RTTS, Proper Uniform Days

[TJ Henderson]

Something has been really bugging me.
Since the inclusion of being able to play a series in a single sitting without hitting the menu again, it's been a dream to go through.

But, being a sim guy...one thing really bugs me. I'll use the Orioles as an example here. Baltimore wears black on Fridays (home or away) and orange on Saturdays (same).
RTTS includes these uniform schedules and it added a nice touch of authenticity.

But ever since the one sitting series...the teams will wear the same jerseys every day of the series that they started with in game 1. It's really disappointing from an immersion standpoint. If I started a series on Thursday, I'll be wearing home white...but this should then change to black for game 2, orange for game 3, back to white on Sunday.

I doubt there is a way to 'change' this, but has anyone else noticed? Is it sometihng that can be patched? I never wrote about it because I hoped it would be addressed when 18 was released.

I’ve seen this happen, I guess it is easier to load the teams with the same unis on. If you want to have the right jersey on each day at least the load times aren’t long.

It is to save on memory. Unfortunately the only way around it is to back out on those days and jump back into your games.

The uniform files in the game are very large and it isn't possible for them to have the near non existent load times between games if the game had to change uniforms for a team for the next game. It is also why you can only play one series at a time before having to go back to the menus. Too much loading and resources are involved in changing, teams, venues, uniforms, etc.

Doubt it changes until perhaps PS5, maybe.
