(Solved)Dynasty Mode:Players Appearance bugged

Wed Mar 21, 2012 12:31 pm

Hello, I have just stumbled upon something terrible in my dynasty mode.

I had just completed a season, and playoffs resulting in a championship. Went into the off-season, did the usual things you're supposed to do.

So, I start the next season, go in game and all of my players height and weight are all . . changed. My center went from 7'0" 281 lbs to 6'6" 225 lbs and my guard went from 5'11" 210 lbs to 6'9"255 lbs.

I guess you can say, my team went under a transformation for the worst . . I even looked into the .DBFs and found that their appearance values were what they were supposed to be. But they were completely different in game.

Example of this is: MY center's values in the DBF are HEIGHT; 84 WEIGHT; 281

But in game it's not even like that . . I haven't edited any of the dbf's from this dynasty. Any helpful comments regarding a possible fix would be great, I had just put together a great team . . :bowdown2:

This is the correct action to be taken.

Errr . . it didn't work. It's as if nothing has changed . . Should I click on each player individually, then click back or done?

Or simply visit the EDIT player menu, and then go back in save?

Thank you for your replies.

First,what roster are you using?
Second,you need to click on that individual player and then click on "Done" then save the roster to see if works.

I'm using the original roster, but now I'm in year 2024. Never had a problem until now. Thank you for your replies!

Okay, I did what you suggested. Every player was affected, so I clicked done on every player in my roster in edit player, saved. But nothing had changed . .

I really do appreciate all replies to this thread though.

If this helps . . http://youtu.be/1ipx4iVlLJ0 A very brief video, of what I did.

PS: I did not play through all of those years, sometimes I just decided to sim seasons, to get rid of original players quicker. It's not realistic to see Brandon Jennings with a 93 overall, on the rockets averaging 30+ a game at 37 years old . .

i think your appearance.dbf is messed up.. just look at the skin color of the arms and legs of your players, they dont match with the skin color of the head.

I noticed that . . Thanks anyway.

I may just load a save from 2 seasons back and see if something happens when I reach that point in time again.

EDIT: Ok, it seems the entire league's players may have been affected, however I cannot go to edit players that are not in my team.

Forget it, I loaded a season prior to this one and it works fine now. Must've been something with that specific save that was messed up. I am in the following season with no problems.
