Re: VENUE Pics Not Showing Up
Which version are you using? In TB 2.5 you would keep the capital letters but remove the space between the words. The correct size is 300x225 pixels. Madison Square Garden should be MadisonSquareGarden.jpg.

Then came reports of crashes and weird things showing up. Many of us switched back to TB 2.5 with promises from Paul Norman of a new improved version, a TB 3...

Hardly Random Referees
Just a reminder for the future version whenever it actually appears. Random should really mean random. I notice today that two of the few Active Referees I have in my game have over 45 pages of recorded bouts to their credit while many of my historical refs have a single page or less. On another rel...

Stupid question, but are you using the latest patch 1.4? I rarely use the RFG myself, and when I do I tweak the creation. I find it odd that the RFG doesn't ask if you want the new guy to be a boxer, slugger or either. You would think style would impact ratings.

In addition to all that other stuff up there, how about fixing it so you can set certain screens (or all of them) to sepia tones for pre-1940s, sharp black and white for 1940-1950s, and colour for the 1960s onwards?
