Making of the Perfect Franchise and Draft Class

[cursive]

The making of the perfect draft class wouldn’t be possible without all the hard work of the community we have here at OS Sports. To give you guys some background of how we got here, we have to explore here;

dhsmustang was the first to be able to Hex-Edit Madden save files, here he was able to import Madden 13 rosters straight into Madden 12. Next we found Xanathol who was able to use his knowledge of Madden 08 PC modding and help us get an editing program to dump our roster and franchise files in. That thread can be found here;

A couple good threads to get you what you need can be found here;
SWB’s edited roster thread which should be used as your base roster;

Once you start a new franchise you will need to get past the pre-season, once the main season starts save your franchise to usb. You will want to import the 2013 schedule using the editor found in this post;

This is where I will need the communities help, I will be posting a spreadsheet of all players in the draft class and the Madden pictures next to the real player pictures. The goal is to get the most accurate players into the draft class as possible...

Here is a excel file loaded to google docs with all players in the draft sorted by overall, I listed the potential as well.

Let's start with the QB's, please let me know if you know a portriat that works better for the incoming player;

Xan, I love your editor and your thread, but am moving my draft class discussions to this thread.

With that, I've gotten skin colors to take in the draft class using Raw Tables, didn't seem to work or be accurate in appearances tab. Now am working on tones,(not so important) and hair(dreads, more important). Are they tied to face? Also not sure if possible but can Clay Mathews hair be stuck to other white players or black players for politically correctiveness!

Also I know these but can anyone supply the missing one if it exists and also what is the difference between Cyberface and face?

PUHE = Cyberface
PNEC = Face
PGHE = Skin
XXXX= Tone


Thanks

Hair in game is tied to the head, I think. 'Head' is the 'cyberface' value in my appearances tab. If you can describe what PNEC is changing, I can expose that separately. PCPH and PSKI are the traditional skin color / tone fields - if those are having no effect, I'll update the roster to expose the ones you guys are listing.


Re: your draft class roster, Luke Joeckel goes to Texas A&M, not LSU. Not sure if on purpose, but most at LSU believe CB Tharold Simon will go pro after this season. I'll post more if I see anything.

Edit: Carrington Byndom is at Texas, not LSU
Edit2: Manase Foketi is at Kansas State, not LSU

Can I hug you?

Anyone else really wish we had the editor this time last year?

Just by the picture's you've posted, Tyler Bray looks black, and a few running backs are off.
