How to add Playbooks?

Postby joeyberlin » Wed Aug 10, 2016 11:56 pm

I have been searching and trolling the site but I can not find an answer. I have a number of playbooks in .pbd and .pbo, how do I add them in game? I saw a suggestion about adding a playbooks folder into the madden 08 folder however for me this yields no results. The suggestioner's path was my documents\madden..... My path is C:\program files\EA Sports\Madden NFL 08. But I don't think this should matter.

So, any help, super.

Right here in this subforum:

How to add custom playbook as stock playbook

viewtopic.php?f=15&t=939

The .pbos are in GAMEDATA.dat, I posted the order of the offensive books in that thread. Note the unusual order of Titans, Vikings, and Texans.

This is where the program is installed and you must not modify anything

When you play Madden for the first time it creates this folder, here should be a folder named "Playbooks" where you must put your custom playbooks

So how do I do the opposite so I can open a stock playbook in the alpha editor? I cannot for the life of me figure out how to save stock as .pbd

.pbo = Offensive Playbook
.pbd = Defensive Playbook
