NFL 2K on NFL 2K5 - 2000 Roster Release Thread

[D16NJD16]

All rosters, schedules, coaches, stadiums, and uniforms are represenative of the 2000 season. The only exceptions are Barry Sanders making his triumphant return to the Lions after coming to his senses, and injured Michael Irvin in the free agent section.

I used the original NFL 2K to create an accurate free agents list, as well as adding more players on top of that, such as veterans who could fill a roster spot, and busts from the previous 2-3 years that gave up football or went to play in the CFL.


Other Notes -


*Contracts have been edited in most cases.


*Correct player equipment for every player. I used jamd.com's gigantic archive of dated pictures for every active player in the game and assigned appropriate equipment, and believe me there were alot of edits to be made from the default 2K5 rosters, I was actually suprised at how innaccurate the equipment was, even for its time. I also did mass edits to remove all Rev helmets, which were not worn until the 2002 season.


*I upped aggression in appropriate areas but not the extremes in most roster files. I chose to just keep things playing statistically accurate for franchise. No one has 0 and few have 127.

*I had a roster management freeze problem that halted this for awhile but that has since been fixed wih puja and finns help and I've been able to do alot more work on this in the past week, doubling what I did the entire month before that.


If anyone has any suggestions, ideas, or reminders then feel free to leave them here, and I'll gladly consider anything mentioned.


Completetion Progress: 70%.

Sounds great! I can't wait to add it to my collection of rosters I know it will take a lot of work, and it will be appreciated here.
