Changing Draft Pick Names?

Is there a way to manipulate the FDT files in order to input your own created player names for the upcoming draft? Thanks!

You can edit them after creation in-game. Not sure if you can do anything to the FDT files themselves. Are these coming from TCY?

No, they are coming from another College Football game, do the names from TCY import into FOF? If so, I can spend the $20 and buy TCY.

Yes, the TCY names import just fine. If they are coming from a different college football game, you need to talk to whoever is creating the FDT file about how they are handling the names and see if you can get that fixed.

Thank you your help, I will go ahead and buy TCY. I have a Chiefs dynasty that I started in 1980 and can use the historical draft files up until 2006, then since I like to do a college football review in my write up I can continue that after 2006, thanks!

Caution, these threads threw a damper on my plans to use TCY drafts in FOF:

http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/...ad.php?t=54673

http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/...ad.php?t=54537

For example, the couple of times that I tried this, I did see the "all TEs importing with 0 for Big Play Receiving" problem mentioned in the second thread.
