Because Everyone is so sure I am BS'ing

I released the reports for the MLB to Fidel just a little bit ago. So once he sees the email, and gets them uploaded to his server, you guys will be able to see my Final MLB hitter ratings. I repeat only the Htters have gotten the final tweaks mentioned in an earlier blog entry. I am behind the schedule I wanted to keep, But that said, I should have a lot of time to work on this over the weekend and might be able to get caught up. People should also remember, my final work, the full world set that I am working on in pieces will have a hard time seeing the light of day wit me being shut out by the graphic guys. So the farther along you see me progress here, and I will reconsider my hatred of beta files if anyone reading this can convince the graphics guys to work with me still??

Slack off Tuesday... OOPS

So I only did 2 teams yesterday. I ended up watching TV last night instead of modding. But oh well, I just did the Orioles in the last few minutes, they were one of the most accurately done Lahman imported teams. Not surprsing really since they don't really have any superstar players. So Just Atlanta and Arizona to go now and it's on to the minor league hitters.

MLB Hitters are now done. It's on to the Minors

Thursday release

So October the 4th seems to be the odds on best day. I will update this post often to show if I am on schedule or not.

Big Dog Sports first release.....

The first release from Big Dog Sports will be my 2007 end of season OOTP roster set. I am proud to say that I have finally figured out how to tweak the game to get the results that I want to get from the game. The only bad thing is that it will involve having to tweak the player ratings for every single player in the game.

So Here's what's left as of right now.

1) Ratings tweaks. Since the day has started, I have done the hitters for 10 major league teams.

2) Add missing players, I am estimating this at about one week's worth of work.

3) Finally, to input my new financial system. Two days for this at the worst.

So we are very very close. I will be trying to contact Fidel Montoya in the next few days to see if his offer still stands to allow me to put up some reports for everyone to see.

I won't cycle down and relax after this, instead I will be moving right into adding a NCAA feeder league and a bunch of other leagues. Once you have seen the first release, I will really need some help with graphics. I really want to include a full set of graphics all in a common style.

Welcome

Welcome to the Birth of Big Dog Sports! Since the mods over at OOTP developments are the biggest hypocritical bastards on the planet, I will no longer be posting anything at all there. Be it conversational or any of my upcoming mods. I will from time to time pop in there to pimp this blog for any newcomers to come find me here. So why should you be interested in anything that I have to say? Because I have torn the game OOTP apart from top to bottom and my mods will have a new approach unseen anywhere else. I will not be discussing the situation over at the OOTP boards anymore. It's only on now to bigger and better things.
