ROGERJINX 2018 NFL SCHEDULE, SALARY CAP, NEW OVR FORMULA (2018 DB_TEMPLATES)

Hi again,

Here is my version of DB_Templates for 2018. This includes:

> 2018-2019 NFL Pre-Season & Regular Season schedule.
> 2018 NFL Salary Cap: 177.2M
> 2018 Minimum salary for FA and based on experience.
> Made compatible with the latest FF/FI MOD

* Copy this and overwrite your DB_Templates in your My Documents/Madden 08 folder and start a new franchise with your favorite roster. FYI, This DB_Templates still houses 2017-2018 roster. My 2018-2019 is still in beta phase.
* If you have an existing franchise and want to use the schedules whether pre-season or regular season, import the appropriate schedule using DB_Editor 3.0.

Feel free to comment any suggestions.

Hey roger, a little suggestion. I've been experimenting a bit with changing the DCSB table to allow for more kinds of subs in the game, so that I can put more kinds of players in more positions, like LBs and D.Ends at Safety and Corner (For realism purposes, this allows to put an Edge Rusher during Quarter sets, allowing these players to serve as stand up rushers in Zone Blitz. And allowing Coverage LBs to line up against slot receivers as well), WRs at Safety and Corner (Is useful in those Hail Mary situations, and teams tend to do this a fair amount of the time. This also allows some Receivers to play Gunner in special teams), more players capable of playing Kicker (I've seen some players other than Punters and QBs filling in as a Kicker. Was watching a little highlight reel of players out of position, saw Wes Welker, Chad Ochocinco and a Dallas Linebacker whose name I can't remember (EDIT: Actually, kit was a Dallas safety kicking, Safety Jeff Heath and a Philadelphia linebacker, Kamu Grugier-Hill), filling in for a kicker. Although considering the Ratings Madden gives to players at some skills, this would most likely fail), as well as lower penalties to Awareness for playing out of position (Considering modern NFL teams tend to do all kinds of whacky stuff with their defensive schemes, I think the penalties for playing out fo position shouldn't too high) as long as it is the same side of the ball they are playing (Receivers suffer a big penalty when set as a corner. Corners get a bit penalty when playing receivers. Running backs aren't as penalized when lined up as a wide out, same as tight ends. Safeties aren't penalized heavily for playing Linebacker). Wonder if you would consider adding this to your DB_Templates file

This is good since the DCSB table really needs updating. I suggest also that you request it from Revanfan to be part of the FF/FI Mod which I believe will undergo to some tests before the inclusion. This template is just the modified version of the latest version of the FF/FI Mod.

Titans and Vikings got swapped. Vikings are the Titans and Titans are the Vikings in the Schedule. It can be changed manually in Madden Editor but, just wanted to let you know first hand.

I updated the 2018 schedule in .csv file for existing franchises. DB_Templates remain untouched since it bears the correct schedule for Titans and Vikings.

Excellent. Yes, I do have existing franchise. Yours from 2017. I have all yours in fact. I like that you give us options to use. Either Or. Thanks for all your hard work. I have had 2008 since it came out. I update it always when you or the boys make something new. Highly Appreciated.
