Don't Know if someone else tested it yet, but for me it looks like stadiums have the same format as 07 ones.
I exported the Allianz Arena from Demo to Fifa 07 and it works perfectly :clapwap:

I think, if it's possible to use the new Allianz Arena with Fifa 07, it should be possible to import all the 07 Stadiums to Fifa 08 then :amika::amika::amika::amika:

Anyone else have taken a look?

That would be great news ;)

can you tell me where the files of the Allianz Arena are located?

The files are located in the zdata 2.
Files are m713__137_x.fsh to m720_137_x.fsh and the t266_137_x.fsh for textures. Same as in Fifa 07.

You can easily export them with Biggui...

Great news!!!!!!!1
Have you tested any other stadiums?How many stadiums are there in the Demo version ?
Thanks

:bob:

Imported White Hart Lane to FIFA 08 Demo, and it works Fine
Just copy the .fsh and .o files from Fifa 07 Stadium to the Fifa 08 Folder and give the files a number (like m713__xxx_1.o => m713__136_1.o and so on) and then you have to open the Database and make a new stadium entry. Copy the Allianz Arena and Change number to 136 ;) And Finally you have to assign a team to the new stadium
Tested it and it worked :):bob::bob::bob:

Same for Kits :)

Same for Kits :)i tried putting kit in data folder, filename t75__3_0_11.fsh and it still reads the one inside zdata...

try to edit the .cs file and change the name of files:D

Hi mate!

Would you be able to test UPTON PARK (made by Madangie) for me???

If you cannot do this, could you please make some screenshots of white hart lane in the demo?

Cheers pal!
<carrick>

can anybody make some screens from the stadiums? plz.

THANKS

Here's a Screen fro, WHL Stadium:

Had to resize it, because i have a slow connection atm. Will do some more screens and test Upton Park later...

looks good to me.

that looks awesome mate! (H)

Because of the slightly improved graphics in 08, i think the stadiums will look better (especially with a pitch that is actually green this time around!)

When you test Upton Park mate, would you be able to take some screens? Would be very grateful!

all the best Don
<carrick>

Here some more. One from WHL and the others from Upton Park, hope it is the right one :D

..I don`t see any picture ..:S

White Hart Lane in better Quality

and Upton:

Could you re-post the images mate, they aren't showing up!

Many thanks pal,
<carrick>

Any ideas why the pics arent showing? :|

I have many Questions, i hope you can help me....

which program do you use to import the fsh and o files from the new stadium, and in which big file you do it.

which program do you use to import the new stadium into the db file?

which program do you use for the new bh files?

i import a stadium, but when i see the start screen, i come back to my dekstop!

please help me, thanks!

Hm... no idea what's wrong with the pics...

Anyway, im doing and upload a little Stadium Patch tonight.

It will contain new Stadiums for all Teams in the Demo (except Bayern ;))

There will be:
SAN SIRO for Milan
VELODROME for Marseille
OLD TRAFFORD for ManU
NOU CAMP for Barca

all Stadiums made by EA

Plus White Hart Lane as Home of America and Upton Park for NY Red Bulls :P
Hope F4F and Mandangie won't have a Problem with it. Thanks to them for making such genious Stadiums!

To Rapidfan:
I don't change anything in the zdata. just impossible because of the missing fatgui. I put the .o and .fsh files directly in Fifa 08 Folder.

For the Database I use UNiDB and then add Stadiums with Access. DK if other Tools work too. didn't tested them. :)

Sounds awesome mate!

Sorry to be a pest, but would you be able to upload your Upton Park screenshots with imageshack and post them here? Would be very grateful!

all the best,
<carrick>

And here it is (hope it's working):

http://rapidshare.com/files/52724795/FIFA_08_Stadium_Patch.rar

All you have to do is unrar the Archive to your Fifa Demo Folder and click YES when you have to overwrite Fifa.db

This Patch will add some Stadiums to your Fifa. Use it with a fresh copy, to ensure it works.

I have a two year old P4 3.4GHz with 1Gig Ram and a ATI X3000SE and FIfa runs fluid. So hope there aren't much problems :)

As soon as there will be a fatgui i will import the Files to zdata :)

So have fun!

I did what you said an put the files in the FIFA 08 demo folder

However when i load up the game it is exactly the same as before, you can only play in the stadium that came with the demo

Are you sure this is all you have to do?

Do you use Demo Expander?
Demoexpander will choose automatically Allianz Arena.

For use with DemoExpander:

1.Open the local.ini in your Fifa Folder
2.Local.ini should look like this:

[]
RESOLUTION = 1024x768x32
QUALITY = 2
WINDOWED = 0
VIDEO = 0
NO_EXTRA_TIME = 0
NEVERENDING_GAME = 0
DO_CPU_SUB = 0
ONE_ON_ONE = 0
SKIP_FE = 0
[OPTIONS]
LINESMEN = 0
REFEREE = 1



3. Start the Demo from Shortcut on Desktop, do not use DemoExpander.
4. For High End PC's you can change RESOLUTION to 1280x1024x32 or 1600x1200x32

Havent even got demoexpander installed mate

Dont think the patch works

Sorry

Hey you,
Nice work!
Could you make a patch for Olympiastadion? That would be great!:eek:

Thanks in advance!

Did you get the above patch to work???

If so, could you tell me how you installed the files?

No sorry,
I havn't tried the patch yet.

Strange, i even tested it on my notebook.

Just unrar to C:\program files\fifa 08 demo and choose yes, when asked for overwriting fifa.db and it worked...

Did you exported the files to Fifa 08 Demo\data folder?
Or perhaps you did not overwrite the fifa.db?

Its working guys. Nice job Don TM. ;)

Finally got it working! Thanks alot for your efforts Don, much appreciated (H)

What was wrong? Something with unzipping? :)

Hi.

Just reading this post.

I take it this is only for FIFA 08 on the PC?

If not what is the file .cmp???

Thanks
