Rays New Stadium Pictures Releaed
-
Time for frank feedback. Before you pay your hard earned money for such a project, you should understand up front the best you could possibly get in return for that money.
First, in MLB 26, SDS ensured that the foul grounds cannot be modified in the slightest from their default football style layout. I have seen the renders for this possible Rays stadium. Like all baseball venues, it features the classic pinched in baselines once past the infield. This feature is prevalent because it aligns the seats to point toward the infield, making spectator seating higher quality.
Stadium Creator will not allow this. So, right there any custom stadium you receive will not match the basic layout of the proposed design.
Second, SDS's code for Stadium Creator will not support domed stadiums, and this proposed Rays stadium is very much a dome. This means when it rains in the games, it will rain on the field. Moreover, you will not be able to see a true replication of the design's unique layout of solid panels covering the infield, and clear panels covering the outfield.
Third, Stadium Creator's code still forces large avoidance areas to either side of the batters eye. This means the actual design's unique features either side of the batters eye cannot be replicated. Instead, you will have empty space.
Before you spent your money, I felt you needed to understand all that.
Brotato missed the entire point of the post and jumped straight SDS slander.
OP never trashed, called out, or framed SDS for doing that.
Pipe down, and kindly go outside Mr. Number 1 SDS hater.

Well, it's only 30,000 capacity.
Sucks to have low capacity stadiums.
Have the Rays ever sold out a regular season game?

Thank you for this feedback!
It is pretty crazy that a “stadium creator” really can’t create a stadium
how in the world can they not do a dome?!EA sports incoming?!

Glad I could help you make an informed decision with your money.
BTW: To @sds_joek_psn this OP and my reply was in no way planned. I mention that to SDS only so you understand the implications for your game by continuing your needless and stubborn refusal to upgrade Stadium Creator as the one-time vibrant design community has professionally asked you to do for six years now and counting.

Here's a couple pictures of stadiums that I've created. Although they aren't exactly beautiful, you can see there aren't any empty spaces next to the batter's eye.
It's directly above or within the BE that you can't place props. You can place them right up to and almost touching the BE.

I don't know who you are trying to fool. I've designed hundreds of stadiums. There are many batters eyes that have overmodeled sideward avoidance zones, and only a few allow you to get props close to the sides. That said, even those few have empty void areas in front.

Could you give me the examples of the ones you're talking about? I'd like to confirm these for myself.
EDIT: Okay, I did some testing on all the batter's eyes.
Every design has, for lack of a better term, a square 'footprint'. No matter what the actual layout is, the borders of the batter's eye are always four sides.
For the vast majority of them, this allows you to place props right up to the edge of the batter's eye.
The only ones that lead to open spaces are the ones of odd shapes. The few that I noticed were Advanced Terrace, Big City Tiers and Garden Setting. That's it.
You can't place props in the open spaces because it would infringe upon the 'footprint'. You can't place anything above the design for the same reason. And, finally, you can't put anything in front of the design because .. that would defeat the entire purpose of the batter's eye.
Please go test this yourself and post receipts to confirm your claims. I've posted pics to prove mine.

Anything with a lip/overhang/bushes you can't nestle right up to. Unfortunately the footprint goes from the furthest extension out. So Angel Hill, Modern Terrace, the Philly one(cant remember the name), the blue rounded one with the hill, the massive brick terrace, both green and black slatted ones leave awkward spaces because the bases are wider than the eye itself, the massive green one. Those are just the ones I know for certain off the top of my head
There's very few you can actually get right up to, the MiLB Metal one, the small green tarp, Ranger hill you can work with at least, the mayan, the old-tyme green one, and the Petco Park one.
Twin Station (And to a degree that massive brick one) are virtually unusable despite being two of the cooler options

I think it's fair to take into account the forum ID that folks choose to go by when determining whether that person is here for a sincere discussion, or trolling. Folks like Sarge and myself have been designing and releasing stadiums on the vault for years. On the other hand, someone who adopts an ID that's in keeping with a three year old, well it soon becomes clear what those people are up to.

So, that's all you can come up with? Because your ID is 4534534244523454, you must be right? Instead of actually posting a few photos to prove your point?
Good argument.
