Changing Numbers of Players in Dynasty

Sat Feb 23, 2008 8:08 am

I want to ask how can i change,if it can,the numbers of players in a dynasty mode??? :)

Absolutely. Using DB Commander, open players.dbf and locate the player you wish to edit. From there, it's just a matter of changing the NUMBER field. The values are simply the exact numbers you wish to assign from 0-99, if you want to assign number 00 then you must use the value -1.

Since you're editing databases associated with a Dynasty, it's a good idea to make a backup first in case anything goes wrong.

When you move to the next cell (ie box) in the database, DB Commander should save automatically. You can download DB Commander here.

make sure you are editing the players.dbf file from your dynasty save folder. there's a possibility you're editing the regular or default rosters.

No.I'm sure that its the player.dbf file 100%

When you open the players.dbf file again, are the changes you made still there or have they reverted back to the old values?

Sun Mar 02, 2008 8:24 pm

Yes they are changed like i changed them.But in the game they aren't changed???? :(

That's really odd. Once you reload the Dynasty game, the changes should be there. The only other possibility is that you're editing the wrong file, since if the changes are being saved in the database - which they obviously are, if you open it up again and they're still there - once the file is reloaded in the game, they should show up.

Man I've done everything you said.Went to the saves,edited players.dbf and still nothing happend???? :(

Are you editing your own players or those on CPU teams? If it's your own players, there's two entries in the databases since one is used as a comparison in the Player Development display between seasons. Make sure you change both. Of course, if you're changing the jersey numbers for your own players, you can just do that within the game in Edit Player (you can edit your own player's jersey numbers, accessories and primary/secondary positions in Dynasty Mode).

No worries. That's odd though, I've never had to do that to save changes in DB Commander.
