09/15/07 Release Notes

Only known missing players as of 9/13 are (except for some rookies on IR):
ADD Cedric Killings (HOU)
ADD Bobby Sippio (KC), signed from PS for Kennison's injury
ADD Renaldo Wynn (NO)
ADD Louis Leonard (STL)
Add Russell Davis (NYG), signed for Joseph's injury

Depth charts are all set through localsports.ca w/ suspended, PUP, or major (non IR) injury players at the bottom of the depth chart. IR players as of 9/13 are located in free agency.

All players should have correct face/skin, DOB, ht/wt & PBP etc... so if you find anything wrong there, please tell me as that is not on a to-do list.

There's still a good amount ratings work to be done on some default veterans but mostly on rookies & 2/3 yrs exp players. I'm almost completely finished (thanks to help) w/ a SPD/AGL/STR/JMP chart & then I'll go back & address all those players. I'm done w/ the rookie chart, so roughly half of the rookies have their physical attributes set already according to this. As far as OVR ratings & max/min ranges go however it should be fully playable until I can complete those things.

2 strange things happened after I installed the new editor:
1) As soon as I did some editing in this roster all the teams with two defensive shells lost their 3-4 depth chart adjustment (& didn't even touch "3-4/4-3 switch" playbook swap, etc).
2) some 2007 rookies started showing stats during the preseason of year-2 in franchise... the bug only occurs for that first off-season though.

I have many backup versions of this roster which haven't been opened in the new editor, so it's not a concern but I don't have the old one installed anymore to fix this right now. I haven't swapped any playbooks or base depth charts on this... you should be able to do this no problem but I just didn't want to mess w/ the editor until it's done

Tested through 10 seasons w/o any draft class bugs or freezing of any kind. (e.g. No need to do anything to the draft class). Sorry this took so long but it's a lot of work






EDIT:
new 2nd attachment (puja21Sep15B) includes following changes for those interested (I haven't tested it in franchise... & the new editor features are beta, but feel free to try it out. i cant imagine just switching shell & PB could cause any problems):
--49ers set to 3-4 w/ Ravens playbook
--Browns set to 3-4 w/ Ravens PB
--Cowboys set to 3-4 w/ Chargers PB
--Jets set to 3-4 w/ Patriots PB
--Ravens set to 4-3 w/ 49ers PB
--Texans set to 4-3 w/ Browns PB

I haven't really looked over it in the game yet, just Finn's editor. One thing I noticed was Wilfork's stamina should be higher. He pretty much played every single down last year for the Patriots. But that is something I can always do on my own, not too big a deal.

Good job so far. =)

EDIT: OK... Just loaded them into the game... Couple things on the Pats.

A. Thomas and M. Vrabel need to be switched. Thomas is ILB and Vrable is OLB.
Matt Light is rated too low on his protection ratings(he's one of the better Tackles in the NFL).
I think Bruschi is rated a bit too high, he should be around an 82 IMO, didn't play that well last year.
E. Hobbs needs a speed bump to 95, he is probably the fastest player on the Pats.
Randall Gay's speed should be dropped to about an 88, he doesn't run that fast because of all the ankle injuries he has had.

Those are my observations, looks pretty good over-all though man. Good job!
