Finn,

Ok...those 2 issues appeared fixed in 260.

I am sorry if I asked this before, but is it possible for historic teams only (which are individual files) to have a field for new team name? So, if I wanted to take the 81 49ers, edit them to the 1970 team, and save as 70 49ers. Would this be possible? It shouldn't be associated with any particular Xbox folder since it is a single file. Would there be any semi-easy way to accomplish this?

Not a huge issue, as the team can be changed to 1970 players, but just shows up as 1981 49ers team name in the game itself...

Looks good...works in game. Team shows up as 54 Bengals in the game. I actually changed the name of the zip file to 54 as well, but that still showed as 88 Bengals when I loaded it to the drive. That's ok though...I can always change the name and save a s anew team in the game.

Thanks Finn! I think you nailed it. I will change a full team once you release the next version with this functioanlity and let you know how it goes...

261 is up with it.. Right click on the classic team name to change the year. I can't change the save name so you will have to save as the correct name in-game.

Thanks Finn! This opens up a million new teams for historic junkies! Appreciate the effort...

Dare I even ask?? .....

Is it possible from a db point of view, to have a regular roster file loaded, and then have an import function that would read a historic team file and overwrite the current team active in the editor? We would import a historic file for each team in the regular roster (78 Steelers to overwrite current Steelers, 71 Cowboys to overwrite current Cowboys, etc...).

This would allow us to import a historic file for each franchise and play a season mode with these oldtime teams. As you know, rigt now all we can do is play exhibition.

Let me know your thoughts on this one...and yes, this is for sure worth a Paypal donation!!

Actually, I can edit the names themselves by typing them in. I have done like 15 players (first & last names) and thus far, the file has saved and loaded fine. I even played a few exhibition games last night and I didnt have any problems.

Finn,

Can you look at this file for me? There is a player in here with no last name and he cannot be edited. The file saves ok but the game freezes when you try to use this team. Let me know if fixable.

Thanks!
