I found a way to do colored sleeves when making teambuilder teams and went for old school looks.

I admit ,this can be a stupid waste of time, but I like the look I get. I used kicker and DNA facemasks since i cant get rid of facemasks entirely.

Gah at all the Princeton-style helmets.

Very cool look though. Curious how you did colored sleeves, I didn't think that was one of the options in Teambuilder equipment.

its not,... somehow last year, I stumbled on the fact that changing rosters equipment in game translates when you pick that roster in teambuilder-but only after you have loaded created team into your system/game and then repick the roster you edited in teambuilder edit and then go back to game and pick-check for updates and it will give you the changes you made.
But you have to do it from a seperate roster on your game...what i mean is, you need 2 roster saves in game. If i go on line to play a game, i have to make sure Steelerfans rosters are the ones loaded because if i go online with the roster I made changes to, it disappears when i come back.
But that doesnt affect a teambuilder team in my game I already saved. I just want to show them off when i play online unranked games with friendlist guys.

But the sick thing is, I dont see anything else on the internet like this/mine. Just guys recreating div 2 teams etc... Now,granted, no one can download my team and get the affect. It can only be done by yourself for yourself....I hope all the above made sense ? i'm open to questions :)
....how the hell does a Ohio guy/fan call them princeton helmets...haha.......Mich......
alot of teams used this in the leather helmet days, thats what i'm limited to until I started looking at pictures and getting other ideas like really wide stripe or just solid...stuff like that...?

:P ookaay, yes that was funny, but lets get back on topic haha :P

doesnt JB work in a strip club ? so he hears equipment as a different slang ?


anyway, I wanted to add, even when you change every single players-football equipment:D-
sometimes a couple of the players wont translate in the load. Example- I changed the Boise state roster but the starting QB still has short sleeves.

Ask and ye shall receive.

Jim Parker and other 50s Buckeyes, with coach Woody Hayes: http://media.cleveland.com/startingblocks/photo/woody-hayes-apjpg-88a5d973cdaf9fad.jpg

Based on this (http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/sports/stories/2009/11/17/1117unireview.html), I'd say they were gray pants with red stripes.

EDIT: Duh, stupid me. You're talking about the uniform that Vic wore. See here (http://www.tedwatts.org/showimage.php?imgsrc=images/heisman/vicjanowicz50.jpg&w=500), here (showing that it's a single stripe) (http://www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com/fls/17300/graphics/m-footbl/no31-janowicz-vic.jpg)

yep, thanks, in some photos or depictions they look more white but are obviously darker in some pictures. they may have even altered the uni's a couple times while H Cassady was there . theres a black and white where Wisconsin looks like solid red from head to toe...I just mean the uni' not the shoes

without belaboring this...no, you were right the first time- the 1955 has more flavor to it and its the one on Cassady...I wish you could mimic the funky shoulder stripes on the white uni's I saw haha

Wow, I really need to refresh my Buckeyes history. Totally forgot that Janowicz was 1950, and that Hopalong was 1955. I'm kind of disgusted with myself right now.

Cassidy's uniforms were definitely the same as what I posted earlier. Here's a beautiful picture of the Spots Illustrated with Cassidy on the cover, which shows just the top of the pants: http://www.sportsmemorabilia.com/files/cache/f33/howard-cassady-the-ohio-state-story-october-24-1955-sports-illustrated_f336ee5fef9a9fb6771e7cfee2dd2a7b.jpg

thats a compliment from a Nebraska fan,no less.
in 62' they had the clover/shamrock on the helmet. but they also had stripes on the shoulders. I just bypassed that for an old look as it is.

01-07-2011, 10:38 PM
Ram, I'm not quite following ... what do you mean you used the San Diego State stripe and the "Standard shoulder"? Is that just what you're calling them? 'Cause they're not in Teambuilder like that, right? Looks like the second one is Stripe 68, unless you found a better one.

yep I dont know them by number haha. The one on the shoulder is based on the San Diego State stripe on their real uniform. And all I know about the other one is its way over to the right scrolling the editor haha. But I just called it a basic traditional stripe because thats pretty much what it is compared to all the jersey ideas they put on the site. Sorry, dont mean to be illiterate or inaccurate , just giving a quick description.
I'm at least familiar with what I used and why I used it haha......:) so thank me for paying homage to your favorite school because doing Penn State for myself doesnt take much effort haha...lets see..blue stripe there..ok i'm done haha

01-08-2011, 02:04 AM
Haha, yeah, I figured that's what you were doing by using those names, ram. Just wanted to make sure you hadn't found some super secret way to get that stripe set in, since that's the same set (the "standard" one) I used for my 1995 Buckeyes.

its pretty simple color and design wise but its one of my favorites. Most guys try to do a dark uniform with few lines to look fierce like the Ravens or something. But making it look old school gives it a completely different feel. I'm just about done with this haha. But just wanted to catalog it for anyone interested or might inspire someone to try something else. Its kind of weird/ sad/interesting that I cant seem to find anything else on the internet like this. Just trying to find other uniform freaksout there haha.

most are public, but I doubt they would be downloaded...I mean,..you cant do the colored sleeve thing when taking them and the equipment adjustments as well. You can only accomplish this first hand for yourself.
If you loaded a team you made into a online dynasty ,you would only get that look for the first year unless the base/primary color was black or white for sleeves that you can change in rosters in an online or offline dynasty. Plus people being picky about which roster you used and stuff like that haha. The uni's arent the same without the sleeves ya' know.

I basically changed the equipment of the Nebraska-okla State- Ohio State and a couple other rosters to get this look and have teams with decent ratings when I use them for unranked-online teambuilder games.

Thanks for the article ! I didnt expect that, but it would be interesting to see how many look at it and think if its nutty or cool or what ?
there seems to be allot of sign ups here but only 10 of us that interact a little, while others just creep around, look and go away haha.

It was just visual evidence that you could do color sleeves and what better way than trying to do old school uniforms to show that. And i'm one of those guys that if I like something in one color, I want see it in other colors to vary it up. And I do a bunch of little things since I dont have the video save stuff that guys like oneback and gschwndt have to show games. You guys know I'm a uniform/uniform history freak as it is haha.
