BoomerSooner Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I was wondering if one of you guys that loves to mod would give me a hand. What I would like to do is replace Florida International in C-USA with Virginia Commonwealth University. I'm a Ram...it's unlikely we will ever add Football, but I would like to play with them. I can just edit the team but I cannot have the graphics. I can rename the GIF's but then I can't have the name. I don't understand the database well enough to see how things are interconnected. If someone would be willing to tell me exactly what I need to do or if it is all in the pstat file perhaps do it for me I would be very grateful. Please PM or email me if anyone is interested. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboJ Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Edit the pstats.dat file using MS Access. Open the Teams table and find the team you want to edit and make whatever changes you want. The value you put in the Abbr column is the key for the files in the Graphics folder. For example if you use VCU as the abbreviation, then the file in the graphics\Fieldlogo folder must be named vculogo.gif. The file in the graphics\helmets\black folder must be named vcu.gif.... etc. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomerSooner Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Thanks for the reply. I tried editing pstats before I posted. After I made the changes, when I saved the file I received a notice that the file had been updated with the latest version of Access and could not be shared with older files. Overwriting the previous version of pstats was not an option, both files were just sitting in the Bowl Bound directory. I will try again when I have more time to play around with it. I'm a school teacher and rather limited on time during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you just need to change the file extension from .mdb to .dat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teletech Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Then you just need to change the file extension from .mdb to .dat. Forgive my ignorance, but with windows 8.1, how do you do that? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
