Post Draft Roster Updated 8/9

[Ryan]

My main concern at this point is getting the correct ratings for players on my dynasty. They seem to be alright for the cpu teams but the are off for my team. I think its because when in dynasty your players on your team are duplicated in the players.dbf. for example I have Shannon Brown's rating at like 64-65 or something in the ratings.bat but in the dynasty he is a 93.

EDIT: Ok, nevermind the rating thing, I guess that Shannon Brown with a 512 offability is a 93 overall. Just a typo thats all.

[Unrestrict3D]

512? That's some sick awareness right there. Keep up the good work, OleEnglish.

Cant wait for this, you think it'll be 2 weeks before its done, or will it be ready by next week or are you not sure?

[noodle]

Didn't he say he'd release it by Memorial Day? I hope its that close this mod looks very decent, I created a new dynasty and I'm just awaiting the rookies.

I have too add a few more players and do some more work on the ratings before i release.

I also need to know how to change my draft players (wothout cf's) heads into generic faces. When I run the bat it turns the players heads pink. I tried changing iscreated, isgenerate but it didnt work.

[Christopherson]

I think you will need to set thier face id in the appearance.dbf to a number othr than -1. I dont know if you can just pick any random number, but I would bet so. I think it will just randomly generate a face for them after that.

I tried that before and it didnt work, but I found out it was because of a typo. So I will change the faces of those players who dont have cf's made for them into random faces. Now I just have to figure out which numbers are for lighter skin players and which are for darker players. I tried something like 251 for Fazekas but it made him have a darker tone head than his body.

[Christopherson]

hmmm.... maybe you start a dynasty, sim through it and get generated rookies, and then see if you could find some that would work. Actually, I guess you wouldnt even need to do that. Just open up the appearance.dbf and look at the generated rooks at the bottom of it. just find someone with a certain skin tone that you are looking for, and match it with the face ID. Wait, I just checked, nevermind, it just sets the generated rooks face ID to -1. So it actually makes them a cyberface assigned to a playerpkg like plyr061. So maybe if you set the new playerpkg to one of the generated rooks with the correct skintone it will work. If any of this makes sense now, I will be impressed. I wrote it all over like fifteen mintues! Good luck!

[Anthony15]

great to hear that its gonna be out tomorrow!

[Ryan]

great to hear that its gonna be out tomorrow!

Lets not get ahead of ourselves here.

[rickyw862004]

hey OleEnglish i just sent some more portraits to you

[Silas]

Will we be able to install this into our current dynasty? For example, i'm in the first season of my Dynasty as the Bucks, i'm about to start the playoffs but i havent quite done so yet, if i wait till this comes out to start the playoffs can i implement it, or can i start the playoffs and still implement it?

[Ryan]

Will we be able to install this into our current dynasty?

Yes

if i wait till this comes out to start the playoffs can i implement it, or can i start the playoffs and still implement it?

I do beleive that you can start your playoffs. You just have to run the draft.bat in your dynasty before the end of the season. Then you run the appearance and ratings ones at the begining of the next season.

But just to make sure, I'll test it on my dynasty. I'll post my results in a little while.

Yeah,I think what baldus says would be work.Everything associate with the cyberface and portraits is in appearance.dbf and players.dbf.And you can try the EA random draft ones,seeing what's the changing in the two files and comparing with your .bat.

Anyway,I hate pink faces and black head portraits,everyone hates them,too.

Hey,good luck for your excellent job!

[lovereggie31]

And is it possible to coach all these rookies to be freestyle superstar?EX.Adam Morrison as Score Outside,JJ Redick as Shooter,Sheldon Willams as Stopper Inside,James White as Highflyer.

[Silas]

And who are you rating the highest? I.E. some players are being picked for their potential while others are being picked for the immediate impatct they'll have, for instance in last years draft, Marvin Williams was picked for his potential so a destiny of 0 would be given to him, but a lower rating because people like Chris Paul and Andrew Bogut provide immediate impact...

I would say Adam Morrison, Brandon Roy, and LaMarcus Aldrige are immediate impact players while people like Barnagni, and Rudy Gay are potential type players.

[R.J.]

I have some portraits, like Aldridge, Bargnani, Morrison, etc. if you want them.
