Temporary Roster Workaround

Aaah yes, marriage is the ultimate prevent defense, isn't it?

Theoretically (did I spell that right?), you should be fine taking a roster into Dynasty mode. However, if your roster is missing a team (ie FIU), then we don't know what will happen when FIU plays its games. We just figure it will be really bad, so we haven't tried! Make sure FIU is still in play now or view/edit rosters. If they are, you are safe to take that roster into dynasty mode.

When you say safe to take the roster into Dynasty, do you mean we can then edit our team at will within Dynasty mode without the bug occuring? If you only control one team, you're essentially editing the same team over and over again and since it's the number of teams you edit that causes the crash, editing just the one in dynasty should be fine right?

Hmm, now Adam this is an argument to be able to export dynasty rosters. Interesting, you could start a 120-team dynasty, go through, edit the rosters, then export them back out Of course the game may crash again as soon as you open the exported roster, so it's a risk.

Is it 10 teams total or 10 teams between saves?

Total.

Yeah, you should be ok.

Nice. I'm only a couple games in, and so far no problems so just wanted to see what you thought.

P.S. Loving the game so far. The campus newspapers added to Dynasty mode are a nice touch, and the Quick Call to recruits feature is amazing. Keep up the good work!

I'm running with DT Linder's roster d/l through TJdaSportsGuy's locker.

I'm rolling with Southern Cal, they are the only team I have edited. I just changed the sleeves and some equipment.

It's working like a charm.

I don't know how I didn't find this thread sooner...very encouraging news knowing that the roster issue will not affect dynasty mode. This is the question I have been trying to find an answer to for the past couple days.
