[Tool] Roster Workshop

Roster Workshop
by Lefteris "Leftos" Aslanoglou

Just so you guys know, I've started and done a lot of work on what's going to be this year's version of Roster Merge & Repair, which is going to be called Roster Workshop.

Roster Workshop will work with REDitor (no support for Roster Editor is planned for now) and allow you to combine 2 or more rosters, as well as do automated repairs in your rosters. It's a complete rewrite of the code rather than an upgrade, so it does things much better and faster, as well as allowing me to easily do a lot more things that what Roster Merge & Repair could.

REDitor's release shouldn't be too far now, and I will have tools ready for it day 1.

===============================================================
UPDATE (June 18, 2013): I decided to go ahead and release a compiled version. Mind you, it's VERY untested, and it could ruin your rosters if you don't make backups. I just wanted to give you guys something to play with, and if I have the time, I'll try to offer some support.
===============================================================

Here's a screenshot to wet your appetite:

Binary 7z: Roster Workshop
Source Code: https://github.com/leftos/roster-workshop

You'll need the .NET Framework 4.5 to run this tool. You can get it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download ... x?id=30653


To learn more about last year's Roster Merge & Repair (compatible with REDitor II), click here.

If any of you have any ideas, features they'd like to see, roster editing automations or repairs, let me know and I'll do my best to incorporate them.

How the app relate players from different rosters?

Based on a variety of factors. First it matches them by name, and gives you all the available matching players. You can then set it to only bother you if all matching players are in other teams, to only bother you about current versions of players if the player to be replaced is in one of the current 30 teams, and to prefer unhidden players over hidden, which automates the process a lot.

Using all the above 3 options I only get pestered 3-4 times each time I merge 2 rosters about manually resolving a conflict, and even then it's something like this:

What about some 'premium' things like Coach profiles and Jerseys?

Staff is merged and missing staff is copied over if you do Teams, so Coach Profiles are in there because of that.

Jerseys are on my ToDo list, although it's not going to be so much merging as much as it's going to be replacing.

If you mean "premium" as in requiring a REDitor license to be edited/saved, Roster Merge won't help you circumvent that, as it only edits the REDitor-exported CSVs. You still have to import those CSVs back into REDitor and save what you're able to save based on your license. So for the full Roster Merge experience, you also need a REDitor license.

This... looks... awesome...

It appears to be yes based on last year's thread, but I still want to ask, will I be able to take shoe values from one roster and merge it into another with it?

Yup.

Just so everyone knows, I had completed an initial version of the tool earlier about 2 months ago, but never got around to testing it with the final version of REDitor and releasing it. So, if anyone's interested, the source code is up at https://github.com/leftos/roster-workshop. Anyone can compile the project, test it out, release it, do with it whatever they like, as long as I'm given proper credit (license and all).

As I've announced, with my upcoming position at 2K Sports, I won't be working on NBA 2K-specific tools anymore, but all my work, all my tools are open-source and on quite unrestrictive licenses, so you can continue my work freely. Just because I won't be working on them doesn't mean they won't get released or that work won't continue. It only takes someone interested to take them up.

I decided to go ahead and release a compiled version. Mind you, it's VERY untested, and it could ruin your rosters if you don't make backups. I just wanted to give you guys something to play with, and if I have the time, I'll try to offer some support.

Good stuff.

v0.1.0.1 released!

- Fix: Fixed crash due to the different data provided by the final version of REDitor MC

I can't for the life of me get this to work -_- I followed the instructions on last year's Merge and Repair thread exactly, and no changes take place upon importing the .csv? Just to be sure, the "base" roster is the one you're copying from, and the "merge with" is the one you're copying to?

Nope, other way around. You're copying from one or more rosters in "Merge With" to "Base Roster". I should've made that clearer.

Ahh... Lol good stuff, thanks

Sir Leftos i encounter this error when i press the merge button.

Can you pass the CSVs you're trying to merge? As you can see, the tool is crying foul about their contents, so I'd like to take a look.

P.S. Use [code] tags instead of [quote] tags when posting errors.

Sir Leftos i attach the Roster file including .csv file that I exported from RED MC free version.
Thanks. and by the way sir, i hope you receive my PM and I'm hoping for your consideration. :pray:

Sir Leftos need help.. what to do?

ayarauuf, hotjabur, download v0.1.0.4 and see if you get the same error. I think I've fixed it.

Sir leftos, i think you fixed the error from the previous version but i have this message after using the new version.

No inner exception information.

ayarauuf, I'll look into it.

hotjabur, can you please upload your CSVs and tell me exactly what I need to select to make that happen?

this one
http://www.mediafire.com/download/1oc35 ... ea/CSVs.7z

ayarauuf, actually, you selected "Team Rosters: Current", but then didn't select which roster to copy Team Information from. So with the roster you want to merge from selected, scroll down the list, go to Teams, check the box next to Rosters. "Team Rosters: Current" isn't enough, because it just tells the tool that you'll select the "Team -> Rosters" merge option in one roster and that it should only try to merge the current teams. Unless you specifically set "Team -> Rosters" in one roster, the tool won't know which roster to copy from.

hotjabur, yeah, but what did you select in the Main Window to make that happen? I need the exact steps to reproduce the bug so I can fix it.

try to replace, nothing happens, try to skip this error pops up.. what should I select on main window?
