Thazer Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 WHoa... what a weird name for a league. Whatssup here? A. There was an actual Southern California Trolley League. .... that lasted like 22 minutes in 1910. The name initially made me think the league was affiliated with a rail system; It wasnt, but i was intrigued.... so i will make it so. B. The Pacific Electric Co. would have done this. Profits came from the owners routing rail lines through their land holdings to facilitate their development. Passenger service alone never made a profit. Creating a sports league to provide attractions along PE routes would encourage development and fill the red cars on match days. C. Some of ye might remember this wackadoodle topic of mine. I got bored. The concepts and presentation were pretty weaksauce too. _____________________________________________________________________ Pacific Electric Football League Weeeeee!! League setup in the inaugural year 1910. Football clubs dot the PE routes. Los Angeles FC Santa Monica FC Pasadena FC Long Beach FC Santa Ana FC Redondo Beach FC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelman Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Dude this looks sharp! I'm not really a soccer follower but I like what you've done here. Fun and creative. Looking forward to seeing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thazer Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 - SANTA ANA FC - Santa Ana, "The Golden City". On the actual city seal is....the local courthouse. Yep not sexy, so they get a nice monogram with sun rays instead. Stylish gent w/ ze stylish kit. Stadium jazz coming up soon. !!!!!!.............................and a question................................!!!!!! Hey is there any way to simulate soccer seasons with fictitious clubs/players? FIFA? Football manager? I've done this with baseball games (High Heat Baseball/OOTP Baseball), but i've never seen it with soccer computer games. Fabricating league tables doesn't seem fun and it would be cool to match the players kit model with an actual star of the team. I'd wanna follow though the history of the league 1910-today with expansions, promotions/relegations once i flesh out these first clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fm would probably work, though I think it can take some time to set up. Using a simple excel sheet can do the trick. Btw, great job so far! I would love to see you simulate through the years.

Steelman Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 http://thirdgeek.com/ns/xkoranate/ I've been using this program, along with tracking results and roster information in Excel, for other sports, but it was originally developed for soccer simulation. There is a scandalous lack of tutorial information but once you kind of figure it out it's cool. Could be useful for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBRND Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 The crests may not seem too 10s, but I love the work that you put into it. Great idea by the way, for the league story.

If you're interested i'll let you know how. I did it with a Fantasy Aussie Rules league a heap of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XenonDesigns Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Looking epic! I think it'd be fun if you could record yourself modelling the stadium and then make a timelapase if that's possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitefoot Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 With as much detail as you put into the project, why are there no numbers on the back of the kits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
