Being hosted now on my xbox live gamertag: PandaPhil6969

All credit goes to pinbw! He converted the files from their original PS3 versions, and if you prefer the offline file you can find it here: https://forums.operationsports.com/f...93&postcount=2

If anyone has the free time to do semi-accurate equipment edits a la what I did with Billy Sims, JC Watts, Kellen Winslow Sr. and Joe Montana, please have at it. I'm likely going to get started tonight but it'll be a long slog until I'm satisfied.

Downloaded roster. Looks good. Can't wait to replay the 78 season. Thanks again for doing this.

No problem my dude! I'm pretty excited as well

Just curious? I'm not at all familiar with the editor... can rankings be changed to match the 78 rankings? If I recall there is a 1995 roster out there which had the correct rankings.

Yes it is possible to do and easy with either editor: EA DB editor or NCAA dynasty editor . The 1.36mb file contents can be used with editor. Under Teams Tab we can edit 2 columns labeled tcrk and tmrk --will show the numbered rankings (but to prevent possible game freezes no 2 teams should have the same ranking number; later I found having same number may not matter.).

(Is preseason AP poll ok?)
I can update it as offline. Maybe philshjips can reupload it. I can update the offline file here>>

Ok Done. I replaced the other offline file with AP Preseason Poll version.

Spoiler

They only ranked 20 teams back in the day, and the link showed next 4 teams waiting to get in. I took into account week to week polls to see who entered the poll in later weeks and made them the next 15 or so teams, and just left the remaining teams alone. In game, only top 25 show up. So 21 to 25 ended up like this:
21 Ariz State
22 BYU
23 San Diego St
24 Stanford
25 Maryland

I was working on equipment edits and accidentally saved over the file But I'm more than happy to go back in and update rankings when I start again. Anybody know if you can download a rostershare file from your own username?
