So I played the demo and really like the game and just purchased it. However, unlike the demo, when I create my game, I followed what the instructions said, and when I go into my roster there are no players? The demo had real players? I did CPU Generated, and then the only two choices at the bottom are "start with creation draft" or "auto draft". Obviously missing something here and looking for help?

Update - I did do the "auto draft, start with free agency" and there are now at least fictional players on my roster. If that's how I need to start each new game, that's fine. Just figured I was missing something during the setup?

The demo did not have real players unless you downloaded gbmoore's NFL Quick Start mod.

When I downloaded try demo, all the real players were there? I just deleted the game and re-installed, and again, when I create a new game, if I do CPU created, start with creation draft, I understand there are no players on any rosters, and apparently we work through how ever many rounds there are to fill our rosters. If I do CPU Generated, and then auto draft, players do show up on my roster, but are fictional? Is this basically, the way a new game starts, and then at some point through modding, we can download the real players?

Maybe thinking of another game?
