I have been trying to modify Tigerman's player file to update the contracts and the drafted year information for all players. Having said that, I don't know how to get the information back into JSON format (there are, apparently, several versions of this). I am not a JAVA Script writer, so this is something I would have to learn. I'd rather have someone guide me to where I need to get the specific information instead of the general "search the internet" or "go to this website and read this."

The bottom line is that I am trying to test my work and will not be able to do so if I can't get the files back into JSON format. I have tried to contact Tigerman but have had no luck.

Try this.

You never told me anything about converting the file Sean.

I sent you a PM on Jan 23rd. It's all good. I've found a way to work it.

Basically, I took your file as a base layer, then found all the Madden 19 launch date player ratings in spreadsheet format and took only those attributes that had a direct transfer to DDSPF. I am unable to include draft information because the original file you created was prospect-based. If I wanted to do a new file with all new players, I could change draft info, but that would take even longer...so, I am scrapping the draft info. But, I am inputting all current salary information from Spotrac.com, using their 2018 salary year forward, dividing the total cap hit by years to get a "yearly" salary.

It will take me 3 - 4 weeks to get all of this done because I'm doing it all in CSV and then writing it to JSON (again, using yours as a base layer) and then checking the line-by-line of the JSON for the one item I have to do by hand since I'm updating all attributes. It will still be worth it.

Let me know what you think...

Thanks!

It ended up not working for me. But I found one online that does...only that I have to go through the code line-by-line to make a simple edit to each line for it to be read properly by the program. Still, I appreciate the help!
