salary.ini for realistic salaries

Thu Nov 20, 2003 2:40 pm

Since i got a roster file from lotto with real salaries but no updated salary.ini i thought I'd just cook up my own. Since its just a text file just copy and paste the below into your salary.ini file in the felogic directory. Comments, critiques and suggestions for improvements are all welcome! So happy that we can play around with rookie salaries as well this year.

Thats a horrible ini file no offense, most of the key guys are 60-69 and youve got them making 2 mill

Thu Nov 20, 2003 3:18 pm

There is a salary.ini file with my rosters, you sure you got the real deal?

Thu Nov 20, 2003 4:03 pm

Lotto: I put my e-mail on your list and got a zip file from "Kojak". Inside was just the 000 folder to put in my saves directory. And i checked inside too; no salary.ini file in there.

joemimic: I don't think you understand how the salary.ini file works. It's based on precentiles, not player ratings. When my file has something like 65-69percentile=2500000, it doesn't mean that players rated 65-69 make 2,500,000. I means that, when you list all of the players at a certain position in order or rating, the players about 1/3 down from the top will make 2,500,000. So a player doesn't have to have a rating of 98 or better to make the top salary, he just has to be better rated than 98% of the players at his position. If for some magical reason 15 years into a franchise the best center in the game is rated 73, he'll still ask for 15,000,000.

I've been trying this out and most of the guys with ratings in the 60's are asking for 4-6 million. I think this about right for guys who could be anywhere from a team's 2nd best player to 7th or 8th on the depth chart.

I must have sent you the wrong one. What is your e-mail again? or you can download the one off this site in the downloads section.
