Pre-Draft Madden08Next In-Game Edited Rosters

[jblackstone]

Excited to share this. It is a roster that I edited to include all major free agency changes from this year pre-draft. All changes were made in an effort to not break franchise mode, and early tests show that at least for a season it works as expected. So no need for a separate franchise file. I plan to do more with this post-draft and I'm going to dig into maybe trying to modify the franchise coach in game files for playbooks, change some music etc and i'll post accordingly here, but for now this is what I have. Again, this is for Madden08Next (https://github.com/antdroidx/madden08next) so if you attempt to use this with basic Madden08 I believe Play Now will work but franchise will lock up on you. As the season gets closer i'll add updates and maybe do a roster/franchise file (not in game edits since it would take too long) for Madden12. Enjoy.

Thanks for this. I can confirm this is working with Madden-Next on original hardware. I was able to sim and draft into the next season. Hopefully you will have a an after draft roster ready soon!

Hey glad u liked it, I thought it was a waste of time haha. Sorry, forgot about this forum lol. Yes, I completed one that is post-draft, made a lot of changes, have not gotten to fixing all numbers or anything like that bc I want to do a final version after Madden25 ratings are released. PS I'm not saying you have to be part of this, but this is where I release stuff once it's done first.

Anyway, here's my last version until preseason:

Thanks for this update! Cant wait for preseason to start! This roster works on original hardware running Madden08-Next on OPL HDD.

Is this going to be for the PS2?

Can't wait to try this, but I'm not sure what to do with .max files. This is for PS2 emulator right?

Can't wait to try this but forgive the stupid question, I don't know what to do with .max files, I'm guessing it has to be recompiled into my iso file somehow.

Apologies for the delay.max files you import via MyMc to your memory card. Full instructions in Discord.
