White Flag - Comments

the “old way" is way way way more simpler (sorry, but how don't you know on your own page?)

first of all: the packs got updates, you even get a notice here when a pack you downloaded got an update. Most of the time they were faster than your 38 day example (especially bolid). Most of the kits in the kit-thread were sooner or later packed in a file, like for FM22 hammer9 and I did with the kits from German lower divisions.

 

In my opinion the old system offers everybody the option to choose the leagues he wants to download in a more precise way + the creator got a little credit. Also just my two pence to that, I think most of the people just don't update e.g. FM19 kits to like FM23 kits, because it causes a lot of problems (reason for SSKCC), especially with 3D kits. FM18/19 has different maps than FM20-23. Just speaking for me, but I just use the kits for the specific version, no older ones. With the old system also everybody can see e.g. Seria A 22-23 in a folder. Nobody needs to know if it is acmilan1.png, acm_1.png or milan_home.png, because the config does the part and every file has them in it. Even if you want to replace the old files, just delete the old folder and place the new folder. Simple.

 

Experienced users will face with the "new way" a lot of butthurt, my graphics folder is a fine pyramid e.g. in kits there are folders: 00Nations, AFC, CAF, CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, OFC, UEFA → each country has its own folder in these confederations and each league in the country folder. So it has a maximum of structure and I can easily change something by my own in seconds. Most names in the folders are clear, like I see zalgiris1.png in the ..\kits\UEFA\Lithuania\A Lyga folder is the first kit of Zalgiris, so if there is any updated image, I can just download that one image and replace it with the same name like the author did. Also it is easier to merge it with the FC12 files. Just place the specific folder in the right place or even pick some kits out and rename. Now it is just a big cloud of mixed files.

 

Megapacks are for the lazy ones. It is ok to give this option, but don't refuse to offer the old system as it was somehow perfect as it was. Also all the creators won't get their credits. It is a warm rain on the soul if you see how many times people downloaded your files or leave a small thanks.

 

Just wanted to mention, hammer9 did an awesome work to manage all these packs, I can understand to reduce his workload and don't want to kill his freetime 😀.

Also if anyone hasn't realised (and I'll try and make this clearer on the SS Kits page) if you have all the years named by year then the game will automatically pick up the latest one because it discovers them alphanumerically so if the latest kit for a particular ID it finds is in the 2016 folder it will use that one then if you add one in the 2022 that will overwrite with no manual effort from you.

 

So if you want all the kits you can download each year one by one and have them all on your computer.

 

If people are concerned about space we could produce a config that contains all the IDs and people can simply merge the folders themselves and then add the config, we wouldn't have to supply a seperate download of the images themselves.

The naming of the kits as ID has no relevance to downloading as nation vs all at once. We can change the names to use names if that's better, but it would be helpful to understand what it is you're trying to do and how you're using it.

 

Can you tell me what it is you're doing when looking at the names of the kits?

 

It's always been very difficult to merge packs over years since the names change with no system in place e.g. Man Utd home over the years has been called:

 

manu_1.png

manutd_1.png

man_utd_1.png

munited.home.iFrancesco10.png

manchester_1.png

manutd_h.png

 

The same is true for most clubs.

 

So its never been a case of easy drag and drop.

 

@White Flag same question to you since you mentioned having 19,500 kits so have obviously spent time managing them as well. What's your process for doing so?

@Jay Jay Max is there a reason you're submitting these in this thread rather than the submission system?

Thank you for the great job…!!!

 

Only one thing, you must do 2 XML, one for the 2d kits and another one for 3d kits. Just there is one for the 3d kits…

 

Thank you

(updated - all 240 x 240 kits to 414 x 414 kits)

Same. I'm having a problem downloading a file. @Qvordrup

@Footygamer There are no 5gb limit on mega. Instead there are a limit on how much you can download with a free account at one time depending on different things like bandwidth available etc., and all you have to do if you exceeds this is to wait and resume the download at a later point (usually a couple of hours) 👍

 

 

megasync should hold what is already downloaded eg 5gb and if you wait for the 5 and a half hours and start the download process again it should continue from where it stopped and finish the remaining 2.5gb

Update 2022.08 is now live and available to download 😀

2D ?
