Our goal is to provide authentic appearance, accurate stats, AND authentic gameplay. We would not get close to this goal without the help of the following:

VladZola jr. and Hokupguy for creating REDitor and giving ongoing modding advice.
PortlandBlazer for many of the CAP faces used.
Slimm44 for his philosophy on de cluttering the overuse of dribble moves and shot animations.
vtcrb for providing clarity on tendencies.
VannWolfhawk for his essential playbook changes. (His work saved 2k12 in my mind)
THANK YOU!

-also...OVERALL MEANS NOTHING...so don't let that bother you. The players and teams play right regardless.

Important points about the schedule: For some reason teams that play no games (0-0) are considered .500 teams and we ran into an issue where at least 4 teams were making the playoffs that shouldn't have. (i.e Heat, Grizzlies, etc) The only fix we could figure out was by giving those teams some games to play so they would lose and therefore drop down in the standings. When simming seasons we are ending up with 1 or 2 of these "non"teams making it. Just consider the teams playing them in the first round getting a bye..lol. We are still brainstorming a fix for this and are open to suggestions.

Just a few words about our background.. Back in our middle school days we used to play an NBA stat engine game for the Commodore 64 cleverly called "NBA" by Avalon Hill. The inspiration for our Class of 90 super roster was this game as it had 20 great teams. Shortly after I bought the "1987 season disk". Needless to say, we are more familiar with this season than any other.

The 1986-87 NBA season is arguably the best season of the 80’s, and maybe even in NBA history. You still have old school guys such as Erving, Jabbar, Moses, and Gilmore. You have Magic, Bird, Dominique, and Isiah in their prime. You have a high scoring Jordan (37 ppg), young Barkley, Olajuwon, Ewing, and Karl Malone. There were many classic playoff moments from that season as well. Dominique vs. Isiah…”The Sleepy Floyd game”….”Bird Steals the Ball”….and the iconic Lakers vs Celtics NBA Finals matchup. We hope guys enjoy this roster as much as we are!

This sounds good. Will be looking forward to checking it out.

The only issue with Association mode might be the schedule? When the schedule for the second season is generated, won't it include all teams?

Good point and this would need to be tested I guess. I bet the generation of the schedule would default to original. Unless its run off the schedule base.

Also one thing you may want to test is if guys will resign, for some reason on my roster I made, every player would test FA, not one would consider looking at a contract which ruined the roster for me.

That's because you probably didn't edit the loyalty in reditor

Just did a prelim test on this with a 14 game association where the Bobcats were left out. The good news is that the schedule DOES NOT reset for the next season. Bad news is that the schedule shifts and another team (The Wizards) were left out the following season. So..this will likely mean that the edited schedule will only be valid for one season....unless a workaround is figured out.

Hmmmmm. That is good news with quite the perplexing caveat. Short of going in and switching IDs, I'm at a loss at the moment. Did you sim the first season multiple times without the Bobcats and then have the Wizards always missing in the next season schedule?
