Extender problem
I am having an issue when I run extender. Defensive players seem to be running fine but offensive players are coming up the same each time I run it with no stats. Any thoughts. I apologize if this has been answered before.

Playing around with draft analyzer I noticed a few things that don't make sense.
First I set all the weights to the middle position. Then I looked at a SE and a WLB. Both players are near the top of the draft class. When I changed weights for individual combines, I noticed that the combine value in the table and the combine value in the stats (below the table where height and weight, etc are) do not always move as expected. First moving the dash to farthest left position, the table value doesn't change but the value in the stats area gets lower. Both move when it is set to the far right setting. Second, moving the sole to the farthest left position increases the table value and leaves the stat value the same (neither seem intuitively correct) Third, moving the sole to the farthest right leaves the table value the same and reduces the stat value (again, neither seem intuitively correct). Forth, moving bench to the farthest left position leaves both the table and the stat combine values the same (intuitively they should decrease). Fifth, moving bench to the farthest right leaves the table value unchanged and the stat value is lower (again it doesn't seem correct). It appears that sometimes the table value, which the combine sort is based on is not modified by changes in weight. Also the modifications for scores in which higher is better (sol and bench) are backwards. If you want me to send you the file, please let me know and I will. |

I realize this is on the website for the utility, but 3 years after getting it to work that way and a long hiatus from the game i am lost and have no idea how to do it anymore ...
So if anyone can tell me where to either find or create this "teamimagemap.csv" file for a single player game i´d be highly gratefull for that the description is below. Quote:

now i have a teamimage.csv, but then the extender won´t start/immediately crashes ...
I´ll upload it as attachement, maybe someone sees sth i´m missing It´s 2 variations i´ve tried: A) City,PathofImage B) City PathofImage if anyone has a ready/working file for any of the available graphic-addons (Icy etc) i´d gladly take that as well Last edited by whomario : 10-02-2011 at 07:44 AM. |

I am getting weird sorts in DA v2.0.4.0. I try to sort by combine, then by position, and it mostly works. Sometimes it totally works. Other times, you get to the bottom of a position group, and right after the most negative combines are a second group of combines, sorted from high to low.
In other words, you might see -10.5 -11.5 -14.2 3.75 1.11 0.85 -2.5 As combine scores at the bottom of the list. Is this a known issue? Haven't found rhyme or reason to when this occurs and when it doesn't. |

Is there a sub-catagory to the position? Like it's sorting "SEs" then "FLs" then listing both as "WRs"?
Sorry if I'm out of place here. I just woke up and can't resist a logic puzzle.

Gameplan analyzer: I'm in the middle of a season but I can't seem to get team data for previous seasons by entering the previous year number.
Am I doing something wrong or is it just supposed to be this way? |

Did you pick a team? Note that I use it this way all the time (tell me what team X has done since 2027) so it definitely works, you're probably just not setting everything you need to.

Yeah, I do pick a team. I was really just interested in what this team did in, say, the 2020 season (as opposed to all seasons from 2020 to now). At any rate, it doesn't give me either. Maybe I'll try reinstalling the utility suite.

Ah, Greg - I know what is causing the issue. Now I just don't know how to solve it.
I loaded up another league and saw I could get data from past seasons. The league where I am having trouble, I recently (beginning of the season ish) had the save data corrupted so I wiped the folder of that league's files and re downloaded them from scratch. What will I need to manually get back in order to get past season's files for GPA? The stats files are still there, there just seems to be no GPA data. Thanks! |

You can, but you lose all old retirement history (FOF drops players it shouldn't from its internal tables). If there is no player ID of 27748 in that table now, that means the code is probably trying to insert it twice, which means something is very weird with that game data.

Not on topic with the latest release but a quick question. I've tried to run Extractor on my small travel laptop (1366x768 max resolution) but can't get it to fire...I'm thinking it's the non-overlapping windows requirement? Anyway, can anybody run extractor from that resolution?

