DISCOVERY OF NEW PROBLEM WITH ANY TWEAKED ROSTERS

Fri Jan 03, 2003 2:13 pm

All you people out there that own a tweaked roster or have changed the roster yourself, there is a problem with them.
If you download the tweaked roster and play the Franchise Mode, for the first year it will be fine. But for the next year the ratings of the Rookie will be better and higher then some NBA players.
For Example:
I used DK'S Roster and Kobe Bryant's inside scoring is 56 or someting like that.
But when I drafted Rookies, many of them had 70 and more. Only some had 55, but after a year that increased.

I believe that these rosters are only good for playing but for Franchise they are bad.

Could anybody out there maybe fix the problem?

this is not a newly discovered problem =p the way to fix it is:

1 save your franchinse right b4 the year ends
2 open it with a dbf editor and un-tweak everything
3 go on the the next season (draft rookies, FAs, etc)
4 save ur franchise at the beginning of the season
5 open it again with a dbf editor and tweak it back
6 play your next season
7 repeat all of these steps every season

kind of a pain in the ass but it works.

nah... all i do is simply change the rookies I draft. and also maybe the top couple rookies. but even w/o editing like the #1 rookie this year, he isn't getting all that impressive #s (except for dropping 24 on me.. lol)

I dunno, I've got tweaked rosters too and tried to play franchise. But I can't un-tweak DK's rosters. I can't untweak FG rating, steals and some other stuff. Don't know why. So the method doesn't really work that well for some.
