DDSCB2018 2016-17 Season mod Released!

Postby NCAAhoops » Fri Mar 02, 2018 10:52 pm

NOTICE!
This mod has been moved to the DDS College Basketball 2018 Mods

I am happy to announce the release of the 2016-17 season mod at the link below. Please read the instruction.pdf that will be in your "DDSCB2018\Imports\ folder". It will explain how to load the new mod and also stored in the Import folder is an "Extras" folder with more logos and courts. I placed them there as they would overwrite some other mod files and I leave it up to you to choose. There is a readme about the files is there as well.

What's included? (There are screen shots in the forums)
Conferences: Conference names, logos, with logos adjusted to be seen better in game screen.
Teams: Team names, team logos, team colors, abbreviations, arena's, and prestige.
Coaches: Real names, real ages, ratings, headshot pictures (if Bloomington updates his mod with coaches these would show up for it as well)
Tournaments: New logos, 15 new tournament courts. (reinvented the wheel with the courts but did not want to include someone else's work in the installer as my tournaments are named differently)

This does not overwrite any Wolverines Studios, Bloomington's mod, or any or mod that I am aware and they work separately.
Please read the instructions, but to take a quick look, Create a new Association then click "Customize Association" button. Check the "IMPORT ROSTER FILE" button and steer the requestor to the "Import" folder in your game folder. Usually C: Wolverine Studios\DDSCB\Imports. The import folder is in the Main game folder. From there proceed as normal and create your coach and choose your job. If you read the instructions it will show you how to modify the Tournaments so those logos and courts appear as well.

Hope you like it.
If so let me know and I'll continue into 2017-18 mod at the end of the season. I'm adding every 2017-17 player to this mod as a separate release later this month.

March madness has begun!

I cannot get the installer to work for me. Maybe because I have no import folder in that directory. In the pro version it is in the setup folder but I cannot find it in the college version.

When the gray box titled "InstallConstruct" pops up and I hit ok...the box disappears but nothing else happens.

It is possible that I am missing something but the instructions were pretty simple.

So the fist small screen pops up and the screen after that should have a "NEXT" button, from what I see you never get to that screen? The Import folder should not matter as its created if not present.
I'll look into it today. My assumption is it could not find the game install directory in the registry. I don't think it should have exited but it may. If I don't figure it out right away I'll get it to you in a zip folder later today.

Forgot to ask, did you try right clicking on the installer icon and choose run as Administrator?

Downloaded and antivirus removed it, said it contained virus.

There is no virus, what virus program do you use? I have AVG and just ran a scan of the file to be sure. Anyone else had this pop up?

Yes, mine was detected by Bitdefender and moved to quarantine. I restored it from the quarantine and it did work after that. Its extremely common that unknown EXE files will generate a virus software issue since many scanners error on the side of caution and if the file is not well known, usually their generic tracker will mark it as an issue. Each person has to decide for themselves if they want to use these types of files, you can also have your scanner exclude them if you trust it. Most times these are false positives but again everyone needs to decide what risk they are willing to take.

Thanks slybelle1, I was about to pull it off download. I have the same issues with AVG but I didn't with this installer but its probably because it was create on my PC.

HerbD I sent you a PM with a modified installer. It defaults to C:Wolverine Studios\DDSCB2018\ for the install if you installed DDSCB2018 some place else you'll have to steer the installer there.
Let me know if not I'll zip them up for you.
