really wish that we could get some genesis version love in here.

ah good to know. I checked against the original ram for this. So I was still a little confused as its been almost 8 years or so since I played around with this. There are 2 files , like a quick state save, and then there's a .SAV file that emulates i think the current battery save. Correct me if I'm wrong. When I was writing this in 2013 the save state for the Buffalo Bills QB was consistent to where CXROM said it was for QBBills(x7AE) The original rom in Mesen still writes to this location for the .Sav battery file that keeps the stats for a season. In the 2021 game it looks like the location changed to 027A0 (10144 decimal) with the offset in decimal staying about 208 per team. I haven't worked all the way through the stats section yet. I simmed through a whole season and was tackling the larger sets with little unit tests to make sure I had properly understood the Modifier section and use of modulus vs division. Going to make a github of the effort this go round if anyone wants to follow along. Just to kinda document the process a bit better for anyone wanting to build one out or build a better version of my work. DustinOgan/tsb-stats-extractor (github.com)

I think the work on USFL '84 has given me a framework to do a WFL one pretty smoothly--like I know I can fit the original 20 game schedule, and the 18 total clubs; it's just the graphics stuff would definitely hang me up--helmets, small helmets, and on field logos. Probably would be a dynasty rom.

The Sblueman 2020 Final Version is extremely fun & enjoyable!
