 Re: Gfx Pack
I prefer normal graphics, but I think the silks are not clear enough. Your George strawbridge one is easily identifiable and I think it looks good.

 Re: Gfx Pack
Have to say Jacob, those silks are looking superb.
Sterling job, and look forward to the download.

Ok, they are about as good as I can get them. If you have leader-cam enable or like to zoom in, the blending software that creates the duplicate silks is proving difficult to mask so at that degree, there are some slight imperfections and/or bleeding onto the a few pixels in the trousers that I cannot seem to get ironed out. If your not bothered by the leader-cam or zoom, you'll probably not notice anything awry. Once downloaded, drop the gfx file into C:/ Program Files(x86)/ Starters Orders 5 and agree to overwrite existing files. Download link - http://www.mediafire.com/file/r1adf654ia1e12i/Silks.zipIn case anyone doesn't like them and wants to revert back, here are the originals - http://www.mediafire.com/file/be5cbcolc ... ginals.zipFor assigning to trainers, here are the relevant numbers ->  - 52  - 37  - 69  - 65  - 93  - 85  - 61  - 40  - 58

Unless you suggest something that makes me go 'damn, why didn't I think of that', the likely answer is no chance!! Even with better software to go to war with this time round, (not that I really know how to use it effectively yet) they are still a massive pain in the arse to do.

C:/ Program Files(x86)/ Starters Orders 5 open the data folder, and go into folder 1 for the UK. You'll see a _trainers file, if you open that under each trainer name you'll see a line containing a number, followed by a comma, possibly then followed by a jockey name. The latter is used if you want to set up a retainer, while the number is to assign a specific set of silks to a trainer. For example, Al Zarooni should have the number 1, assigning him the Godolphin blue.

 Re: Gfx Pack
Hi DB Looks great although it won't let me save it, I go to run with notepad, open the file change the silks accordingly then try and save as _trainers or _trainers.dat etc, tried saving as *txt and all files but keeps popping up with:
Cannot create the C:\Program Files\StartersOrders5\data\1\_trainers.dat file. make sure that the path and file name are correct.
Any ideas Anyone??

On the Starters Orders 5 folder, right click and select properties Nick. Select the security tab, pick your user group and set the permissions to full control. That should allow you to make changes to the files.

I suppose if you wanted to assign anymore you'd have to find out which trainer represents which number though.

 Re: Gfx Pack
Thanks Supercat but the first number which is 52 for example is for Jonjo O'Neill so does that mean his colours will change to the green one?

 Re: Gfx Pack
Most probably, yes Exx. DB isn't interested in the jumps and as he put above he wanted to get rid of the silks from the jumps and add some of his favourite flat ones.
