Nice! My Delaware Valley University Aggies look pretty good there. I'm glad you're doing this again this year; I helped a little with last years and was glad it turned out so well.

Yeah man, I appreciated your help too. Being able to give the teams uniforms and some end zone artwork will take it to the next level. Very excited about this.

It's looking very, very good for this weekend. The hardest part is behind me...and like the older folk used to say...I'm in the short rows now. I have the stadiums done and I have 4 more uniforms to do which will be done by the end of the night. Tomorrow I will touch things up and find any mistakes I've made and hopefully I'll be done on Saturday.

In total, how many different stadiums did you make use of?
How did you handle playbooks and coaching game plans, etc? Is there info out there on this or did you just mix it up and use your imagination? I can’t wait to play this.

So as far as stadiums go, I gave each team a high school stadium because they resemble DIII stadiums the most. I googled every teams stadium to see what type of field surface and end zone art they had; I gave each team the field surface that they have in their real stadium; and the teams that had end zone art I attempted to replicate it as best I could. I have renamed and given every team their real stadium name located in their correct city and state.

As far as playbooks and game plans, that part will be more fictional in the sense of...whatever the team was running on the roster that I used at the time is what each team will be running. I felt like if anyone tries this roster out, they will have the freedoms to change those things if they like. I personally have custom playbooks that I created to use for teams in my dynasty as personal preference...especially for defense in order to try and curb the AI's desire to run play calls for all out blitzes that's easily exploitable by the user because we have the benefit of the "eye in the sky" view.

I'm about 90% done. I have a few things left to do and I'll be done.

How many different high school stadiums are there in the game? Don't forget that many high school stadiums in places like Texas are actually quite large if you want to mix it up.

In 14 there are 11 total high school stadiums. In 12, I'm only seeing three but I'm attempting to use the identifiers from 14 to see if they work. If not, I'll have to use those 3 and maybe a couple of generic or bowl stadiums that are smallest in capacity. Looking at the numbers, there are only a handful of D3 teams that average over 10,000 fans...so I really don't want to put any teams in the other stadiums...it just wouldn't capture the feel of D3 football.
