Can someone test this file?

[FlyingFinn]

I am away from my xbox so I need some help. Enclosed is Puja's franchise file but with this year's schedule COMPLETELY accurate. All games are on the right day (No byes in week 3 and 6 teams with byes in week 6 and 8) and are at the correct time.

What I need is for you to make sure that no team has more then 1 bye and that the season sims correctly.

Thanks,
Finn

I just simmed through a season and there were no hangups at all. There was only one bye per team. The playoffs were about half accurate to RL. New England beat Tampa Bay. Bad. The only thing was when it got to the draft there were no real draftees. I thought Puja was going to put them in his latest file. Or was this just where you had edited the schedule? Well, I hope this helps. Brian

Yeah it helps and is good news. This was an older file from puja I had available and I used it just to test the new schedule. Before, the schedule could not be accurate because it was expecting 4 teams to have byes in week 3,6, and 8. However, I figured out how to set the number of byes each week so now it can be accurate with no byes in week 3 and 6 byes in week 6 and 8

Not yet. The editor that supports this schedule has not been released as I am still working on a few things. If you want me to apply it, email the file and I will fix the schedule and send it back.

I will probably be able to let you change dates/times/swap home and away. However, I am not sure if you will be able to move up/down in a given week as it appeared to affect seeding in the next week. More testing is needed.

It's great that you'll be able to allow us to edit the playoff games while not being able to move games up/down is a disappointment but it answers my question since 2K1 as to why the AFC playoff games were always listed as the first two with the NFC playoff games always listed as the last two for the wildcard and divisional rounds. That always bugged me but at least I know why it was programmed that way.

Any chance that the playoff teams can be switched? If so, it wouldnt matter if the seeding is affected because we would be able to fix it ourselves as we're playing through the playoffs.

Thanks for looking into this for me. It's greatly appreciated.

If you need any files to be tested, let me know since I'll be off from work the next five days starting tomorrow (Friday) for my vacation. Go Cowboys!!! T.O., T.O., T.O.!!!

Thanks FINN.
