    He missed a wide open lay in [emoji30]

    What slider can I tweak to limit that?

    USER Layup/Inside Shot Success. You could also increase the Attempt Dunks and/or Dunk in Traffic Frequency so that he doesn’t go for the layup when that open under the basket.

    Just lower the CPU block slider to limit the amount of successful blocks. Otherwise you can decrease either/both of the (Release) defense sliders if you want them to be less accurate and aggressive with their shot contests.

      If you need play versus good AI (stop stupid shoot...), you must change in squad coach setting "using tactict 100--->0 " (and you make that for all team)

        Newbie here. How do you chose the gamestyle (e.g., Hall of Fame) and keep it that way after you edit the sliders? I see some people here talking about playing with these sliders under a certain gameplay setting but doesn't it change the setting to custom if you edit the sliders? Seems like it has to be HoF or edited sliders. Not both

          Start at Hall of Fame, then set the sliders. The game will always change the difficulty to Custom [emoji1303]

            If I want to lower the amount of “and ones” the user gets. But I don’t want to mess up the amount of free throws I am getting…

            Should I lower contact shot success which would cause less “and ones” which can affect the amount of free throws attempted by the user?

            Yup, lower Contact Shot Success and you’ll be set!

              Hello Eccentric,

              I've followed your work for years and i'm a big fan and with that I want to first say thank you for your hard work and time sacrificed. After reading much of your information the thing that I've taken away from your thread was more foul shooting for the CPU and getting the computer Star Players to be in attack mode. After running a couple of tests (not perfect, but close) I've found out that the two things that impact the those things the most are the Player Movements on the Court and Team Defense i.e Drive Contact Shot Frequency, Inside Contact Shot Frequency and so on. Below you will find my personal sliders for those two that have created great results.

              Defense Hum/CPU

              Driving Contact Shot Frequency - 0/0
              Inside Contact Shot Frequency - 100/100
              Layup Defense Strength (Takeoff) - 50/0
              Layup Defense Strength (Release) - 50/0
              Jump Shot Defense Strength (Gather) - 50/0
              Jump Shot Defense Strength (Release) - 50/0
              Help Defense Strength - 50/50
              Steal Success - 50/50

              Movement Hum/CPU

              Speed with Ball (Max rating) - 100/100
              Speed with Ball (Min rating) – 30/30
              Acceleration with Ball (Max rating) -80/80
              Acceleration with Ball (Min rating) - 30/30
              Speed without Ball (Max rating) - 100/100
              Speed without Ball (Min rating) - 30/30
              Acceleration without Ball (Max rating) - 80/80
              Acceleration without Ball (Min rating) - 30/30


              *One thing you'll want to adjust in coaching/defense adjustments is on-ball defense to guard tight, this will help with the CPU higher fg% shooting clip*

                Glad to hear it man! Thanks for the kind words [emoji4]

                I’ll give your settings a try tonight after work! I have to ask though, don’t players with the ball move at ridiculous speeds with those Movement settings?

                  Eccentric,

                  Do you think tendencies sliders can be used independently (i.e. in my newbie AllStar slider set) or are they related to other values in the slider set ?

                  Thanks for your advices

                    Go ahead! Tendencies don’t heavily rely on other sliders too much, so any differences should be minimal.

                      Eccentric it definitely does speed the players up, but when you adjust the game speed setting it creates a nice fluid look without eliminating constant body movements of players on Offense and allowing the stars to be explosive.

                        Which Game Speed are you using? I can’t go lower than 48 as certain animations (jump shot, shot contest, contested layups, step-back gather, etc) are simply too slow at lower settings (and almost too slow at 48, but things get even more arcade-like at higher Game Speed settings).

                          As u can see in the pics Portis has the ball under the basket with space and time and doesn’t put it back up. I even backed up with Jeff Green in the 3rd just to see if he would attempt to dunk it or lay it in but nothing.

                          Also, I’ve noticed that the CPU would drive in and drible in the same spot once or twice before passing it to the big or kicking it out. CPU isn’t aggressive enough in the paint.

                          The close shot Tendency is broken. If you have it lower that 25 the cpu stalls while I’m the paint.

                            Okay that is something i failed to mention. I actually play on a her speed to create that nab style pace so it's set to 65. I'll try to lower it and see if plays the same. My biggest thing is making player play like themselves and whenever I've played around with player movement & defense strength it produces solid results. I'll keep you updated though with a couple more adjustments tonight.

                              That would explain it.


                              And yet if you have it set at even 15 the AI rushes terrible floaters or contested runners that have no shot of going in...

                                You play on 65 Game Speed with movement sliders set that high? That’s WAY too fast to be realistic IMO, players skate around the court and change directions in the blink of an eye before immediately snapping from a walk to full-sprint speed.
