Thank you! Really appreciate you and the other guys chipping in and taking care of us old PS2 fogies. Go bears!

I went through the dataset and confirmed there are no 100 rated players from the M21 ratings data used for this roster. However, when I compare the in-game player ratings, I see several 100 rated players. There is some manual messaging that is needed if you will use this roster set.

Unless I can find updated Madden Ratings in a usable format. This may be the last update for these files. Anyone that is able to update player photos, I would like to understand how to do this. (Please dm me)

Enjoy!

If you worked on these with BAD_AL, then these are the ones to use.

Explain to me the thing about "no 100 rated players from the M21 ratings data"? I don't understand what you mean.
Also, does your franchise file have a 2020-21 schedule, even if not the correct calendar, dates, times, etc and just the right matchups on the right weeks.

BAD_AL's 2K5 rosters are the best because you can play years of franchise with no crashes

I worked with BAD_AL who helped me understand the ratings process with his tool along with a lot of other caveats I was unaware of.

Version 4 is a complete recompile from a M21 ratings export I did on 10.8.2020. See above for a list of all that was done to the files.

Yes, the franchise includes the current schedule.

This is the last roster work I will be doing for this season. I hope everyone enjoys the files!

Honestly, man it's incredible work. So good.
Curious, can you tell me if there is a guide you used to learn to do the hex edits for team names? I noticed you had changed Oakland to Vegas but you left the three letter abbreviation to OAK. Just wondering where I would change that. I'd also like to get rid of "Redskins" even if it leaves a black square for the logo.
