Gentlemen,
Attached are some pictures from play test with MaxFB 2.0. This is the Cleveland Rams vs the Philadelphia Eagles- 1948 NFL. I'm in the first of league play.
Game Scores:
New York Giants 30 Detroit Lions 10
Washington Redskins 20 Chicago Cardinals 10
Houston Oilers 29 Baltimore Colts 21
Green Bay Packers 10 Pittsburgh Steelers 9
Cleveland Rams 23 Philadelphia Eagles 7

The last game in week 1 will be the Boston Yanks @ Chicago Bears. You might wonder about the Oilers and Colts in 1948. Well they didn't exist in 1948, but it's my game so in my league they exist.

Great stuff Old coach, except this atrocity:

Green Bay Packers 10 Pittsburgh Steelers 9

boo!

Are those jerseys long sleeved?

[Old Coach]

I've created the impression of long sleeves by modifying skin BMP's as you can see in the screenshot below. Cleveland's skin BMPs are labeled S19.skin and S20.skin in the "COMMON" folder. If Cleveland is playing at home I copy the skin BMP's with the orange sleeves from Cleveland's HOME folder and then paste them in the COMMON folder. When Cleveland is playing a road game I copy and paste the skin BMP's with the white sleeves in the COMMON folder. Philadelphia's skin BMP's are designated S23.skin and S24.skin in the COMMON folder. The uniforms look very good with the longer sleeves but the downside is that you must go in and assign the proper SKIN to each player on each team. It can be time consuming. In a 12 team league the process usn't too bad, but in a league with 30+ teams it might not be worth the time to create the long sleeve SKINS and assign them to each player.

As to the Green Bay-Pittsburgh game, the Steelers probably should have won the game. I was playing with Pittsburgh against my brother-in-law and I went for a TD on 4th & goal at the Green Bay 1 and didn't make it. My FB got stuffed at the LOS when he tried to muscle it in. It was at the end of the 1st half with the score tied at 3-3. The way my defense was playing, I felt like a TD would ice it. My placekicker missed a long FG with about 2:30 left in the game. I had chances but couldn't close the deal.

Game scoring:
2nd G.B. Fritsch 33 yd FG 3-0
2nd Pitt Shipley 31 yd FG 3-3
3rd G.B. Canadeo 1 yd run, Fritsch kick 10-3
4th Pitt Shipley 37 yd FG 10-6
4th Pitt Shipley 41 yd FG 10-9

I think a Pittsburgh fan just parked a moving van in my front yard. Oh No!!

I smell excitement in the Air! Those look great Coach, Just wondering maybe i just missed it on the post,But are you using real rosters? i cant wait for 2.0 release, i want to continue my 1980s league of 4 years now. Again real nice job coach.

Thinking to myself " I wonder how would the Chargers looked if they existed in 1948 "[:)]

[Old Coach]

Yes, I'm using real rosters that I downloaded. For example, do a search for the 1948 Chicago Bears and that will link you to all the other teams and league stats.
