Adam Thompson (NCAA Designer) Q&A Thread

[tswells]

(Asked and answered, evidently. It's awesome that it's been fixed. Disregard question!)

Hey Adam,

I have a question about Missouri's stadium, and more specifically the grass hill behind the endzone with the rock 'M'. In real life, there are fans sitting on the grass/rocks. In the NCAA series, there have never been fans sitting there. Are people sitting there in 09, or is it still empty? I know this is nitpicky, but it's weird to see the area empty in the game. Here's a picture as a reference point.



Thanks again for all the answers you have provided thus far. It makes waiting for NCAA that much more bearable.

Hey, I'm 99.9% sure that he confirmed that fans will sit on the grass and the rocks.

Thank you for the response Adam. You have really earned my respect with this thread.

About Pride Stickers, for the buckeyes, I have noticed ever since they have been included in the game is that once you fill up both sides, stickers start going on our Red/White/Black stripe down the middle. Is this because for every other team that has pride stickers may not have stripes but fill up the whole helmet?

Also, as you guys keep adding information (features and such) how are you able to fit all of the games "INSIDES" (as in code for new information in the game) onto 1 disk every year? Do you really leave that much space on the disk or do you compress code every year to allow for the new changes?

Also for rivalry trophies, the OSU/UM rivalry, what would be cool is WHEN the buckeyes win they get gold pants. And if for some weird reason Tressel and the bucks lose, UM gets whatever they get (I'm not sure what they get). It's a tradition of the rivalry.


Thanks

Hey Adam,

How difficult would it be to have a simulated sports ticker added to the presentation? It would be cool to get score updates while your'e playing a dynasty game.

Hey Adam will the OU and Texas Crowd be split correctly when you play the Red River Shootout game like this:

Have a good weekend Adam. Reading these 55 pages sure has kept me busy the last couple of days, and had a lot of my questions answered.
