OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Best Ever Roster Set in works (each franchise's best)

Just thought I would throw out there that I have begun work on a roster project that will include the best players ever from each franchise.

I started looking around for something like this, and the only thing I found was something called "Franchise Stars," which looked like exactly what I was looking for. It seemed to be nearing release and the creator ended up being banned from the board. So that was the end of that.

This set will work mostly in the same way, but I'm sparing myself all the math work, spreadsheet formulas, etc. that guy did. Simply, the players will be imported based on their best season with that team based on BPs WARP3. Potential ratings will be based on their careers from that point forward.

I will alter fielding ratings, uniform numbers, etc. down the line, but first I just want to get a set with that basic setup out there for people, rather than leaving them waiting for "perfection," which it seemed is what this other guy tried.

Anyway, 9 teams done at this point. I would like to put 2 Negro League teams in there, too, but I have to strengthen my Negro League research before it would make sense for me to do that. One step at a time.

Don't be alarmed if this isn't updated for a while...I just don't believe in posting an "update" that isn't really one.
