creating a team

Postby KidJustin on Tue Sep 09, 2008 5:22 pm

I know/read all the tutorials on creating a custom team and i can do all those, but there are times when my custom team causes the game to crash

here's a checklist of what i gave my custom team, if i'm missing anything PLEASE let me know:

:arrow: added record in teams.dbf with unique TEAMNUM, TEAMABR2, TEAMABR4, Location
:arrow: added record for a custom court in location.dbf and added a .viv file in sgsm/stadia
:arrow: added/copied records in both player/appearance.dbf to fill roster
:arrow: created logos and added to sgsm folder listed here:
logos~large~XX_jsel.big
logos~large~XX_l.big
logos~medium~XX.big
logos~pause~XX.big
logos~port_lrg~XX.big
logos~port_lrg~XX_p.big
logos~roadtrip~XX.big
logos~score~XX_s.big
logos~teamlogos~XX.big
logos~wordmark~XX.big
**logos~large~XX_l.big <- i found this file again and imported it into the memoryfe.viv file in the "fe" folder
:arrow: created custom jerseys (put in sgsm/uniforms) and previews (put in sgsm)

yea thats about it.
i used some other teams speechid in the team.dbf
and the custom court also has speechid from a preexisting court

** the main crashes i get are when the custom team is away and it us during the openning sequence of the game being played (even if i skip it-it crashes)
-for some reason only against Team Adidas being home and custom team being away is good


Main question:
Am i missing anything that is causing the crash?

Sounds like there might be art files which are incorrectly named or missing.

everything is named correctly.

so i must be missing something, but what? i cant find anymore files that have the teamabrv...

could there be something i need to do with the dbfs in the saves? other than team, teamgear, player/apperance?


update: so after some troubleshooting i found out that my custom team only works on certain courts. them being decade all-star courts and 3 stripes
all of which are original files

Possibly location.dbf if you've specified a custom location ID.
