Good day,
is anybody else sick of all the undersized rookies in this game? How about we try to solve the problem ourselves? Today, after going through the draft with all the 6'1 SGs and all what not, I decided to take things into my own hands. Unfortunately, I'm not nearly versed enough with batch files and cdbflite, so I'll need all the help I can get.
To solve the problem, using a batch file, we somehow have to:
1) select all the upcoming rookies: player ID = 39
2) Check if player is SG or SF: Position = 3 or 2
3) Save his Player ID in a .txt file
4) Open appearance.dbf and use saved player IDs in .txt file as if they were appearance IDs
5) Check if player is smaller than, say, 6'5. If so, set his height to 6'5
6) repeat steps 2-5 for for different positions i.e PF and C and set appropriate heights.
I've gotten my batch file to perform steps 1-3 and I have another that can do steps 5 and 6. The difficulty I'm facing right now is to perform step 4. I'm not familiar with using batch files and don't know the necessary commands, but how can I get a batch file to read the heights that have been saved in the .txt file in step 3 and equate them to appearance ID?
