Nice find!
You definitely notice ezta and tb are text for the tb teams endzones. Is that at a neutral site you got Carolina at?

Re: Possible Breakthrough Regarding Changing Endzone Art

Thankful for Teambuilder. I hate that I never really used it when I had the chance to. It would make things a whole lot easier. So, I spent about 4 hours going through the Stadium Tab in my dynasty file just trying stuff hoping it would unlock the end zone text and color. I ended up downloading several TB teams to look at their info in contrast to regular teams. The two columns I noticed and I don't know if it was the combination of both that finally unlocked it...but for each of the TB teams under Field ID(FLID), they had "CASTRF" which I can only assume is Created School Turf...and under SUGB all the TB teams had "1" whereas in my dynasty file all the teams had 0. So I changed Carolina to a 1. I loaded it up and when I saw that text I was geeked. I tried 3 different times with different colors to see if it would stick and no freeze and it was good to go. Def gonna be pulling my D111 mod back out to give those teams end zone text and color...so hyped.

A couple of things I learned...one yall probably already kno it easierw but under the Team Tab TB2B, TB2G, TB2R are the RGB (Red, Blue, Green) colors for each team that make up the teams secondary colors. TBCB, TBCG, TBCR are the RGB that make up each teams primay colors. They are 3 in one that makes up the 8 digit hexadecimal figure. It only changes the background at the team select screen as far as the game is concerned...but it makes it easier when you are trying to change colors. The max value in these tabs are 255.

The second thing is something I picked up reading on another site and that is the SRES Tab(I'm thinking this is the Stadium Resolution tab) otherwise know as the Stadium Structure Tab. Now, I'm not 100% sure on this one because the info I read was concerning Stadium editing for Madden 08 on PC. On that game STYP(Stadium Type) and SRES affect one another. Each team has a SRES value, which is the built in structure of each stadium and there is nothing you can do to edit the inside of it when STYP is set to 0. At 0 that game goes by that SRES value. But, when set to 1, then that game no longer follows the SRES values and at that point the inside of the structure can be edited. Again this was for Madden 08 on PC.

So, I just took a stab in the dark to see what would happen if I tried it with this game. I'm not really sure if it did anything,...but I fooled around with it. I set SRES to 268 because it's the first available number and it appears to have locked that stadium in for Carolina. No matter what I change the STAA column to, I get that same stadium. So, I'll mess around with that more this weekend.

All in all this was big and I hope its just the tip. I was to see if logos can be added to the field next. Also, there has to be other Created School Field ID's that could be used...it only makes sense to me...and if it is that means the smurf turf is out there. Anybody have any ideas??

Re: Possible Breakthrough Regarding Changing Endzone Art

If you’re using a team builder team, those primary and secondary RGB team colors you mentioned are crucial. Not only do they effect your menu colors, but they also effect the colors on the field of the non end zone art logos (so like if you put the ACC logo on the 25s or something) plus they affect the crowd color and your team’s TC gear. The primary RGB will make the team gear color, and the two colors will be the two colors seen in your stadium crowd. Found those out when heavily editing my teambuilder squad and changing their colors from navy and gold to royal blue and yellow.

Any idea which fields are for field logos? Also any idea what other FLID identifiers there could be from Teambuilder. I found a video on YouTube of a guy building his TB team from scratch and saw that 4 or 5 different type turfs you could choose from. I'm wondering if CASTRF is the global identifier for them all...and if so if there is a column within the stadium tab that would change the field color.

Also if you notice the ACC logo is red in my pics. All day before I was able to unlock the end zone text and colors it was Carolina blue. So I'm wondering which column affects the logo color. If I didn't have to work I would stay up all night to find out lol.

Re: Possible Breakthrough Regarding Changing Endzone Art

I noticed the pics are in the pro generic stadium. Can you change the endzone in their real stadium?
I know someone has been asking about getting Michigan to have their updated blue endzone with maize text.

I'll definitely be checking this evening when I get home from work and see. With us being able to mix and match stadiums and fields, I'm hoping it's possible. I know that when I was looking at the information of the Teambuilder teams, a couple of them were using the real team's stadium structure/ID with the CASTRF as the field ID. Can't wait to get home and dig in.

Re: Possible Breakthrough Regarding Changing Endzone Art

the stadium structure field is awesome. I always a move a few teams around. Kansas to the generic bowl because they got rid of their track is a much better look.

Re: Possible Breakthrough Regarding Changing Endzone Art

I changed alabama FLID to CASTRF and this is what it looked like.

UPDATE: So I got the endzones to say 'alabama' and 'crimson tide' in the color of my choosing. no background color yet.

Sweet so it does work inside their stadium. That's good to know. Now I'm hoping there is a way to add the field logos. The conference logos remain...good stuff man.

Re: Possible Breakthrough Regarding Changing Endzone Art

I was able to add outline text.
change the text front style
the only TB team I have with a background color is APP STate and it's black so the number would be 0.
I found it interesting as one of the colors for the text was only 4 digits.

also able to remove midfield logo and add 25yard logos for TB teams.

Re: Possible Breakthrough Regarding Changing Endzone Art

got a background color.
midfield logo as well. but it's EA sports as you can see. I had this issue with a TB Miami team when I was trying to mod their uniforms. I was unable to use a logo that was in the game already not assigned to a TB team and add it TO a TB team. showed up as EA sports logo everytime.

maybe tarheel can find a way around that.

Man, I was just about to come up here and ask you if when creating a TB school if you could choose different font style text and if you could actually outline the text. Would that be located under EZTT(endzone text type???) or is it someplace else?
