08 kits working with FIFA 09 Demo!

At first I must say I apologize to open another thread but this is something that I think is very good to let the community know:

Well begining with the topic, I must say as a lot of us noticed, the kits can be viewed like this with the CM08:



Trying to make a 09 Kit, When I imported it with CM08 (the file 512*1024), I couldn't, with issues of the size. Then I tried to import it as 1024*1024, and didn't worked out looking like this:



But after I saw this issue, I thought I could give a try to a normal 08 kit to see what happens, and the result was this:



Then I said to myself "I think there's gonna be some issue in game, but let's give it a try", and when I tried to play a match, this is the surprise I've got...



08 kits @ FIFA 09!!!
Don't know if was kind of predictable seeing that the kit pattern was similar as 08, but without texture, but this is a really good surprise for me. So what do you think guys? We can make our 08 kits but this way:



And inserting it with CM08, looks like this



And the most important part, in game, looks finally as this:


With the texture included of the game

The kit's I used were @ 512*512, but I tested also 768*768 and I think obviously will work @ 1024*1024. If you can, give it a try and you'll see.

Rinaldo, please take a look and make a test of this thing to use it for CM09. Would be great if you count with this discovery, this thing would make easier the job for kitmakers!

So what do y'all think? Does it work the same way for you?

Great discouvery, but I still think that 09 kits have better proportions and are the easier way for kitmakers.

And by the way, how did you manage to import kits via CM08 anyway? It doesn't work for me, I can see the 09 kits, but I can only import 08 kits.

Just can be imported 08 kits, man, that's how I've managed this discovery. I cant import 09 kits, but it can be imported 08 kits. Of course you're right saying that 09 kits have better proportions, but that's why I suppose we can import and make look awesome 2gk and 3gk 08 kits ;)

Yeah, when you open CM08, click on Open - Select all, then u select the FIFA 09 Demo folder, then the fifa.db file and then the language file, and wait a few secs (yeah, a few) and voilá! You can import just 08 kits to the demo. But just that, you can see a lot of stuff, also the adboards and flags I think, when you go to the players' section there wants to crash the program but you click over Continue but you can't see players' info there.

Yes, I knew it. Moreover also the contrary is true. You made an year of stretch logos on the front and kits where you could simply use the Fifa 09 template also in fifa 08. Sorry, I found out this thing only one month ago, too late.
This is because the model is the same so there are no difference in where the games search for the kits points ;)
