Adding outfits

Postby Rémi42 » 01 Jun 2022, 16:12

Good afternoon,

As an avid player of the Tennis Elbow series, especially the Managers for ten years, I wanted to mod TEM2 by adding some elements of Sam's Megapatch from TE2013. So far I haven't had any problems adding the 2D Courts following the instructions. I then tackled the outfits, it was a bit trickier but it worked very well for the faces of the players. But when I got to t-shirts, that's where it got stuck. The textures of all of Sam's Megapatch t-shirts are displayed correctly on TEM2 but the downside is that after the n32 t-shirt, the following textures are only displayed as tank tops, there are no longer any polo shirts or short sleeves. It's a bit of a shame, especially since players wearing tank tops are a minority on the tour.

Yet, I did copy/paste the line "Model = Tshirt01 etc Tshirt02 etc..." in the Male.ini file which is in the My Mod/Players/Textures folder as we can see on this screen, but in vain.

Do you know where the problem could come from? Should the Male.ini be placed in another folder? Or did I do something wrong?

( For clarification, I am French, maybe it will be easier for us to speak in French since we are both French. I can't post in french because i have this message "Your post looks too spamy for a new user, please remove bad words or non-english text").

Hello,

I had forgotten to remove the ".txt" of "male.ini.txt" in the Modding SDK. You can do that now and it should work as expected..! :yes:

Thank you very much for your answer, it works now!

Just two other quick questions while I'm at it:

1- Is it possible to modify the names of the personalized courts? For instance on this screen, I would've liked to change “Synthétique classique” to “Australian Open”.

2- Can we have more than 4 additional courts in the training club? From "CustomCourt05", there are no more names or logos displayed. The name of the court is empty and the logo takes that of Court01 (in this case RG at my place). And this even if I put a Menu/Art/ico logo named customcourt05 in .tga format. That said, it doesn't prevent the textures of additional court n°5 (and beyond) from working perfectly once in the game.

Well these are just details, it's not a big deal if there are no solutions. It's just to make it look better visually in career mode once the courts are assigned to tournaments. Basically, it doesn't prevent to play correctly.

1) You have to change the name in Lang_English.txt (and/or _French)

2) Yes, but you need to edit the .menu files, which is not easy (check Global.def 1st)
