I didnt test this on my PS2 console, as i was working on this thing on my computer while watching football all weekend on the TV the console is hooked to. Haha. I only used the emulator for trials. I went through a season and half with 06 and a couple seasons with 12. Madden 06 can be frustrating to use though, as the AI is a tad stupid, and one may run out of positional players so you may have to remove certain players from teams with more of that position like tackles. Id have to redo the database to add more, but it does work the way it is and should be improved after year one.

Madden 06 roster freezes at the loading of the game or when you load manually? Any errors or anything? Console or emulator?

Unfortunately, the franchise hangs when I try to play games. I've tried Panthers/Broncos and Colts/Broncos.

Edit: I see it's just like last franchise file, for some reason I can only play certain teams. I'm currently playing Saints/Giants. I had this issue last time with Packer games, and possibly Panthers games.

This is using Madden 06 btw.

Using Madden 12 and having no issues so far. Will test more when I get time this weekend.

I'm still working on this, but I've uncovered two issues with the franchise file for 06 that I have fixed:
- You forgot to remove/fix coaches portraits, so it was causing it to crash when you tried to access the coaches strategy.
- The issues with the crashing when trying to play packers/panthers/etc was because of the stadium tab. I'm going to try to relocate the Rams (if it hasn't been done already, haven't checked don't know if I need to still do this in my franchise) the other stadiums have been renamed, I haven't touched the attendance yet, because I don't want the game to crash.

Only thing left to do is to add the schedule and possibly sim a few years ahead so that it doesn't crash like last seasons did. (This could possibly be cause of the schedule, I hope not though.)

Once I'm done I'll post the updated franchise file.

Oh cool. Thanks. I think part of the problem was that it was a direct port (for the most part) of the PSP file, so some of the stuff may not correspond - like the stadium.

Sorry, I havent put in any time into the Madden series.

No worries, we wouldn't have this at all if it weren't for you.

Was Bridgewater deleted on purpose?

Here's the updated files.

It's console and it freezes on the loading screen. Sorry haven't had internet at home for a while. I'll try cleaning my disc, because it froze with the default rosters too.
