vojvode Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hi all, I was bugging some people for quite some time with this crazy idea of mine (the most lately DylanBradbury ), and I am willing to do whatever it takes to see this thing happening (this means consulting, maybe even donating/sponsoring... ). Here is the issue: I would REALLY like to see players progressing at the beggining of the new season depending on their performance during the previos year, taking into consideration whether they were playing in the low/high minors, or were injured for the longer period of time, or young players flaming out rushing too soon in the majors (or vice versa ) So far, the progression is defined by a random number between two delimiters, and ... nothing else! totaly RANDOM! I would like to make it counts if you level your player through the minors, storm him to the majors, or if he is a "sissy" breaking down too often. Ok, now. Since I am not all that familiar with the programming languages of any kind (but I know how to OPEN, CLOSE, COPY and PASTE the files ), I need help from someone who knows something about messing with the data. Here is the general idea that I came up with: we have those excel files that define progression, in random maner, so we need to edit those numbers there, to be in line with "something"... that "something" should come from DylanBradbury's rating generators which should use as input data, stats from, let's say "SAVREADER", or "box score extractor". Here is where I need someones programming knowledge to make those readings/input/outputs. Now, all that put in a nice batch file, and can be activated even manualy between the seasons in order to have new "performance-dependable ratings" for all the players So, I need your opinion on this idea - am I too far away from common sense, can it be done, will someone cope with it now that 2k9 is out... and does anyone really need this or ever thought about it or it's just me being hopeless Waiting for your feedback...

vojvode Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 Ok thanks anyway, I can "read between the lines" that you "don't have a clue what I'm talking about". And It tells me enough about my idea . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petep1980 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 The problem is all the good modders are working on 2k9. Maybe in time they might come back around, but I don't expect anything good for MVP to show up anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 The only things I know of which are closest to your request are the progression mods by RonMexico and billharris44. Probably not exactly what you're looking for, but might help some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
