To properly update to the mod:

1. Update the game (if you can) to version 4.0.
2. Install the FF/FI XV 2.0 Full Version.
3. Install Hotfix #1.
4. Install Hotfix #2.
5. Install the final roster.

The issue Victor Raider is having brings up a legitimate concern for future versions of the mod. Each year the FF team releases a new version of their mod for the new football season. That means each year I would have to fine tune my mod to make it compatible with new version. I dont see that happening. More likely, I will release a standalone version of the GHT mod that does not require separate downloads.

I might do this as early as the next release. Im not sure when that will be. I've been adding and correcting things here and there (and so has mee), but its been a fun and busy summer so far with things unrelated to madden.

If you need to use anything from our mod for your standalone, you have permission to use it.

That was an important question I was going to have to ask....thank you very much, and I will make it clear in the documentation that my mod was originally built from the FF mod. Thanks again!

My current focus on mod improvement is field art (end zones, mid field logos). I've created a word document that shows images of each team's field art. Note that some of the end zones you see here are not in version 1.0. They have been created and will be released in the next version.
Most areas that still need fixed or improved are addressed in the document. The ultimate goal is historical accuracy, however, there are some cases where I have used mid field logos that weren't actually used in a particular season. This was done to add a bit of variety. At some point I may switch to 100 percent historical accuracy...that is my preference, but I'd be curious what people think about mixing accuracy with variety.

The San Francisco 49ers still require a bit of work...they are the weakest link right now. Please let me know if you have suggestions or information on any team's historical field art...the more the better.

Here is the link the document...it is 77 megabytes and chock full of images...

Since I last posted on the status of end zones about a week ago, I've made many improvements. Though they still do not perfectly match history (a feat which may be nearly impossible), I am satisfied with them for the moment. You can view the list of changes made from version 1.0 here:

I really only have one more thing I want to do prior to the next release, which I will be calling the 1.5 release. I need to correct the jersey numbers for the old school leatherhead teams. That really won't take long at all, and once completed I will release the stand-alone version 1.5. Yes, there will still be outstanding issues with portraits, but I won't be fixing that until the 2.0 release in the future. After doing somewhere around 5,000-6,000 portraits, I'm still too burned out on them to address.

***Edit: I've completed the jersey number corrections for the old school teams, and now I'm customizing the GHT load screens. 1.5 release coming very soon.***
