Old Good Strobe_Z :) Nice to see you again :)
I'd prefer to have no trasparency, but I have the image fully transparent after importing. Hopefully there will be a useful utility for this file format soon :)

Maybe Shlomy could help us, the Israeli Premier League patch includes logos.

Good to see you too Lukas~!

I'm surprised that using FSHTool you got full transparency... could be the alpha image maybe? I used FSHTool for the National flags and I got an image with a non-transparent flag with a black background... It's bizzarre.

It might be that you tried to edit the league badges.... it looks like the .o files need to be editted for the "flying" badges. Since the national flags don't do that... FSHTool might have a different effect.

As for Shlomy's Israeli league patch... he did what I suspected....
provided a better background for the logos than black :P

The transition.fsh files have no transparency.

I thought the IPL patch had logos that were not transparent, but had a nicer background than plain black? How did you import your transparent images, Lukas?Did you import an alpha image?

BTW I have also another problem: when tried to import my new flags using flag raptor and flag factory, I still see the original flags and not the new ones. Does flag importing work fine for you ???

when I manually imported flags (fshtool etc.), I could see the new ones only close up... from a distance the original ones appeared... I thought that was fixed with the advent of Flag Raptor... never tried the Flag Factory, though

Lukas... the flags/banners (in the stands) are multi-resolution images in the .fsh files. Basically at different distances (sizes) the flags look different. Using FSHTool I could only access the large size image, so the flags sometimes look like the old ones.. sometimes they're a weird semi-transparent image of the old and new flags.

Flagraptor has solved the problem for me though.. I'm surprised it doesn't work for you. The multi-resolution images in the .fsh files is a little tricky. I had the same problem last year with the ball files. Sometimes FSHTool would give me 5 image .bmp (each 50% smaller), sometimes no.

I did that too in the demo but now I cant figure out how did I make the alpha image so it has antialias in the borders of the logo.

how did you do that? I remerber that I opened the normal logo in BMP (a logo with round borders and antialias) and I used one the PSP's options and the logo would transform to a greys scale with antialias and everything but I cant remember how I did it now :(

creating an alpha image is very easy.... just save your badge as a .png... then open it and create a .fsh from it using EA Graph (32bit use original transparency). Then you can open your new .fsh file using FSHTool... voila... XXXX-a.bmp

It doesn't really help though... at least not for me.
I've tried renaming the new .fsh to the transitionXXXX.fsh.. and I can now make 100% transparent images. I've looked at the index.fsh files of the original transition.fsh and one with an alpha image... but I'm not sure if it's possible to edit the index.fsh to accept a new 0000-a.bmp

I do it different way. I create the logo in PSP with transparency, then choose Mask-Create-From Image-By opacity values. Then choose Mask-Save to disk. Save the MSK file to any folder, then reopen it in PSP as standalone image. File-Save as and save it as 0000-a.bmp. That's it.


Now I know what is the problem with menu logos: the BIG file includes an *.o file that defines active areas for the logos that are stored in the FSH file inside the BIG archive. I have tried to edit the *.o with OEdit, then imported it into the BIG, but FIFA crashes now.

Tried the .O files in oedit thingy mentioned above but it doesnt contain the graphic locations. So there either in the *.apt file or the *.const file. Any ideas how i can open them and edit them?? I need to find out asap so i can edit the locations of the league logo and team badge graphics before my fifa league starts its new season next week. Any help very much appreciated. Thanks.

- use fshtool to export all the images.

- open the bmp file of the team's logo you want to replace, and edit the logo to FIT EXACTLY the original one. make a transparent background and save as PNG.

- delete the folder you got from fsh tool (the one with all the bmp files).

- import the PNG file to the fsh using gfxpak or impbig.

- import the league fsh file back to the league big file. and then the league big file to the team.big file.

cheers.
