These are great, thanks so much for doing things! I'm still trying to get things figured out. I'm trying to start in 1976, with a 28_6_16 setup. Looks great, but I want to make some changes, and I'm having trouble. I want to change the Arizona Cardinals to the St. Louis Cardinals. That seems like it should be simple -- I went into default_teams, took a row for St. Louis Cardinals from the 26_6_14 rows, pasted it in place of the 28_6_16 row for Arizona, changed the first couple columns to 28_6_16 and the teamID to 1. But how does the game account for some rows having two TEAMNAME fields? It looks like teams with two names in the city have an extra semicolon between them. You'd think that would throw off the CSV, and it seems to when I change it. I'm also trying to make the standings read as "N.Y. Jets" and "N.Y. Giants" instead of "New York J" and "New York G" but I get errors when I make these changes.

Never mind, I think I figured it out. When I opened the file in OpenOffice, it was counting spaces as delimiters. Opening it in notepad instead got it right, without having to worry about converting. I have St. Louis working properly instead of Arizona now. And in the standings it says N.Y. Jets and N.Y. Giants, but there are times when it calls them N.Y. Jets Jets and N.Y. Giants Giants. That looks pretty dumb, but I hate seeing "New York J" so much that I'm not sure.

As difficult as this exchange was...did anyone figure out how to change division names so they look like "AFC East" and so on? I've changed "AC" and "NC" to "AFC" and "NFC" in two different files, and it's not changing in the game. And I don't see anyplace else I should change it.

I mean, I guess if you made the text super small it's possible that all the characters would fit on that screen. ;)



It has been so long that I have no idea which file(s) I changed to make it work, but mine says "AFC East", "NFC South", etc. on the standings screen, but the league overview screen is just AFC E, NFC S, etc. Five characters is the max on that screen. (Again, at least with my font choice/size. No interest in making it smaller just to see if I can see the full division names on that one screen.)

Well this is weird. I just looked at it again and the division names are in the way they are supposed to be now. I thought they weren't because when you create a game, the screen where you choose your team was still calling it AC East. But then I started playing around with fonts, and now even that screen is named correctly, no matter what font I choose. :confused:

But for the record, the smallest you can make the font is 10, and even then, it still makes it "AFC E" in the league overview.
