I don't know how many of you have noticed this,but by using 4GK kits in the game,the quality of boots is somewhat lower(that means 4GK affects the shape and the texture of the boots too),Maybe there is a way to improve it(or better,maybe there is a way to attach an image in the kits(like the goalie's kit) and there could be a outter program like Ariel's ''short-numbers-or-not'' program that could allow us to choose between 40 boots or more.Think about it dudes!The boot making tecniques are way back in comparison to other textures(kits,shorts,faces,hair).

2)one other thing i noticed:You all know there is a mirror problem with the boots,BUT the ''far view'' has NOT this prob!.I noticed this only when i used the nike air zoom 2total 90 or something.MAybe most of you know this already.



cheers.

hmmm...boots selector could be hard...Id say Ariel would be able to make specific boots for each team, but for each player, i cant see this being possible..not sure though..

hey Skip_E you mean that the whole team would have the same boots or something else?

I think that Ariel is a brilliant patch maker,he could easily do something like that,but wouldn't it be better if there was a boot list and each team could use at least 16 diff. types of boots and select them from an outter program like fed or smthn(idea:select by name and have a preview picture,not the texture,an in-game pic).This way each player of the team would easily have his own pair of boots.Think about it guys,and ask Ariel to do something(i know he's pretty busy right now,BUT.....)

BTW here 's the other picture.

Hey Soanis.Did you make this boots? I´m trying to find then and I can´t find it anywhere on the web.If you did it, how can you make an not mirrowed boot? I´m a begginer in editing FIFA but I always want do learn something new.
Thanks in advance!

Ariel already did the boot selector for fifa 2002 40 different boots available. It's called boot raptor one of the first things he did for fifa 2002.

HEy ELL_Gallo you r wrong dude!The boot raptor is a great utility BUT it only has 15 types of boots,just adds 3 extra boots.Belive me,I am a boot maniac,i've checked.I am talkking about a patch (even an executable,like the 4GK exe) that would let you choose one different boot for each player of one team.Let's say there's a library of boot textures in a dir and the program selects which boot to assign to each player(you select through the program).Then FIFA begins through it and the graphics are altered by it.

Just that.

Hey Stoichkov, these boots (are'nt made for walking!:D ) are not mine.Vic_33's team has made them.They are great but the bad thing is that the mirror problem still remanis and there is no way (YET) to avoid it.You can get this boot texture and some other great in this thread:http://www.soccergaming.tv/showthread.php?s=&threadid=37290

I am very pessimistic right now,coz all this time noone came up with asolution about the problem,but i bet there's pretty much to be done with the boots' shape(coz it is wrong in fifa)

I am feeling a little dizzy right now:-puke:

Soanis

any ideas on how to improve the texture quality and change the boot shape?

BTW does Ariel ever show up in this forum?IF yes ,what's his nick'?

cheers.

is there any way to convert the boot structure files from fifa 2001 to fifa 2002?It would be great coz at that case we wouldn't have to worry about mirror problems and we could even have a solid ''tongue'' (not a mirrored one).

Just check out Alenitchev's boots for 2k1.

well it's my mistake,i discovered that with the 4GK the ''tongue'' problem is solved!

The only bad thing is that the boot visual quality is terribly low volks.I have been thinking about it,the normal kits in the game have a low quality when u use 4GK,SO (DUHH!) that is exactly what happens with the boots!What i believe needs to be made,is to make a pkshared.fsh file that will allow us use LARGER textures for the boots.What that means? LARGER IMAGE=BETTER QUALITY.IF some genius shettles that,all we still have to worry about is ''how to lose the mirror problem'' .I have made a SUggestion ,if some of the geniuses agrees to help,then...... every single thing is possible.I mean why do people pay 200 Euro to play the most realistic football game with the best graphics,physics,and the BEST BOOTS I HAVE EVER SEEN IN A GAME, on GC and we pay above 1000's to play a game with crappy graphics and physics?WE CAN CHANGE THAT FOR SURE.


THAT"S all i wanted to say.


cheers.
