**************************
If you find problems, please post on the forum.

*Plays (not many) created by other people are in the folder. However, they are not used in my Coaching profiles. I left them in the folder so I could use them for reference in order to see how other people create blocking schemes.*

I have included a Coaching Information "Guide" that
may be helpful when playing or coaching against the computer.

I have also included Team Profiles for each coach. I not sure if they work
perfectly yet, but they are a start.

Nice work. The team profiles work.

But Coach Allen has no defensive plays so that you can not choose this playbook for any team.

that's correct about Coach Allen. some of the coaching profiles are only names and contain nothing in them.

Smith, Williams, and Wilson are working, but still need to be re-built and upgraded. This is a future project for me.

Allen, Moyer, Jackson, Jones, Davis Jr. are empty.

The rebuilt ones for this release are Brown, Miller, and Goode.

Thanks Hack. These are excellent, as usual.

Oh, wanted to ask if Smith had been updated? Can't recall if it has.

The changes are phenomenal as far as the running game is concerned - I actually have to tweak my constants.dat file again to accomodate the vastly superior YPC stats I am getting with these new books.  There are some very very nice play action additions I noted as well. 
 
The CPU is playing a little more aggressively too, from what I've seen.  That's really the only thing that I've tweaked in the prior books is the run/pass ratio and some play selections on 3rd downs - I just make the CPU a little more aggressive in going for the sticks when they are trailing or tied in the game.
 
These custom playbooks have really been saving the game for me from the beginning - if not for the books the community has provided over the years since the initial release, I'd have definitely moved on long ago.
