gillsminnow Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Match Balls for 3D view by gillsminnowPack contains 6 default balls and 6 winter balls. Rename and replace them as you wish with the files from the following folder: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\football manager 2010\data\sigfx\meshes\ball Or wherever your FM file happens to be located. The files that you will need to rename/replace are: Default ball - ball_shader.dds Winter ball - orange_ball_shader.dds http://www.mediafire.com/file/zomom0k5ymo/ball.rar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Sorry, don't quite understand the rename/replace thing when we are given 12 balls :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerdMuller Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Also dont get it, should we rename the ball files to the stanard names and do we then get onyl 1 ball or is it possible to get all 12 used. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillsminnow Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 Also dont get it, should we rename the ball files to the stanard names and do we then get onyl 1 ball or is it possible to get all 12 used. EG: Rename "Ball 7" to "ball_shader" Rename "Ball 1" to "orange_ball_shader" and replace them with the existing files. From what I see it's only possible to have one default and one winter ball loaded at any time hence having to pick your balls from the ones I've created and do it this way.

peter-evo Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Which balls are the winter balls and which are the original balls? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillsminnow Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 Upto you, whatever you feel would be more visible for you against snow etc. Ones with white on them I created as defaults. Coloured ones for use in the snow but it is entirely upto you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 A 'balls 1 - 6 are white' and balls '7 - 12' are coloured would have been more appropriate. How on earth am I meant to know which are coloured? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gillsminnow Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 Can you see thumbnails of the files? Balls 1-6 I created for my own personal winter use and have no white on them. Balls 7-12 I created for my own personal default use and as such all have white on them. I'm not here to say "use this ball for default and this one for snow" hence why I said it's upto you.

jptykes Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 These are brilliant Could I be really cheeky and ask for a variant making? If possible I'd like ball 2 recolouring to be white with a wide yellow stripe bordered by two black stripes. Or ball 11 to have yellow where the red is.

jptykes Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I've still got them somewhere if gills doesn't mind them being re-uploaded. Can't get them to work in FM10 though. Does anyone know if there's a particular reason for that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakestone Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Can you not edit 3D balls in FM10? because I've made my own just like gills, renamed it to the right things and replaced the relevant files and now all i see is black balls? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jptykes Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I got gills' balls working eventually (boy, does that sound wrong ), so they must be customisable in FM10. I wouldn't know where to start personally, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jptykes Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 How did you get them working? Extracted the files and copied the one(s) I wanted to Program Files>Sports Interactive>Football Manager 2010>data>sigfx>meshes>ball and renamed it ball_shader.dds or orange_ball_shader.dds then refreshed the skin cache as though I'd installed a skin or logos. It's the same method as with FM09 I think, I just couldn't get it working previously in FM10 but it did when I tried again. It only works in the 3D match engine obviously, I'd love a version that worked in 2D if anyone knows how. Can someone please be kind enough to re-upload the file? Your balls look GREAT gills!! (This really sounds wrong...lol) If gills says it's ok, I'll happily upload them (not sure I have the full set, but I still have most of them).

It only works in the 3D match engine obviously, I'd love a version that worked in 2D if anyone knows how. To install 2D ones you just need to do the same as what you did for FM09 and previous versions. If you already have the 2D balls you just need to download the base skin and install them as per the instructions in this thread: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=154934 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jptykes Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Haven't got any 2D ones. Ideally I'd like to be able to find/make ones that match the 3D ones I'm using. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakestone Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Yeah, i made some images that were the same size as the normal ones, one for normal, one for winter. Renamed them from .png to .dds overwriting the old ones. Went into FM and reloaded the skin cache. They still show up as being black in the engine though.

I've got the necessary codec to produce dds files in Photoshop but don't know which settings to use. The game just crashes when I try and use the ones I made I'll re-upload them tonight, if gills is unhappy about it I'll remove the link Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
