Madden PS2/PSP 2017-18 NFL Rosters and Franchise Mods

[antdroid]

2017-18 NFL Rosters for Madden on Playstation 2 and Playstation Portable
Brought to you by Reeshmd23 / Minotauri

Reeshmd23 ported over for PSP (Madden 08/Madden 12)
Minotauri ported over for PS2 (Madden 12)

Rosters:
Rosters use RogerJinx's Madden 08 PC roster as a base, which was imported and converted from EA's official Madden 18 update. Please note that you will see some positional overall ratings really high, especially fullbacks. This is due to how PS3 calculates vs how the older Maddens calculate overall.

Features:
Based on RogerJinx/EA Madden ratings
1867 Player Database
Player portraits set to None
Fixed Skin Tones
Auto Depth Chart
No starting injuries
Bug: Do not start a Franchise with this roster. It will crash. Separate Franchise files are included.


Franchises:
Franchise saves are included because they can be more heavily updated without doing mods to your game. In addition, the roster file will crash in Madden 08 if you try to start a franchise, so this is a workaround and improvement! Please note that you will see some positional overall ratings really high, especially fullbacks. This is due to how 16 calculates vs how the older Maddens calculate overall.

Features:
Based on RogerJinx Madden PC roster/EA Madden ratings
Large Player database
Updated Stadium Names
Updated Coaching Staffs
St Louis Rams are now the Los Angeles Rams
San Diego Chargers are now Los Angeles Chargers
Fixed skin tones
Player Portraits set to None
No Starting Injuries
Auto Depth-Chart

The franchise has every NFL team set to User Controlled, however, each team has been set to allow CPU to manage everything. Go into the Team Management screen to choose what team you want to be. I found this works best for the first season - the CPU doesn't seem to want to do in-season transactions even if it really really needs to and this screws everything up - but you can reset the cpu controlled teams after the first season in the offseason if you wish.



INSTALLATION

PSP

Download and Unzip contents.
The folders within SAVEDATA go in your /PSP/SAVEDATA folder on your mem card. It will override anything in your Save Slot #1 for Franchise/Roster, so back those up if you want.

PS2

Zip file includes MAX file for ActionReplay MAX Drive, and PSU file for FreeMcBoot/uLaunchELF. You may also use MyMC to import MAX files to your virtual memory cards. For other transfer tools, you may use PS2 Save Builder to convert saves to another format.

You say that the rosters can't load into a new franchise in Madden 2008. The same is true for Madden 12.

Yea probably true. I copied and pasted old info. At one time though, Madden 12 franchise mode did work without custom franchise saves. But, thats why we made those for everyone.

Even though the roster doesn't work, the franchise seemed to work fine, so thank you for that. Also, it seems like the player ratings are higher when you look at the depth chart than at the roster, which is good because you can't change them in franchise.

Franchise saves have been extremely buggy in Madden 06, so I stopped working on it.

If the roster would load into the franchise properly in Madden 11, I wouldn't mind one for that since you are playing a different schedule (the 2010 schedule).
