Does your file work with Madden 08 or is it a Madden 24 file?

It's corrupted, crashed Madden Editor 1.3 too.

Re: Jack's Stadiums

I wish but idk how to convert tpf files to DAT files and replace some of the stadium files. It's easy, just need to know what original stadium you used as a base. Then all you do is replace the textures using MUER or Stingrays DAT Editor. Yeah, but don't you also need a HEX editor for that? Not if ...

Re: The Playbook Editing help me thread

Are you starting your playbook with merger's blank? Never do that, it just messes things up. Always create your base playbook in game and use merger to import other playbooks into that one. I usually create a playbook with Goal Line, I Form-Normal, Shotgun-Normal etc in Madden. I then import all oth...

It's in the downloads section (6th and 7th from the top). Patch 2.0 doesn't work anymore, not sure if it's needed.

Could we be seeing them converted from TPF to DAT eventually? I wish but idk how to convert tpf files to DAT files and replace some of the stadium files.

Re: how does Roger do it?

Mike, I tried the DB Editor. I'm a novice here and don't know what files I am suppose to load. I tried a roster file ("ros") and received an error message. Could only find a couple of "db" files in the Madden folders and received the same error. It should open .ros files with no...

Re: how does Roger do it?

Mike, as it turns out I have several of the editor programs that I downloaded from the Football Idiot page. One is the NZA Editor, the other 2 are DB Editor also called Madden DB Editor vers 1.3 and 3.0. I seem to recall there being some discussion that the 1.3 version was the better of the 2 optio...

Re: how does Roger do it?

Have no clue what a reddoby formula is. I wouldn't use NZA's editor, you won't finish a roster before a season ends. The best option is to use db editor and export the PLAY table and do all you editing in Excel or Open office Calc. The difficulty Roger and I were talking about is simply copying and ...

Re: how does Roger do it?

The easiest way is to do everything in Excel, it's still time consuming. Madden's website puts all the ratings up, the layout they're using now makes it more difficult to create a spreadsheet. It can be done but be prepared to work on it for a while.

Re: How to add custom playbook as stock playbook

Greatings from the future! So as a newcomer to the Madden experience on PC, this was one of the things I was sure must be possible. Formations subs on a custom playbook. Hallelujah! But ehhh.. I see no Gamedate.dat file anywhere with the current Madden(24) file structure. So I fill stuck alone on t...
