Roster editor possible - But I'll need some help

Re: Roster editor possible - But I'll need some help

Any way to tweak the secondary to lower the amount of INT's in the game? The secondary guys never seem to drop a pass that is within 5 yards of them.

Not sure about that one - especially considering there is no definitive 'catch' rating.

Yea, I always consider focus having to do with the catching, but if you lower focus for all the backs, they will probably leave their assignments and what not. So kinda screwed either way.

Finn if you don't want this on here you can pm it to me. Just wondering where your donations are at so I know whether or not I should donate (if you're already at your mark) or if you're not at your mark, how close you are so I can possibly donate the rest of the balance. Let me know buddy. Never used your 2k5 editor but I wish I'd known about it. This game rocks and has so much potential with the inclusion of edited ratings, rosters, and naturally, "real" teams. Though I'm loving it as is, it would literally be the best sports game I've ever played with the aforementioned adjustments. If you can provide those, my wallet is open.

Guys, please remember to donate to Finn to buy the game and make an editor for Backbreaker.
The faster he gets the money, the faster we get the editor.

I donated, a roster gui, plus all 32 nfl teams done will make this game unbelievable.

Yes,Finn belongs in the football videogame HOF.I've been doing community rosters for a few years.I'd say the ratings tweaks,since there are only four,to improve this game would be;

Bump up OL strength and possibly focus

Bump down D-line strength and possibly focus

Bump up QB strength and most importantly focus

Bump up WR and TE focus

Bump down DB focus

To what degree -who knows?Hopefully ratings really do work in this game though.

Re: Roster editor possible - But I'll need some help

This is what I did and it made the game competitive. It didn't fix everything though. The CPU caught me for 2 long passes where I was in zone and the S didn't get over in time. Overall the CPU moved the ball for medium drives.

Team- Passing, Risk/Reward DEF, Elusive
OFF 59
DEF 58
OVR 61

OFF players-
Focus * 1.1
QBs- 90

All DEF players-
Focus * .6

I played against the same team because I can't edit CPU teams unless you do it in R2BB or Season save.

Game 1- 5min Qs
CPU 24 - Me 10
Yards 250 - 150
Passing 202 - 104
Rushing 48 - 46
INT 0 - 4* All of them were my mistakes where you would expect them, throwing with a DB underneath and S over the top, throwing long with a S deep, etc

Sacks 2 - 3* nothing bad here, pressure came mainly from blitzing, not from DTs not getting blocked at all

Game 2- 5min Qs
CPU 20 - Me 24
Yards 264 - 297
Passing 212 - 207
Rushing 52 - 90
INT 5 - 4* Not as bad as it looks, these came from forcing it into zone defense
Sacks 2 - 5

Re: Roster editor possible - But I'll need some help

There are more ratings or the ratings are repeated in the file. I couldn't find the ratings for the team overall, so they are either in another file or somewhere in or around all the uniform and logo data.

Doesn't look too bad other than int's,which doesn't worry me much about user int's because a human can get better.I've always said that in football videogames you need to have db's with 'hands of stone' to some extent or dumb them down some.

High hopes we can get a patch that IMPROVES THE cpu's offense and slowes the pass rush a tad. With that it would be one of the best sports games.

Re: Roster editor possible - But I'll need some help

I actually came up with a decent ratings combo that has yielded very good results. I created the Giants and Cowboys. So far I have only fixed the Giants and I like what I see. Next will be the Cowbys. I will post a vid when I am done showing off the game play, plus I will post what and how I edited the players to get some nice results. I think I got it where I want it now.

how much does he need to get the game?

Re: Roster editor possible - But I'll need some help

Somebody help. Can I have a link to the exact program that you are using? Also, can you tell the exact steps that you used?

Can't wait to see it! If we can improve the CPU offense and tone down defense a bit, we've got a great game on our hands.
