Suggestion for 1.07

[lol]

Andrew can you make a roster patch using hoopscitylive ratings??? their patch is not updated (Dec. 19, 2002) and i really like how they tweaked the ratings of each player! thanks...

[Andrew]

Sorry, hoopscitylive did not give me permission to use their tweaks, while DK did.

Andrew,

I agree with him. I've tried dk's and hoopscity and i really like hoopscity. Have ask permission from mike aparicio, maybe he'll allow it.

[Andrew]

That's the point, both DK and Mike were asked, only DK gave me permission.

Andrew, can you maybe adjust the speed? cause IMO they run way to fast even with DK´s tweaks

[Andrew]

I can give it a shot. I can't guarantee perfect results though.

I don't prefer HoopscityLive's tweaks. It's even faster speed!
But, try taking a look on Zaxis' (Z's) tweaks. They're pretty good i think!

I tried them, they even faster then Andrews, btw: can you also adjust quickness!?? maybe thats whats bothering me.

[Bill Russell]

I would agree the speed and quickness are too high.

IMHO the stats would be perfect for realistic 12-min quarter games if the speed, quickness and FG% could be adjusted just a little bit...

my last request Andrew, the dunking should be lower. I always get a 360 windmill or 360 behind the back true a zone defense.

To be honest, I'm not convinced that significantly lowering the speed does much to slow the game down. I'm also not a fan of the way the tweaked rosters adversely affect Franchise mode. Lowering speed and quickness also lowers the overall rating - meaning guards are usually underrated.

There's only so much changing the ratings will accomplish. I only provide a tweaked version by request - in my experience, they only cause problems, since Franchise is the most popular mode, and if they were not popular with the community, I wouldn't provide them.

Lowering the dunk rating will not change the style of dunks - changing DUNKPACK will. Unfortunately, that would mean everyone would be doing the same kind of dunks. As I said before, changing the ratings only goes so far in affecting gameplay. I could try a few things, but I wouldn't remain too optimistic about the results in 12 minute quarters.
