I have no plans to start a serious SO5 game until it is fully patched, so I will probably attempt a few further mods in the meantime. I will have a think about it over the weekend.

I also need to go through all the trainer/jockey names and see if I can trim the fat, so that stables are all a bit nearer capacity.

They are to assign certain silks to a trainer. 0 being random, or 1-100 in the order that they run on the drop down menu.

On my list -
Horse Pictures that I did for SO4 to be refreshed/updated and moved into SO5.
Racecourse pictures that I did for SO4 to be refreshed/updated and moved into SO5.
I want to add white down the nose to one of the horse files, just for a bit of variation, probably the bay(dark) one.
I want to add maidens into the French and Irish showcase files, mostly 2yo maidens, maybe a couple of early season 3yo ones.
I then plan to change a lot of the button gfx and the blackboard/betting slip.
Then, the portraits need done. (I did all the names in full version, which Mark obviously couldn't use for copyright reasons, but that I planned to use myself after release. Problem being, some of the longer names don't fit as it is, with just an initial and a surname, so the full names have pretty much become null and void.)
I also need to go through all the trainer/jockey names and see if I can trim the fat, so that stables are all a bit nearer capacity.
Then, the final thing would be to get rid of all the bleeding jumps silks, and replace them with flat silks like the Aga Khan colours, but that as we have seen in the past, is a little out of my comfort zone, so by the time I get to that point, hopefully some else will have taken up the mantle.
