[rogerjinx]

Sorry for those first 85 who downloaded the .fra file. I updated the Injury table to reflect the real players who are supposed to be injured. You can download the updated file in the first post.

Your Franchise saves me so much time, get's me going every year!!! I just have too use my settings and sliders. Looks like you are using my CPU sliders

Thanks!!!

Yup, I used yours.

I have downloaded everything as specified, but I am not getting the correct schedule. What am I missing here?

The file is is still in Pre-season and it has the correct pre-season schedule. Now, once you are in the Regular season, do the ff.

1). Save the file.
2). Open the franchise file in DB_Editor 3.0 and got SCHD table. You should see 268 entries and not 64.
3). Import the REGULAR SEASON schedule
4). Save and load the file in-game.

I am not at all familiar with the DB Editor. To import the file I click on the CSV button? When I do that and load the schedule file called DB_TEMPLATES.DAT.File00008 I get an error message and nothing seems to load.

I just did it, it works. Start the DB editor, load your franchise, take a look at the SCHD if you like to make sure you see 268 entries at the bottom.
Import/Load the Regular Season CSV and click save, you are done. Load your Franchise in Madden and you will see the correct schedule.

Whats the purpose of the practice squad? If I move them over to Free Agents, how many total free Agents can the game support?
Thanks

The practice squad team was originally included because it could allow people to do several things: Keep a practice squad (how it got its name), utilize the Injured Reserve properly (the players shouldn't count against the roster, but in Madden, they do), and allow you to potentially do a 90 man preseason (as I discovered and put in my guide.) Later we found it did allow you to have more than the normal number of free agents in a franchise, too, but there's a catch. You must go to the offseason with no players on the practice squad team, or else they won't age, and you'll have issues. But if you have more than 400-450 free agents, you'll also have issues. So... basically it's there for you to use however you want, but just be careful to keep a lot of saves in case you break something.
