Editing Rookies..

Fri Jan 02, 2004 2:37 am

Ok we all know that some of the Rookies generated look horrible...
I have this nice rookie Center but he has a huge Fro which makes him taller than he really is and he also has a full out beard...
I just want to change his look to be more normal
but when i went to the players.dbf I can't find the field responsible for the hair and facial hair...
In the players.dbf it has a HAIR field but thats only for special hair like Nash, Spree, B. Grant, etc...
Is there any way to change my rookie's hair?

THanks

Create a player in the normal mode with the hair you want. Save the roster, now go to the .dbf and see what the 5th and 6th letters of his playerpkg or whatever is. Change your drafted centers 5th and 6th letters to these.

It worked like this in live 2003, but I haven't tried it in 2004. Make sure you make a back-up.

I tried what you suggested...
but the Playerpkg field it has nothing on for all generated rookies...
also the playerpkg field for other players it is their name...

I still really want to find a way to edit their looks...
because i can't stand having my franchise center look Richard Simmons...
