FIX: Setting Up A 32 Team OFFLINE CFM Instructions

[poster]

Armor and Sword has a good write up on the first page of his slider post that talks about what to do with coach firings on.

In case that helps anyone. I would want coach firings on as well, and it seems he and others on the forum (from posts I have read) have found a way to make it work.

Thanks to everyone who has tested and worked on these things to help the community out!

Can I turn trades off holistically as part of this set up similar to coach firings?

Yes if the coach is fired or retired you will have to take actions for that team. That´s why i recommend to let coaches firing off. But i recommend to read Armor´s "how to" if you want to play with coach fire on.

I know, it can be a pain, but then again the good still weight the bad.

This will not eliminate drive goals and will cause Confidence to wreak havoc on your CFM (robo QB!) What is the difference between the two. Isn't setting everything to CPU essentially 'autopilot'?

For whatever reason setting AUTOPILOT to ON allows drive goals to go into effect and messes up confidence. Setting the Fill Roster/Sign FA's/etc to ON/CPU shuts off the drive goals.

Do you have to create a coach or just human control all 32 teams?

If you set up a 32 team CFM can you play any team's games with no effect on confidence or do you have to SIM everything other than your teams games?

Just want to know were not handcuffed to never using a tuner, if improvements can be proven at a later date, or vise versa begin with it and with to remove it.

This I don't know. I assume a new tuner, if accepted will apply to any currently running CFM.

They will and all you have to do is go in and double check the settings (click r3 and choose that team, then go to the settings menu) to be sure they are still set to ON for "Fill Roster, Sign FA's, etc.
