Matt, can we merge this thread with our other "Dir of hacking" thread, and then kill this one? I have to agree with Maynard here.

don't worry, dude. i'll be doing all of this kind of shit for the rest of the month. it's unofficially the repository spring cleaning time.

Don't lose anything 8)

Oh, and while I'm thinking of it, could someone finally put the hex locations of changing kickoff distance up into one of these stickied threads? I know a bunch of roms used this but it's always a bitch to find. Somehow it got overlooked from the Kicking and Punting section of the first post here.

Where's the hack that allows each team a possession in overtime in the playoffs, if the team winning the coin toss kicks a field goal on the first series?

LOL, yeah when Palmer started talking about wishing they would get rid of FGs I thought he was nuts, but now the league is actually considering this. Or did they already pass it?

And the kickoff distance isn't obscure! It's one of the few hacks I actually like and it should be in that first post. It's just an oversight.

perhaps a new topic "links to obscure hacking requests"?

No way, I say put it all in one spot! As a rookie, I can say it's a pill trying to find stuff. I'm thinking this list should be stickied at the top of the editing section.

Wait is there a way to have each team get the ball in overtime? I really would like to see it and see if I could find it in TSB3...

I think he was joking. But knowing this community, someone will figure out how to do it. Probably by the start of next season 8)

Yup - it's a rule the NFL is thinking about implementing for playoff ot. I'll post a separate thread to get some opinions...

Just take my Possession-style Overtime notes and do some editing. Everything is essentially there but needs checks added and adjusted.

Hey jstout, where was the hex for changing kickoff distance?

I'm about to start updating this--got interrupted, though. Bear with me. All original credit goes to Bruddog for being originator of this threaded Universe. I'll stick his name somewhere in the original post once I'm done. :thumbsup:

Fixed!

You're missing the "In-Game Playbook Change" hack/patch. I loaded up the Original TSB with in-game playbook hack from tecmosb's rom collection and it doesn't seem to work so I was going to fix it and send Ophish a copy. When I searched for it there is a million pages found with playbook so that's why I'm asking here. Thanks.
