Dynasty Mode Questions ^^

[Andrew]

No, unfortunately not.

[Alpha_]

okay tnx uhmm another question.. can I change the starting year (2007) in dynasty into 2010...

[Andrew]

Nope. Best you can do is edit the player's birth years so they're older at the start of Dynasty Mode. That's what I've done with the Age Fixes.

[Alpha_]

ouch too bad.. anyway tnx Andrew..

[Jhiane]

what's the purpose of the age fix? To make it younger or to make it older? After that 25 year surely the star players from now will vanished

[Andrew]

To make them older, so that their real ages are reflected at the beginning of a new Dynasty. Otherwise, you've got fifteen and sixteen year old rookies.

[Jhiane]

aw.. can you make a roster patch that makes them 10-15 years younger? Just for dynasty mode.. I believe that changing the birthdate of players is the one way to change.. Does it crash when i changed?

[Andrew]

I believe I've already answered that question earlier in the thread.

[Jhiane]

oh.. maybe i had mislook it.. so if i reduced their age to 15-20 years old, maybe there's no player will retire? right?

[Andrew]

If you keep resetting everyone's age to 20 you should be able to keep them in the league. The game doesn't usually select players for retirement before the age of 32 (and usually they're older than that, the odd player in their early 30s will retire in the game though).

[Jhiane]

yah.. the older, the nearly they retire.. I will try editting

Hello gyus...I have make everything good so far in installation also the updated pack. But in dynasty mode i start from 2007-2008 season..also the default rosters ...i installed correct the tup10 roster and load them in game....but in dynasty it starts with default...help please...

[Andrew]

To start a Dynasty with a custom roster, make sure you select No for the 2007 Draft option.

There's no way to edit the default starting year in Dynasty Mode, so that's an inaccuracy we just have to put up with when we're using updated rosters in subsequent years after the game's release.

Hey Andrew, I have a problem playing dynasty.. The all-star court is different from playnow mode.. Here it is:
RVS at playnow mode:


RVS at dynasty mode:


Dunk contest at playnow:


Dunk Contest at dynasty:


All-star game at playnow:


All-star game at dynasty:


On my 1st allstar game(07-08 season) it doesn't happen.. Its happens at a 2nd season of the dynasty (2008-2009 season) Is this an error? Or it happens naturally?

[Andrew]

There are a few different files for the All-Star Weekend courts which all have their own file names and abbreviations in the databases; I'm pretty sure that Play Now utilises one set and Dynasty Mode uses the other. Obviously you've got two different versions of the 2010 All-Star court installed (the Play Now files differing from the updated Dynasty Mode courts) which would be why you're seeing a difference.

[Jhiane]

maybe i can rename the playnow's to convert it to dynasty mode?

[Andrew]

Yes, that would do the trick.

[Jhiane]

but i dont know what the name of the file..

[Andrew]

The All-Star court files use the abbreviations alls, asne, asnw, al3p, aldy, dunk, dk3p, and dkdy. If I recall correctly, alls, asne, asnw and aldy would be the All-Star court for five-on-five gameplay (ie the All-Star Game and Rookie Challenge). If they're all the same, they'll be the same for Play Now and Dynasty. The rest are the dunk and three point courts; again if they're all the same, the same court will be used in all modes.

[Jhiane]

how to create a team? Is it possible to join in dynasty?

[KidJustin]

only if u replace an NBA team, dynasty runs MAX 30 teams

[Jhiane]

So i will edit the name of the team?

[Andrew]

And any other details as necessary, yes.

[Jhiane]

What is the cause of player's speech id changing in dynasty mode? Just like Andrew Bogut and Drew Gooden swaps their speech..

[Andrew]

Sounds like a bug to me, plain and simple.
