Hi all,
Football season is coming up, and I thought I'd like to have all of the NFL teams on Playmaker. I know my favorite teams well enough to make the skill levels of each player pretty accurate, but if anyone would like to do their own favorites I'd be happy to let them. The whole league could then be made available for downloading.
So far I've done the AFC North and to my surprise it doesn't take too long. You can copy the roster from http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/teams since it's similar to what the Team Converter application reads (http://www.pmfb.net/download/TeamConvert.sit.hqx).
My team files look like this
number pos name speed strength agility intelligence discipline

That's copied directly from an excel file, and team converter creates a team out of it no problem.

Well, never mind. I've found an easier way to achieve it- using the Madden 08 ratings that were recently published on the net. I figure EA must be capable of slightly more research than I am so I hope the results will be more realistic. I just need to adapt the skills to fit PMFB and then I'll upload them for whoever is interested.
Ok, it's done. The files are for the Windows version but I think you can convert them to Mactintosh format without too much trouble.
