That would be because there is nothing to tell us yet, i.e. he has not set a date yet.

Hola Andrew!
A little detailed, but you could take away James Posey's or any other Heat players headband. They cannot wear one, it's team policy.

Also, in HOU Derek Anderson is #1 in the game, you should change it to #8.

[Andrew]

No worries.

Sorry to delay things so long everyone, but I've just been so worn out lately. But rest assured, I'm doing my best to fight through working-day fatigue and with a couple of evenings this week, should be able to get v1.00 done just in time for the new season. I'll try to add a few extras to make the wait worthwhile.

[Pirate]

I appreciate the work Andrew. The demands between working and real life compared to modding time can be skewed by those who prefer not to juggle it.
I have learned modding patience because it takes so long to make a stadium for MVP Baseball, and the request I get can be overwhellming.

I will start my dynasty with your work as is every year, since 98 and Tim's rosters. You do great work.

[Andrew]

Thanks Pirate, I appreciate the kind words.

Just a quick progress report - more players created tonight, the ones I have left to do either:

a) May replace players I've already created once the rosters are cut back for opening night
b) Will likely pop up during the season as free agent signings

Most of the missing player creation is done, so over the next couple of nights I'll hopefully do the missing legends, some ratings fixes, check bio data, jersey numbers etc then bug test and hopefully get an update out this weekend...just in time for the new season.

I hate to delay it so long especially when I was able to get the game so early, but I just haven't had the time as of late.

[The X]

cool, if you could do a dynasty bug test then that would be great

looking forward to it

and maybe someone can answer this, is Jamison Brewer a lefty or a righty? in EA's default rosters they have him as a righty but I thought he was a lefty....can anyone enlighten me on this and if he is a lefty then can you adjust it Andrew also Salim Stoudamire is a lefty as well, but I believe you already knew that

[Andrew]

Not sure if I've made Salim a lefty, but it's easily fixed. Actually did some Dynasty bug testing tonight, (basically to avoid creating a whole bunch of players only to find the dbf file is completely messed up and unuseable) and didn't encounter any problems...which was encouraging and quite a relief.

[Jugs]

Oh God, I dont even know my favourite player's hand

[maderic9]

gotta also trade desmond mason for jamaal magloire.. that deal just went down!

[nbalive744]

That is not a must because you can very easily trade the players yourself, especially a simple trade like that.

[Fresh8]

But since it's an update I'm sure Andrew will include it

[maderic9]

andrew, not sure how much you'll be adjusting ratings based on pre-season, but you may want to check out charlie villanueva's FG and 3PT ratings.. he's been firing them in from all over the court this preseason (including 4-4 3 PTs last night)... that and his ball handling skills (he handles it like a guard) are significantly higher than most people give him credit for... just something to think about

[R.J.]

Make him like 55-60 at most.

[Svensanity]

Ah man.. can't wait for Andrew to release his roster patch

[Air Jordon]

:oops:
Ah man.. can't wait for Andrew to release his roster patch

yeah its like holding a big fat turd in.

[2xEv_Dang]

I can support NLSC beta Roster and beta Slider tester
ex. beta NLSC Roster bug Check and Fix

PS. thanks so much ^^

[Mark.]

Hey Andrew, im not sure if this has already been asked, but will you be updating the teams offensive sets like Playmaker has discussed in his thread?

[Villalona]

Hey drew, could you please fix nate robinson in the patch?

EA made him too fat in the game and he is actually darker skin tone. Also his jumping ability is too low, i would say he should have 90 to 99 range. He has the highest verticle in the NBA at 43 inches and he will probably be in the slam dunk competition.

If you havent seen him play and need some proof here is a nice video showing his jumping abilities http://rapidshare.de/files/3534445/Nate_Robinson_Mix_Made_by_Natesbury126__.wmv.html

Hopefully you can fix his appearance which is the thing that bugs me the most.

Also to note Knick players use orange headbands not blue.

[Andrew]

Update: roster coming really soon. I could have probably released it tonight but it's still a bit rough around the edges so I'm going to save myself the emails and delay it another day or so to fix a couple more things. So it truly will be an opening night update.
