Madden 2005 Problem

TheRealMovieman · 05-03-2006, 01:19 AM

Yes, I know I'm behind the times but I've built up a great franchise (I'm in year 19).

I'm in the fourth week of the pre-season but for some reason, one game will not simulate (tried all the options including "Simulate Preseason"). It also will not let me play the game either. I backed out (saving) and loaded the franchise again, still won't work. I noticed that througout this preseason when I used the "Simulate Week" option (after playing my game), it would simulate a couple of them, then stop. I do it again and it would finish the rest.

Also, I just noticed that when I use the select button and it brings up the "Overall Record", "Points/Game", etc. The one team just shows "n/a" for all these stats. I checked with this same team going back to week 1 and it's the same. Looks like something messed up in the simulation from the start for some reason.

I'd hate to lose all these stats but perhaps it's time to get Madden '07 when it comes out...

I think that happens at times when you're deep in a franchise.

But as for the unsimmed game, make sure you didn't accidently select that team as to be ran by you.

If you did, there might be a roster problem with them, or a cap problem

Yeah, I kind of figured. I wonder, has anyone gone through the 30 seasons you're supposed to be able to go through?

I'll check the other thing before deleting the file and starting over.

Thanks RBM

^ Go away, I have Madden 2006, the basics of each doesn't change, just new features are added.

If you have a problem like this in one, it's likely to occur in another.

The longest I've had a franchise was 21 seasons, Mike Vick was my head coach, Jerome Bettis my offensive Coordinator, Ray Lewis my D Co, and Tom Tupa for Special Teams
