NCAA March Madness 09 News Post

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.

Thanks OS, I do appreciate this!
Well I just check the Canisius with Foxsports and all the info was correct as far as numbers and heights and weights...I'll have to look into race by individual school photos when I do my 2nd version...

As for everyone else....you got 14 more minutes and then I'm not excepting anymore request...

And again delete yourself once you download or I will and block you for good for not following directions...

BehindShadows: Awesome of you to listen to me (much appreciated). The player years are messed up on both of those teams (i mention them because I'm familiar with them) Frank Turner, Eric Williams, Kortekaas, and Cooley.

I believe Williams and Egemonye should be flip-flopped as Egemonye is the starting C and Williams is an unheralded freshman who may redshirt.

Also SF#24 is a huge ??? for me. The Niagara roster is missing one walkon, but he's likely to be the lowest rated guy on the team.

Mind if I help out with the MAAC on a potential version two? Friend ClingSmash if you'd like.

thanks

Yeah we couldn't change the years, but I'll see about repositioning some years when I do the ethic changes and we only have 15 spots per team available..so 1 or 2 players every other school couldn't be added to some teams...again this is Version 1. Me and some of the other OS Kats will adjust more as the weeks go by especially Post Patch when they unblock a lot of teams and do all the classic teams as well...
 
# 807 Clinger @ 11/22/08 03:04 AM
Years can't be altered? Thats crazy stuff. I came in around page 25, so had no idea. But yeah... Egemonye and E. Williams have to switch. E. Williams is also a big pale white dude lol. Demetrius Williamson is accidently named Demetrius Williams too. I'd be willing to help though, I'm not going to sit here and complain without bringing about my own solution haha.

Much appreciated though, again. MAAC fans can friend me at ClingSmash (just let me know in the request who your team is). Others that want the roster can continue friending me for a while tonight, just delete me when you're done!
 
# 808 Zprimetime2 @ 11/22/08 03:11 AM

# 809 AgentAlg @ 11/22/08 03:16 AM
Hey guys, great work. Thanks so much. Could someone who has the file get it to me? My gt is AgentAlgebra. Thanks again.
 
# 810 Clinger @ 11/22/08 03:45 AM
I took the time to update Niagara but didn't add it to the "Final Roster" in my locker. I didn't feel everyone should be subjected to it (I had to swap some players ratings to make it all work). Will there be a workaround for class year in the future?

I've "seeded" the roster to about eight or so people, hopefully they do the same!

Woke up again and looking for the file.

I added shadows - BUT he just got off. If anyone has the file and is awake now, let me know your gamertag. CAJUN COMMISH will send a Friend Request just long enough to grab the roster. Shadow, I will jump off yours as soon as I grab it.

Nice work on the rosters, people.
