Re: EA CFB 25 Custom Playbook Thread

Where is the spread triple option? The only triple options I've seen are from the flexbone stuff in the service academy playbooks.

2 back shotgun sets have triple option as well as the pistol.

I have tons of triple options in my all SG spread option playbook. If the “by concept” section isn’t omitting any I have 19 triple options.

I have a bunch of triple options in my 6 different split sets.
I have motion triple options;
Slot triple options;
Shovel options

Thanks!

One more question: Can custom playbooks be used in online dynasties?

Re: EA CFB 25 Custom Playbook Thread

These are the non old school / shotgun formations /sets with triple options. I’ve got them all in my playbook (Retro run heavy powerbone) ID is in the sig. Some of these may have different versions of options that are kinda close. But as far as the one with specific triple option in the Title. This doesn’t count your Maryland I, wishbone types of jet/speed options

Pistol
Full house close
Train
Flexbone slot
Full house
Flexbone trips

Are there any goal line fade plays in playbooks? Was looking for one to add to a playbook.

Re: EA CFB 25 Custom Playbook Thread

Does anyone have, or know where to find, information about what each formation's default personnel is?

From what I can tell, there is NO way in the custom playbook area to see if a formation is 4WR or has a TE, etc.

Ideally would be great to know if the formation uses your RB1, 3DRB or PWHB as well.

If this information is not available then I might spend some time putting together a spreadsheet to share. However next week I'll be on vacation so it'll be at least two weeks before I could start on it.

I don't think there is but a quick cheat for how EA tends to name them is anything with a U is 2TE, anything with a Y is almost always 11 personnel (1HB/1TE) and if it doesn't explicitly say 4WR in a 3x1 formation (Trips/Trey/Trio) it's usually 11 personnel as well. I believe the Shotgun formations that are 3 and 4 WR use the 3DRB unless they are offset which I think uses the default HB. 13 (1HB/3TE), 22 (2HB/2TE), and 23 (2HB/3TE) personnel is the PWHB

It looks like the 3-3-5 custom playbook glitch is fixed. You can down add those formations and sets to the custom playbook.

Someone created this amazing spreadsheet for Madden 24 that has every play with detailed information. Every formation with the not only the personnel but also the alignments. https://forums.operationsports.com/f...m-gm-tool.html

I used to create a playbook where I could motion from one formation to another and then audible to a play in the other formation. Like I'd have a shotgun 11p 3x1, 2x2, and 1x3, which I could pick a play in the 2x2, line up, motion my slot wr from left to right, see what the defense does, and if I want, audible to a play in the 1x3 without the players all moving around again. Essentially I could call one play and have 12 audibles available with only 1 player moving.

Any idea if you can assign playbooks to CPU teams in Dynasty? Planning on doing a Slow Sim dynasty with some friends, toggling them to autopilot and assigning their downloaded custom playbooks to them so we can just watch the games

Re: EA CFB 25 Custom Playbook Thread

I cannot figure out how to set my custom playbook for my offline dynasty, I have to select it every time I start a game...it is not an option for my Head Coach. Anyone solved this issue?

Yes! I used it also! It's unfortunately very outdated now for CFB25. That's what led to my comment

Yes. A few pages back a Tennessee fan helped me with this. Go to your profile and set it as your default playbook. Then it’ll be the first option. Right now your profile is set to like “team specific” or whatever, so it changes based on the team you pick. When you set your custom playbook that’s always the first option.

Anyone have trouble loading/using a downloaded custom playbook?

I downloaded Coach Dan Casey's playbook. Its showing in my downloaded files. Can't get it to show in any of the playbook select menus.

I have done a lot of work on custom playbooks in madden and I would go into the audibles section to see the default personnel.. I am beginning to research custom playbooks for NCAA before I dive in. It helps to find these tricks & lessons first. Sometimes a particular starter book helps keep things organized I found in Madden over the years. .I used to use one that had one of each different formation type and keep one of those from the original book rather than deleting and it seemd to cause less glitches.