GamePlan Analyzer
I have downloaded the utility suite, but i'm a noob and I have no idea how to use the GamePlan Analyzer, this tool would be great for me, 'cause I don't have much experience in game planning, could someone help me to understand how to use the tool?
Thanks. Mauricio Manzano |

Mauricio, you'll need to follow the instructions in this post:
Front Office Football Central - View Single Post - StelmackSoft FOF2k7 Utility Suite Which really should be included as part of the suite, or in a README, if it's not already. Quote:
Are you in any MP leagues yet? If not, join us! Greg, I have a question here and I'm sorry if it's been discussed before. I am looking at the "League Passing" screen on Gameplan Analyzer. The table is called "Pass vs Double Coverage and Defensive Playcall." Now there are separate 'sack' stats kept for Avoid & Pass Normal, and Avoid & Pass Aggressive, Into & Pass Normal, Into & Pass Aggressive. How do you get this? Is throwing into or away from double coverage decided whether or not the QB gets the throw off? There are also stats for scrambles. This doesn't really make sense to me. If the QB scrambles, he neither threw into, nor avoided double coverage. Last edited by aston217 : 01-14-2012 at 11:49 PM. |

When I read the Solevision line, I have all this information. There is a flag in there for threw into / avoided double coverage (you'll see this noted in the Solevision playback as well). A scramble does not result in a sack or a threw into or avoided double coverage, so none of those columns should be incremented. I'd have to check though, sometimes FOF notes things that may not appear to apply to the play. For example, the primary receiver may be double-covered and that causes the QB to take off. That probably shouldn't be counted as throwing into double-coverage, but I'd have to check and see how it gets recorded.

Sorry, I still cannot run the GamePlan Analyzer, when I try, the field pick league is in blank and the field pick team so, I have read that I need the solevision data, how do I get that? The only tools that I know how to use is the extractor and the Draft Analyzer and the Draft Analyzer I don't understand too much, the other tools I have no idea how to use and why it's helpful, is there a help for noobs for this utility suite.
P.S.: I already read the first post, but didn't understand too much. P.S.: Aston217, yes i am already in a MP League, but I really suck, unfortunatelly I don't have much time to enter another league. Thanks, Mauricio Manzano |

Did you follow the directions in that post I quoted? You have to create a new text file named FOFPATH and put it in the output folder for the utility suite, Documents\StelmackSoft\UtilitySuite. [Edit - my bad, thanks for the correction, Greg]
I think this is why your field pick league is blank: it doesn't have the correct path loaded for your save data. For instance, you put your MP league's sim files into So line 2 of that text document just has to be GPA is easier to run than Draft Analyzer, definitely. I don't use anything other than these two, I don't know if it's common to. Good luck, let me know if I can help any more. Last edited by aston217 : 01-15-2012 at 09:38 PM. |

No, it goes in the output folder for the utility suite, Documents\StelmackSoft\UtilitySuite. Run CheckPaths, it will tell you if it can't find your data directory.

Greg, after reading your thoughts on adding our own resources to the resource patcher in the "Fog of War" thread, I made an attempt tonight to package up a few graphics mods. I feel like I got pretty close, but the patching ultimately didn't work.
Quote:
I tried initially with Visual Studio's Visual C# but tbh I don't know this very well and I wasn't even sure where to start. Even after following some on-line instructions but they didn't didn't quite hit the mark. Anyway, then I tried it with Reshacker and I couldn't create a dll with this. But I could modify one of the packages you built. That seemed almost too good to be true, but anybody can do that! Quote:
So, I modify an existing dll in the ResourcePatcher directory to mirror the resources that I want to input and note the resource ID's from Reshacker. Quote:
Since the resource ID is the same as the FOF resource ID, my XML entries basically look like this --> substitution fofid="305" pkgid="305"[/quote] Noting that ones you built for cuervo and icy showed the pkgid's starting at 101...I was a little leary of my reasoning here...but I pressed on anyway. Quote:
This all seems to work as advertised, but ResourcePatcher returns each resource with "Finding...Appending...File Not Found...Done!" or some such notice (I don't recall the exact verbage as I'm not at my PC right now). Anyway, my initial guess is I'm not allowed to modify a pre-existing *.dll with Reshack because that's too easy and clearly i cheating...but hopefully you can tell me I should be able to. Anyway, if you have any ideas on what I'm doing wrong, I'm all ears. Thanks. |

