Air New Zealand Cup Mod

[tommowins]

I'll have a check. Progress with minikits is really slow because Eric has French photoshop. We spent about half-an-hour him trying to tell me to press the 'product' button until finally the penny dropped that product is French for multiply .

Even though this is happening he is really trying to help me which I appreciate. Also the timezone difference is a *****. Once again, really sorry about the slow progress, because this is the last thing to do.

P.S. In my spare time I played some play now matches and I found it a lot harder than other games. Instead of All Blacks 62-0 RSA it was like this Taranaki 14-3 Tasman. Instead of a tryfest it seemed just like a good game. It was really nice :bravo:.

I get an error message when I try extract the zip.

Owell, I'll just wait till the full download is ready.

The full version shouldn't be too far off we just gota do a bit of testing and stuff to make sure it doesn't crash and figure out any bugs. If anyone has found any bugs just post them up here and we'll see what we can do?.

 

[tommowins]

yeah try to wait for the full version which, i think, we will upload to the downloads section. We'll tell you when!

Here is the link to a new set of Air NZ Cup Logos - and .english file.

Only the logos and team names for the English and Italian Club teams have been replaced in this update - so the French, Scottish and Welsh teams remain as per usual.

an update on minitkits. I've done 4 so far but 3 were done in the last 3 hours, plus Waikato was really hard. I have most of tommorrow so am hoping to have 9 or 10 done by end of tomorrow!

Is anyone doing the kits for the Australian comp? I've got alot of time on my hands at the moment and could help out. I've also been editing the ANZ Cup kits I made just tweaking them with things like colouring the Auckland no.16-22 in red and adding the wizard logo to the top of the kitback.

I've also coloured in the Otago kitback numbers in yellow, put the union logo on the Waikato fronts. Coloured the top of the Tasman Mako socks red like they should be and a whole bunch of other stuff. They're not huge improvements but just trying to get as close to replica as I can. Anyway as soon as I think they're good enough to release I'll be posting them up here so look out for those.

I was also thinking that maybe later on I might make it so as the home kit will be the 07-08 kits while the away kit will be the 08-09 on some of the kits because I just got a Wellington Lions 08-09 replica jersey from the store yesterday and it looks the **** so I might do it.

 

[tommowins]

sounds good

Did you want me to do the new minikits? At the moment this is for all of the away minikits:

Simple, elegant but effective .

 

[tommowins]

DAMMIT! they should really increase the edit time from 10 minutes!

Would it be ok for me to keep that message for the unchanged away kits and have a different message/whole minikit for whichever ones you do?

 

[jawmalawm24]

I'm still deciding which 08-09 kits I might do because some of them are pretty difficult to make but as soon as I decide which ones I might have a go at I'll tell you.

 

[tommowins]

I guess you could just do Wellington + Auckland or just Wellington. I just finished the jerseys of the minikits and I am not really wanting to do more at the moment!

I still need to ask Eric about the logos and do them and I'll be done!

I am having problems with minikits. Its the white background. For anyone who knows minikits I deleted the background layer but this still happening. Here are some photo's below:

Any idea when this will be finished?

 

[ama1]

Hopefully it will be finished, in time for the start of the 2008 Air NZ cup. I am waiting for all the teams to announce their squads - so that the roster can be updated.
Just a quick note - is it possible to copy the home kits and rename them - so that they can be used as away kits?

When you make the minikits, if you use transparency, make sure you save it as png or psd. Anything else won't support tranparency.

Make sure you use a blank transparency to start with.

 

[tommowins]

well then FshED won't replace because it only does bmp,ico,wmf and emf files. It doesn't recognise png or psd.

 

[ama1]

.gif works with transparency. You need to have the gif importer for FshEd.

 

[tommowins]

sweet where do you get this

 

[ama1]

Find the NBA live series centre, or search for Fshed .gif importer plugin on google. There is also a file importer for Fshed which allows you to use many other formats.
