Awesome, though I recon it will take some time for me to download it.

Do all the logos have the new white outline?


Edit: Actually at least Deposit files does not require as long wait between downloads as I thoght it would, so may be getting the pack doesn't take so long after all.

I'm getting cramps on my finger for clicking the dam mouse button.

I sent you a PM - there may be a remedy for those cramps.

Yes i'm using it but it's gonna take a bit.

It will take some time with so many logos, but its not very labour intensive.

No just the logos i did, and some that are not updated, i overwrote the ones that where allready resized by background logos, so i need to resize about 40.000 logos to the correct sizes off small, and mac(@2x)

Then it should not be a big problem. Are you familiar with Photoshop's automation feature?

Just realised i did a huge mistake with the small and mac logos, gotta redo them all. Lucky for me i keep a copy of the logos in 510x510 so it's gonna be a high workload but fast.

Does any of this concern the Italian logos as well (probably not)?

Also, if the 510x510 logos are just of wrong size, its very simple to use batch automation to resize all of them with just a few clicks.

Two differrent players have essentially the same picture (the person in the images is the Cagliari player Alessio Murgia):

Alessio Murgia (Cagliari)

and

Alessandro Murgia (Lazio)
http://sortitoutsi.net/search/cutout/43159417


This is the actual Alessandro Murgia (back row 2nd from the right between the blond and the beardo). Not very good source - maybe someone can find better.

In FM14, all of them - FM15 will have all of them too, but it will take some time as there are hundreds of new ones.

You have done a huge amount of work, but I guess you are talking about active clubs? There are Italian logos missing from "past winners" pages that have been unchanged from FM14 to FM15.

With the addition of stadium screens with lists of teams that have played on the stadiums in the past, it has become a bit of a problem to find sources for all the logos that are visible in the game.

What I will say though is that the size of their logos rarely matters tbh, you just need to look at the quality and you can tell if it's from a bigger, better source and then you just got to go and find it - I never use a 150px logo without checking for a better version and thats true of every logo I make.

Thank goodness for Facebook is becoming my mantra

I have been involved in the Shiny logo project making Italian club logos, and the background image width in that pack is 300px. The size of 150px raster image just cannot be increased that much without losing too much quality. So I have been making quite a few logos essentially from scratch...

Tuttocampo.it is a good source for Italian logos as well, but it often comes up in Google searches so you cannot have missed it.

Scudettitalia is a very good site. Too bad the logos there are too small to be directly used in FM.

Kremmen, how many Italian clubs have logos in your pack? It must be pretty impressive number.

Yes, but that logo has been treated

The old Monza logo looks quite similar, so its easy to use it as a base to create the Brugherio logo.

Thank you.
You was mentioned there is a 2x folder where the resolution for small icon is doubled. I have downloaded the full FM14 magapack but I cannot find the 2x folder. Could you please let know where to get the 2x folder please?

Thanks

It was a change from FM14 to FM15, so Shiny14 does not have it. When Shiny15 is released, it will have the @2x folder and files.

yes is it possible i put the logos in the wrong sports interactive file in my documents?

Make sure you have unpacked the logos to the FM folder of the game you are using. If you have, say, FM14 and FM15, and you are playing FM15, the logos should obviously go to the FM15 folder.

Does your folder structure look like this:
My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2015\graphics\Shiny 14 Megapack

Inside the "Shiny 14 Megapack" directory should be folders Clubs, Competition, Confederations, Default, flags and Nations. Which in turn should contain folders that have .png and .xml files in them.


Other thing to check is that folder location in preferences -> overview within the game is the same FM folder where you have installed the logopack:
My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2015\

Can someone please help me sort it out?

Did you untick the "use caching to decrease page loading times" before reloading the skin?

Hi shifter1.

Have you taken into account that the FM15 (and earlier versions I'm sure) default skin resizes the logos to considerably smaller size than they are in the pack - even on the club details screen. Perhaps trying a skin that uses the logos in their full or at least larger size would help with your issue?

Good and bad news.
The good:
Got the game been seeing the changes and analysing the graphics.
The bad:
It seems they changed something there is another size of logos with the small, so there's another size to resize the logos, so it's more work. Also still testing the logos to see if they work on the game. I have some reports that some stuff doesn't work from 14 to 15.

More news later or tomorrow.

Are the small logos of different size than before, or is there a new size displayed on some screen? Could it be a UI bug where the game does not automatically resize the logo even though it should? I don't have the game yet...

So i cant use it in football manager 2012, right? Sorry for stupid questions, i just bought fm2012 and im trying to download facepacks, logos and fix text size so my brain is storming with confusion. -_-

I think it should work, but there are probably clubs/competitions/etc. that have had their ids changed between FM12 and FM14. Those logos will not appear in your game. I don't know how many ids have changed, but if its many, it might be better to try to find a logopack that was built for FM12.

OK after some info by hammer and seeing ducc's work i can say Shiny 15 is on. Gonna start the base work next week.
ALso i would like to know the opinion of everybody on keeping or changing the name of the logos.

Good.

Since you are asking about changing the name, you probably have an idea?

I have a very old version of the pack, so I'm not sure what sort of logo Brescello now has in it. This seems to be the version used in most places on the net. All the source images I was able to find were of very low quality, so I made one myself. Having read some of the "Don Camillo" stories (the main characters are featured on the emblem), the logo was so fun to create that I'll post it here.

Brescello (FM14 id: 1112):

I might do a comeback depending on my health, been a rough year for me. Let me see if i have the energy to do the FM 15 pack, but if i do it will be from scratch so might take a while and lots of logos will be missing.

Sorry to hear you have not been well. Obviously this logopack isn't something you are obliged to do, especially if it wears you out. If you do feel up to the task however, I hope the Italian logos I have posted are included. As I said before, I'm also making some more of them, so its not like you would have to do everything by yourself. I will concentrate only on the Italian league though.

gonna have new updates?

I'm in the process of creating logos of clubs from below the Italian Serie D level, but I don't think I will release any before the game comes out and I can check all the ids. On a more general note, NunoKopio, who started this thread, is on a hiatus and likely won't make Shiny 15 logopack. Hopefully hammer9 or someone will collect all the new logos posted here and releases a new version of the entire pack.

Could you upload Italian logos (Serie D especially, but also A, B and C if you have time ) somewhere else? Speedyshare, sendspace? I can't download anything from gamefront. Thanks

Gamefront is having some sort of hickup, as I can't seem to access the files either. Here are all the Italian Shiny logos I have uploaded earlier in one package: Speedyshare Download

Is this one in the pack? Noventa Padovana (FM14 id:43156925)
http://2012.torneodisolesino.it/files/Image/logo_noventa_calcio.png


5291 clubs, actives and not

In your estimation, is the scouting in Italy thorough enough for Serie D to be active in the game without any db related side-effects?

Yes, I am an assistant researcher of the Italian db. I've created new teams along with another researcher. There were also some changes on the old teams. We must re-check all the teams.

That sounds cool. The Italian leagues are my favourite in FM.

This probably isn't the place to talk about it, but I hope you somewhat boosted Crema 1908. They were taken over by some apparently not miniscule business interest, and have invested in their current squad as well as youth development.

Thanks for the info, I'm actually currently "fact finding" to create some more Italian lower league logos in the future.

The new id's will only be for the FM15 release of the game - sometimes i use both id's but that just confuses me when looking through my master folder

I have been making some Italian league "Shiny" logos, and it now looks like I will have to go through every single one of them again, and not just the ones whose ids I wasn't sure of, once I get FM15. Its not that many, but dammit!
