Rugby 08 Patch Team

does it matter that my new roster comes up as a RAR file type, and an original roster from the game comes up as a ROS file?

You need to extract the contents of the rar file using a program like winrar (http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm) into the Rugby 08 save directory in My Documents.

Hey Woosaah or anyone who can help me...............

I used wDOLFFIN2.1.b & BigGui to extract the Sharks kit files:

Home Kit: 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big
Away kit: 75cd49b0d24bab6b8156663d1969a527.big

I want to change the Sharks home kit's pants.....from white to black because they never wore white pants.

Anyway........

1) I opened the rugby 08 data file using BigGui, then exported both files 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big & 75cd49b0d24bab6b8156663d1969a527.big

2) I opened the away kit using wDOLFFIN2.1.b, opened the png file in photoshop, copied the pants section and saved the pants pic.

3) I exported the home kit, opened the png file in photoshop, took the pants pic I saved from their away kit and pasted it over the home kits pants.

4) Then I imported the kit.png file back into the 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big using wDOLFFIN2.1.b.

5) Then I used the BigGui and imported the new 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big file back into the data file of rugby 08, compressed the new 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big file.

But when I go to play a game the Sharks still have their white shorts in home games!!??

I'm obviously not doing something right...can anyone please help me out?

(one more thing...when i try save the 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big file once Iv'e imported the new kit.png file, when I press "save as"....there is no file type to select from...its blank. So when I save the file size is 0kb.) So I dont save but it seems to be updated because when I close wDOLFFIN2.1.b and reopen it and open the edited 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big file and check the kit....it has the new png file which i edited.)

Thanks a lot guys.....

I'm not entirely sure on this but I think this is probably right: When you have created the shirts to the correct format (probably fsh or something) you don't need to put them back into the gob file. If you just put the file you've made into the root installation directory it'll work, I think. It's been like that since Rugby 05 so it's probably still the same.

If, like you say, the BIG file has the correct PNG inside it (the edited kit) then just pop the BIG file in your Rugby 08 installation directory (Default C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\EA SPORTS™ Rugby 08\) and the game should 'pick it up' from there rather than the GOB file.

I got it right!

Saved the teams kit picture as a .bmp file in photoshop, imported back into teams kit. Then put the edited 4e17350bc09ad8696b882907d5660ca0.big file into EA Sports\EA SPORTSâ"¢ Rugby 08 folder.

This site rocks, Thanks for the help lazy_chesnut!!!

Well, what can I say? We aim to please....

 

[Rockstar]

My next question.......

How do you edit the teams kit so it shows u correctly on the "Teams Select" screen. The Sharks pants are still white on this screen but black when you play the game.

How can we edit it so its also black on the "Teams Select" Screen? Which file do we edit?

 

[BOKean]

hey rockstar - can i have the black sharks pants?

 

[Rockstar]

Of course you can BOKean,......ummm how do I do that? Do u have a general e-mail?

 

[Rockstar]

Do you know what software I can use to edit .fsh files?

Have a look on Google for FSHEd or something like that.

I did.........what a mission but finally got. Shot

I would like to know if someone is trying to edit Challenge Mode in order to historically recreate kits and roster.
This would give a great boost to the gameplay. I mean: playing the 1991 RWC with Horan , Little, Kearns...
And also if it is posible to do this without altering the teams in the other game modes. Thanks for your effort . Cheers,

Battling with the Team Select Screen!!!!!!!

I can either import the kit or the alpha image.....it wont let me import both one overrides the other one!! WHY!!!???

Goin crazy!!!! Please help guys.

 

[EVOL]

thats why you are supposed to use png, you dont need a seperate alpha file

Thats what I thought... but when u export the image for some reason its loses the background-only exports the kit on a grey background.

Do u have a step by step guide because I have tried everything.

 

[EVOL]

are you sure thats not the transparency, your talking about the team select kits aye
