Creating PFs and Cs

[carlos]

I have a problem when i create players. I can't create a PF or a C that scores over ppg in sim games. My custom PG, SG or SF do score well, but none of my PFs or Cs reach 15 ppg when I simulate. What can i do to create solid scorers PFs and Cs? Which rating should I raise? Thx.

You could try raising their field goal and inside scoring ratings.

The 3 topl players in inside scoring and field goals are PFs and Cs and they dont score as much as they should. I also raised offensive awareness but for nothing. What did Shaq have to score 30 ppg in the orig rosters?

You could edit the Dstats. Dstats are example statistics for simulated play, so you could just make up desired statistics (or base them on an existing player's 01/02 stats) and edit the Dstats fields in players.dbf. The Dstats begin with DFGATT in the dbf. I recommend using DB Commander 2000 Pro which can download at http://www.dbcommander.com.

I don't like using Dstats because in Franchise it is very unrealistic. If you have a Franchise, and after 7 years, Shaq's overall is 70, he'll still score 25ppg and will grab 10+ rpg. That's not realistic. I want to make PFs and Cs to score many points but just using ratings, without Dstats.
