We are trying to use TCY for our league draft next year, so I played through, exported the draft for use, worked perfectly....untill.....I saw the damn draft. Not a single player that DOMINATED in college was even in the top 100 players, NOT A ONE!! Now, I understand that not all college players are successful in the NFL, but come on....not even ONE????? You have the starting qb for Florida State throws 98 td's in 2 years, he gets rated a 9/30??? What the f**k is that!!! The best qb in the draft throws for 2400 yards and 17 tds and 9 ints??? WHAT??? The best reciever gains 488 yards and 7 tds???? WHAT???? These are their senior year stats, how the hell did they even get in the draft?? The best linebacker: 42 tackles one interception???? You get the idea.
SO....I fiqured I would just edit their player files, even though this ment going through 200 out of a possible 900 players, just to try to get it right, however I cannot find a utility that lets me edit this file. Anyone who has run into this have any ideas? If this was addressed in the TCY patch, I cannot download that, the links don't seem to be working. SO....throw me out some ideas, I could sure use them, it would be cool to have a college undate every week for our league, just to add some flavor.

Make sure you have the 1.2a patch for TCY -- I just tried and had no problems downloading either patch.

Check the sticky mega-reference thread for a draft file editor.

Well, this has always been an issue between TCY/FOF (regardless of the versions you would use).

You can't bet on College studs to become high-profile Pro prospects...and in some ways, that's a shame because that would be awesome to follow, during the TCY college season, the progress and the stats being piled-up by a potential 1st round WR, and then see him make the smooth transition to the Pro game so that he's just as explosive in FOF and you can eventually Draft him.

Unfortunately, that barely happens and you're stuck with players that you've never heard from in College, sometimes guys that weren't even starters during their collegiate careers who end-up being top5 NFL picks...

I thought FOF2004 was the 1st version that allowed imports from TCY ??? :confused:

ok, thanks Dacman, that link you provided worked, the editor is a tad more confusing then lighthouses, but It still works, and FOF still fucks ya when ya actually upload up into the draft, it drops the stats by 10-20%, but thats livable. And really, Jim should fix that, I mean how interested would a pro team be in a player who wasn't even in the top 20% of college players? Doesn't make any sence!
