Re: APF 2K8 PC Editor Bugs/Comments/Requests Thread

I just want to know if I'm doing something different than you guys are because no one seems to be having the error that I am. Basically what I do is load up the game, save the Roster to the Harddrive. Insert memory stick, save that same roster to the memory stick. Put the stick in PC, load the ROS file, drag it to the editor. Go into offline mode (i dont plan on ever playing online) , edit names, save... Resign the file with modio, drag it back to usbfxui save on stick, then load from stick using the Xbox. When i did this the first couple of times the day the editor came out, it worked fine. But as of last night when I do this..all names are replaced with numbers like on NCAA Football Series. Not to mention sometimes the editor doesnt allow me to Check and Uncheck user controlled teams...I just want to know if I'm doing something wrong in my steps.

Basically what I'm trying to do is create and entirely fictional league, and get rid of all the older facemasks and neck rolls and make it more modernized. I spent countless hours doing this and after redoing all players in the game I get this error...bummer...

Would having multiple .ROS files on your computer cause the problem? I'm stumped..

Re: APF 2K8 PC Editor Bugs/Comments/Requests Thread

Something just isnt right..even when I use default rosters, make a simple edit in Online mode by just changing a star players first name..select 8 teams as user controlled...I go back to the game..it gives me the the "no free cloned player slots" error

Re: APF 2K8 PC Editor Bugs/Comments/Requests Thread

I figured out the issue. In order to be able to go in the game itself and edit the teams you have to have 2 Golds, 3 Silver and 6 Bronze. Because its like youre creating a team and thats the only way to by pass that screen. So just give anyone on your Roster 2 Gold 3 SIlver and 6 Bronze, and you should be able to go in an edit.

Correct. You have 20 created players. If you want the other 9 players to be a gold, silver or bronze 'level'... for an example, make him gold in editor, go to APF on 360 and edit him (date of birth for example), then go to editor and make him a non star. He will be 'locked in' as a gold CAP but you will not exceed your 11 stars on field requirement.

Do this for 11 CAPs.
Edit 22 generics for name, #, ht, wt of choice.
42 'created' players on field!

Everything is working fine so far, but for some reason I can't edit Jim Otto.

Even if I just select him and press accept an error message appears. the error report is in german so I'm not sure if you would find it useful if i post it here.

Its not a big deal bit i did find it weird.

edit: nevermind, I'm stupid. its the jersey number.

Re: APF 2K8 PC Editor Bugs/Comments/Requests Thread

Okay after successfully editing 9 of the 24 teams in the game, I've come across the same problem. Its giving me the error again, but I'm able to still create and edit the uniforms, but the game freezes when trying to play a game with those teams. And I only have 11 star players on the teams..any suggestions...

Re: APF 2K8 PC Editor Bugs/Comments/Requests Thread

I'm also having an issue with Team Number 17 on the File even showing up to even attempt to edit in game...I have no idea whats going on. I've been able to edit All of the generic CPU teams and change their uniforms, but I keep getting the "No Free Cloned Player Spots" , which is keeping me from actually playing a game/season because it will Freeze. But the First 8 teams I created, didnt give me that error, and I can pick those teams and play with no issue. It's teams 9 - 24 that are giving me fits, with Team Number 17 wont even show up.

Discovered manually Changing a teams Name in the Editor (offline mode) causes the game to Freeze when attempting to start Season mode

Re: APF 2K8 PC Editor Bugs/Comments/Requests Thread

KingJavo, here's a couple of quick things that need to be addressed:

- Johnny Unitas has his Picture missing in the editor as an option

- For some reason I've had two players on my first created team missing from the editor that are in the game and have not been edited in any way in the past. Not sure what is going on but I'll try and figure it out. Wasn't sure if anyone else has had any problems with it. It's a backup FS and a third string ILB. Guess they could be somewhere else in the file.

- Just to echo what decado said, Jim Otto's jersey number 00 doesn't work right. When selecting 00 as a jersey number in the editor, it shows up as just 0 in the game. If you attempt to edit it in the game to 00, it is easily fixed but when you try to edit him back in the editor it resets his jersey number so you can't keep it at 00.

- On the None option for PBP and Face going from 0000 to 28D2, I guess that doesn't really need to happen if you end up making the editor have all the same things as Finn's. Uploading it to his will be obsolete so the change wouldn't be necessary.

1. I'll add Unitas in.
2. I would search for them ctrl-f and see what team they show up as in the editor. They're probably just on another team. Remember this occurs because I still haven't found how players are assigned to a team and I'm just going by sequence.
3. I'll check the 00 issue. Thought I had tested that already.
4. I think I already switched it to the new number.

Cool. Thanks. They're just little things but I really appreciate that you're following up and still working on the editor.

Re: APF 2K8 PC Editor Bugs/Comments/Requests Thread

So I just finished up trying to fully create my Steelers. But when renaming generic players it replaces names of other players. For example, Cam Thomas the backup DT, what I did was renamed him to Cambell Thomas in the editor and then renamed him to Cam Thomas in game after I made him a created from a generic. Now Earl Campbell is Earl Thomas.

This also happened when I named my backup FS (Robert Golden) in the editor Robert Golic, changed him to created, and then in game change his last name to Golden. Now Mike Golic is Mike Golden.

Am I going about this the wrong way? Is there some process that I should go about in doing what I'm trying to do so that it doesn't mess up other players' names?
