CRACKED IT! 100+ usable teams in PLAY NOW.

[hhsrudy4]

I have figured out how to unlock 100+ useable teams via play now. I have also figured out how to add individual rosters for all 100 teams. As of right now this is only available via PLAY NOW but I'm still digging around. I highly doubt Franchise is crackable beyond 32 teams but if it is I will figure it out eventually.

Anyways just wanted to give you guys a sneak peek and show proof that we can at least have 100+ teams in play now. Also I've already been working on a big roster but still needs quite a bit of work and then making it useable for 100+ teams is gonna take some time. Once i get the roster set I plan on doing a beta version and will need testers. If everything works right I will begin uniforms/logos ect. If anyone wants to help out with that part that'd be awesome if not I'll get it done eventually.

(Sorry for the poor video quality but my computer was being a punk with Frosty and Madden open and couldn't get it to screengrab correctly so just grabbed my phone and took the video.)

What process did you use? Modder wise would always like to learn.

THIS IS GREAT NEWS!!!
I won't buy Madden 20 until the mods are completed as I had just purchased Madden 19' in June and I am still playing it a ton (Revival Mod, College Mod)... If it wasn't for the game returning to PC and the modding, there is no way that I would be purchasing Madden as I haven't liked the game since Madden 12'...

great job! Please share with the CFB team lol. Even if they only add a few extra this will be great.

There is nothing to share. We have known how to do this since M19 (just changing values of what extra teams are visible in gamemode.db), there’s several reasons it didn’t work last year and there are some surprises we have in store, but this post altogether is a little premature. I’ll leave it at that and let him figure it out.

Re: CRACKED IT! 100+ usable teams in PLAY NOW.

This is amazing, can't wait to see 100 College Teams....Make sure my ACC teams make it...

Going to be a nice season...

Also I could make a better CFBM20 Logo that looks authentic.

You’re not getting 100 teams, period. Like I said, people get excited when they find something and make these claims, when it’s not going to work. There’s several reasons.

And it makes it look like we can add all this stuff, which isn’t possible.. once he hits the hard limits, you guys excited to see 100 teams are going to be deeply disappointed.

I truly wish guys would test everything fully and make sure they understand what’s working either 100% before making these claims. Anyone can make the teams appear in play now. The ones who actually know what’s required to get them to be properly played, knows better than to expect 100 teams. You can get more than 32, absolutely, but the claim 100+ is completely inaccurate.

This wasn't just a basic making the teams visible. I'm way beyond that. All of the teams (70ish) in the video have rosters and are playable. That was the whole point of the video. Give me a little bit and when I get home I'll finish adding teams and put it in a mod for you to see for yourself. Only the 32 NFL teams are in the normal channel that everyone's knows. I found a backdoor around the "hard cap."

I truly hope I’m wrong, just don’t think you’re looking at the bigger picture. Anyways, I know you can reach around 80ish (not in the best of ways) but my issue was the claim of 100+. Prove me wrong, but I hope everyone understands, we won’t have nowhere near 100 college teams at all. Lol.

I suppose the title of the thread could be considered a tad misleading, but to be fair, the video he linked was titled "Beta Test" and not "it's 100% working totes for sure".

Re: CRACKED IT! 100+ usable teams in PLAY NOW.

My nod manager is not working even after deleting the live content folders, can you help me?

Re: CRACKED IT! 100+ usable teams in PLAY NOW.

*Link removed*

Here is 101 Working teams. This does not include LSU, USC, Florida or Texas. As we know those are working teams and I had working earlier but when I added more teams to get over 100 I must of messed something up. Will figure it out later but wanted to get this out.

Notes*
-No teams have depth chart currently because I haven't gotten that far yet and they cannot be edited from the "Manage Rosters" area. Had to remove them because bad depth charts will cause it to crash but no DCH will allow it to pass. Will fix in time.
-Rosters may be attached to random teams currently as I was just trying to get a test file.


I have tested every team though i could have missed on turning off visibility on a team or two but pretty sure I hid all of the none working teams.


TBR let me know when grab this file and I'm going to pull it down because it's still a long way from being done.

Re: CRACKED IT! 100+ usable teams in PLAY NOW.

I have a weird feeling that 100+ college teams is going to be a possibility. Might not be until 5 years later, but it could happen. I remember thinking that NCAA 14 uniforms couldn't be modded, but then RPCS3 came out, and I was the first person to post proof of a modded jersey loading in game. At this point, I wouldn't call anything impossible. Great work by every one here who are working on making this game great.

Re: CRACKED IT! 100+ usable teams in PLAY NOW.

As the person who makes the rosters for the CFBM mod who has been spending countless hours trying to maximize the numbers of teams you can have, I can tell you right now....NO 100+ teams are not possible. As TBR said, there are 500 other issues you have not encountered yet.

For one, your teams all have "rosters", sure....the SAME roster.
There is a hard limit on The number of players you can have.
There is also a limit on the number of usable Player ID's there are (although, I have a work around to this but it is VERY time consuming and also pushes you back to that hard limit.)

And another one, you have a very limited number of usable ASSETS in the game. You will not be able to accurately portray 100+ teams....in fact, the most I have figured out you can have at this time is roughly 49.

So please, do not post stuff like this until you have 100% CREATED 100+ teams, with accurate rosters and accurate assets. All you are doing is bringing us unnecessary questions and getting people pissed off when we are not making that false number of teams.

As I said I found a backdoor around the cap. I even sent TBR proof via a mod of 101 working teams ZERO share the same roster and will gladly send it to you. It IS possible and I am working on 105 team roster myself and will have it done with in the next couple days.

Re: CRACKED IT! 100+ usable teams in PLAY NOW.

Whether it’s true or not, we have to remember that no one knows the extent of what talents, abilities, software, editors, people etc.. a person has at their disposal, so just because you haven’t or can’t, doesn’t mean the same is necessarily applied to everyone else.

I will say this, I know of some folk that aren’t prominent posters on this forum that choose to stay in the backgrounds, that can give insight on how to do some things to the game beyond what current editors are providing, but I won’t name drop and let them chime in if/when they see fit.

Although there’s a plethora of threads consisting of ideologies/ideas that ended up being closed for one reason or another, we still must “respect” every posters participation on the forum until the mod’s see otherwise.

Have fun!!!
