Madden Roster Editor V1

[Xanathol]

Posting a new update to...

1. Fix the exceptions on equip from 13 rosters.

2. Adding a Validate Players option that will make sure all players equipment is valid for 12, no stats over 99, and a valid college is chosen.

3. Check Duplicates to check for player ID duplicates... just in case.

4. Delete Player on the right-click menu ( or just hit delete in the main list ). There is NO confirmation box ( so its faster to delete a number of players ) so pay attention!



Big reasons for pushing this out now are the exceptions and that I found an issue where too many players on a roster causes issues ( hang starting fantasy draft, for instance ). The DB technically has space, but evidently the game doesn't. I suggest keeping rosters to around ~2400 players ( not counting greats ) as that seemed to work for me. YMMV.

Hey Xan,
maybe you can use the value N/A for whats missing between the 12 and 13 rosters. Because the value "None" when referring to wristbands or whatever may be mistaken for no wristband instead of being equipment that doesn't exist and ends up replacing it with something generic. Just a thought. Awesome work man, you definitely the man.

Edit:
Actually want to refine my request. Is it possible to include the N/A Value to all pull down menus for when editing rosters older than 12 that may not have that specific field or option.

Xan, is there anyway you can add the ability to read Madden 13 CCM files in the editor? The patch improved Madden 13 tremendously and of course with custom rosters being able to be used in offline CCM, well it's going to be hard to play Madden 12 now.....only thing Madden 13 is missing now is the ability for us to customize our draft classes, hence my question

I don't have 13, so I have no way of working on it.

Something to be weary of for 13 users btw, is that since adding in the dropdowns for equipment & the subsequent exceptions, I put in checks to make sure 'invalid' entries ( by 12 standards ) were defaulted / changed. In other words, in the current version, if you load a 13 roster that you intend to use in 13 and click a player with equipment options not in 12, their equipment will be changed.

Since the file contains no tell-tale signs of differences between 12 & 13 ( other than invalid values ), there's no good way to have dropdowns for stuff that work for one & don't effect the other automatically. I'll see what I can do about a checkbox style option, but its going to cause a bit of rewrite in a lot of areas so we'll see.

Xan can I ask is the last selection tab after the position tab the years of experience tab if so I think this is the best way to find the UFA and just delete the players that have a salary of 31 or "310,000$" which every madden created UFA has.

Thanks for the new updates Xan.

I'd like to thank you for sir for explaining this in detail I found it quite informing and would like to know if there is a document or set of instructions explaining the various uses and functions in detail as to how to use this editor properly?
