4.5 Weights

By pdoug20

So I've had a PDF with the weights for version 4.5 open in a separate tab, but want to get some feedback. Is it possible to enter weights for every position before saving them?? I started to enter them and stopped to check on the ones that I already entered, only to see them disappear. I figured this might be an opportunity to finally get out of the cellar of the league because I'm tired of paying rent there!! Starting to think I own it!! LOL
Anyway, any advice on entering these weights is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

You shouldn't have to do anything to save them. Perhaps you used the back button? I have noticed if I use the back button, things like depth chart revert back to original settings.

There is a save button, but that's to save those weights for use in other leagues.

Just like a word document or excel document, it always good to save as often as possible, unfortunately there is no auto save in the player weights.

That's exactly what I did- hit the back button thinking that they would be saved only to see them revert. I got so discouraged that I didn't even bother starting over at the time. This time I'll just push through and get them done. Thanks for the tip!!

Yes, you have to complete the whole set, then save them. Never thought this was a good idea.

I always add the date to the end of the name of the saved version to be sure I am using the most recent set. Don't want to send the guys who were great in version 4.3 out onto the field today.

Once you set them, they don't need to be saved unless you're using them for multiple leagues. So if you want to do 1 or 2 positions then take a break, you don't need to do anything.

Where are you getting your weights from?

I got them from someone's post a little while back that had a link to the PDF.

I did that today, and definitely found myself shuffling my depth charts too. We'll see what happens in the next sims for each of my leagues (so far I tied my last preseason game in NCAA 2.0).

Possibly from the last post in this thread:
