I see that in Formations list is listed "WIshbone", but I see no plays. Is this just a formation now available which we can use to create custom plays?

Yes, feel free to test them out and share in the mods forum.

I tried copying the plays.xml file from the college game and I put it in as a mod for 21 and it seemed to work. All the wishbone and option plays showed up in the playbook although I haven't tried playing any games with it yet. So is this something we can do now?

May be easier to take the wishbone plays and insert them into your options page for custom plays (or add them to the existing plays.xml) so that you can preserve the existing plays we have for the pro game.

Brooks whats the best way to do this? Open the plays.xml file in college in notepad and physically copy over the wishbone plays to the pro 2021 plays.xml file also open in a notepad? Is there an easier/cleaner way to do this?

I would try opening the college plays.xml and copy the wishbone plays into the League Options - Custom Plays XML box... it should combine that with the default plays.xml file.

Okay so in the "Custom Plays XML" box I have this -

<Playbooks>
<Playbook Name="Custom" Type="Offense">
<Plays>
<Play Freq="5" Formation="WishBone" Name="Power Dive" Type="Run" OffScheme="Power" RunPref ="Inside" BaseForm ="true">
<Slot ID="0" Action="QB">
<Path>
<Action Type="Dive" />
</Path>
</Slot>
<Slot ID="1" Pct="50">
<Path>
<Action Type="Dive" />
</Path>
</Slot>
<Slot ID="2" Pct="10">
<Path>
<Action Type="Run Block Center" />
</Path>
</Slot>
<Slot ID="3" Pct="50">
<Path>
<Action Type="Dive" />
</Path>
</Slot>
<Slot ID="4">

<Action Type="Run Block Center" />
</Path>
</Slot>
<Slot ID="5">

<Slot ID="6">

<Slot ID="7">

<Slot ID="8">

</Slot>
<Slot ID="9">

<Action Type="Run Block Left" />
</Path>
</Slot>
<Slot ID="10">
<Path>
<Action Type="Run Block Left" />
</Path>
</Slot>
</Play>

</Plays>
</Playbook>
<Playbook Name="Custom" Type="Defense">
<Plays>


</Plays>
</Playbook>
</Playbooks>

Then Click "Submit" button in lower left and this Wishbone play should now be available as a play to add to custom playbooks, correct?
I click submit, I get a pop up "Players Updated", but when I go to customize a playbook and add a wishbone play, I don't see it there.

I added that to my field, then saved the game and reloaded and it worked. I'll try and fix it in a future patch so the close/reload isn't required.

So do the default plays in PF21 also exist in CF20? I was under the impression they were the mostly the same. I did notice that the PA plays were new in PF21 and I was able to preserve those. But it appeared to me that every other default play existed in both games. My goal is to combine all the plays from both games along with anything that modders might come up with into one large XML file and use it in both games.
