Great question! Personally, I think the answer is both. I have the formula memorized at this point as it's the only formula I ever use to generate overall values, but it was so complicated, people liked the "rough estimate" formulas (and I don't blame them). Changing the values is also a pain because you have to extract a database (I think #12) from the DBs.dat file, then edit the PORC table in the the database, then insert it back in, then test it in game. To test one value takes like 5 minutes of work. Quite tedious.

The other weird thing is that you cannot add ratings into the formula. For example, you can't add "Tackling" into the QB formula. It will adjust negatively for it (as in it will always assume the value is 0, and therefore lower the OVR of the QB), but it won't positively add to the OVR (for example, if you set it to 99). Weird.

Anyway, I'll attach the spreadsheet that has the data and the formula (kind of) in it. It's just sheet 1. sheet 2 and 3 are some weird things I was experimenting with back in the day.

Good luck!

Thank you so much! Hopefully someone is going to figure it out at some point. Unfortunately it likely won't be me since I don't think I've got the skills to pull it off. Maybe I'm gonna try someday :)

I have it. If the files aren't fixed in the upcoming days I may post it. Just remind me in about a week if it still doesn't work.

I don't want to upload it without permission, but I will PM him, and if I don't hear from him after a while, I may upload it.

If you're referring to files that are mine, go ahead and upload it. Any files of mine were always treated by me as files for the community.

My only regret is that I never got around to perfecting this utility. It could have been one of my greatest.

Life... Kids... Education... always get in the way... but in a good way! :)

Anyway, hope all are well!

Wayback machine won't work when the attachment itself has been corrupted. I have this file on another computer. When I get a chance, I'll upload it.
