Player pic and Stadium photo ... jackpot

[Pete4256]

I am new to all these addons from BM, so maybe everyone else knows of this site.

But I haven't seen it mentioned. It looks to have every MLB player pic from the last 4 years. There a dozen or so Player packs from 1927 to 1986.

Ballpark pics for every stadium (great looking) ... they just need some ballplayers pasted onto them (IMO).

Player pack are here:

Stadiums are here:

Dude! Great find!

freaking awesome work, great find

won't all of the photos need to be renamed though, they don't use Lahman IDs

[Pete4256]

No need to change to the "Lahman ID"

Just change the players name from:

"Alfredo_Simon"

Change it to the first 10 letters of the name:

"AlfredoSim"

So there is nothing to look up.
Just put the pics in your Photos\Portraits folder


If you already have a pic in your folder using the Lahman ID, then that is pic the game will use.

It's fast and it's easy.

BTW - I am working on renaming the 1975 pack

If you are changing format, I strongly advise changing them to lahman id. That way you don't have pictures being used for players with the same name in a completely different era. Plus, Clay has expressed an interest in phasing out other naming methods. It also looks like the pictures may need to be resized/croped (or else the game will just shrink/stretch them)

As always great work Pete

Until the format changes .. maybe next year, the pics work as I described.

The pics are what they are size wise ... very small 120x140

Their size and shape are perfect for BM and every player is there for each year represented. The smaller pics size takes up less HD space.

Judge for yourself, here is an example:

Where do you get configuration settings for the new stadium pics? The stadiums are loaded and I see the pictures but the ball doesn't move correctly and the distances look screwed up? Can someone help?
