No, it should still work.

Wanted to port my questions over here in case Adam checks this first.

Couple questions.
1) Nevermind, been answered

2) How were hook zones tweaked? Players just dont drop as deep?

3) How were WR screens fixed?

4) So no more ghost juking? (players running out of bounds for no reason)

5) Do kickoffs include punts (punt coverage fixed?)

6) The slider issue....so it is fixed so that HUm sliders control HUM and CPU controls CPU, right? Also, what about the effectiveness, can you have someone try what fistofrage suggested. Turn Pass Block to 0 and see how it works vs being at 100? Id like to see the degree of difference.

If that (sliders) are fixed and work right, that will fix the only thing not addressed here, the pass rush.....

Thanks again Adam

OMT, I've edited all the BCS conferences. Players, equiptments and such. Will the patch delete those edits and turn it back to default?

Just to clarify, the list of fixes posted at the beginning of this thread is the full list of issues that are being addressed for each patch, correct?

[callmetaternuts]

It is the proposed fixes, and the roster glitch is in patch 1. Unless Adam has any other info (and can answer the questions), the list on page 1 is all we know

Hey everyone, this is Craig. I'm the Stadium Sounds programmer for NCAA. I also worked on Mascot mode, the new loading screens, the PS3 demo, and the PS3 patches.

After talking to Adam the other night at the Madden party, I wanted to stop in and clarify some info about the patch notes.

First off, these patch notes were written in regards to what will be patched on the PS3 (the 360 doesn't do patch notes). The 360 patch will still have the fix so that your sounds play even if you are controlling the home team. This isn't included in the PS3 notes, because the issue didn't occur on PS3 to begin with, so there is nothing to patch.

From the looks of it, the change to the "All" option needs some clarification also. To put it simply, with this change if you have a specific team it will play as long as that team is at home (regardless of user control). If you have the "All" option it will only play if the user is controller the home team at the home stadium.

Examples:
Custom Sound Home Team: Air Force
Home Team: Air Force
Stadium: Air Force stadium
Sound will play? Yes, no matter what controller the user is

Custom Sound Home Team: Florida
Home Team: Florida
Stadium: Clemson stadium
Sound will play? No, because the home team is not at their stadium

Custom Sound Home Team: All
Home Team: Ohio State
Stadium: Ohio State stadium
Sound will play? Only if the user is playing as Ohio State

I'm not gonna be on here (during work hours at least) as much as OMT or some of the other guys, but feel free to shoot me any questions.

PS. I also worked on the coolest-new-feature-no-one-talks-about: the freaking sweet animated icon and background image when you highlight the disc on PS3. Seriously, take a look at it next time you boot up the console

thanks for posting the info Craig, is there anyway we can have more than 50 custom stadium sounds at one time for NCAA 2010?

And there it is. Like we've been saying, the PS3 version doesn't have this issue.

Thanks a lot for the info Craig!

It's something I'm looking into for oh-ten. This year we had enough room for 2 full teams worth of events + a few extras. The plan is to add even more events, but we still want to maintain at least 2 full teams + a few extras. Unfortunately it isn't as simple as changing "max = 50" to "max = 100" - that extra 50 events worth of memory has to come from somewhere...

I'm also looking into adding more options for the Home Team to provide a little more flexibility. Stuff like "All Bowl Games", "All ACC Teams", "Away Team is Rival", etc. The fun part there of course is what takes priority over what?
