If i hear one more comment about the crowd i'm gonna **** lol!
:doh
In fact, i'm so frustrated by the crowd comments that i want to rectify it for once and for all. The next screens we post will have a better crowd, there, i've said it!
As for the adboards - yes, they are not all the correct English adboards, as JK said this will be changed. Stadiums have not been modified since ages ago when they were first made. And the adboards are not stretched, it is the camera lens of Free cam mode which slightly skews/stretches on angles because of the field of view settings. I haven't bothered to fix this yet, but is a simple thing...When you look straight on at something it is perfect aspect ratio. Yes, the textures need updating. Stadiums have taken a back seat for us though while we focus on the more important stuff.
More importantly, did you notice the fielders in there, which have been loaded in with all of their stats, different hats, caps, sunnies etc, all loaded in from external files. They have also been positioned based on preset fields which is all working well now.
Someone mentioned about the grass and pitch textures being not up to scratch - i'm going to have to agree to disagree there....i think they're some of the best i have seen, speaking totally objectively in an unbiased viewpoint. They are mipmapped so at distance they have much less detail, but close up look really awesome. Also these images were made as PNG files and suffered a substantial loss of quality in order to be lower in file size. You'll have to take our word on that though.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone.
Actually, just realised JK had uploaded JPG versions of the pix which means the quality is even further reduced. If you are interested in the higher quality PNG versions you can download here:

And thanks for all the kind words, everyone.
Also, forgot to mention, our stadiums are all setup as individual models, so the sizes and shapes are all different and entirely unique. There's no generic rope markers laid down for all or anything like that, so you can enjoy playing on all different sizes etc.
I think this will add to the feel of each stadium, rather than all stadiums blending into one. for example, MCG will really be huge and you will know it
cheers

High Standard....
one complaint is that in the pic where batsman is shown closely...
the batsmen in striker as well as non striker end,both are standing in same position....
non striker should stand little casually.....

Well spotted. Yeah, it's true, at this stage they have just both been loaded in at (default) pose which is identical. My very next task (tomorrow night in fact) is to set the correct starting positions and animations
Once done i'll post another pic.

Nice work. I like the way the stadium casts shadows onto the field. Does this mean we'll see them lenghthen and move around as the game progresses?

Why the roof of Lords stadium Pavillion is floating in air. See the image and see difference
Overall whole stadium is looking great.
