v0.2 has been released!
A REALLY BIG & NEW experimental feature has been added, (roughly) named "Teams". What it does is copy team information (right now just the roster and situationals) from one roster to another. It will find the corresponding players in the destination roster and change the Roster and Situationals IDs accordingly. Any players missing in the destination roster will be copied over to free spots in it, if there are any.
For example, say you want to have Albys 5.1 roster but with the added rookies and trades from the UBR roster:
1a. Open the roster you want to copy from in REditor. Press Ctrl-A in the Players tab to select everything. Press Ctrl-C to copy. Open Notepad or another text-editor, press Ctrl-V to paste. Save.
1b. Switch to the Teams tab. Press Ctrl-A to select everything. Press Ctrl-C to copy. Open Notepad or another text-editor, press Ctrl-V to paste. Save in the same folder as the file in 1a, same name with the addition of "_teams". For example, if the file you saved in 1a was "UBRv20.txt", this file needs to be "UBRv20_teams.txt".
2a. Open the roster you want to copy to in REditor. Press Ctrl-A in the Players tab to select everything. Press Ctrl-C to copy. Open Notepad or another text-editor, press Ctrl-V to paste. Save.
2b. Switch to the Teams tab. Press Ctrl-A to select everything. Press Ctrl-C to copy. Open Notepad or another text-editor, press Ctrl-V to paste. Save in the same folder as the file in 1a, same name with the addition of "_teams". For example, if the file you saved in 1a was "Albys51.txt", this file needs to be "Albys51_teams.txt".
3. Run the tool, selecting the txt file you saved in step 1 in From, and the txt file you saved in step 2 in To.
4a. Select the categories you want to copy over.
4b. Check the Teams option.
4c. (Optional) Select the No FA option to avoid being pestered about updating Free Agents.
5. Press Do It.
6. The tool will inform you of any conflicts you may need to resolve.
7. When the tool says "Done", open the files you saved in Steps 2a & 2b in Notepad (or your favorite text-editor). They should now have the changes the tool did to them.
8. Go to the file from 2a, press Ctrl-A to select everything, press Ctrl-C to copy.
9. Open the roster you opened in Step 2 in REditor again. Select the topmost-leftmost cell in the Players tab. That is the last-name of the player with ID 0.
10. Press Ctrl-V to paste, wait a few seconds. I don't know if there's an indication when the paste is done, but REditor should be unresponsive until it finishes.
11. Go to the file from 2b, press Ctrl-A to select everything, press Ctrl-C to copy.
12. Go to REditor. Switch to the Teams tab. Select the topmost-leftmost cell. That is the name of the team with ID 0.
13. Press Ctrl-V to paste, wait a few seconds. I don't know if there's an indication when the paste is done, but REditor should be unresponsive until it finishes.
14. Save the roster, load it in-game, and enjoy.
If you do this, I recommend choosing Bio (for Years Pro), Appearance (for CF, Portrait IDs, if the source roster replaced them), and Contract (so that you get any changed contracts).
There have been other fixes as well, but this is the big change. Try it out!
v0.2.1 released!
When using the Teams mode, it will also replace TeamIDs in any "Resolve Conflict" window with the proper team names.
