How to get arena in game.......(cont..from jersey issue)

[Teej2005]

I am using a good tutorial and am doing everything correctly but for some reason, my numbers look like a badly distorted television as soon as I import it into the .fsh file. I spent like 2 hours doing the numbers just to have technical difficulties......



New Topic June 5, 2006.

I have a team, I have artwork, I made a stadium, and now I need to know how to associate the team to the stadium for in game play. I also did an 'arena' preview and edited the .ebo for the arena. But, what else do I need to do to make the arena.big communicate with the stadium.viv, to communicate with the team ID???

ah. you just just export number fshs and then import them back.
you need to use the program fshline. to use it you download it, and then after you export a numbers file using EA Graph, right click on the file and open with fshline, which will create a new folder with all the pngs and dds, you only need to edit the pngs. .when you are done you just simpily go into the numbers folder, and click on the first file in the folder and open with fshline. that will automatically zip everything back into the orignal fsh file. after that you put the fsh file back into sgsm and you are all set.

Okay, I have dolphin live 2.0 and FshX.. "fshline" is a different program?? Also, I do have EA Graph.

I also have a very weird jersey issue going on. Somehow, the image flipped in the game.

[Jing]

yep, download it here

Okay I downloaded it but it looks like its a DOS program?

[Jing]

yea but just leave it as it is.
you never really click on it. instead you click on the fsh file with all the #s and use with Open With to use fshline.

[Teej2005]

Another program said to only edit the back numbers... does this method require editing both front and back?

[Jing]

no. the smaller png # files are the front, the big ones are the ones on the back. so u can choose which to edit and whatnot

btw get on like messenger, perferable msn or aim, cause this really sint a good way to communicate.

Teej2005, just so you know, you don't have to start a new thread for every patching issue you have making your custom team, you could keep it to one.

[Teej2005]

As each issue changes, so does the need for the help. Some people 'like yourself' may not have the answers the to certain questions, though do have the answers to others . As the thread gets longer and longer, the views get less looked at by new people based solely on the subject of the thread.

Trust me, I use the search option all the time so that I dont make a question redundant. However, as complete as some of the help is, there are other issues that just havent been covered as I would like...so I post.

Take stadiums for example. Theres one post with a reference to adjusting a stadium in the live 05 forum but the instruction is very vague, isnt specific to 06 (coloring the floor) and it does not cover how to associate the stadium to your team... so I post it here.

Yes, and you can change the title of your threads to reflect your new question. Trust me please, it's much better that way. It would be different if all your threads were about something completely different, like:

1) bunnies
2) custom team editing
3) hershey's syrup
4) spud webb

But they're all about editing your custom team. No need for a new thread for each new part of the problem.

The questions might not be redundant, but the threads are.
