How to install the real player names file in FOF2004.
 

Thanks again to primelord for coming through for us. ;) This file can be found {here}.

1. Download the file into your main install directory for FOF2004 (c:/Program Files/Solecismic Software/Front Office Football 2004/ is the default in XP.)

2. Make a backup of your original "players.fdt" file.

3. Rename "realname.fdt" to "players.fdt"

4. The above instructions will default the game to start with the real-name rosters. You can also choose to "start with alternative player file" and load the "realname.fdt" file at that point.

5. Enjoy!

i'm still stuck, when i click "here" i get the player generator. i click generate player file and get a box with "universe" at the top, when i click open i get cannot find file, what am i doing wrong?

thanks, i figured it out

Bumping this, 'cause I'm still getting an average of 1-2 e-mails/PM's per week asking how to use the real player file. :mad:

Why don't you tell us how you really feel, Ben ?

Oh no, not two e-mails a week!!!

:p

I agree that two e-mails a week is pretty trivial, but keep in mind he said e-mails/PMs!!!!!!! The horror!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Dola,

BTW Ben your use of the 's on the end of PMs is likely to make QuikSand short a circuit.

Bite me.
