NCAA March Madness 09 News Post

NCAA Basketball 09 Xbox 360 Community Roster Project

02:07 PM - November 18, 2008 by TJdaSportsGuy

Hi folks,

I saw that BehindShadows is planning on releasing a roster set as soon as he can finish up. Problem with that is he's going to be editing players attributes, looks, etc, as he goes along.

I've always been of the mindset that I prefer to use the rosters the way they came with the game. When you start editing attributes, inevitably, you're going to have a bias towards one team or another and the file won't come out the way it should.

We'll pass the roster file around using the EA Locker. It's important to note that under no circumstances should anything other than a player's name, his height/weight, race, or jersey number be edited. LEAVE THE ATTRIBUTES ALONE!

So...with that said, we need volunteers. Below is a list of all the conferences, along with whether or not they've been done, and by whom they've been edited. Rather than using their OS names, I'm using their gamertags instead so it'll be easier to get the file from, in the EA Locker.

Naw, they just have his eligibility wrong, Hummel's on target, def the right player. LewJack and none of the freshmen are in the game, it needs to be fixed for sure

# 764 mattpu01 @ 11/21/08 11:53 PM

Where are we at Terps? I assume you got Socon still and someone doing MVC or Colonial now?

I noticed alot of players having the wrong class, but not alot you can do to fix that unless you could add a player (Hummel) and give him identical ratings as the frosh Hummel then make the original #4 LewJAck.

I will tinker with Purdue's roster once I get the final file then I can put it in my locker for other Purdue fans or Big Ten guys.

Ditto. My gamertag is jabdadoftwo so if someone with the rosters could shoot me a friend request so I could get them, I would be a very happy man. I haven't even cracked the seal on the game yet due to the rosters being out of whack.

Thanks again!

I noticed something that could help with roster distribution, and save on the FRIEND INVITE SPAM that theguys editing the rosters are getting right about now.

If you play a game (or have played) with someone they will appear on your recently played list...you can browse their EA locker, and get files from there without being on their friend's list.

Could be helpful for future revisions of the rosters post Dec. 4th patch.

# 767 mattpu01 @ 11/21/08 11:55 PM

I know Butler had a lot of wrong class players too!

Thats dumb you can't change class.

# 768 Zprimetime2 @ 11/21/08 11:55 PM

aight just got the file from shadows looks good, im starting on the socon and ill be done in about an hour!

# 769 CWSapp757 @ 11/21/08 11:56 PM

BTW, just making sure of something: Im not sure if it was Terps or shadows but I believe one of you stated that a thread would be created so that we can share Gamertags and retrieve the rosters? Can one of you confirm this?

Yes everyone please chill...the final file will be available once its done! I know when I was working on a roster today I had probably 20 friend requests. It slows the process. Just be patient and there will be enough of us to distribute the file!

Thank you so much for doing all of this. It is greatly appreciated. I am truly thankful for people like you in this world.

My gamertag is Primetime50g. Somebody please add me to their friends once this is done or tell me who to add. Thanks

# 772 qmoney55 @ 11/22/08 12:04 AM

# 773 pdub111 @ 11/22/08 12:04 AM

I also saw under the EA locker option on XBL there is a Media Center that actually has roster files in there... Is it an option to put the file in there or no?

Yes it is, but there are currently issues with the profanity filter that won't allow the file in its current state to be uploaded into the common share.

LOL, dude, do yourself a favor and READ THIS THREAD. We CAN'T put the file up so that just anyone can download it because somehow, it's tripping the game's profanity filter and it won't allow the file to be posted in that manner.

I want to give a special thanks to all the Vets of Operation Sports for making this all possible. For taking the time to do the research to share these rosters that they worked so hard on to perfect these past couple of days. You guys show that with great effort these rosters can be knocked out in no time. You guys also are preparing us rooks for the future of roster sharing, that way all you guys have to do is monitor our work. Once more thank you Vets, your work is greatly appreciated.

# 778 tj_609 @ 11/22/08 12:34 AM

do you have to have a gold membership to get the rosters?

I think someone said earlier you did not have to have Gold. Not sure as that is what I have always had.

# 780 ckykmk08 @ 11/22/08 12:44 AM

Thank you vets for your hard work. If you could please send me a copy of the final product that would be amazing. My gamertag is CKYKMK088 Thankyou and God Speed!!
