Answer to your question is yes.

I have no idea if i'll have time for it, but i would love to try to get football/pictures of the 1978 Tech team and get the equipment right. At least the big players.

Huge props to pinbw for getting this working. And thanks Panda for hosting.

Can you upload the who's number 1 file into your locker if you don't mind?

He converted the files from their original PS3 versions, and if you prefer the offline file you can find it here: https://forums.operationsports.com/f...93&postcount=2 If anyone has the free time to do semi-accurate equipment edits a la what I did with Billy Sims, JC Watts, Kellen Winslow Sr. and Joe Montana, please have at it. I'm likely going to get started tonight but it'll be a long slog until I'm satisfied.

I got the '78 file from pinbw. Im actually doing this; started about 3 weeks ago. I started out with the intention of only doing a few teams, then said the hell with it, go for the gusto.

Eliminating equipment that hadn't yet been implemented in '78 (so the helmets are either Standard, Air XP, or Shutt: I hate they use helmets today, the look SO big and elongated). Also eliminating the back pad, the knee braces, the visors, the QB wristband, handwarmers; only wish the game had the old school neck braces, the J-pad (ha!) and some of the old school facemasks to really make it look in the era!

Also I'm re-ranking many of the players as well to bring them down, especially the speed attributes (which the game just always seemed to overweight).

Should be done by end of August. If anyone is interested I will put the file in my locker when done.

Peace y'all....

Forgot to mention: doing the big conferences as well as major independents. Not doing the likes of Utah St, Arkansas State, the MAC, etc. At least not this round; perhaps over the winter after the season.

Interested? I'm very interested. Please upload when finished. Thanks
Do you know if there's a way to re-rank the teams to their preseason '78 rankings?

Im sure there's a way to do that. However, Im ranking them based on how they finished the year. For example (loosely): 9+ wins = 88+ overall rating, 6-8 wins = 78-88 overall rating, less than 5 wins = 77 or below overall rating.
