Thank you Austin, but I see there are several versions of the gamedata replacer tool and the DB tool. Which one should I use for Madden08?

RareButter, thank you for your quick response. Unfortunately, I cannot download any of the files on the list of links you sent me. When I try to download the gamedat replacer file, I am redirected to a website File Factory, then told to install and AdBlocker program to my Edge browser. First, I don't like installing foreign programs as a precondition to downloading another file - that's how malware infects your computer. Second, when I tried to install the adblocker extension, it wouldn't install, and I was directed to another web site.

Any chance you could just send me the replacer utility and the DB tool? I am trying to replace my stock playbooks with your custom playbooks so I and some buddies can play game online, using your playbooks.

Thx

Thank you for your response. As an FYI, I have been reviewing the various pages and guides and for me, some are easy to follow and apply and others are not. For example, from what I read regarding all the posts, DR3 is the best gamedata editor to use not DR5. Moreover, when I tried to download DR5 from the link, I received an error message from the web page saying the link for the file was no longer valid or active. Go figure. I do try to solve these problems b/f bugging you and only ask questions when the guides or links don't solve the problem or are no longer active.

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 this spaceship in the dark. Are anyone still out there - and does anyone have an idea of how to make this work for Madden 24 :-)
