    The logos are listed first here at offset - IF3220
    Color palettes are listed first here at offset - IF0040

    There are other areas in the file that alter jersey style, stadium, and team name, but I only care at this moment about changing the default teams unis and colors.
    Damn, I thought all the uniforms and stuff were loaded onto the disk and there was a code to select which ones you want on the disk in the save file. Didn't realize the actual uniform hex code was in the save file.

    I know you can create default teams in the game. Couldn't you just create a default team and compare the codes in the HEX to search for them.

      No it creates a spot for your created teams uniform code in the save file. I actually found one of the teams anyway. The Chicago Beasts. I am gonna see if I can change it to another team uniform. What is really gonna be hard is matching team colors and uniform styles. They separated all that stuff out making it very difficult to match team to team.

        Yeah you can change the logos for the default teams. I was able to change the Chicago Beasts logo into the Pittsburgh Iron Men logo for the default team. One issue is that the Chicago Beasts kept their color scheme but have the Iron Men logo and jerseys. I guess what is next is to alter team colors for the default teams. I'll try that another time.

        Hopefully all the 24 default teams are close to each other and I don't have to look forever to find their location.

          Here is a pic just for proof. I don't want people thinking I am lying or something.

          As you can see my controller is on one side controlling a created team while I have the cpu team on the default chicago beasts. As you can see they now have the Ironmen logo and uniforms but still in Beasts colors.

          The Beasts also wear green.

            great work, so you could change the default teams to the NFL looking logos.

                  Are you using USBXTAFGUI? You need that and then just extract the roster file in folder 54540807, and then open it up in the hex editor.

                    That is what I am doing, and it finally worked but how do I test the file to see if it worked I'm a little confused. Thats the part I dont get. Thanks for the help AVONFTW.

                      After you make the changes put it back on the usb drive and load it up. if u edited a generic they will be in the edit player menu.

                        Re: So I changed the name of Calvary to Cowboys in season mode

                        Been playing around a little with the abilities spaces. I created a Jim Brown with the following abilities:

                        Quick Feet
                        Breakaway Burst
                        Branching Tackles
                        Strength Bonus
                        Stamina Bonus
                        Workhorse
                        Finesse and Power
                        (for some reason he also got Cadence, but I'm working on fixing that)

                        If you look at Rocky's list of abilities and where they are located, you will notice some abilities occupy the same space. So how do you get both Stamina Bonus and Strength Bonus when there is only one number for space 7? The answer is simple; just add the two numbers together. By adding 04 and 02 together, you get 06 which gives you both abilities for the price of one slot. This doesn't necessarily work for all numbers and spaces because there are many ways to add to get a number like 12 or 14. Theoretically, there really isn't a limit to how many abilities you can give a player, but the numbers can get a lot more complicated when you start having multiple abilities for one space. This gets me excited because I really want to create an accurate Lawrence Taylor (whenever someone finds the number and location for Swim for an OLB).

                        Also, there are some other things of note. One ability just doesn't occupy one space. Clutch might be at space 1, but it also might be at space 10 with a different number representing it. Also, (Finesse) and (Power) added together equal out to (Finesse and Power) (and maybe Cadence, more testing is necessary).

                          I will say that one thing this thread proves is that no-one designs save files sensibly lol. Maybe they do it for memory reasons, or solely to discourage the sort of thing seen in this thread, but still lol.

                            I hope this is true because I want to create an accurate Deion $anders.

I looked on page 13 and tried to give him some abilities but it didn't work. Am I doing something wrong? Any help is apreciated.
                                Are saving the file after edits and rehashing and resigning the file before you put into onto your usb drive? Those couple of things are really important.
