New Rosters?

millhousebc · 05-14-2007, 02:44 AM

Hey guys, just starting to get the details of playing the game, but before I start a career, I was wondering if anyone was close to releasing the new rosters with the 2007 draft choices with thier teams? I thought I had read something about it on another thread but can't find it now.

Thanks

yabanci · 05-14-2007, 07:54 AM

SteveMax58 and I are collaborating on a 2007 real player file that should be posted here sometime in xxx August.

JoeRockhead · 05-15-2007, 01:42 AM

Yes!

michael1123 · 06-02-2007, 10:49 AM

Bump.

Anyone close to releasing a 2007 roster file?

Sorry, but I'm really itching to give fixing the Lions another go.

millhousebc · 06-04-2007, 01:51 PM

There is no "fixing the Lions.".....lol

Sure there is.

1. Fire Millen.
2. Tear the roof off Ford Field.
3. Pray.

Back on topic, I would have already been on a roster set, but the last two times I tried, just as I got close... better sets came about! Maybe the wait is on Trent Green...

I can't wait for these new rosters to come out

michael1123 · 08-04-2007, 03:32 AM

Seriously, none have been made yet? I remember someone saying theirs would be done in June. :-(

nilodor · 08-04-2007, 10:18 AM

I think Yabanci and SteveMax are working on one, probably be done soon.

I can't wait to see what Yabanci and SteveMax have done with the new rosters. I'm pumped to start up the offical 2007 FOF season!

Maybe it's just me, but I don't understand what the allure of updated rosters is. Why not take the 2006 rosters and the 2007 draft file and do the draft? Sure it's not historically correct, but it's the fun part of FOF.

Done that many times already.

I play a bunch of different solo seasons and stop when I get bored. Having the current up to date rosters is something I'm in the mood for.

Right now, I started a career on my birthdate of 1971 with the Ravens.. talk about tough... all 1 year contracts and a terrible team.

Richard Weed · 08-13-2007, 07:24 AM

Gotcha. It's just that it takes me so long to run a career, I don't want to start over. I started in 1966 with the Raiders and it's not a bad team. Now would I want to start with the 2006 Raiders...hmmmmm....maybe that updated roster would be great!

Not just you.

I'm in 2037 in my 6.0e career. I don't see any chance of me starting over unless a patch or update came out that made fundamental changes to the nature of the game.

You're the exception to the rule.

Will these work for FOF 2004?

yes, there will be one version for FOF2k7 and another for FOF2k4.

bwyant32 · 08-24-2007, 05:51 PM

Did you hand do all the ratings player by player in your update?

yes, nearly all significant players have been given both an overall rating and ratings for specific skills. SteveMax58 gets credit for most of the ratings. I gave them a second look and made various adjustments here and there.

The csv's will be provided so that you can edit the rosters as you see fit.

bwyant32 · 08-24-2007, 06:37 PM

Awesome, I am excited to fire up an online league with these rosters.

M GO BLUE!!! · 08-25-2007, 10:25 AM

Woo Hoo!

beatle · 08-25-2007, 01:58 PM

Will the CVS file be available as well as the regular roster file?

The Walgreens file will be available, but not the CVS.

see post 25, above.

michael1123 · 08-25-2007, 10:01 PM

What's used to edit CSV files?

I looked in the sticked download thread, but it didn't say.

a spreadsheet is used to edit csv files. The player file creator that comes with the game will convert the csv file to an fdt file that can be loaded when you start a new career. If you do not have a spreadsheet (Microsoft Excel is most common), you should download the free openoffice suite, which is what I use. Instructions will be provided when I post the files.

bwyant32 · 08-27-2007, 08:35 AM

Any ETA on which day these will be released? Or will it be a much welcomed suprise?

There are no guarantees in life, but it should be posted here on Thursday evening, August 30.

ekauffman · 08-31-2007, 08:14 AM

I'm being patient....I do know this is going to be a lot of work.

Although I checked the site, like 20 times yesterday.

FBPro · 09-03-2007, 06:15 PM

What about a draft file for 2008 with this year's seniors, etc? I thought that I had seen one but can't locate it now.

I did that last year but not this year. I don't think anybody has made a 2008 draft file yet.
