I can not seem to figure this out. I downloaded and saved the json then I put it in C:\Users\My Name\Documents\Wolverine Studios\DDSPF 2020\Leagues and how do i get it to work?

When you start your league, pick "use custom rosters" or whatever it's called. I believe from there pick the .json file and it should all work. Atleast I think that's how I done it. If not, let me know and I'll look into it more.

You asked the same question here: viewtopic.php?f=303&t=30822

Getting answers works best if you continue to work with one thread per issue. ;)

I sinatlled it into said directory did what you recommended but when game loads and the teams pop up they are default names not NFL names.

The json players get loaded if you use a "Custom File" when creating a league.

The NFL mod installs things like updated team names, logos, etc.

If you just want real players you can start a game using the default rosters since it contains 2019 rosters. But unless you install the NFL mod you won't get real team names and logos.

This is mostly explained in the mods forum.

I installed the NFL mod and still doesnt work. So call me a noob lol but I can not for the life of me figure it out... Please help. I have both mods NFL Mod by Tigerman which I believe are the NFL players and rosters. I put that json file as is in the league folder in C:\Users\MYNAME\Documents\Wolverine Studios\DDSPF 2020\Leagues\NFL_ALLPlayers.json

Then I used the installer for the non steam version of 2019 Real NFL Team Graphics, Names, and Schedule unzipped it to a folder and used the exe file to install it to F:\Draft Day Sports - Pro Football 2020\Data\images and still no images no real NFL teams etc. What am I doing wrong?

The NFL Player mod is just a json file that you have to use when creating a league. You check custom players and then use that file as the input. It doesn't really matter where that file goes.

The installer should put the teams and such in the right place automatically... but if not you need to change it to C:\Users\MYNAME\Documents\Wolverine Studios\DDSPF 2020 since that is where the mod picks up those files from.

I've actually had this issue as well.

After installing the NFL Mod file and start a new league, the team names are still default (i.e. Carolina Cougars instead of Carolina Panthers) but all of the team logos are correct. So while the logos installed correctly per team, I still have to go in and change each team name from the default names to the real names.

Probably need to ping the mod creator and see if something changed. I'll move this thread to the mod forum.
