Arlie Rahn Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Here's the link for patch 1.04: [url]http://72.29.67.246/GDS/BBUpdate.exe[/url] Make sure you have atleast 1.02 before updating.

TazFTW Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Small bug. In week 1 of the regular season when looking at the checklist, it lists 'Check out the award watch list' as the second item. When you click on it, it takes you to the academic probation screen (where you assign hours). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, there's no need to do it in week 1 as you will have a chance in week 2 to set them as well. BUt, it won't hurt to set them in week 1, but the deadline isn't until week 2 for the next grading period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arlie Rahn Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 [QUOTE=Webfoot]Wow the time it takes to sim a week just got cut in half good work![/QUOTE] Depending on your system, it can be between a 40% and 60% improvement on sim speed. It should also help those people still running more "legacy" systems. I ran it on a Windows NT test box I have with 512 MB memory and it cut down the sim time by 70%.

Hallospensa Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Great. Take the fixes immediatly effect or have i to start a new Game/Dynasty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plum Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 you do not need to start a new career/dynasty, although some things will only appear when you get to that point. I.E. recruiting, position strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallospensa Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Ok that means if i'm not start a new Game i will never have a better recruiting system and a better Chance to get a trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plum Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 no it means as you start a new season the new recruiting logic will take affect, the patch does not retroactively fix old issues. As you get to the different stages the logic changes will take affect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJSmitty Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 When I go into my 5th season, for some reason there's no JC's in the recruit list. Now I have 20 and 21 year old freshman but no JC's... This has now happened in both the universes I've ran, does the 1.04 fix this or will I have to start yet another new dynasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plum Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 [B]-Add in jucos for later seasons[/B] continue with your current dynasty and when you goto generate a new recruiting class jucos will appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlie Rahn Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 Recruiting and JC changes will take effect the first team you advance from week 18 in the offseason or start a new career. So, if you are in the camp phase, you will need to wait until the next pool is created (end of next offseason) for the changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
