[Issue with Recruiting]

<p>well...he "might" get around to looking in to it...given it's this old of a game, maybe, maybe not...hell, I'd even send him a few bucks for a patch</p><p> </p><p>

again, it's a great game, one of my top 3 in play time (ootp baseball and DDS College B-Ball). I own and have tried DDS College Football, and it's ok, but it's just not as immersive to me (no rivalries)...but in ways it's deeper too...six of one, half dozen of another</p><p> </p><p>

soooo...I'll keep playing, and using your db...and if no one else says anything about this issue ever again, I will say thanks for your efforts!</p>

[Issue with Recruiting]

I did not get that far ahead, but good to know that it didn't happen again..

 

I do hope you can find something in the dbs or maybe Arlie sees these posts and can offer some insight...until then I guess I keep on keeping on with playing and either not coach out west until after year 5 or if I decide to take on a challenge such as 0 DB/LB/K/P recruits, I can either recruit out of region or recruit the crap out of athletes LOL

 

anyway, I still love the game, really enjoy using your db (thanks again) and will continue to follow this thread closely

it would be kinda neat to have Arlie chime in on this..

 

I still find it hard to believe this game is pushing 15 years old and I still get as much enjoyment out of it as most other games I own

[Issue with Recruiting]

<p>my CAL team (on auto everything) got a few recruits at the missing positions from elsewhere in the country...ok...I can live with that...as did other PAC-12 schools...I can live with that too..</p><p> </p><p>

went in to year 6 and now the West has it's full stock back...people at all positions...again, using the same woolymuffler 2018 db</p><p> </p><p>

forgive the size of the screenshot, but the recruit numbers are legit</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

UPDATE: Simmed a few more seasons, with the 18 DB and still at CAL...no issues with the West or any other regions noted...it would seem, at least for now, that the missing recruit issue may be a one-off thing at season 5....if that is the case and the west based teams are still getting a few recruits from elsewhere, it's not a show-stopper for me, but (A) never tried the default db and (B) would not know what in the modded db's would be causing this...that kind of programming stuff is above my head...</p><p> </p><p>

look forward to seeing what others may find</p><p><a class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image" href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2019_10/BB2020.jpg.e923e5d783dee19ac9d3b5c9cc989643.jpg" data-fileid="3527" data-fileext="jpg" rel=""><img data-fileid="3527" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt="BB2020.jpg.e923e5d783dee19ac9d3b5c9cc989643.jpg" data-src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2019_10/BB2020.jpg.e923e5d783dee19ac9d3b5c9cc989643.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></a></p>

<p>well, we don't know for sure if the OP was using your db or not....I'm gonna assume he was, but hopefully this is something that can be pinpointed with some ease...</p><p> </p><p>

thanks from myself, and on behalf of the OP for your work!</p>

[Issue with Recruiting]

<p>I just got the same issue with your 2018 db, playing at CAL...even under monitor recruits I got 1 CB (2 start) 0 safeties, kickers, or punters...</p><p> </p><p>

not sure where to go from here....</p>

[Issue with Recruiting]

the screenshot you uploaded is from a recruiting overview on the national level. I guess that's how to word it. While I have not gotten to that point in my test sim as of yet, I would like to know if you experienced zero recruits when you are using the "monitor recruits" tab on the right...and if this is just a possible cosmetic issue....

[Issue with Recruiting]

I've never noticed that either, but I am in the process of simming out 5 years with a test save to see if it happens to me...this may take a little while, but I am using Cal as a test team, along with the DB from 2018 that wooley put up (great DB by the way)..

 

I've played for years too, never noticed this issue, but never played out west either...I wonder what DB the OP is using, along with the team he's coaching..

 

will get back to this when I get results

[Bowl Bound College Football live on Steam!]

The pstats.dat file should work with Steam.

 

Can verify this..even though I already own the game, I got the Steam version too..again, like others, I consider this a donation to further development on this great game and a potentially better pro version..

 

Congrats on getting this up on Steam, Arlie and thanks for reviving this favorite game of mine!

[Bowl Bound College Football live on Steam!]

Ditto on the donate!

 

It's worth the 15 to have this great game on Steam and to also put my 1500 cents toward the development of the next pro game

[Player's Guide: What I have Learned]

dude, this is fantastic stuff! The powers that be, around here, should really make this entire thread a "sticky". The whole body of work you've produced here is dusting off my re-interest in the game, thanks!
