Re: Adam Thompson (NCAA Designer) Q&A Thread

Has there been any word whether or not named rosters will work in Campus Legend mode? I know last year randomly generated names worked fine but you couldn't use FK's roster or your own named roster.

The work around method was to create a player on the team you would use and then take over that player in Campus Legend. You couldn't play high school games, but at least you could have the names on the rest of the roster.

It was either create or edit a lesser player (worst player on team). I forgot which one it is.

Re: Adam Thompson (NCAA Designer) Q&A Thread

Hey Adam,

I know this was kind of asked a while back, but I never saw an answer why it is so hard to get endzone art into bowl games. I am not complaining and I enjoy playing ncaa every year and am looking forward to this years version. I am just wondering if it is something that just can't be done with current stadium models and if so just I am just curious why. I hope this is a feature that can be added eventually because to me it would just add to the experience. I really do love the demo though. It definately plays better than last year. Oh by the way if for some reason you guys can't get to alamo dome next year could it be possible to just put the alamo bowl game in carrier dome or some generic dome with correct mrkings instead of outside stadium. Thanks for all the hard work

Yo Adam,

Thanks for all the Q&A. Demo rocks - can't wait til the 15th.

Are the player models this year going to make their way to 010? I'm probably wrong about this, but I figured keeping the models the same would open up a lot of art resources to implement new stuff.

Yeah. They were those headshots that made the players look like mutants.

The endzones for bowl games is certainly not trivial. The fields for every stadium are a flat texture. However, the bowl games require tech that will composite a new texture based on game logic. It isn't that it is "so hard," it is just a matter of it taking time. So we have to weigh it against other features we want in the game. It didn't make the cut this year. Same with the Alamo Bowl. We wanted Duke, Washington State, etc before the Alamo Bowl.

Re: Adam Thompson (NCAA Designer) Q&A Thread

Adam

Do you guys have a list already of things that you are looking to fix/implement via a patch? And if so, is the patch already being worked on?

As always, thanks for your time
