Madden Amp BETA Release Thread

[StingRay68]

I was a bit confused by what you were doing with the coaches but figured it out. I had it checking the team to make sure there wasn't an existing coach. I had it skip free agents, but used the player default which is I think 1023 and for coaches it is 1009. So that will be a problem changing any position when the coach is a free agent/unemployed. Will fix that.

The Belichick thing, 2 possible problems. Approval rating ranges were set in amp from 0-99, is he at 100 in your file? Which I will change.
The other is perhaps his position ratings have been bumped to 100+ with another editor when the game uses 0-99. I could change that as well, but would rather not until someone can verify whether that is going to cause problems down the line.

So what you're saying is that Bill "Today is Friday" Belichick has transcended the limits of Madden Amp?

Moving players in a .ros file triggers the following error message for me:

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

However, it does not seem to actually do much since I can still move them to the PS.

I'm sure there are several bugs in roster management, I haven't spent much time working with rosters and fixing bugs. It's probably something to do with various salary related fields that are in franchise but not rosters.

I'm sorry I never got around to testing the draft pick reading feature you sent me. I can take a look at it tonight or tomorrow and get back to you.

Do you need to take control of all teams when using the draft utility?

Do you need to take control of all teams when using the draft utility?

You need to take control of all teams in-game, set them all to user control for drafting players, and then simulate the draft. Once you're in the rookie signing stage, you can go back to controlling only one team, and do the draft inside Madden Amp.

So, step by step:

1. Take control of all teams in Amp or Nza Editor

2. Simulate the draft in Madden

3. Remove control of all teams except your own

4. Run the draft utility in Madden Amp

Is this correct?
