I just recall being unable to clearly identify parks at certain junctures. I'm sure it's the smallest of issues, and may not even be one any longer.

That area is after the park has already been selected.
