Making of the Perfect Franchise and Draft Class

Re: Making of the Perfect Franchise and Draft Class

IllQuille, I could use some help with determining throwing motions for all the QB's in the class, as well as tendencies for all players. If you were interesed, you could just post or PM me them, I could simply set and not have to consider/research, would be a big time saver on that project.

Sure, I can get that. I'll aim for tonight or early tomorrow to finish.

Re: Making of the Perfect Franchise and Draft Class

Yeah this used to happen but we found a fix for it. I'd say you should put Geno as the first round, third pick and experement with this fix http://www.operationsports.com/forum...taking-qb.html. It's worked everytime for me, and I still do it even when I use generic classes so a team like Tampa wont take a qb 2nd overall.

Found it - it was another table in the DB ( pretty easy to breakdown too ). Will add a 'draft fix up' button to the editor to set the priorities for each coach as illustrated in the link.

Re: Making of the Perfect Franchise and Draft Class

Also curious if you guys have tested the body composition changes and got them working. I copied Vince Wilfork's body traits to Johnathan Hankins and now my franchise won't load.

Nice thanks for those, will put them in and look forward to the others. The version 1 has had many body changes, well mostly to remove wing pads for now and other oddities. All those changes were made using the Raw Data fields but yes they have been tested and working. I have not tested edits made in the appearance tab yet, so cannot confirm on those. Maybe you just made a mistake with the file or something, as I'm sure everything is working.

Re: Making of the Perfect Franchise and Draft Class

I tried to import the draft class in a new franchise I started, but it didn't show up in the editor.....the draft option shows in the pull down, but when I selected it, it came up blank......my franchise was right at the stage when all the week four games were completed in preseason, but not yet advanced to the regular season......am I to sim completely past the preseason for the draft classes to import correctly?

Yes - the draft table is not populated until you enter the regular season.

Yeah, after running a few test I figured it out. I can't mess with the body composition after I import them into the game.

Thanks for that last set of tendencies. I'll be sure to get all those in for the next release. If your up for doing any of the other skill positions it would be welcome too. I have not yet tested changes in game for body stuff, but thats cool as I hope to have them all solid so that it's not required. I can assure you the next release will have good models, and if anything doesn't sit right with you, you'll be able to make the adjustments prior to your own use and in this case, most players will be done so it might just be a few players to your own liking. I didn't mess with O-line or D-line in last release much, because they needed the most work body wise. And the old editor made it harder, but with the new editor it's all coming along nicely. Thanks for the help man!

Re: Making of the Perfect Franchise and Draft Class

Anyone want to test my 2012 Draft Class? Just exported all players in the normal roster with 0 years experiance, changed all teams to draft class and saved. So far so good as far as importing into a franchise file but since I'm at work I can't load into the game.

Please let me know what it looks like when it loads...

I'll give it a test here shortly and report what happens.

Most players appear to be loading in game. Assuming I did what you wanted, I imported "all.csv" into franchise as draft class. In game all players are present in scouting window. However, no player has a portrait, and all are silhouettes . There are players with portraits, but not sure if they were in the draft class, for example. FB Jermichael Waters. But it looks like it does what you wanted for the most part.