Note that if you are editing a package I built, the resource ID should NOT match the FOF one, it will match what was in there originally (101, etc).
To create a resource DLL, see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/24b2tcy0.aspx

I only have access to the Visual Studios Express editions which I think are limiting my abilities to create resource-only dll's.
So, when I get some more time, I'll reattack this. |

Am I missing something to get this all installed?
First time trying to use this stuff. Win7. I went into regedit and changed the Full Path to C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football 2007. I created a FOFPATH.txt file in C:\Program Files (x86)\StelmackSoft\FOF2k7 Utility Suite that says: C:\Program Files (x86)\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football 2007\ C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football 2007\ Still, when I go to CheckPaths, the "FOF Install Path" line is blank, and when I click on it, it says "Cannot start process because a file name has not been provided." What am I missing? I've spent an hour trying to scan through these threads trying to figure out how to get this stuff to work. Couldn't directions just be included in a readme? |

Yeah, the FOFPATH.txt file should be in the output directory, not the install directory.
Code:
QB scrambles are not being counted as run plays. I assume that is by design, that they are counted as dropbacks. However, they aren't marked as scrambles anywhere and the yardage is just missing. This is just a case of "it's not that important"? (And it probably isn't, as it isn't really part of the gameplan) |

I never seem to be able to get extractor working the way it seems to. Could that be because I primarily am using a laptop? It just stays on the one player or team report window. It never moves. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

You can run either. The exe just launches the MSI correctly, you can click on the MSI directly most likely. If that fails, launch the exe.

Cannot for the life of me figure out how to run Interrogator.
It finishes and everything, but I can't set an output folder, and I don't see any files output in any of the obvious places. Looked through some pages of this thread, but it seems obvious to everyone else! To be clear, FOFPATH.txt is set up, it can see the saved games, and it runs to completion and says "finished". I just can't see the results anywhere. Last edited by aston217 : 02-10-2012 at 12:50 PM. |

I answered my own question.
I eventually found them in the StelmackSoft Utility suite install directory - not the My Documents data directory. Seems like a non-obvious place, and the output folder can't be listed/set - but hopefully this will help anyone else who can't find them! I had to do a windows search of the CSV files Interrogator claimed it was generating. Must've missed something |

Once upon a time I had trouble running extractor on the whole league (for mock drafts) and very knowledgeable people I asked said "it happens" or "sometimes it won't work" (it never did for me).
I just want to say that thanks to the genius of aston I figured it out (ok, he did): you need extractor not to block the game window when running extractor (and then leave the pc alone). Just dropping that here for future generations. |

I am trying to use the draft recorder in windows 7, running under a compatability mode and as administrator. Each time I try it tells me it can't find the draft class window. The game is open, with the draft window open. Any ideas?

Okay, not sure what happened but it is semi-working now. Now it will say that the lines are messed up, if I highlight the player to be drafted it will draft that player, then tell me the lines are messed up and it can't find the next player, until I highlight that player. any ideas? |

I missed that, too, back when I first read it. It's a bit obscure, but you're right, it does say so. Seems like there's a sentence missing. Something like: Leave the game window uncovered while doing this. Otherwise it is no longer necessary to avoid covering up the FOF window for grabbing draft classes, staff, or an individual team's roster. Last edited by Firefly : 03-03-2012 at 08:34 PM. |

I have a question about the gameplan analyzer. I recently purchased a computer with win7. I put the FOFPATH in and the analyzer seemed to be working. However, I just played a week in my mp league and the analyzer isn't including the data from that week. I tried to restart FOF and the analyzer and it still is not including it. Any thoughts on what the issue could be?
