2021 Kit Updates

[ama1]

Great stuff!

 

[jim546]

Almost done with the major international kits, Ireland's has been a pain due to their funky design:



As I wrote previously I'll be putting these on Github soon so that all my stuff is in one place, instead of multiple files across this forum. I need some opinions on file structure for it.

At the moment everything is organised in sub-folders, which makes it easy for me to track my files, but harder for the end-user to install them, what would be the best format for this, particularly all the kits I've done? Keep everything organised, or make "master files" mixing all kits etc. together?

Organised would be great.

Brilliant work @jim546 Will there be a game patch/ros once finished as well? Or is there a patch you would recommend to go along with the updated kits?

 

[ama1]

jim546 - whatever method is easiest for you to compile. Just stoked that we have kit makers on board again.

 

[jim546]

Here you go, just made the first relesae on github: https://github.com/jimw546/jimw546-s-Rugby-08-stuff

To download, go to releases at the bottom-right of the page, scroll to the bottom and download the first .zip listed.

Hi jim546, I downloaded the international kits from github, but, apart Australia and England, all kits when selected ingame make the game crash. Do you know how to deal with this? I have installed the TRF patch

thanks for the help and the wonderful kits you realized!

 

[jim546]

I don't know sorry, there's nothing about the Oz and England kits different from the others as far as I can tell. Is it just the international kits or the club kits as well? Is it crashing when selecting the teams in the menu, or when loading the match?

My game crashes when I play as Ireland and play at home, and message says Async load of handle???

Use the texture in the file I've attached to this post and see if you can play as Ireland in their home kit.

The major change I've made between my last kits and these international kits is the size of the texture used for the front. I was using a 512*512 resolution, but I've done the internationals as 1024*1024 for a more detailed texture. I found a Rugby10 mod that was doing this and they worked for me fine, but if it's causing issues for others I might have to re-scale all the new kit fronts.

aight man I'll let you know how things go

jim546 Thanks for the amazing updates All works perfectly. Tested all International kits and they seems fine
Do not understand the issued listed might be the previous issue we had with Connor Murray face that caused game to crash

 

[jim546]

If anyone has any crashes with an "async" error message it should give you the name of the file causing the crash, let me know which file it is. Any other crashes let me know as well, give as much detail as you can.

Hi jim546, thanks for your quick and kind reply. The game crash when I select an international team for which I updated the kits. It simply crashes without showing me any Async message. The only teams for which I do not have problems are Australia and England. For New Zealand and South Africa I did not have crash problems for the kits you realeased one month ago, while current releases of these teams make the game crash. I play in windows 10 with game resolution 1920x1080. Can this resolution create problems?
Further info: when I try to open the .big files with BigGui it tells me "error: filename has an invalid header". This does not happen for Australia and England only

thanks again for the help!

Moreover, when I try to open the .fsh files (except for Australia and England) with FshEd I got the following error: "The file you are attempting to open is not a valid Electronic arts SHP file. Access violation at address 004a09EO in module fshEd.exe "

I've re-packageed all the int'l kits together and put them on Mega, see if this works for you: https://mega.nz/file/GAQQyRxZ#W8-vx0KTe0ghpy2eoeM-38C99CESctvUkqUtqBanBnM

Great mate! Now it works perfectly!
Infinite thanks!!!!

Back to the kits I've been putting off for ages, Top 14:



I haven't started Brive, Castres, Pau, or Stade. Biarritz and Perpignan are not on my list as they aren't in the TRF21 mod.

 

[ama1]

Maybe put them in, and we can all decide which teams should be in / out of the next mod.

I might consider doing what peter83 did a while back and having two mods,
to get around the max team limit for each patch (75).

23 x International
30 x NH clubs
15 x SH clubs
7 x All Star teams (which tend to crash World League if added).

 

[dcwilko90]

These are by far the best detailed Kits I've seen since MUP10

any chance of possibly doing an Adidas Barb Kit?

Do you mean Barbarians? I was thinking of doing the current kit to replace one of the all-star teams:

 

[jim546]

Well, this evening has been productive...:

 

[shoulderboy86]

hey mate can you add Moana Pasifika? got both of their home and away jerseys and to replace one of the SA teams like the cheetahs and put it on the current patch?

 

[jim546]

hey mate can you add Moana Pasifika?

Moana Pasifika and Fijian Drua aren't on my list at the moment, it could be a possibility for them to replace Cheetahs and another defunct club but that would be the decision of the roster makers not me. I'd definitely want to finish my current kits before moving onto SR teams.

 

[peter83]

congratulations on your kits. they really look great

I've been meaning to work on updating the default Barbarians Kit, which appears in Rugby08 & using the above kit for the current patches.
I just haven't had time to address any of the graphical issues, as I've been busy compiling faces & customising the default roster haha

I still need to update the logos haha

 

[dcwilko90]

I'd be struggling at the moment as I've just started a new job. Once I'm sorted in that I may be able to do some more kits, but I can't promise anything right now sorry.

I know the feeling haha

 

[jim546]

Stade's kits are A: amazing and B: a nightmare to texture:
