Okay, here we go ladies and gentlemen. The MCG released at two eras. Download them from
AussieDave27.
First, MCG
1968 - 1992, nickname MCG 68-92, which is just after the new Ponsford stand (originally called the Western stand) was built and a bit over a decade since the new Olympic stand was built for, surprise surprise, the olympics.
A few highlights:
- This is not the great southern stand you are used to but the old one
- Full Australian sponsors. Ideally I'd like to have some more old school ones that are more era appropriate. If anyone creates them or points me to them I'll gladly upload them.
- Individual sponsors for each gate that do not rotate. No sponsors on the fence
- No sponsors for the Member's stand. I wish we could turn off sponsors as here you get a weird white thing now, but it's better than having sponsors I think
- Making circular stands is an absolute bitch but I think I did a decent job of it.
- Pitch correctly goes from the Members to the Southern stands, unlike some of the MCGs which have it going orthogonal to that
- Used a circular pitch rather than an oval. This is because in reality the MCG is an oval but the pitch runs orthogonal to the long axis of the oval (i.e. the straight boundaries are short and the square boundaries are huge).
Next is
MCG 1992-2002, nickname MCG 92-02, which includes the new and present Great Southern Stand that was built for the 1992 World Cup.
A few highlights
- There are now fence sponsors, unlike in the older era MCG.
- The Ponsford, Olympic and Members stands are the same as the older era
My next step is to make a modern MCG. I have started, but can't get the stands going well around a circle yet.
Enjoy!
