Thanks for the explanation. This is why I was asking earlier if anyone had written up what the parameters mean. Without some sort of guide, all one can do is change numbers & try to see what happens. Which in the long run is about all you can do anyway. I'll give these values a try.

<t> Well, I seem to be drawn back to 8-man; probably because it's simpler.<br/>

Set up a new league using 100-yd outdoor field, 7 min. quarters.<br/>

Started with the simgame.dat values mbsports supplied & started messing with some of the values. I <br/>
got it to where the rushing ...

<t> Played a game on an outdoor grass field, in the rain. At the end of the game, only a couple of players on each team had dirty unis; the rest looked like they'd just stepped out of the locker room. <br/>
<br/>
This is not a huge deal; I was just wondering if it's a shortcoming in the game or ...

As a followup, I changed the shadow detail down to normal & that solved the outline problem since it's now just black circles under the players, which I like better anyway.

You're right - changing the player detail to normal restored the numbers. Unfortunately, it also caused most of the player shadows to be outlined in white so I'll probably stick with no yard&nbsp; numbers. But thank you.

<t> After playing with the game for a month or so, it finally dawned on me that I'm not seeing the white yardage numbers on the fields. This is true for 50-yd, 100-yd, and Canadian fields. I do see the little red sideline yardage markers on the big fields and wouldn't expect to on the 50-yd fields ...

<t> mbsports' sim tweaks didn't seem to have any effect on an 8-man game on the outdoor field. However, I reset the league to a 50 yd field with unlimited motion, still using (half of) my playbook & stock defenses.<br/>

Week 1 - Sim scores: 20-18, 27-16, 27-12. I won my game 66-33.<br ...

<t> I guess my frustration is in the fact that if I can score lots of points against an opponent when calling my own plays, I would have thought that even when the computer is randomly calling plays, the law of averages would dictate at least some scoring.<br/>

I'm going to try and stick ...

<t> I set up an 8 team league, 8-man, American outdoor field, 10 min. quarters.<br/>
20 man rosters, no unlimited motion, injuries & fatigue turned off. <br/>
