cody8200 Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 You can rename and modify all data about schools already in the game. I think there has to be the same amount of total schools in the game. I'm not positive, but 90 percent sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Kaputnik Posted December 11, 2005 Author Share Posted December 11, 2005 What about keeping all the current teams and adding one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappy Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 [QUOTE=Roger Kaputnik]What about keeping all the current teams and adding one?[/QUOTE] Roger, it can be done by editing the pstats.dat file with MS Access or OpenOffice Base. Simply add one to the bottom of the "teams" table. You may want to browse around the 'cities' db first, to find the proper city number. Also, make sure whatever conference you add the team(s) to ends up with either 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 teams. Otherwise, the scheduler won't work.

GIGGAS2 Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 How do you open the database in OOBase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappy Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 1 - Right click on the pstats.dat file and rename it pstats.mdb (you may need to edit your folder options first if it won't let you change the extension). 2 - Open OO base 3 - Select "Connect to an existing database" 4 - Select "Microsoft Access" in the drop-down box 5 - Find your pstats.mdb file The rest should be self-explanatory. Once you've opened it, "tables" will show you all the tables. Don't forget to re-name your pstats.mdb file pstats.dat before re-opening Bowl Bound.

I thought I heard that 4 and 7 would work? Also, 12 needed to have 2 divisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappy Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I haven't tried either of those. It would make sense that 4 would work, as there are 4 independents. But I don't know of any current 7-team conferences, and I thought you had to have conferences with sizes equal to a current one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But go ahead and try, there's no better way to find things out then by using trial and error... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
