Create players problem

Postby racic on Thu Jan 22, 2009 11:57 pm

I've created 64 players for somekind of my own retro patch and i can't create any more. Is there some way to increase number of players that i can create?

I can send you my rosters but it doesn't matter because i've tried it on other rosters and it's the same. Try it on yours, you'll see

I am bumping this up, I dont know if it is for only post patch or what but I just created 109 created players and decided to stop.

The limit at least for me was not 64

towards the end of the players data in the roster files is a alot of very similar groupings which i was thinking were placeholders of sorts, if i get ambitious one day maybe i will count see if i come up with that number. the roster file is a set size and length all data atm needs to fit into that size file.

if there is a workaround you would need to "fix" the game so a larger roster file could be loaded and on top of it expand the placeholder areas in the file for the stats, teams, names and whatever other data is hidden within. but would be very tricky since each line is specific if a line gets shifted at all it messes up the files from the minor to the extreme. probably is some values in the game that look to regions a to b and c to d in the roster files in the game for specific info and byte alignment. but i am a noob with the hex stuff take someone with a bigger brain than me to crack it.

Well every player I did was called FIRST LAST, and pretty much it was "hold down till it scroll to create a new player" "press start" "down, yes" "no" "scroll down...."

I only used hex to find out how many players I had created, which I then cross referenced with manually counting in the roster editor.
