Oh wow so
@Jbou41 being the fastest gunslinger this side of the Mississippi that he is, already releases an update
Originally I had thought that while he was working on the DB, I was slowly but surely working on the graphics, and eventually both would be released as the update (since additional kits or jersey name case needs to be edited with the DB too), but oh well.
Basically, being the detail maniac that I am, I have been improving every graphical aspect to make it more consistent with the Champions League matches of that season.
For example:
- Adboards
Assigned extended region specific adboards (e.g. UniCredit in Cyrillic for Russian teams, HypoVereinsbank for German ones, etc).
- Balls
Original addon had Finale balls. Of course it needs both group stage and Finale for the complete package; the ultimate goal would be having both domestic and UEFA balls for each season (
@DeWoo might chip in here).
- Kits, jerseyfonts and kitnumbers
To follow the original CP concept, where UCL/UEL is the primary focus, I've been searching, editing and converting UEFA graphics for the teams where I can find it; the ultimate goal would be having UCL + domestic + Final (when applicable) kits for all teams.
- Tournament dressing
Every UCL season from 2005 to 2020 has been assigned an authentic dressing.
I have also been working on recreating every UCL Final's dressing for 2005-10, now movig to 2011-20:
- Stadiums
Added real stadiums to teams with generic ones. Easy solution: take the stadium with all IDs properly assigned from HBZ mod (e.g. Leicester Stadium, ID 335) and create a new stadium in CP 2010-20 DB with the ID 335; use the same files and share the stadium between the two mods.
- Boots
An attentive eye will see that most if not all players in these screenshots are wearing year appropriate boots. I am close to completing the Sputnik 2010-2020 addon.
Although I do admit that I stopped following the boots game around 2014, so I there's a lot of research happening now with my bootpack, trying to find put who wore what and when.
So if you are knowledeable about the boots between 2015 and 2020, or if you have the rx3s already, feel free to contribute.
Also would be nice to have someone who knows GK Gloves to provide some info on who wore what.
Same applies to all other areas too - we are a community here, and team effort always helps!
@valambrosio2 is doing awesome job with the extended mod too, and of course the more people working together the better.
UPD: of course, if you are a complete authenticity freak like me who has assigned 33 pairs of unique boots to CR7 already, you might also want to edit the fan banners (e.g. Chelsea, being the team I support since 2004, change Torres 9 El Nino for Diego Costa the Guv'nor, Big Pete, Drogba Legend, Super Frankie Lampard etc depending on which season we're talking about), add realistic warmup benchplayers and real managers
(
@Re_coded might chip in with the latter)
